House of Pain Round 2 - Seconds Out

## Summary

Rex Royale wanted to send a message to the Muscle Wizards in a language they understood: violence. He hired the edgerunners to stomp the Muscle Wizards to put an end to their slaving and to get some revenge for Mavis, Mr Blu, and Richter. They rocked up to the House of Pain in some of Rex's vehicles and immediately kicked off the fight, despite the Muscle Wizards seemingly being prepared to let them head inside to fight it out with the bosses. Rex's men helped turn the tide in the hallway then secured the entrance. The edgerunners made their way through a dark, disorientating room where bioscultped muscle wizards kept trying to separate them and kill them in isolation. Excellent team work meant nobody died. They finally found themselves fighting Grendel, Lurtz, and Grag. Grendel managed to put Clark down but the edgerunners got their revenge and put a stop to the threat of the muscle wizards for the time being.

## Summary

Dimitri hired a crew to find a member of the Prime Time Players living abouve a diner in Little Europe to recover an asset purchased with loaned cash. The crew managed to bribe their way upstairs, and would break into a fight with one of the prime timers crew known as George. The rest would come into the fight, and the crew realized they were facing off against PTs of the show "Seinfeld" searching through the scene, it became clear the item purchased by Jerome was a Superman Figurine to complete the apartment design that was down to the detail.

After killing two of the crew, the rest hid in the adjacent apartment. Interrogating Jerry, it became clear that the crew was angry since Jerry used their cash to buy the superman statue, and as a result stole it from him in order to use for their game of Risk. As they broke in to continue fighting, they realized the police had arrived and began arresting both sides of the conflict. In an effort to divert attention, E-Gore started a scramble, as Ants raced to break out through an alley window as Cherides went down a fire exit with hands cuffed. Prophet was the only one to stay back and aid the police and divert attention that they were involved. With Jerry dead, and his arch nemesis, Newman, escaping through a window. The crew returned the statue to Dimitri and were paid off.
The Grid

## Summary

The group was hired by Segatori Rush executive Kevin Flynn to test a new e-sports game. When they arrived at his development studion in Heywood, however, he told them confidentially it wasn't a game, it was an "experience." He claimed he had discovered a way to enter another dimention, one controlled by a God that acted similar to an AI. Segatori Rush were monetizing it by turning it into a competitive "game", but Flynn warned the characters he had no control of whatever happened in there. The only one with control is the "Godlike" AI. None the less the players agreed to enter The Grid.

They entered by playing one of six video games while hooked up to what seemed like a cutting edge Brain Dance viewer. After defeating the first level of the video game, each player entered the Grid. Only Ghoul failed, unable to defeat the first level Tempest with only 4 quarters, and so he was locked out of the grid.

Inside, the players were each, individually and alone, approached by four women "Sirens". The Sirens cut off their clothes, revealing that the characters were already wearing netrunner bodyweight suits underneath. They each glowed yellow or blue depending on which game they played to enter. They were given an "Identity Disk" and warned to follow all directions or risk being "De-Rezzed". Then they were transported to the Game Arena.

As fireworks exploded around them they were presented with glowing bars that turned into superbikes. They engaged in a superbike death race, leaving walls of light behind them that proved hazardous. It soon became clear that if a superbike was destroyed its rider would "De Rezz" or disintigrate into glowing blue or yellow parks.

Ultimately General and Tea prevailed for Team Yellow and they were presented with a trophy with one of the denizens of this strange dimension. Then they felt themselves being forcefully pulled back into their native realm. Flynn asked everyone to describe their experiences and seemed envious of the responses. He gave the members of the winning team, Yellow, 200 eb and the losing team, Blue, 150 eb each as promised.

## Summary

Edgerunners were directly contacted by a local not-so-well known fixer who saw their latest Garden Patch posts and decided they'd be suitable for the job. A simple escort task "look tough, nobody will mess with us".

