As ducks and feels the bullet pass through the hair on the back of his neck, Collateral whips out his pistol and puts a random shot towards the gangers. Aeryn and Zion simply duck and accelerate while Cynic slightly gestures towards one of the gangers, a third leaning out from one of the bikes to get a shot. A fourth ganger then takes a shot at fleeing team. Collateral feels the shot punch into the flap of his armor jacket, ineffective.

The team pulls up to the front entrance. The gate is closed, but the old man is visible sitting at the booth. Beyond the gate the lot loots pretty much the same as the night before: a parking lot, three quarters filled with cars, trucks, vans and bikes. You estimate there are some 60 parking spots on the lot.
Across the street, the bar seems to have died down to all but the quiet, die-hard crowd. A pair are smoking a cigarette off to the left of the front door and some half a dozen rice-rockets are still in front of the joint.
As you pull up the old man slides open his little window and turns on a small light on the counter outside the booth.

The suburban starts right on queue and exits the spot precisely, the pilot program working perfectly. It rolls to the entrance and silently comes to a stop, its hybrid engine only engaging electric to this point.
Working quickly, Aeryn's bike is placed in the back, on its side by the muscular ork and elven street sam. It fills most of the cargo area. The gangers do not appear to have given pursuit, perhaps the team has dodged those bullets..?

Cynic looked at the SUV and watches for a second as the team's heavy lifters start working Aeryn's bike into the back. It looked like there'd be enough room for him and whatever they were to pick up. As the dynamic duo sweated and cursed he slipped his bike into an open spot inside and transfered a quick 60 for a couple days of parking fees.
He got back to the SUV just as everyone else was finishing up. He caught Zion's last comment and then opened the passenger side door to the SUV.
"Aeryn," Cynic said, "I figure it'd be easier if I rode with you rather than drive myself. I'm not that good on a bike and doing heavy mojo and trying to control a bike is usually beyond my skill set. Sides, at least this way we'll have two team members together at all times, if you're okay with me riding along."

Aeryn
It takes your drone a little over 30 seconds at its top speed to make it to the side street. There are four gangers, one of whom is unconscious and being attended to one of the others. The other two are hunkered down one facing either direction, using the bikes as cover. They appear to be expecting the team to return to finish them.
Satyr
The duo standing outside the bar have definitely taken notice of the foursome and the vehicle. They do not appear to have much reaction at this time beyond disinterest, however.
Collateral
Your tooth brush is definitely missing. The travel size toothpaste is there, but no brush.
Cynic
The old man at the window slides a keypad out to you. The intent is that you enter a key-code. Once complete, he prints out a paper receipt (yes paper).

Looking down at the keypad in front of him, Collateral quickly selects by the day, and then two days. After thinking for a moment, he keys in a passcode, and transfers the appropriate funds via his commlink, making a mental note so he can get the money back from Aeryn later. He wheels her bike slowly into the appropriate parking spot, and then heads back out of the lot. He swings one leg over the side of his bike, fires it up with a mental command, and roars out of the front gate of anytime parking. He brings up a map in his cybervision, with a dot showing where Zion and the van are, and their most likely future route. They're moving fast. It's gonna be difficult to catch up. He accellerates his bike up to top speed, racing after his compatriots.

Aeryn, Zion & Cynic
Aeryn headed the suburban west out of the parking lot, then north on 12th Street. Once at Stewart Avenue, she jogs back to the East one block before continuing north on 11th Street. Once at River Road (Hwy-167) she again turns east; Hwy-167 being her chosen route out of the Puyallup Barrens, through Auburn and into Renton. Zion follows as the trio make time away from the gangers and towards their next milestone.

Aeryn's bike parked, you run back to your hog and fire it up. The wonder of modern technology you connect a call to Aeryn over the LTG and her location lights up, GPS transponder active. Yes she's making good time out of the district, avoiding the gangers. Good call.
As you rumble out down the road and along her path, your luck runs out. Heading north up 12th street you pass three gangers racing south; The rumble of your Harley contrasting the whine of their Japanese racing bikes. Looking in the rear view as you slow for the turn onto Stewart Avenue you look back to see brake lights and trouble turning your way..

