A Mischief of Magpies

## Summary

The edgerunners assembled at a multilevel carpark in Watson, meeting up with the Maelstromer Roach.  Their contact gleefully offered them a number of drugs and only Ghoul chose to indulge him by taking the offered blue glass.  On their mission to provoke a god they were informed a friend paid with the money meant for Chappie had tracked down the Vendit God and in this parking lot was the source of it's power, a Rayfield.  The group followed Roach in and Ghoul ended up in a conversation with the car, it tried to tease him as he hallucinated it giving him bedroom eyes on its windscreen.  This lead to Callie regretting helping Ghoul with his broken jaw.

Ghoul freaks out and shoots the car right between the eyes causing it to scream and security to come running.  The group all try to hide but Callie and Nick are unsuccessful and are spotted.  They play this off as that they're a couple canoodling in a car park while a jealous lover just tried to shoot them.  They manage to convince them just about as they didn't believe Hornet who was watching from outside was the shooter.  But Callie and Nick convinced the men to take them to the back room to check the CCTV to identify the shooter.

Ghoul asked Roach and Flatline for a distraction, Flatline not understanding what the hell was happening stayed hiding.  Roach however ran out from cover screaming as he suppressed the guards, tearing off around the levels of the car park.  With Roach on the run screaming with some guards on his tail Ghoul tried to persuade the car into letting him in as it flirted back.   Ghoul ended up in a fight with the guards while Hornet watched and Flatline remained hiding.  Ghoul pressed his butt up against the door only to find that as he touched the handle the car shocked him and told him to try harder cause she likes that.

Hornet eventually came over but instead of helping after a lot of taunting from Ghoul she decided to attempt to shoot him.  While all this was going on Callie and Nick attacked the netrunner in the surveillance room.  Over powering him and eventually convincing him to wipe the footage and jack out.   Ghoul managed to contort his way into the car through a broken window and tried to start the car without the keys.  Flatline eventually came out to suppressive fire the guards and got into the car.  Ghoul then sucked on the car's gear stick to try and persuade it before sitting on it leaving Flatline slightly disturbed, however in persuading the car he spotted a set of car keys inside.

Hating what he had become Ghoul taunted Hornet more about Wasp leading her to drag him out of the car.  Even while grappled the guards could still not hit him and Ghoul managed to convince one guard to shoot himself since he was a failure.   Turning his attention back to Hornet, he said she was clearly not getting laid and started pulling out grenades to blow himself and Hornet up.  Eventually doing so, Hornet tanked the damage not wanting to let Ghoul go.  Flatline and Roach booked it in the car while Nick and Callie escaped after asking the Netrunner a good way out.  After two incendiary grenades and a few punches from Hornet Ghoul died and while still on fire his body exploded into a bloody smear as the final hurrah.
