After the acquisition of new toys from a fixer (read as: illegal goods)
the shadowrunners are caught by a heavily armed squad of Lonestar security.
Lonestar having been tipped of the transaction by the fixer came ready to
deal with most all circumstances. The team is eventually captured after a
shortly lived battle and taken to jail or a secured hospital whichever is
applicable. During preparations for the court proceedings the shadowrunners
are called to the prosecuting attorneys office. Under heavy supervision

Lonestar having been tipped of the transaction by the fixer came ready to
deal with most all circumstances. The team is eventually captured after a
shortly lived battle and taken to jail or a secured hospital whichever is

are called to the prosecuting attorney's office. Under heavy supervision
and without the use of their attorney (forced to stay outside) the runners
are given a chance at redemption.

The deal is simple: The runners can plead not guilty and face a judge
which has been bought by the prosecuting attorney or plead guilty and be
sent to jail. The trick is that if they plead guilty the prosecuting
attorney will arrange for their escape and after the run the clearing of the
courts records of any and all wrong doings (noone said anything about
clearing photoscans, fingerprints, descriptions, and lists of enhancements).
The prosecuting attorney will arrange for the runners to be new cops
to the Bellvue district. The object is to identify, locate and eliminate
a band of bad cops associated with the Yakuza without being recognized and
killed by the Yakuza, Mafia, or Police. Of course during this they must
report and try to stop all crime, make arrests, and in general act like
a respectable cop. It would be terrible to be taken in for being a dirty
cop while your still a wanted man.

(GM's note: the Seoulpa ring "the Phantom Lakers" are the money backing
this op. They figure the Yakuza will blame the Mafia and start a gang war.
During the War the Phantom Lakers will cut themselves a bigger slice of
the pie; most from the Yakuza, but part from the Mafia.)
