Chapter 20: The Fuzz Strikes Back
REST!
Alex is treated by the nurses more, but then Lucas calls them upstairs, leaving him alone down in the basement. Well, this sucks.
(1 turn of treatment remaining; Process Halted)
"I'd prefer it now."
Go find another store, repeat the process.
"Very well." He hands over the payment.
(+125$)William exits with his new fortune and walks out of the store. He walks down, and sees more valuable targets. However, as he walks, a police car rolls right up onto the curb next to him. Before he can react, a policeman, jumps out the passenger seat and presses something metallic to his ribcage. "My friend, good to see you!" William looks him in the eye,; it's the corrupt cop. He realizes the thing that's pressed up onto him is a taser. He can't do anything here either, to many possible witnesses. "Please, come with me." William is thrown into the back of the car. In the driver's seat is another cop with glasses, and besides him is a third cop, this one young and toying with a small pistol. William's extorter turns around, "Don't worry, we're just getting you back to the pub so you can get the money together alright? No false moves though, or we'll shoot your arse." He smiles. The younger cop keeps his pistol's barrel pointed at William the whole time. After a few minutes, the car arrives in front of the pub. "Let our guest go first." The young cop prods William's back with his gun.
I thought Hawkson boys were supposed to be tough, not little *itches!, FIGHT ME!"
Challenge Him!
Mason screams out for the leader Hawkson Boy to fight him. No response.
Go back downstairs, get some money, find electronic store, and purchase a pre-paid cell phone.
Jackson grabs some money off of the table.
(+180$) He heads upstairs to find Lucas sending his group all over the pub. Jackson exits to go to an electronics store.
He heads to the closest one. As he gets there, he notices yellow tape stretched across the entrance. A policeman stops him from going further. "It's going to be closed for a while, there's been a robbery here."
Gather up my guards then return to the pub, call my 2 medics up to the pub and ask the barkeeper.
"Can you clear this place out? Our cop friend is on his way and unless you trust them to stay quiet I don't want anybody but my men in here, I'll compensate you for the lost money, also give all of my men drinks and something to eat I'll pay for it."
Jonah+1
"Jonah sit outside with one of the others, take some drinks I'll pay for them, come in once the cop is inside but stay close to the door to prevent him escaping.
Fyfe+1
"Take your assistant and stay near the back doors, if he makes a run for it then block the door or put him down, whichever you prefer."
Berk+1
Sit with me, once he comes in we take him down, cover your faces when we move and knock him out, I want him alive.
Remaining 4
You four sit in two pairs near any remaining doors, once I move with my two you be ready, if he makes a run for it put him down hard but don't kill him, I have some question for him."
Tell them all.
"We move on my signal, the signal is Arsenal sucks, cover your faces once you hear it and move in, whoever gets to him first knock him out cold, but make sure you keep those exits covered we can't afford to let him slip away so stay in your pairs and don't get in each others way, a bonus to the pair who brings him down but everybody will get paid once the others get back."
Lucas gets his crew into position as the bartender gets everyone out. Fortunately, the bar doesn't have a lot of visitors in the afternoon. As they all sit down in their respective spots, the Pub is ready for the action. Now William just has to walk in...
Wait in the drivers seat in case a rapid exit is needed at this store
Doug, Mal, Jason, and the rest of the robbery squad drive over to a small pharmacy. Pulling up to one, the squad gets out. Jason takes the driver's seat. Doug almost raises objection to this, but just shrugs it off.
The group almost barrels in through the automatic doors. The man at the counter, almost as if he's seen this before, runs to the phone. "No you don't!" yells Mal. (3 vs. 5) Mal leaps over the table just as the worker dials in 911. (5 vs. 6) The man just manages to spit out the address of the store as Mal takes the phone and throws it out a window. "Goddamnit!" He puts his gun to the man's chest and he surrenders. The rest of the gang starts raiding the back of it's drugs and medicines. There really isn't a lot of useful stuff in this store. Doug hears sirens in the distance and yells, "Shit, we need to get out of here!" Mal shoves the worker to the floor and the group runs out with their small bag of loot. They pile into the van before they even see the flashing lights. Doug yells to Jason, "Drive!" (6+1 vs. 2) Jason utilizes everything he knows about driving to speed away. Fortunately, the sounds of sirens fades. After five minutes or so, Jason parks the van back in the hidden garage. Everyone pants with relief.

Explain.
"No, I'm a member of the Syndicate, a group of individuals such as you. We aren't a support group- we're in it for the profit.
He stops. "Syndicate huh? What exactly kinda' group are you lot?"
"Uh, I'm here for the Lawn Service job. Where should I start?
Wait for a response.
The gates automatically swing open. The voice commands, "Proceed to the shed near the northeast corner. Then head to the south-side of the estate and clear out the tall grass. That is all for now."
