thank
you. And an extra half-hour will be welcome, as will the nurse. And while I
would prefer to work on a fully sedated patient, a magical trance will do as
long as his immobility is guaranteed. And unless the encephalon is located
in an unusual location, this should be relatively standard. I'm ready whenever
the rest of us are, and would like to get this done as I have other problems I
would like to address relatively shortly. Nothing immediately pressing, but
the sooner the better.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Once everybody showed up last night, things went off very well.
I really need to commend everyone. That was some exceptional dirt
you pulled out of the blackest of IC (well maybe not, but its still
good info).

Here's the plan:
Tech and Spark managed to get Jac's hospital record, a quick lay-out
of the place and general security. We know where Jac is and where
his guards are (two at the his door, one at the nurses station and two
in the lobby). They even managed to get a list of everyone else
who's in the infirmary. There just happens to be lots of people (a
particularly stupid accident on the obstacle course) in there right
now. Basilisk scored his schedule: in four days LSSC moves him to
the Metroplex Prison.

We probably can't get directly into Jac's room, but we can get into
the next room. A team will get into that room, posing as
visitors, climb out on the ledge to the next room and get Jac
together. We'll take down the guards in the hall (tear gas maybe?
or even better, we'll leak some anesthia [????] from one of the
operating rooms into the hallway....), throw Jac in a wheelchair (if
he can't move himself) and just waltz out to the van I've borrowed
out in the parking lot. A security team will be waiting in lobby in
case things get ugly, with a heavy weapons element in the van if
things get really ugly. (Don't worry, its one of those huge cargo
vans, that would seat something like 15 if you put seats in all the
way back.) Maybe some Matrix cover wouldn't hurt.... Basilisk, Tech,
can you get back into the Fort Lewis Infirmary's system? I've got
comm gear for everybody, I want to stay in near constant contact.

We'll throw Jac in the back and make like a wage slave outta work to
Sea-Tac airport. We can get directly to the private hangars so
anybody who wants out can take off with us. I suppose we can drop
people off along the way, but I don't know. Can you arrange
transportation from Sea-Tac airport to wherever on your own?

Assignments:
Extraction Team: Aardvark, Jasmine, Magikthize
Security Team: Dark Angel, Freddy Frypp
Heavy Weapons Team: Avatar, Powderkeg
Matrix Cover: Basilisk, Tech

Equipment:
We're gonna need lots of slap patches to Jac going. (Jasmine could
probably handle getting Jac going herself, but I don't want to put to
much strain on her. If anything ugly shows up, I'd like to have her
to help pull our cajones out of sucking chest wounds.) Aardvark, can
you scratch up about a half-dozen stim patches, antidote patches for
the drugs they've got him on (check later in the file for a list of
these) and maybe even a trauma patch, in case he's really bad off?
Magikthize will be carrying the only lethal weapon in the party (a
concealed Pred). I'd like the others to at least carry narcojets or
tasers.

Dark Angel, do you have anything that's small and concealable, but
still packs a wallop? If you do, bring it. I'm going to try and
hide a shotgun under my coat. (yeah, yeah, but I've lost lots of
stuff in the pockets of this coat. I tell ya, the pockets are
actually openings to other dimensions or something.)

As for heavy weapons, I mean big stuff, LMG's, MMG's assault rifles
whatever. If you don't have it, ask, maybe I brought something up
that'll work.

I'd like to move on this tomorrow night.

Drop me a line with ideas / comments / flames.

the way he thinks and acts towards others. But thats not truely important.

I honestly believe it was Lung (also one of yours) from China who mentioned
you when I was curious about your kind. At that time he gave me a small list
of names of others to whom I should speak with to learn more.

Unfortunately I do not have time right now, but I would so wish to speak with
you at a later date. Would you terribly mind it?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Well, to answer your initial question, yes, I think I am.

I sent Kabuki a message a while back telling him that I had purchased some
vehicles dont in CFS with him in mind. I knew they would need mods so I got
them down there to be easier for him to get to them and work on them.

Well, that was, I guess, about 3 days ago. I also got him in touch with
a friend of mine. Another security provider, armored Research and Devel.
I would guess that the two of them hit it off and he is really doing a number
on our new trucks.

I dont really think of it as skimming. You are likely to get to play with them
before WE even get a shot at it.]<<<<<

You can consider that payment for your work, or a donation to the Wedding
fund. I know how much we pay both of you, and, unless you start doing
illegal things, you might be a little cramped with all of the people you
have inadvertanly invited.

Have either of you decided where you are going to do this? Im always
afraid that one of these events is going to turn into a field day of
arrests for some law enforcement agency (Drake). Thats why I stopped
doing the parties that randomly comeup around here. Its just too easy
to frag 10 - 30 of the better runners in town during something like that.

Im certain that it was Lung that took care of the problems in China. It
was his hoop we were pulling out of the fire. I should show you that run
some time. Its...interesting.]<<<<<

BTLs were plain vanilla. The interrogation line seems to be petering
out all of a sudden: either I scared them off, or they finished what they
wanted to do.

Any guesses for which I think it is?

And if you want to come in on this, I can offer >>encrypted<< per hit:
you're right, it'll throw them off. Not retirement cash, but this involves
risk. As for targets, we're running kind of dry at the moment, but I'll get
onto your decker and see what comes up.
