## Summary

Connected Gig: 6L GTR

The team found a job posting that was rather cryptic, asking for the extraction of a VIP. No name was given, only an address. When the team arrived at the address located, Izuru was immediately on-guard. He recognized the fixer as a person that A.S.S. had designated as a wanted man and a known threat. Instead of taking the job and compromising his existing relationship with A.S.S., he gave Marcellus Acewall a phone call and informed him of the operation taking place. Marcellus thanked Izuru for the tip and wired him 100 eddies as compensation for his loyalty.

The rest of the team, not having any particular affiliations for or against A.S.S., decided to go along with the job. The fixer, identified as XI, gave them the run down of the job. They were to extract the executive and get her back to XI safely. The warehouse she was holed up in was in the Heywood Industrial Park near the harbor. The team performed a strong entry strategy - Ari imitated a homeless man in the docks, creating a distraction for the guard at the door and the guards directly around it. The rest of the edgerunners used the cover of stealth to enter the 2nd floor of the warehouse and get the jump on the operatives. Starting with a well placed headshot on an unsuspecting guard, the runners opened with their whole arsenal and didn't let up. Through multiple enemies being put into various states of wounded, the runners mowed through them while Ari grabbed a heavily armored guard and choked him out.

During the fight, the executive shower her true colors. She popped off the handcuffs without issue and began wailing on some of her captors, nearly incapacitating a guard in one shot. The attention of the bodyguards immediately shifted to the executive as she attempted to get away. An A.S.S. sniper did significant damage to the executive, breaking her arm - but thanks to E-Gore's heroics, she was able to get outside without becoming seriously wounded.

As the team fought against the remaining operatives, backup arrived outside. Whether it was due to the operatives themselves phoning for backup or from Izuru's call at the beginning of the mission, the edgerunners were faced with impossible odds as more than 5 full SUVs of security operatives showed up outside the building. Nearly out, the edgerunners picked up the pace, covered their exit with a smoke grenade, and managed to sneak onto the NCART and get the executive to a separate, secure location.

While on the NCART, the executive phoned XI and arranged for pickup. Bonesaw offered to patch up her broken arm, but the executive politely refused, flashing her Trauma Team Platinum card and insisting that she had a personal doctor that would take care of this. Some careful deduction from the edgerunners led them to understand how strange the set up was - if she had trauma team, was she ever really in danger? She broke from her restraints without issue and nearly killed a man with one hit. Was there something else going on here?

Without a chance to ask any follow up questions, the executive got off the NCART and got into XI's baby blue supercar as they sped off into the night.
