## Summary

The edge runners arrive at the unnamed café and greet each other up front. The café seemed a bit busy, filled with mostly gangers and armed civilians. As the group entered, they found the overalls rocking gentlemen known as Baxter Beltran asking for orange juice at the bar. Once they gathered, Baxter spoke to them about his new girlfriend Himiko, and how excited he was. After noticing the man was unarmed, Hero provided Baxter a teen dream. Shizukuna insisted that Baxter should point it at Himiko if she tries to leave him. As they spoke about protection in the Combat Zones, most of the group could hear a booster bragging about stuffing some joy toy and finding out they had a jealous output. Just as he stated this, a worn-down car was seen slowly creeping up towards him. Hero quickly ran outside to intervene before the expected drive-by shooting happened, and he did so just in time! The loud booster ganger ran off and the car followed, letting off rounds from their assault rifle.

Baxter grew nervous after hearing the gunshots and prepared to head to the restroom with Shizukuna. As they went in, Sunset noticed that a strange man in a trench coat was watching them closely. After a warning was given to the table, they watched as the man stood up, licked his lips, and followed Baxter and Shizukuna into the restroom. They followed in swiftly and watched the man as they noticed he only had a trench coat on. Once his intentions were brought to light, Hero pointed his bow and arrow at the man and told him to leave. He swiftly ran out of the café after voicing his disappointment. (Bearbeitet)

Once things seemed to calm down, a young man with a university jacket ran up to Baxter. He told him he was Himiko as he prepared to swing his bat at him. Splatter intervened with wolvers plunged straight into him center mass, as Shizukuna carved a chunk of his leg out. As he died, he said he actually wasn’t Himiko, and asked that they tell her that he... Once he died Baxter recognized him as Ryan, Himiko’s ex. The server walked to the table, and asked them politely to leave for the day, while Baxter was in the restroom trying to collect himself. Splatter tried to crack into the dead man’s agent, and upon failing noticed his background photo was of him and Himiko. She pieced together that they must have been dating in the meat space, and probably could have still been dating. Shizukuna brought Ryan’s body into the restroom and decided to stuff his body into a stall, lock the door, and crawl out from underneath. This left a blood trail from the table to the restroom, but with some prompt persuasion the waitress decided to look the other way.

After stuffing the body, a Tortuga bodyguard walked into the café. They began to scope the location out as Hero and Sunset snuck Baxter out. Once outside they let him go, and he rushed back inside past Splatter to beg for forgiveness from the café staff. The guard noticed that it was Baxter apologizing and offered to pay for any grievances Baxter and his company may have caused. After scoping the café out, he told his fellow guard that it was safe to bring Himiko. She arrived and walked into the café to enjoy her date with Baxter. Baxter was nervous at first but was able to lie about Ryan’s untimely demise in the café. Ryan’s friends came looking for him, but they were promptly chased off by all the edge runners pointing weapons at them, and Shizukuna firing her teen dream to chase them off with suppressive fire. One of the bodyguards went into the restroom but brushed off the trail of blood as he went back to the table to protect Himiko. The date continued without any more issues, and the runners left Himiko and Baxter as they smiled and enjoyed a nice brunch.