Collateral races down 12th street, pushing his bike hard. Even out here it was unusual for the Star to stop vehicles for speeding. Especially not with my luck. He heads up the road, turning to take the jog across on stewart street, when he notices that the gangers that passed him must be of the same stripe that they tangled with before. Thinking quickly, as soon as he gets around the corner he puts his bike into a powerslide stop. Even has he does this, he begins yelling loudly into his subvocal microphone.
<@All [Collateral] I seem to have run into a little bit of trouble here. Hopefully I can handle it, but it might be nice to have Zion back here. Do not, I repeat, do not come back with the van.>

Aeryn pushes the acceleration up, as she mentally guides the suburban onto the freeway. Knowing well enough, that police won't bother them for a little while at least around here, she wants to make some good time before going back towards reasonable speed and then staying within the speed limit as the neighborhood becomes significantly better.
< [Aeryn] Roger. Staying on course. Good luck! >

Collateral
Turning the corner and hitting a power slide, Collateral manages to hop over the bike as it comes to a stop. He lays the bike on its side and pulls his shotgun to lay in wait. The three bikers turn the corner at a rate of speed that definitely meant they didn't expect Collateral to be right there....
Zion
Having just made it onto North Meridian, traffic is still light, so Zion is able to cross back over to the southbound lane and head back.
Cynic
As Alpha circles your meat body, your astral presence rockets along the path back towards the parking lot. You arrive at the scene to see three attackers.

OH FRAG! Cynic thought to himself, watching the scene unfold in the techni-color reality of astral space.
With a thought he raced back to where his meat body was, taking a few seconds to find Aeryn and his flesh in the van as it headed along the Puyallup streets.
I gotta warn Zion and see if we need to help Collateral.
He'd been in gang fights before, and like always when a fight broke out he felt his pulse race and had that smokey taste in his mouth that told him it was time to let the mana flow. He just doubted that he'd be there in time to help one of what he was quickly coming to think of as his crew.

Collateral waits, crouched down in front of his bike as the seconds tick away, slowly compared to his cybernetically boosted reflexes. The bikers come around the corner too fast. They were obviously not expecting him. The shotgun bucks once against his shoulder, then moves to the left and bucks again. He speaks slowly into his subvocal microphone.
<@Zion [Collateral] There's three. This is going to happen fast. Either I'll make it out or they will.>

The two quick shotgun blasts takes the first two bikers off their seat before they even realize their mistake. The third is reaching inside his jacket, but he is just not as fast as Collateral...
Cynic: Sunday March 2, 2070; 04:17:09; North Meridian Ave Puyallup
In the blink of an eye you feel the weight of body and the pressure of the atmosphere as your lungs fill with air, the urgency of your spirit immediately translating to an adrenaline surge in your body. You are back in the van.

"only three i thought those guys would call for more back up, they must not be to high on the totem pole to be of care from the gangers" Zion notices Collaterals smooth voice made the message seem like he wasn't that worried about his situation either. Zion replies subvocally" well i guess if they make it out then ill get that boom stick of yours, but if your still at it when i get there it will be 50/50 after hawking their stuff, if its even worth anything" Zion lets out a laugh thinking about the comment "but seriously if its not to much trouble and your not to busy save at least a little work for me."

Collateral
Collateral's luck holds, at least for a few more seconds. The shotgun slug hits the third ganger taking him on the bike. The second slug hits him before he hits the ground sending him sprawling on his back.
The remaining two gangers are frantically trying to mount a retaliation. They have pulled machine pistols from under their jackets and open fire....

Even as he was making this announcement out loud he was activating his commlink to let Zion know that Collateral could use the help.
ALL: Collateral could use a hand, he's been ambushed by the gang-bangers again. Active fire occuring.

Satisfied that the gangers are neutralized, Collateral picks his bike back up and starts it again. He hops on swiftly, and pulls over to the side of the road, taking a few seconds to reload his shotgun. Starting it up, he begins to roar down the road, speeding after his teammates.
<@Team [Collateral] Threat neutralized. Hopefully those ujnorts know how to take a hint. I'm hurrying to catch up, but do not hold up the meet on my account.>
Either we've heard the last of those gangers or they're going to try and retaliate in force. No chance I'm gonna stick around to find out.
