ZION satisfied on the terms reaches for the datachip to download the info onto his COM then place it back onto the table for the others to use.

whilte looking at the data Zion thinks to himself"if we run into anything on the edge of Tir besides johnsons agent i dont think anyone is going to want do pick it up" a slight smirk runs accross his face while thinking about what they could run across on one simple run to the boarder while looking at the files on the datachip.

Cynic nodded.

"Don't you worry bout us Ms. J. We'll be there on time."

The young mage looked around at the other runners, his fingers busy tapping out a quick message.

Okay, we'll need to arrange a place to meet prior to heading out, sooner rather than later in order to co-ordinate contingency plans. I'm a completely urbanized mage so no one ought to rely on me to work our way across the border but I'm willing to provide magical support if necessary. I need a few hours to pull up some elemental support though.

<I've made a run or two into Tir to pick up [Deleted]...not the best guide but, i've been down that way> DJ taps out his reply.

reads the text momentarily jotting down a quick response.<how about we meet up at one of the clubs on along 161 easy to find? i might know a place. Its public but will not attract unwanted attention.>

Cynic scans the messages glowing softly in his vision, scrolling their way to oblivion, then adds another one of his own.

Someone name a place to meet then, I know Puyallup and could probably find us a place their if necessary. DJ what vehicle are we looking for? Truck, car, chopper? I'm going to pull up some elemental assistance and if we're going to be flying then at least I'll know what to call. If we're going via land transport then I'll have to think it over.

Zion looks to the Johnson "i have no further questions ma' am" he then tags his next message with his LTG number where he can be held to all the other runners in the room <LTG#-661-858-6659 you all can reach me at this number, i know a place called "Forbidden City" its located at 1402 E Main, Puyallup. I have some equipment i need to pick up as well as acquire if you guys want to meet up there it sounds like a nice place.> Zion nods to the johnson and starts out of the backroom.

[Redjack]

Ms Johnson nods to the team, stands up and says, "Great. I'll contact Kilroy. The room is yours for as long as you need it." She then heads out the door leaving the four of you to talk amongst yourselves.

"Thanks. You'll hear from us tomorrow."

< [Aeryn] How the heck should we get a copter and the necessary clearance to use it here? Land transport... of course. Some kind of van or pickup, which can handle the cargo. I can check with my contacts if something is available for a reasonable price. >

[Cedric Rolfsson]

Saturday March 1, 2070 Mall Office

Cynic represses a snort.

<Aeryn> you talk like I know how hard it is to get a clearance for an aircraft to leave the plex. Hell, I've never ridden in any kind of vehicle that had a clearance to leave the plex. Every time I've gone over the wall it's been illegal, and two out of five have been in a helicopter, once in an LAV. I work the magic and figure the drivers decide which vehicle to use. I'll assume we won't be flying then. I thought I'd ask rather than assume.

The young mage downloaded the data from the datachip to his commlink and nodded at the Johnson.

"See ya then Ms. J."

He bobbed his head in the direction of the other runners and stood slowly.

<ALL> I'll beam ya'll my commcode, what time are we meeting? I have no clue how long it'll take to get out of the plex and across three national boarders, some of which aren't going to be too friendly. Don't we have to cross the Columbia to get into the Tir? Are we going to need a boat or something? I don't swim well, I'll say that up front, so no scuba nonsense unless one of you guys is planning on dragging me.

If we head southeast towards Hermiston on I-82 into Salish territory and cut across into the Tir down there we'll be able to cross the river at an internal checkpoint rather than busting a boarder but I have no idea how hard it is to get from Salish lands into the Tir. We should plan on leaving plenty early to deal with any problems but I don't want to be hanging out at the target site for too long. If you guys want I'll run a quick astral scout of the area too.

The former ganger tacked on his commcode to the last message so he'd be easy to reach.

Zion opens the door for the Ms. Johnson while on his way out, pausing for a moment slightly turning before heading out the door speaking to team "ill see you guys in about a hour and a half at the club?" waiting for a response from most the team before he continues out the door and toward his bike.

"Ok, see you!"

< [Aeryn] I wouldn't want test our luck too hard. Flying is obvious, crafts get tracked, especially near big cities, and if the craft isn't properly registered, at least temporarily, chances are good that someone will investigate further. Not exactly what we need. >

Zion starts to make a call to his transporter when he is able to get a decent signal and ask's about arranging for a few vehicle's and a boat for border crossings. he also asks his contact if they know any coyotes that could get them out of seattle heading south if vehicles aren't a option.

As you exit the briefing room and return to the front room of the Mall Office your com link coms alive as it reconnects to the grid. After a few beeps The Transporter answers your call: <[T] Zion... Talk to me.>

<T hows life borther? i am looking to move something south and need a few vehicles including a boat, and i need it in like less then seven hours, if i cant get anything that quick know anyone willing to break some borders who has air transport, i was also wondering if you knew any coyotes that worked on the southern routes of the city that could extract me and a few others out of seattle and then back in a few hours later? if you can muster up the equipment and contact i can give you locations for a rendezvous .>

Zion then texts the team he left in the back room <@all im working on a few rides for us south and maybe a coyote to get us past some of the borders ill keep you all posted if i hear anything before we meet up at forbidden>

< [Aeryn] We'll just need a van, we will cross the border by foot. As for leaving Seattle, I know the routes here, so don't worry 'bout that. >

After sending the message, Aeryn calls up her map of the city region on AR and starts to think about some possible routes they could take. In the meantime, she gets out of the room and back to the bar area.

