Pulling out your RCC, and with a swift clatter on the keys, you send a command over to your van. The side mounted tower spins up, and launches into the air, with the pelican stowed in it's cargo. It only takes a few minuets for them to get to the relevant location. When your tower is within three hundred meters, you deploy the Condor, which plummets for five meters before the airbag can fill, and then manages to become lighter than air again. It meanders it's way towards the warehouse, trying to not look suspicious. It finally establishes a holding pattern about fifty meters up, and you start seeing what you can see. [3 hits] The warehouse is a large rectangle, with several small, two story office sections sticking out towards the street side. About half of the warehouse is enclosed and the other half is just a metal siding roof on poles, without side walls. Away from the street side, in the part not obscured by the roof there is a parking lot with a couple of trucks in it. The parking lot has a road connecting it to two front entrances along the bottom side. If you had to guess, you would think that trucks would enter through the street side, take the bottom road, and pick up cargo from the far side away from the street.
Moving away from your RCC for a second, you take a second to do a quick matrix search on the address. [4 hits] Hmm, this is 'interesting'. Apparently the warehouse has received awards from the Seattle "Efficiency in Industry" committee, as being an excellent example of warehouse design. On their matrix site, they even have a full blueprint on display, so people can marvel at how efficient it is. Figures. You download it and store it on your commlink.
Then, a quick search on "Eximious" [??
? hits] Nothing. Well, Eximious means excellent in old Latin, but you doubt that will help you. As far as fixers go, you can't find drek.
Bird
Swinging out the door and up the stairs, you pass the subdued bar patrons and the tall security guard on your way out. [1 hit] You get lucky and manage to grab a bus that's heading towards Dash point, full of tired longshoremen. You hop out about a block away and stroll over to see what you can see. [5 hits, capped to 4] The warehouse is surrounded by a 4 meter tall fence topped with barbed wire. The warehouse has two entrances. One is at the north side, which has a keycard scanner and sliding chain link gates. The one near the south side is a checkpoint, in effect. It has a cube for a guard, who is currently sitting there looking at some Trid. The entrance is blocked by traffic barriers, which retract into the ground as a truck enters. The procedure for getting in seems to be a quick chat with the guard and him looking something up on a terminal, which is approved by him, which allows the traffic barrier to retract. A camera is watching the checkpoint. Looking further at the warehouse, you can see what looks like generic offices attached to it. A camera is on the corners of the warehouse, watching the roads, but there are large blind spots. The area around the warehouse has an open lot to the north, and a parking lot to the south. The street is two lanes wide and poorly lit. You notice, also, a small floating drone overhead. Must have been that aerial support.
Wrath
You lean back in your nice padded couch, and feel your soul exit your body. The astral world swirls around you, and you drift over towards the warehouse. When you get there, you try to see what you can see. [3 hits] The first thing you notice is there are no barriers in the area or any special astral presence at all. There are no spirits patrolling or watching the warehouse either. Looks like the place is unguarded from a magical front. You look more closely and you can see one metahuman in the street side of the place, and eight spread out through the various warehouses which you see as a dull shadow. Other than that, the astral is basically bare.
I might have missed something in terms of action, but have a turn. IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE EITHER BOLD YOUR ACTIONS OR PUT THEM AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR POST SEPARATE FROM THE RP STUFF, it makes my life easier. If I missed anything I'll do a small update for the people I missed.