Along their drive in a food truck with Mr. Georgy Pitt, they see a motorcycle slash an X-like mark on the side of the vehicle, understandably marking it as a target for their crew. With quick thinking, Oracle uses her Jury Rigging Field Expertise to repair that slashed part, with the help of Refried Noodle with an amazing paint-job spraying over the repaired section to make it look like nothing happened. Moments later as they're driving away, they see a van with a group of Bozos greatly armed just pass by eyeing their vehicle for a bit, before ignoring it and moving on to the next vehicle. (Avoiding a potentially deadly combat scenario)

When finally arriving at the location, the team work together to distract and 'heard' the group of people that immediately began to rush their vehicle wanting to grab at whatever was of monetary or edible value. Diamond Eyes initiated the call for attention claiming to have real-chicken eggs, Red created a smoke-screen and completely obliterated a scavenger's knee-cap downing him for the fight, The German overwatching a choke-point with Incendiary Shotgun Shells, Oracle leading the crowd towards her and escaping with her vehicle using NOS, meanwhile Tea, Refried Noodle, and dr1v3r delivering the items with the Fixer to ensure completion of the job.

All leaving the scene as quickly as they arrived, with The German and Red jumping onto the van as it was pulling away, while Oracle drove off, everyone leaving Mr. Diamond Eyes who grappled up to a rooftop, made a promise to a lady, then threw money down to her causing her to get trampled by the crowd as he ran away rooftop to rooftop making his way to Oracle, and (heroically) still able to hear the lady's screams of agony as she died and gargled choking on her own blood.
Chunky Salsa vs Paco Bell Part 1

## Summary

Awesome spawn performance !! Thank you for joining, Will write the gig description in a few days\*

Arriving at Paco Bell, Taqueria and strip club, the party decided to split. The two solos Flatline and Reckless went to sneak down the alleyway entrance . While Mizmatch Jack and Turok tried a more social approach.

Mizmatch tried to get himself hired by Constanza, the manager of the club. He pretended to be a Rockerboy, but when asked about his intrument, he had to turn back and ask help from the team.

Turok in the meantime ordered some tacos, and scouted the place. Being creeped out by a kid who was offering lap dances from his mom .

Jack Rakham tried Magdalena, a MILK who took him to a boot and gave him a very nice show. She revealed that the girls here work with gps bracalets to prevent them from running away with the money of the clients.

After Flatline and reckless took down 2 guards like ninjas, without alerting security, the party planned an ambush and entered the office. finding Paco himself and constanza. A fight ensued but before the guards could get to the room, they have wounded Paco enough that he called a truce.

t0nic 0verr1d3 came out of the closet. crossdressing, and asking the party to take Magdalena, his new GF with them. They got him out. Everyone got paid, safe and sound!

## Summary

Edgerunners who were tech-savvy enough to decipher an encrypted message on a seemingly regular looking ad, were able to meet with a strange looking Fixer at Heywood (Santo Domingo). A parking complex turned into a safe-haven for those in need. Making their way there through narrow roads, heaps of trash, and people living on the streets in tents, cardboard boxes, and the odd sleeping bags, the group noticed one another due to being the only obvious hardened denizens of Night City (Night Citians Citizens as I like to call it). As they walked and talked, they had a good look around at the people living in this location, noticing how the place seems to feel more 'homey' the higher up they go, with fewer obvious weaponry, and more 'families' hanging around; all making a living sleeping on mattresses in the open, behind cardboard boxes, and in make-shift shelter setups calling this open yet somehow enclosed space, home. Meeting their contact on the roof, they get to see WmFm and his custom-made extra-large Frankenstein's monster of a Gyro Copter. Being told the job, and what he wants from them, they are flown over to the location and are let off his Gyro Copter except for Oracle who stayed onboard for slightly longer taking overwatch. As the crew began exploring, Red notices two Observation Cameras on the side of a wall, while Sven Svenson notices an Air Swarm Drone Cloud flying towards them. Combat ensues, as the drones increase, while the Edgerunners both try to fend them off and make their move towards their target location. Ultimately arriving at their specific location, they begin to collect what they were sent for, while fending off the increasing number of drones from more Air Swarm Drone Cloud, to Spider Walking Drones, to the big-bad-angry Savannah Panther. Finally eliminating any immediate threat, they head out and as they're flying out of there, they hear the elevator shaft rattle and shake; looking back, they see a large 8ft (2.4m) humanoid drone with with what looks like a full-steel form body moving on tank-treads, with 4-arms, and multiple weapons sticking out of the different slots. Sven remembers having faced off against a similar drone model that almost killed one of his team members for another mission, as they all immediately make their escape on the Gyrocopter.

