Jade cuts off her link with the guys. Yeah, a re-con run is a great idea. She sits up and finishes off her soycaf espresso. You want me to break into the place tonight to put it in there or do you just need the thing inside the duct work like the last one? She stands and stretches then walks over to her backpack. You wanna give me a ride and some company Satchel? Or am I going solo?

"No, I'm in." Responds Satchel as he finished off his beer while watching Clu pace.
Satchel find a trash bin for the dead solider, and then heads for the car. he reachs in from the passanger side to get the FN Har from the seat so he can put it back in its storage compartment in the trunk. He walks back to the back of the car, poping the trunk remotly as he goes. "I'll be ready in a couple min. Lets get this done, I want to grab a quick nap tonight before the run so I'm ready in case we are on the run tomorrow."
Satchel puts the assualt rifle and Ingram back in the trunk, while he retirves his two Ares Sliver guns setting them back up in their arm slides, and then puts his lined coat back on. Looking over at Jade, "Put what ever you will need in the trunk and then close it up."
As hes standing at the driver side door waiting for Jade to gather up her equip, he asks a quick question of Clu, "Hey Clu, you want us to pick you something to eat while we are out?"

As Clu paces and does his mental sweep of the items, he finds a few signals coming from some of the electronic devices, but nothing too secretive or malignant. Everything looks fairly clean.
Meanwhile, Satchel's inspection of the Supersquirt finds that it's in slightly used but relatively good and reliable condition. It's still quite an effective weapon for certain applications.
It is currently 23:04 PST (11:04pm local time.) The clouds are beginning to look a little heavier than usual, and there's rumbles of thunder in the distance.

Satchel walks over to the garage door, and hits the button to open it. Once its high enough he steps outside to look around, switching to thermal for one pass. Looking up he calls back inside, "Hey big surprise, looks like rain. Come on Jade lets get this done."

He looks over at Satchel and Jade as they prepare to depart, Dump it in a vent Jade like last time. If you can find a way to do that from outside, so much the better. The little bugger can go just about anywhere, but I can't open windows, doors, or vent covers. I just figure the vents would give me the maximum visual range without undue risk of discovery. I'll keep a channel open for you guys, if something goes wrong, or you need some computer expertise, give me a shout on the link line. He turns from the Firethroat's gear This stuff looks clean by the way. Becareful with it though until I have a chance to change the access codes for us. He reaches over and turns on the trideo projector. The scene displayed is of Clu's home node inside the matrix. Damn right I'd like something, I fraggin' starvin'. There's a Big Kahuna burger place not far from here. Get me a couple of the biggest soy burgers, fries, and a vanillia shake, extra thick. It's going to be a late night. Hell, throw in an order of soy fingers with the dipping sauce. Have fun playing. he says the last with a big grin. He then places a call to his fixer, Nic the Greek.

Nic the Greek picks up almost right away. There is no video of the man, but a voice feed belonging to the accented, rumbling baritone of the man seems to eminate somewhere from within Clu's mind.
"Yeah, that you Clu? I know it's you 'cause your commcode is playing hell with my 'link. Whatcha need?"

He smiles, Yeah Nic is me. I'm doing some freelance stuff and I need a favor. I need a rental van, something with an equipment cage in the back. I'm transporting some live cargo and I need a place to store it for a few hours. Problem is I'm under a dead line. I have to have the van at the usual drop point, the Big Kahuna burger in Tacoma by 11am at the absolute latest. It's for biz, so it would help if I could get an extra plate on it, I'll take care of the RFID signiture, scan me? I'm willing to pay the rental fee, plus after tommorrow I can loan you one of those browser sprits you love for a few hours, for what ever you need. Sound wiz?

After stowing her gear in the trunk, Jade slips into the passenger seat of Satchel's car. I'm ready to get this over with, especially before the rain gets too bad.

"Wiz, lets get this show on the road." Satchel says as hes climbing in the car, he waves out the window to Clu, "We'll get the food and be back in a flash."
As Satchel slowly pulls the car out of the garage he pulls the team link up in his AR, then the map showing where the pet store is. The subscribes his car speakers to his comm, " A little music?"
Before Jade can answer music starts to issue from the speakers of the care. Jade immeadity reconizes it as the Jet Black recordings that they had been dealing with on their last job. Before Jade can say anything about the fact that he was supposed to have destroyed the copies he smiles and says, "Hey I liked it and its for personal use only. It damn near got us killed, so I'm going to enjoy it."
Satchel keeps his driving normal and as before aviods any areas that may cuse problems on his way to the shop.
When the arrive he does a quick circle of the block checking things out, then pulls into the alley, letting Jade out to do her thing.
While she works he mutes his speakers, and keeps an active look out for LS or anyone else that may cause problems.

