Ok, I figure that its time to introduce some weirdness into my not-quite-Shadowrun campaign by running an Alternity adventure I have dealing with cross-dimensional travel gone wrong (Ala "Sliders"), but the problem is that I'm not sure why a mega would hire a group of Runners to handle the situation instead of sending in one of their own corp teams given the extra sensitive nature of the operation...

I suppose if nothing else I could pull the old double-agent angle, where the Runners were hired by Mr J and inserted into the corp to find out what was going on and steal/sabotage the project, but that sounds kind-of forced to my ears so I'm hoping for a better idea.