## Summary

Edgerunners met with Blinging Eddie at his new bar location, helped him break down some walls and build up others using both Demolitions expertise by Tools and Custom, and their physical strength from Void and Shiva.

They learn of his nearby security guards, the large area-block that is currently his "turf" after other groups of Edgerunners cleared it out and made sure nobody comes back, and meet the innocent civilians living nearby whom Eddie is taking care of as a charitable deed.

Having met them and taken a liking to them, they Edgerunners ask Eddie about additional details related to these people and why they're here. Giving them a brief, they learn that there's a Raffen Shiv "wanna-be" gang who use their power over the weak to control them and force them into servitude. Additionally learning that these innocents are not registered legally into Night City's systems, and thus are taken advantage of as a result of this.

That information seemed to bother Void, who decided to donate 700eb to Blinging Eddie and the civilians that live nearby for food, clothes, and potentially improvement of shelter. Meanwhile, they Edgerunners decide to go meet with those Raffen wanna-be's. Doing so, they meet with these gangers and as soon as they get closer, they immediately begin taking shots starting off with a grenade launcher, a flare-gun, suppressing fire to group them up together again and continue to throw grenades or shoot at them, all but nearly obliterating these gangers in a matter of seconds.

Void gets his leg broken, Custom gets his armor tattered with a single autofire shot that seriously hurts him causing him to stand back and fire from a distance, Shiva faces off against one of the bigger members in Martial Arts combat, Tools takes a few shots but apologizes as he's shooting back, and Cherry places a couple of perfectly well planned suppressive fire shots that help manage the group of gangers in a way to save her Edgerunner friends.

Ultimately, despite all the hurt that was placed on the Edgerunners, they gave back that amount and more to the gangers killing all of them except one, bringing back a couple of them to Blinging Eddie for his own benefit of Cyberware and a slight bump in total payout.

## Summary

The group was informed that three men had taken loans from Dimitri, to which he decided to renegotiate due dates, and tasked the edgerunners to shake down and prepare for his arrival. The group took little time heading into the fray, storming the front door and tackling a couple of turrets and close up swipes of wolvers to enter. In the process an apartment building floor would give out, and force the party to go two directions.

Shiva would deal with a potential hired band of gangers known as the Skelly Boys, who under threat of spine breaking, reluctantly switched sides, helping turn the tide of battle. However all was not well, as Void would lose a hand in the process of fighting off an Edgerunner named J.T Bruiser.

By the end of the fight, the group had worn down the defenses, and forced the group to retreat through an impromptu exit. Among them, a woman who did not fit the scenario fled out of the back apartments with the men. However upon exiting the rooms, would be accosted by a sudden road biker pair, who after a few rounds of fighting, managed to subdue her and drive off. The remaining men would be gathered by the Crew, and set off to await Dimitris arrival.

The group would be paid out by Dimitri, who arrived on location with an additional figure: A Biosculpted man who looked like a marble statue with stern expression. Without explanation, he would proceed to kick each figure through a hole in the floor, breaking their legs in the process. The edgerunners did not stick around, instead leaving shortly after their payment.
He Took My Drinks!

## Summary

Edgerunners met with \*\*Blinging Eddie\*\* at "his bar". He just wanted to hang out for drinks, so they all sat around a table, enjoyed the bar music (which was terrible), and shared Edgerunning stories.

Fletcher happened to run into Mik the Media, and exchanged contacts, while Mr. K had a flash-back of a terrible experience with Slutz McGritz because he thinks someone with a similar name (or the same person?) may be associated with the bar.

