McCallister contacted you and passed on an LTG id with the single word title of "Biz". You are to meet a Mr Johnson in Elliots, Downtown Seattle. Mr Johnson turns out to be Laurent Nazaire, a member of the Atlantean Foundation and someone you crossed swords with back in 2074. He wants to hire you for a simple data run, it should be no more than an evenings work and he will pay you 5k each to retrieve a video file relating to experiments performed by the Illuminates of the New Dawn. To sweeten the deal he offers to buy anything else you find at the lodge a very reasonable margin to yourselves.
Having received the location you set of to the hunting lodge and travel further and further into the boonies of Auburn, you travel so far you are very close to the Salish-Shide border. You realise you are close to the lodge as your WIFI and AR starts up again and you can see it just around the corner of the little used road. No sooner do you see the lodge then you are set upon by two spirits, one Astrally and the other in the physical. Anders manages to fight off the Astral threat yet the fight leaves him exhausted and bruised, meanwhile Lee, Alex, Andy and Ade unload as much ordinance as possible on the manifest spirit, it has some effect though it takes you a long time to final dissipate its physical form, Andy takes some damage from the spirits acid breath and Ade's truck whilst dented and buckled takes no real damage. You have however made such noise that if anyone is at the lodge they and anyone with 5 miles knows where you are.
Ade releases a pair of drones to spot out the lodge and sees Wizard wanna-b's and go-gangers moving into cover and casting spells. A plan of a multi-pronged attack is developed and it almost goes to plan, Ade's drones unleash Frag grenades yet the gangers are proted by a physical barrier and they have no effect. Andy's supernatural gun slinging manages to take down one then the fire-power from the drones and Andy's Ruger take out the other go-gangers. There is damage though, one of Ade's drones is destroyed as it crashes to the ground and one of the Mages lands a lightning bolt on Andy.
Whilst this goes on Lee and Alex infiltrate the lodge, take out the lightning casting mage and capture tw others. They belong to a gang called the Spectres, they dont know what they are doing here, the only one who does is the boss who Lee double tapped as he cam through the kitchen. Neverless, you zip tie these guys, strip them and eventually dump them on the edge of there territory.
Anders manages to summon a spirit to search the area and you find a data storage device, with that found Anders takes a healing nap and Alex starts to hack through the drive. It takes him over an hour and he suffers some serious damage from black ice yet he unlocks it. You seem to have 11 video files, paydata and hopefully the thing you where sent to find. You strip the lodge of telesma and talismongery gear and then loot the dead bodies and pile this into the Toyota Gopher the ganger's arrived in. You then call Johnson and meet him in an abandoned church in Redmond. There you discuss the paydata, you do indeed have what he is after and he offers to pay for the other files on there. You agree and he introduces you to a beautiful young lady called Elizabeth he seems to be making the churches crypt into a comfortable living space.