Jade slips out of the car and into the night, carrying her gear. She reestablishes her visual & audio links with Satchel & Clu. She removes her sunglasses and takes a few moments to look about. Using her thermal and enhanced vision, Jade makes sure the is "coast is clear" of any prying eyes. Organic or Electronic.

To Clu, the fixer's voice replies: "Van? Yeah, sure, that's no problem. I could probably have 'er there by nine or so. But a sprite? Whoa, I don't think so."
As Satchel and Jade approach the general neighborhood wherein the pet store lies, the heavy clouds begin to break slightly. Fat, heavy, sporadic droplets of rain pelt the vehicle hard enough to sound like rocks banging upon the roof, though the downfall isn't enough to obscure vision to any great degree.
The area is a dense, thriving commercial area, with rows and roads and backroads completely lined with shops catering to every taste, niche, sensibility, and (in some cases) fetish. One particular side road turns off of the main boulevard, then ends in a cul-de-sac. At the end of the cul-de-sac, a driveway leads into a medium-sized parking lot belonging to "PetFactory!"
PetFactory! is a single-story building with a front that mostly consists of large, macroplast windows that reveal a large, open room inside consisting of rows of merchandise. Oddly enough, from a front angle, absolutely no signs of live animals can be seen -- only accessories for them.
Jade slips out into the cold, soon-to-be-pretty-rainy evening and pans around with her vision. She zooms in to enhance the local environment for more detailed study. In doing so, she spies a Knight-Errant cruiser a couple of roads over, doing a silent night patrol of the area. She attempts to do a thermal scan simultaneously, which only creates a glitch that freezes her zoomed-in eyesight in place. For a moment, she is temporarily unable to zoom out again, making everything in her field of vision appear quite large and right in her face, despite its relative distance and size.

He looks a bit perplexed for a moment, but then shrugs, Hmmm, if you don't want the sprite that's fine by me Nic, but I thought you fixer types made your living on information? Browser Sprite would come in handy for that, but like I said if you don't want it I scan you. I guess I'll just owe you a small favor then. Give me a call if you need something in the future and thanks in advance for the van. He says his goodbyes to Nic and disconnects. He then brings up the digital white pages from the Seattle public data base and searches for "Richard Murray". He further narrows the search by only looking at the listings in or around Tacoma and in upscale neighborhoods, further narrowing the search by picking an address that can accommodate a pet. He then notes the LTG number. He then closes all unessential windows. With a tap of an ARO key a programing window opens up. With a deep breath he closes his eyes and reaches through himself deep into the digital realm, his hands fly across the keys as if they are alive and have a will of their own. Complex equations, some that make sense and others seem to be simply gibberish begin to form in the window and take shape.

Damn. Jade says under her breath. My cybereyes are stuck in zoom function. She blinks several times and shakes her head in frustration. There's a Knight-Errant cruiser patrolling the area. I'm going to check round the building. Need to find their ventilation systems. They're either behind the building or on the roof. She hefts the pack full of gear and begins to meld with the shadows, sneaking around the building. Infiltration Test: 12 dice, 3 hits invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=542762Infiltration Test vs Motion Sensor (if needed): 14 dice, 5 hits invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=542766OOC: Her chameleon suit causes observer a dice penalty vs perception test. Not sure if it's -2 or -4. I don't have my book with me.

"I was wondering what was going on there. I'm going head down the street a block or so. Don't want to attract attention. Comm me when your ready and I'll let you know where I am. If it hits the fan let me know and I'll be back ASAP."
Satchel slowly moves the car out of the alley keeping any eye out for any LS or other security services.
If he can he'll find a store or resturant thats open so he will not draw as much attention, other wise just somewhere outta sight.
OOC: let me know what I find so I can let you know how he sets up.

Jade's momentary glitch rights itself after about fifteen disorienting seconds. She's a little wobbly as far-off things leap back into the distance once again, but the vertigo quickly passes, and she's back in prime condition. She slips around the rear of the building with no problems.
(Jade, gimme another Perception+Intuition test, + the rating of your vision enhancements.)
Meanwhile, Satchel finds a 24/7 Stuffer Shack about a block off, within viewing distance of the PetFactory! outlet. Through the windows of the establishment, people can be seen drinking soykaf and engaging in idle conversation.
Clu reaches into the digital gestalt surrounding him and makes contact with a being from those enigmatic Resonance Realms... The Crack Sprite leaps into view before him, and it appears to be made of living eletricity or lightning, crackling and sparking, resembling a vaguely humanoid shape. It merely hovers there without saying any human words, but it communicates with Clu via emotional impression, sending to his technomancer compiler feelings of expectation and curiosity.
(Clu, roll Willpower+Resonance for Fading, +2 if you're in VR. Give me a Browse+Data Search roll, too.)