Turns out, Blinging Eddie had way too much to drink, way too long of an Edgerunning day, and had to call it a night early; not before the crew saw a few suspicious things in his personal bag when he went away to the bar momentarily.

Mik paid Fletcher for a task, so Fletcher decided to share the money with the crew since nobody spoke to Eddie about the Eddies.... before he called it a night. (30eb each)

## Summary

Edgerunners who checked into H.I.T.S™️ for a job, found a high-priority urgent job with a pickup ETA 3m. Accepting the job, and getting ready in those 3 minutes as an A.V landed over-head for each person to get picked up, they had to quickly meet-and-greet on-board the A.V as they were being briefed and flown to a nearby 'secret location'.

The mission: Find and extract a VIP who is stuck within their own home due to malfunctioning internal home defenses.
The members onboard the A.V were able to experience a pre-recorded 'view only' Braindance which helped them get a view of the location and figure out where things were within the building. Jumping out of the A.V and barely making it on the ground without breaking their legs, they begin to make their way into the building by first breaking through the bolt-locked steel door.

Immediately upon entering, Uncle Void notices a swarm of drones heading their way and engages, and as the rest of the members enter, Sven notices yet another swarm of drones approaching from the opposite location. Disabling the drones and continuing into the building, the Edgerunners continue to face strange traps from teargas, to wall punchers, and even a laser-grid in a narrow corridor just after everyone filed in as they headed to the central location of this building.

Opening the door to the main location, Morgan sees a large humanoid droid moving on treads zip right up to them and begin to attack with blades on one of its four arms. As combat ensues and the remaining members in the corridor begin to spill into the room avoiding the laser-grid, Sanaa decides to take another route and faces a ceiling turret. Moving quickly, she finds the VIP stuck in what looked like a 2020 ice-tank that was repurposed to act as a cryotank, with a mostly naked fellow inside it.

As the other members fought off the large droid, taking a few hits from its ranged attacks, blade-slices, and ultimately a grenade launched at them; Morgan goes down and begins to bleed out, just as Void and Sven attempt to stabilize him successfully, while Sanaa uses two of her rockets being shot perfectly between the large droid and another swarm of dones, disabling them to the best she could. To her surprise, despite being mostly burnt, charred, and broken; the large droid continued to push forward moving one space at a time as all of its treads had fallen off, and it kept attempting to shoot the "intruders".

Working together, Sven and Sanaa completely disable the droid and the remaining drone swarms, while Void carries the VIP along with an unconscious near-death Morgan. They all make it outside of the building where they had shot a couple of flares and saw the A.V fly in to extract them.
Aww, Rats!

## Summary

Killer rats, they can eat your insides from 15 feet away! They turn your legs into pizza! They can fly using their helicopter tails! They have the strength of three men and the guile to match! How can we possibly defend ourselves from such a terrible threat?

The brave edgerunners took this challenge head-on and made their way to the docks. They weren't scared of some stupid rumors of killer rats at the Heywood Docks. A.S.S. put out an APB to remove those rats, and by God were they going to. The team went in for some information hunting. Who had details on these rats? Where were they coming from? Were they even real? Everything was in question as the edgerunners received mixed and increasingly unbelievable stories from all of the dock workers about their run ins with the rats.

Through some excellent detective work, the team was able to find a key piece of information. Tommy Lucky had gone missing two full days ago. His boss thought it was a no-call no-show. His coworkers? They thought it was something much more sinister than that. They had claimed that Tommy accidentally fell into the harbor, and never resurfaced. With this piece of information, the team ventured into the drainage tunnels underneath the Heywood Docks. (editor's note: void bribed 4 biosculpted dragons to carry him like a pharaoh so he did not need to touch water)

What the runners found in the tunnels was positively rattling. Thousands, if not tens of thousands, of regular sized rats with cybereyes and chyron were under the control of The Rat King, a cyberpsycho with all-rat appendages. The team negotiated peacefully with The Rat King to free Tommy Lucky and to help secure a food source for The King and his army of rats in the future. One that, hopefully, doesn't involve eating people.

