Body of Evidence

## Background

Matt "Bullet" Porter got killed while chasing down Morgan Vickerson, a wanted war criminal he helped release.

## The Meet

Seen was minding his own business when Bullet's comm rang. He answered, imitating Bullet's voice and found himself talking to Doc Kane, who was calling because he had seen Bullet's obituary and was checking to see if it was true. Once the two figured out what was going on they traded notes and agreed that they would need to retrieve Bullet's body from the custody of the state. Seen suggested a few runners that had worked with Bullet before and Doc began organizing.

A few days later the runners get a call to meet up with Doc on the matrix. He revealed to them that the body was being held at <insert mortuary name here> in downtown Seattle and was scheduled for autopsy. Their mission was to retrieve Bullet's body, grab valuable medical supplies and any forensic data gathered in the autopsy.

## Legwork

Not having much in terms of matrix skills on the team Óphis called up Mailman and hired him to assist them on the run in exchange for some nuyen and all data Bullet and his devices had acquired on Vickerson and the moments leading up to his death. Seen got a spirit to check the place out report where the body was located and the state of security.

Seen and Pops remained behind to act as support and rapid getaway. Seen sustained a number of spells on Core and summoned a large air spirit to assist the team inside.

## Run

Core snuck in through the front doors, passing alongside an old lady so the MAD scanners going off wouldn't be suspicious. Óphis crawled in through the vents and the two navigated around unseen. Once inside Core gave Mailman a direct connection to a device in the host and he gave the runners access to the camera feed from the autopsy room, revealing that is was being overseen by a man whose mannerisms just screamed 'Fed'.

Assensing him revealed him to be a powerful mage, making an already complicated scenario even more hazardous as he would likely be able to detect any magical shenanigans and interfering with the man would bring the weight of his organization down on Seattle's runners. They could do little but wait.

They recorded the autopsy and took it in shifts to watch for signs of movement while the other raided the facility for supplies and grabbed Bullet's gear from storage. Hours later the autopsy finished and the body was moved to a refrigerated locker, Agent in tow. Still more hours later and the agent finally took a short break to relieve himself. The runners pounced, pulling out the body, sealing it in a body bag and concealing it with invisibility so Core could sneak it out a side door.

As they were getting everything stowed away in Pops' car the agent burst out the front door and cast a powerful manabolt at Core that it took all of the team's skill to mitigate. Pops put pedal to the metal and the car raced off, there was a brief police chase as the team struggled to find the hidden tag being used to track the corpse and they managed to slip away to meet up with Doc Kane.

## Aftermath

Doc felt that the autopsy performed at the facility was thorough enough that he didn't need to perform his own. He left the body to the runners to deal with and paid them for their services.

Bullet's dog tags requested a Christian burial, something none of the runners had any background for. After some consideration it was realized that Bullet's Polish Medal of Valour could be used to get him a quiet but official burial in Little Warsaw. They met up with a priest who would perform the ceremony with no questions asked.

They all gave their best eulogies and assisted in burying him.

They parted and went their separate ways, leaving his medal and dog tags in the earth and a simple unmarked cross to mark his final resting place.
