Miss Senkafa is a little-known but growing star. She's beautiful, a good singer, and Sunny Afroflash is something different from the usual drivel that plays in places like ... this.

Okay, so why are Horizan keeping her under raps?
Jack shares the info he has with the network, and starts to search any info on the girl on the matrix. |

An Shui looks to the information forwarded by the face then to the fixer, "Indeed. What is her secret?"

Sure would be nice if she were playing a gig or making some sort of public appearance this week...

Whisper looks around, "my question still stands... do they want us to take her, or do they just want to talk to her? One is easy, the other is not."

Horizon is not holding her there against her will, but they certainly aren't objecting to her wanting to stay there. Her being part Xhosa, I'm sure that they don't want to piss off the Rain Queen by not letting her leave. But they do consider her a potential hot commodity and the whole Sunny Afroflash scene is small, but growing. This would put it on the map, and Horizon would be the first to have it. And Whisper, the job is to get her off the property and then contact me. I will arrange a meeting so her parents can try to talk some sense into her one last time. Then, if she wants to go back, she goes back. Ophis [ Spoiler ]

An Shui mulls over the fixer's response. "The money seems extremely high just to mediate a conversation, but let me not be the one to question reason where being a parent is a primary factor."
<<@Team [An Shui] I agree. If you cannot take an opponent unprepared, then take them where they are most vulnerable. A concert or performance would provide a much needed level of chaos. Also, there is obviously more here than is being revealed but perhaps this in information that our fixer does not have..?>> |

A concert will be the time and place with the most security. We need to skin the mouse. Anyway, planning should not be done at the negotiating table.

<<@Team [An Shui] I am less worried about the amount of security than the effectiveness of that security, but I am not yet convinced of any specific time or place for the extraction. Let us take our leave and meet in a less.... boisterous location.>>

Ruff continues to scan the area around them.
Yes let us go a much less ribald location, maybe one that has a good cup of Rooibos and Honeybush tea. |

An Shui rises, bowing to the team's fixer. "Thank you for this opportunity." He moves away from the table, waiting for his team mates to do the same before beginning to work through the crowd.

"All right. We'll be in touch," says Ukhetshe as he rises from the table, making his exit.

As the others begin to rise, Bunny pushes herself casually upright and slips, quickly to the exit.
She loiters in the bracing downpour just outside the club. As she waits for the rest to catch her up she turns slowly on the spot, chin lifted skywards, letting the rain wash the grime and the Club's emotional ick from her face. The teams PAN starts to bristle with data about sightlines, cover, structural integrity, possible sources of attack. She marks windows, rooftops, alleyways, odd heat signatures and suspect chunks of metal and cyberware. |

Ruff rises with the rest of the team.
I wonder if the rain is still coming down outside, hmm will check the Weather AR Talk to you later he says to Dr. D. Ruff opens a popup window to see the local weather via AR. He walks out of the establishment, waits underneath the awning to look around and waits for the others. |

Jack pauses to exchange a few, brief friendly words with the Doc, then he heads outside.
So given the weather we're not discussing this in a park. How about a bit of pizza to aid the mind? Jack sends the team the address of a local pizza place. |

An Shui looks to Jack as the team migrates out. "Pizza? Excellent." The ork provides a half-smile at the mention of food, though in appearances his smile is usually more frightening than comforting.

Ruff listens to Jacks suggestion about pizza.
Pizza? Sure sounds ok by me. Anyone have a place in mind? Ruff looks around the area carefully while waiting for the others to gather or answer. I came by cab due the weather ie rain made riding my motorcycle abit hazardous, do we need to share a cab for pizza, or can someone give me a ride to the pizza? |

Wednesday, February 5, 2070. 20:50 pm. The Meet Market (the meet table)
Seeing as the job has been offered, and his part being done for now, Dr. Delicious stands up and looks around. Most excellent. Now, once you get her, send me a message. I'll get back to you from there. Now, if you'll excuse me, he turns toward the dance floor/cesspool. I think I need a dance before I go to bed. The A.R. weather report is saying the storm is getting slightly worse, raining harder. But it is expected to clear up by sunrise. Not at midnight as previously thought. Ophis [ Spoiler ] |

An Shui accompanies the rest of the team to Johann Shultz's Chinese Dim Sum and Pizzeria.
<<@Team [An Shui] What do we know about corp? For that matter, what do we know about the girl?>> |

Bunny plonks herself down in the booth, back to the wall, and pings the waitress with an order for several assorted Pizza's and drinks before settling down to create a tactical map of the restaurant and plan her escape routes.
Well, Horizon's a triple-A so I'd rather not do anything on their turf. They're masters of the media and spin so we better be prepared to get caught on camera and to avoid doing anything they can spin to make us look bad. We'll be Heroes or Villains instantly, better Heroes and better mysterious and unidentified. |

Wednesday, February 5, 2070. 21:15 pm. Johann Shultz's Chinese Dim Sum and Pizzeria (party booth)
Ruff smiles as he enters the pizzeria, stops abit out of the line of persons entering and leaving. He takes a long slow breath, seems to be lost in sensations briefly. Ah yes the smells are great in here Ruff smiles broadly after a few minutes, then walks over to the booth and sits down. He chose a seat where he can see most of the pizzeria. Via AR he scans the menu. Rooibos please, hot no sweeteners, or creamers. A slice of soy pepperoni with mushrooms, a cheong fun with soy pork, and phoenix talons Ruff will look at his team mates We need more information, before more detailed plans can be discussed. Ruffs keep is eyes roving around the pizzeria. |

The crowd seems better here than in the Meet Market, and the atmosphere feels cleaner. Then again, most sewage plants would fit this as well. The music is a happier music style, the people better clothed and more relaxed. Families are here eating. From alla ppearances, nobody seems to even care about your presence. Just another bunch of friends out, they're probably thinking. Well, actually, there is one person that cares. An African dwarf man comes to the booth, wearing a uniform and an AR nametag identifies him as Ming. More importantly, he is carrying your orders, including several varieties of pizza. It is almost funny how he is carrying food taller than him, but he is managing and clearly has done it before. Here's your pizzas and cheon fun. Did you want your rooibos as red tea, red latte, or red cappuccino? For those that care about what rooibos is: [ Spoiler ]

Ukhetshe walks in a bit late. He sits down and scans the room from behind his shades, waiting for his maize pizza and rooibos, which he ordered on the way over, to hit the table.
