We resume our duties on our next shift, but we are all kind of tense about all of the things that have gone on.\u00a0 Fortunately it is a quiet shift, until a call comes in around 9 pm.\u00a0 It is on the other side of our patrol area so we have a ways to go.\u00a0 Mari says hold on and starts speeding there.\u00a0 The patient is\u00a0 Ben Adkins, 31, human, and is basically healthy, but he has a hazardous occupation although it doesn’t say what.\u00a0 Blood pressure is low and dropping.\u00a0 It takes us 20 min to get there.\u00a0 We arrive at Zee’s Club.<\/p>\n

Thumper leads the way as we move to the door.\u00a0 The bouncer confirms our ID and lets us in.\u00a0 Inside it is loud, crowded, and hard to see.\u00a0 Isaac cant find the guy so we talk to the bartender.\u00a0 He says there is another business in the basement that is not part of the bar.\u00a0 He goes around to the back of the bar and opens a hidden door.\u00a0 We head down the secret steps into the basement.\u00a0 We hear different music, much more grinding.\u00a0 Two guards in security armor approach us and try to stop us.\u00a0 The trolls keep going and we follow them in.\u00a0 As we look into the club there are 2 trolls just beating on each other in the center of the floor.\u00a0 There are a bunch of orc gangers and others around the floor, watching the fight.\u00a0 They are Sewer Rats.\u00a0 We also see a guy in a very expensive suit and a woman with blue eyes.\u00a0 She is very powerful in magic and a little bored but intrigued.\u00a0 We see the signal is coming from the back of the club.\u00a0 The bouncer says that the ambulance crew already arrived.<\/p>\n

We get to the patient and see the other crew from Crash Cart., 2 guards and 2 medics.\u00a0 They try to stop us and say that they were here first.\u00a0 They pull up their guns and point them at us.\u00a0 Espadas rolls in and slices the barrels off of the guards guns.\u00a0 Thumper thumps one of the medics in the face, and he lands on his back like a sack of ham.\u00a0 Ryoshi and Isaac move past the stunned Crash Cart guys and move towards the patient.\u00a0 The rest of the crew follows.\u00a0 Ryoshi kicks in the door (everyone else is very impressed).<\/p>\n

We see the patient on the ground in a pool of blood with a woman bending over him.\u00a0 He has been beaten to a pulp and is close to bleeding out.\u00a0 He is not even recognizable.\u00a0 We slap on a Trauma patch and start moving him and his girlfriend out of here.\u00a0 Two trolls start to block our way and say that Ben has to fight and they own him.\u00a0 Ben comes around a little and says he wants to fight.\u00a0 We keep talking to the troll bouncers, and to Ben to try and keep the fight from happening, but he really wants to fight and is willing to waive his Doc Wagon contract.\u00a0 Isaac slaps a Tranq patch on him to try and keep him down.\u00a0 He passes out.<\/p>\n

We tell the troll manager that he can’t fight but he will be able to find him once he is healed.\u00a0 We keep moving out.\u00a0 On the way out we notice a person in the crowd with a Universal Brotherhood symbol.\u00a0 Espadas assenses her and she is a magic user, very strong but the aura is strange.\u00a0 She also has some cyberware.\u00a0 We carry the guy out of the club and to the ambulance.\u00a0 We start treating him in the ambulance and start driving to the hospital.\u00a0 We get him there and get him secured.<\/p>\n

On the way out we run into Dr. Hyun.\u00a0 She tells us that her man we talked to after the explosion has since passed away.\u00a0 We are not surprised.\u00a0 Our shift concludes and tomorrow we are on duty in the station.<\/p>\n

We head to the Triple Tap for a drink after a weird night.\u00a0 We run into Bright there along with his new crew.\u00a0 He is really happy to be back doing medical work.\u00a0 We eat and decide to go and look at another of the Sewer Rat sites that was flagged on our map, the one by the old Gold Coast.\u00a0 We know that this mostly run down and inhabited by homeless people.\u00a0 We do see one cluster of people hanging around some of the remaining buildings.\u00a0 These people seem to have better clothing and are more on watch.\u00a0 We settle in and watch them.\u00a0 After a while a van backs up to a side door.\u00a0 Looking through his scope, Ryoshi sees crates similar to the ones we saw in the warehouse.\u00a0 There are 4 orcs helping with the crates.<\/p>\n

After the van pulls away we decide to hit the gangers and take the weapons off the street.\u00a0 Espadas sneaks up to the gangers and hits two of them with his swords.\u00a0 They both die instantly.\u00a0 One of the remaining guys notice the sound but Ryoshi drops him.<\/p>\n

Isaac uses his Maglock key on the warehouse door.\u00a0 He opens it and we look inside.\u00a0 There are 4 more gangers opening the crates.\u00a0 Combat ensues.\u00a0 Ryoshi hits one of the gangers, but doesn’t get through his armor.\u00a0 Thumper kills one with his shotgun.\u00a0 They shoot back and Icebox is hit, but he shakes it off.\u00a0 Icebox hits the guy who hit him.\u00a0 Espadas charges in and takes out two guys.\u00a0 Ryoshi drops the last one.<\/p>\n

We start looking at the crates but hear more voices from behind the other door in the room.\u00a0 They say go around and several others try coming through the door.\u00a0 Several of the crates had grenades and Espadas throws two of them at the door they are coming through.\u00a0 A bunch of them drop, but one of the grenades bounces back and Espadas catches the edge of the blast, but he is OK.\u00a0 Thumper also takes out several with another grenade.<\/p>\n

Icebox shoots and he shoots Espadas in the back, in spite of the Joker.<\/p>\n

We dispatch the remaining gangers.<\/p>\n

We hear other noises from in the building.\u00a0 We grab what we can carry and Thumper shoots a rocket into what is left to blow the rest up.<\/p>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

Thumper gets caught in the explosion but manages to not die.\u00a0 Mari comes an picks us up and gets us all back to the Triple Tap.\u00a0 We stash the weapons we took.\u00a0 Isaac gets a message from an anonymous person.\u00a0 An older man’s face appears on the screen.\u00a0 Isaac recognizes him as the guy who was with the blue eyed girl in the basement bar.\u00a0 His name is Vincent Dupree and he is an executive at Saeder Krupp.\u00a0 He asks to meet when it is convenient.<\/p>\n