The team was congratulated for a job well done.

Uncle Void wasn't convinced that this rat was all he appeared to be. Dashing off into the night, Void searched for the one thing that could absolve the Heywood Docks of this rat terror - a tanker full of CHOOH2 and a match.

## Summary

Special
-All participants have gained +1 rep w/ Sal Greene
-Flatline and Izuru are no longer blacklisted with the EEAP.
-Bow-Tie Karl has acquired "Villefort" as a fan. Villefort is a NightCorp NCART Transit mechanic who has been making shady deals to pay for his kid's cancer medication. Karl has promised to try and help Villefort so that he no longer has to do that.
- Flatline Has learned of a new location in New Westbrook known as "Wing Hut" selling synthchicken wings for a relatively affordable price.
- Izuru Has earned the title "Muffin Molester".

Details
Sal Greene hired a myriad bunch of fuckups to do something "simple". Collections, for an individual known as the Good Doctor, with two big catches.

1. The debts were favors, not money.
2. The debtors weren't meant to be flatlined.

Sal Greene had dossiers prepped for the targets, and after that, the Edgerunners were released to figure shit out. With a little bit of planning, they had a plan of action.

First a matter of hunting down Villefort - a local tech. Turned out he was a fan of Bowtie Karl's, and was willing to work with the Edgerunners after being promised support to ensure his kid gets cancer meds without dealing with the Good Doctor anymore.

Next on the list, was Kennedy...an ex-Kennedy that had been Biosculpted, and opened up a Bodega, looking to finally break free from his gang life. The crew waited for him to get off work, and as he went to go get chicken, they broke into his home, and jumped him upon arrival. There he was given the choice of uncertain death by Kennedys or certain death by Flatline if he failed to comply: he complied.

Kennedy reached out to a sleeper cell of Kennedys, and it appears a sleeper cell was activated: Targeting an undisclosed N-Cart station.

The final task was to put a chip in a parkour runner, Belle, who had tried running out on his debt: the gang showed up to his apartment, but he seemed to know they were coming, tried to make a break for it when Dazza literally sniffed him out of hiding.

The group put him on the ground pretty fast, got him cuffed, and slapped that chip into him - sending him into convulsions. Thankfully Izuru was able to keep him stable and ensure the chip wasn't rejected - just Biz after all.

Sal confirmed everything was good: Pay is on the way.

Appleseed had done some kareoke in the venue during the after party, however instead of the thrash punk he was known for, he was singing the blues. The crew also watched as Nancy slyly slipped a suspicious chip into Appleseeds chipware slot.

The crew found out about and headed over to Nancy's clothing shop, upon arrival Nancy was behind the counter. All hell broke loose when Nancy was grabbed and thrust behind the counter into a store room, tensions were very high and the crews approach was one of that of aggression. Nancy is a cold hard queen, after getting shot in the leg she resigned herself to death and refused to give up any information about her lover.

The crew spared her life, paid her some sorry money and departed.

## Summary

The runners met up with Quartz to get the deets. Protect Constance and enjoy the party. The runners met up with Constance and got to party, even playing some beer pong while others kept sketchy gonks at bay. Cheirides played well with Constance, as Mythos distracted a few Elf Dorphs that definielty seemed a like they were up to something. As they tried to keep Constance’s spirit high, the vibe of the room ran low as a post made its way across the garden patch.

Evntually, news made its way to Constance from her fellow Lightning Kittens. Distraught she began to try to make her way straight to Tartarus, almost certain that they were the ones behind her kidnapping. As Cheirides stopped her from heading off alone, she passed out. They all decided to take her home, and just so happened to be followed by some unwelcome guests.

