Akhain GazhornContact the Republic and inform them of Kosh's demise, collect his body to hand over to them aswell.
[1] - Akhain heads over to the cryo-crate Jinan packed Kosh's body in, but doesn't get further than touching the surface when Jinan coughs politely from behind him. She looks uneasy.
'Err... you're not planning on taking that with you, are you? Upstairs already sort of requested I bring him 'round.' she says. 'And I can't really say no to my superiors. And really, neither can you, now.'

SystarCloak and go in the back door. Start thermal blading loners quietly. If the alarm goes off, start trying to eliminate as many as able while still invisible, grabbing a shotgun if possible.
[1] - Systar heads for the back door, thoroughly checking he's not in sight of any of the gangers - only for the back door to open the moment he reaches for it and a wiry youth with a Snaplock to step out.
[6] Acting quickly, Systar thumbs the Thermal Blade activator and [Dodge:3][Damage:6-12=0] barely hits, the boy's thick coat absorbing the blow. His implant kicking in, [4] Systar's blade jerks back again [Dodge:4] through the ganger's breath visible in the cold air. It does him little good, and the kid [4-1=3][Dodge:1] pushes the barrel of the Snaplock against his stomach. [Damage:16+5=21] His armor absorbs little, and despite the low stopping power of the pistol, he stumbles back and crashes against the trashcans behind him. Systar goes sprawling down, and the boy [4-1=3] lowers the pistol for another shot.
[Dodge:2][Damage:13] It impacts just above the last shot and cracks open Systar's armoured torso. The ganger, looking surprised at his success, turns to look inside the church [2] while the bounty hunter attempts and fails to get back up. [3] The ganger lets out a shout to his comrades inside the church, but Systar finally manages to find the activator on his Cloaking Device and [5] disappears out of view.

GaosaronGao gave the obvious orders. "Fire at the group, I'll take these two bastards!" He fired at the one who was still standing first, since the downed one was injured and would need time to get to his feet... precious time he could use to put down the healthy one.
[1] - Gao goes for the kill, but his target is faster and [4+3=6] leaps at him, both scalpels spinning. [Dodge:1] Both scalpels also sink into Gao's stomach, [Damage:10] and cut straight through his already-damaged armor. [4][Dodge:2] The bounty hunter retaliates and blasts him down with his carbine. [Damage:24] The alien is shredded apart and goes flying, and the bounty hunter turns his attention to the wounded one.
[6][Dodge:4] The alien disappears below the cutting table, however, scampering on all fours like an animal.
[3+1=4] Ratrik lets loose with his beloved Flechette Shotgun again, [Dodges:6/3/1/4/6/1/5][Damages:6-15=0/27+15=42/26+15=41] killing two and scattering the rest. They don't waste any time, [5] all going after their opponent. [Dodges:4/2/2/4/5][Damages:2/4] Their fists and claws do little damage, but they're remarkably ferocious. On their second try, [Dodges:5/4/2/2/5] two hit again, [Damages:6/2] with similar effect.
[4+1=5] Ratrik returns the favor with another Flechette blast, [Dodges:2/1/1/1/2][Damage:42/42+15/41+15/12+15/20] which kills every single one of them. His clip clicks empty, but his implant kicks in and he reloads the weapon faster than the eye can follow.

Subject 971 and Kaviv Otoli971 activated his comm. It would send a vibration to Kavivs own comm-a silent message.
Action: Continue Survelliance. Figure out which way they are heading and arrange for myself to be there.
"Oh dear, I'm sorry Eliza, I must be going! You see, I'm supposed to be getting the, uh, food for the party. Do you like fish? I hope you like fish, I have a special shipment of these giant fish-things, from some place I can't begin to pronounce the name of. They should be very tasty, yes? I will be back in a while, just got to go get them cooked up."
He smiled at Eliza as he rose to his feet, fervently hoping he was pulling of the role of... What? A fish merchant/caterer? ...despite being, in truth, a heavily armed kebab vendor-turned-revolutionary bounty hunter.
Promising to be back in a little while, he hurried out to catch up to 971, grimacing inwardly at himself and trying to force a partygoing grin as he moved through the place. At least he'd found out something about this gang, he supposed, but he'd have to be a bit more... Inconspicous, perhaps, in future.
[4] - 'Umm... okay. I guess I'll see you soon.' Eliza says as Kaviv flees the scene. He follows his partner to the street, locating him only after a thorough scan with his visor.
971 waits for the gangers to make their move in the shadows of an opposite alleyway, [2] which they do a little too quickly. Seeing them out of his view, he rushes after them to find them entering the store they were supposed to keep an eye out. They begin the usual routine with the owner, who doesn't seem particulary nervous or waiting for something. He hands them over cash, then more. Satisfied, they head back out.
[6] The first one puts a hand to his ear abruptly, and 971's scan picks up a commbead in his ear. They exchange a quick bout of words and set off running down the street. Perfect - if they're heading back to base. It's the right direction, atleast.

BaraucCheck If there is any info on his office. Also, Go Implant shopping
[3] - Barauc sets the blueprints and general information on the precinct house downloading - slow business with the outdated systems - and heads out to go implant-shopping. He asks around for the nearest black market implant surgeon and decides to pay a visit to his clinic.
It's all very business-like, and he's shepherded to a board with all available implants listed - special requests cost extra.

LoriaDamn it! Why didn't I think about this in the first place? Loria mentally slaps herself for forgetting even the most basic of surveillance gear. Well, I can't see how this could get much worse. May as well just go take a look around and see if I can get close enough to hear anything. With that she headed up into the apartment building proper, trying to re-locate her targets. Once close enough she'll see if she can find out anything about future meeting locations she can gather solid evidence at.
[5] - The names of the owners are listed in the lobby board, so locating Roskank's and Anthony's apartment isn't difficult. It's on the third floor, first door on the right. Listening in at the door it's obvious they're inside, but she can't make out any words.
After a while, she hears someone coming and detaches herself from the door. The arrival walks right over to the opposite door from her targets and begins working on the lock. She might have some useful information, but otherwise it's beginning to seem Loria might need to wait until the two are gone or asleep so she can strike.