Saturday March 1, 2070 20:38 Crime Mall

Cynic looked at the last message and wanted to shake his head.

Foot transport through the Tir wilderness? Oh frag me! The most green I've ever touched came out of a small plastic baggie and got rolled up and smoked promptly. I'm not sure I want to face the wilderness on foot, but if I am then I've got some stuff to pick up before I leave.

He headed back towards his where his bike was parked, moving with focused intensity now that he had a job and time was a factor. As he moved he placed a quick call to Viggo, and as usual got a message dump.

"Hoi, Viggo I need to get some basic gear, nothing restricted or anything but I may not have time to gather it all and was wondering if you could. Basic wilderness survival pack with a bunch of ration bars that won't make me puke. Tent, thermal blanket, survival knife that kinda drek, most of the stuff you'll have on hand I'm betting. Can you put it all together in the smallest backpack you can fit it in and call me with a price? Laterz guy."

He terminated the call and then figured he'd see if maybe Dutch had any info that might help him handle this gig. This time a quick email.

Dutch, hey chummer I wanted to pick your brain for a bit, if you've got a couple of minutes, mostly just background stuff that ought to be right up your alley. Give me a buzz when you've got a couple of minutes to talk.

With the process started he headed back to his doss and his summoning circle to whistle up some backup.

Zion getting to his bike corrects himself after glimpsing at the message, <@ T actually brother if you could carry a team of five and 45 kg in the back on rough terrain that would be awesome, or a off road vehicle that did the same.>

<@Zion [T] Chummer, you must have mistaken me for someone who leaves the safety of the metro. You need transport around the metro, I can hook you up. Outside the metro is outside my zone. I know a coyote who works the border and could hook you up with introductions.... for a transport fee?>

Aeryn
Cynic and DJ are the only team members left in the room when you transmit the message, however when you cross the threshold into from the back room into the Office bar your com comes to life and you are in PAN range of Zion again.
Review of the map shows several possible border cross points into the Salishe that you are familiar with:
- The first requires crossing through Hell's Kitchen. The terrain is horrid, the air worse and the locals just plain mean. On the plus side, its security rating Z and border patrols are minimal.
- The second is crossing through Tarislar. Again security rating Z, but dealing with the LAÉSA is a situation all unto itself.
- You could always cross Puget Sound and take the long way around, though you are least familiar with.

Cynic
Into the bar proper and heading for the door, your messages fly off into the matrix as your com reconnects. The ork at the door is still there watching as your team makes their way through the bar for the door. His eyes hidden behind his mirrored shades, his MP-5 resting in his hands as he stands almost as a statue.

There is no immediate response to your messages, but you barely know Dutch and Viggo rarely answers your call directly.

Realising, that Zion wouldn't have gotten her message, Aeryn forwards them to him, after leaving the room.

< [Aeryn] I've taken a look at the map and there are three routes I can offer you for now... two of them go right through the nicest parts of town, we'd need to keep our guns ready there, but border patrols are... unlikely; the third is probably easier, but also longer and I havn't been down there yet... could make a run by bike though, while we're waiting for the package. >

Zion receiving Aeryn's message replies to T <sorry chummer thought you would be able to hook me up with a carrier is all, as for the coyote thats a no go i was just informed we already have that taken care of, thanks for the time though brother.> as Zion is talking to T he slots a 100 nuyen towards T for his time.

Zion then reads the message about Aeryn wanting him to recon while they wait for the meet to pick up the package he thinks about where the meet is<thats fine all we have to do is find a place on our way out of seattle to meet up that i can store my ride while we are gone which shouldnt be a problem, send me a plan of where the route goes and ill check out how doable it is. by the way its was a bust on me getting a truck or van from my contact, can you guys get something before the meet?>

Zion starts his bike up letting the bike idol for a moment before taking off toward the fastest way to his house to pick up his vest and other weapons also pack up a few things for out doors like a coat and stalking cap. being march in seattle its still cold and wet.

what are we going to get to haul the cargo, i need to contact Kilroy and see if he can rent me a suitable transport.

Zion calls Aeryn<hello ma' am if you run into any hickups give me a call ill see what i can do. also could you send me a file with the route you would like to scout, i can run with you to make sure you dont run into any problems?>

[Syndicate_killer]

DJ exits the room and makes a point to smile at the waitress. Time to pick up some extra rounds for the pistol and do a tune up on the bike...just the small stuff like oil and seal checks...

< [Aeryn] Sure. Might be worth it to see what's along that route, and it will be safer that way. But let me first see, if I can get some wheels for our package, otherwise we have that to worry about still. >

< [Attachment] Seattle map sector with highlighted route. >

Aeryn then calls up Mike to ask if he has something suitable available she could rent for a day.