Combat ensued on the roads through the upper marina back towards Constance’s home. As Luca, Cheirides, and Theo took shots Mythos threw two well placed grenades. As the number of enemies dwindled down, Theo made a decision to jump from their vehicle onto the motorcycle next to them. They began to tussle with the driver, as Mythos jumped onto the front end of the motorcycle. The driver of the combat cab decided to bash against the motorcyclist, and Mythos wrestled control of the bike from the driver. Shortly after taking control, Mythos lost control and crashed the bike. They began to fight against this lone Elf Dorph as they heard sirens in the distance and decided that Constance should not be involved with NCPD if they can help it. They left the beaten and bruised ganger in the dust as they took off with the star of the night!
Blue Bird Part 3

## Summary

The party was hired to convince at last one, if not two people that work at the casino Golden Medallion.

Fletcher attempted to flirt with Morikawa, but she kept on reading his intentions and lost interest. However Vauxhall seduced her with poetry and got her to talk about a masquerade party that the party agree to go to. During the party, they made an elaborate set up to make her believe that the casino had hired people to kill her. This didn't go quite as planned but she was feeling vulnerable and scared, and accepted a ride to Vauxhall house, expecting to have a night of passion.

Once in his place, Vauxhaul threaten her to kill her unless she accepted to work for Don Chepe. Afraid for her life, she did.

The other person was a netrunner called Sharatt, who was in a relationship with Morikawa. However he was addicted to elflines online and played a tank called Drogo.

Chappie had a long talk with him about the meaning of life, relationships, online gaming, and convinced him to follow his dream. Drogo invited him and Saana to play live and stream, which they did, Sanaa reluctantly joined the game and ended up being an awesome DPS casting Meteor Shower and winning the raid. Drogo fell in love and made her promise to come back and DPS for her. And Chappie promised to write some garden patch post encouraging people to watch Drogo channel.

Drogo quit his job, but was advise to do this last deal in order to save money to finance his new influencer streamer career.

House of Pain

## Summary

The team was hired by Rex Royale to put down a bunch of Muscle Wizards who were kidnapping people to sell to the Raffen Shiv for a fighting pit in the Badlands. They tried to scope the area out but Mr Blu was spotted straight away. A hard fight saw Lurtz, the local leader of the Muscle Wizards, turn up on the scene. A long drawn out brawl saw some heroics from the edgerunners but in the end they were unable to finish off the Muscle Wizards and were forced from the field.

NOTABLE MENTION

Mavis was hit hard by Lurtz. Instead of stabilising herself, she took an aimed head shot at him. The fates intervened and she scored a hugely damaging hit on him.

(Aimed head shot that beat Mini-Bosses evasion by 1 whilst on death saves. Rolled three sixes on the tarot and got The Tower to do 34 total damage to him)

Can't Get Enough of Your Love

## Summary

Several attempts to woo Barry were made:

Mavis and Nelita stormed the stage and sang with Barry. Earth, Wind, & Fire security shooed them off the stage.

Foame and Mr. Blu tried to convince Barry to come off the stage so they could abduct him. Concerned Mr. Blu was another crazed fan, Barry paid Foame 20eb to take Mr. Blu away from him.

Moxxxi took the opportunity to dance on the bartop and earn 18eb worth of tips.

Dr. Deets tried to persuade Earth, Wind, & Fire to let him speak to Barry by threatening them with a bad review of Barry and the WTF when they wouldn’t accept a bribe.

All failed horribly.

Finally, Mavis took some glow shots to Barry, and successfully persuaded EW&F to let her speak to him. She promptly fell for his sultry voice and dripping charm, and realized she was a fan. She made the ultimate sacrifice by winning Barry over with heartfelt conversation and convincing him to give Nelita another chance, instead of herself. She fixed Nelita’s hair and makeup in the bathroom and spiced up her outfit a bit, even though she was emotionally devastated. Mavis had herself a cry while Nelita and Barry faded to black in in his private booth in the VIP section.

## Summary

The crew met with Rye who had bought an open top bus and had a plan. Kind of. He had some important space execs meeting him at the end of the tour and he was going to make enough money to be able to buy crystal palace. The plan was to rename it the cryestal palace.

The plan had gone arye however as he had paid someone to remove the stairs from the bus and install a fireman's pole. As the ryeot van was also a party bus. Rye had waited on the top deck whilst the stairs were removed. He was subsequently robbed and unable to get down due to lack of hands.

The crew aryeved and set about helping him fix up the bus, making it into a Bedouin palace of soft furnishings, scarves and lavender scented auto hypos they had robbed from a local hippy down at the Bedouin Bodega.

Rye had gone off to gather party supplies, coming back with a shopping cart attached to some rope wrapped around his waist. He was salting pretty fast when Torah grabbed the cart causing rye to stop very abruptly. After fixing the whiplash the crew went on the route.

Cue an average bus ride in night city.

Gerald Windsor having to be talked down from teaching a lesson to some 80's punk dressed teenagers.

Said teenagers playing an impromptu gig with Torah, everyone spitting on each other and Bean nourishing a future anarchist rockerboy with a rocket launcher.

A set of tourists in the wrong city, unable to communicate with anyone, trying to go to a hospital. The crew saved them from the certain scavving after the gig on the top of the bus was halted by a misplaced rocket launcher shot that hit 7 people, and an amp that was turned up to 11, which is ryer than ten. .

During all the commotion one of the local homeless wildlife had snuck on to the bus. Nails and Widow having the pleasure of being flashed by the crazy homeless exotic before he tried to steal Nails' gun.

Beans' protégé was given another rocket whilst being in a shocked state at the blood on his hands. Asked to do it again and in his veitnam war vet memory state he was stood ready to fire another when the bus pulled up to its final stop, the fixers union where we have the important space people and the protesting execs. Luckily for everyone Fletcher was drunk, his abrupt halting of the Vechical flinging the punk from the bus before he could shoot!

Rye ryealised that his space dreams were crushed and that he wasn't good at his job whilst Torah and Beans rushed to the aid of their new favourite rockerboy.
H.I.T.S Blood-Braindance

## Summary

Edgerunners were hired to run through a Braindance training simulation before going on a search-and-rescue job. Mid simulation, they are interrupted and woken up in a small dark room; chained up, and seeing some of their companions already having been tortured/executed.

After a lot of interrogation, back-and-forth, a few attempts at escaping the chains, and a lot of beatings (without armor), most of the Edgerunners perish due to stubbornness and unwillingness to just cooperate, get paid, and be left alone to live.

## Summary

Edgerunners were anonymously hired to retrieve a highly invaluable item, sentimentally, which represented a trophy that their contact and his friends made for their local competition when they were young teenagers. It has been handed down from one person to the next each year as the reigning champion would put the trophy up to be won. This tradition has gone on for over 22 years, until now when the original owner and winner of the trophy asked for it to be brought back to him... somehow.

Expecting Edgerunners to go in there, shoot up the place, and steal the trophy, he stuck around and made sure to have eyes-on-location so he could receive the item. To his surprise, they used their social skills, tactics, and their own athleticism to actually participate in this competition and win the trophy.

Shiva pulled off more than enough moves to gain the highest number of points and come in first place position in the competition, winning the trophy, and handing it over to the contact for their payment.
Sanaa made a trophy of her own that was masterfully done, she handed it to the main judge who decided it would be used to represent their winner going forward, which is made of metal pieces and parts that look like a skateboard when looked at from a specific angle.
Sunset made a few attempts at some pro tricks, succeeding in them, but wiping out on one of them and losing the chance to win the competition; meanwhile went on to attempt to help Sanaa with her plans.
Spyware earned the name of Daredevil among the skaters in Old Japantown for his massively daring and dangerous tricks, from wall-riding with his bike, to jumping up a 12m high ramp that he made, and attempting to pull off backflips, succeeding in one, failing in others and wiping out hard.
Flatline earned the name of Fireman for setting himself ablaze with a Gasoline-fire, and doing tricks while on-fire most of the time. Despite not pulling off many masterful tricks, the ones he did pull-off seemed extremely cool to everyone else.

Finally, the Edgerunners went to meet with their contact somewhere North-West of their location, Blinging Eddi's bar, where they met his new "right-hand Bookkeeper and Bartender" Amane Higurashi, and their original client who gave them the job. Paying them each with a 100eb credchip, they each take their pay and head out on their way.
