OOC: Thanks Nobby, good ideas, will look into it. Get Gideon out Bishop will act shocked, and apalled at people stealing a person he tried to save. At gunpoint. )

Smith, Silverlion -OOC: Is there a handcart or dolly in the place? That would probably the easiest thing to rig a stretcher out of.
IC: "Bishop, that sounds dicey but we're out of options," says Yoster. "If you think you can silver tongue your way out lets do it. Vaya con Dios my friend, if you get pinched get a message to us and we can work something out." Yoster starts looking around something to MacGuyver a stretcher out of.

Silverlion, Smith -K i have a die in rig, plus the teamwork die. I can't do rolling, so lemme know.
OOC: Where do you wish to go from here?
Séadna -We travel down a few blocks then double back to see if we're being tailed.
Fortune roll - 2D6 = 6, 1: good fortune.OOC: is there some canvas or some shit like that? We can pretend to be doing road work worh a canvas cordon. We'll hide dude inside the canvas square.
Tableclothes?
OOC: Gambits are a seperate metacurrency pool; there was a conversation between myself and Fenris-77 about them a little earlier, but I'll find it in the rulebook if you want.OOC: Can we pause while I find out if I've any option yet to use. Question: Can I call in an ally, for emergency evac? Only a commander, but I served with him. Or could I take a Devil's Deal to get something else to save Gideon? I'm not sure the call in has time, but could I sway someone to call a med-service? (It gets a bonus with my doctor uniform garb) However, "Gambit" on the PC sheet is not listed as me taking stress, its listed as being separate from that, so did I use a Gambit for that? Or is it still free? Me taking stress is an option for a roll, with gambit listed separately, so I maybe confused.

Voros, Séadna - You've arranged a meeting with Nazarovo this evening, but you've picked up a hasty tail as you leave. What do you do?Séadna -
You notice one of the thugs discreetly observing you for a few blocks then he drops off. A little further tradecraft and you identify a seedy looking gentleman who appears to have taken his place.
OOC: I thought you did too but I can't find it. I'll go back through the posts again.OOC: I believe Yoster phoned some contacts looking for a van pickup, yeah. If I didn't actually do that I'm doing it now.
"Let's lead him into a trap, should be easy enough to do. Let's just keep walking until we spot an isolated alley or the like. If I can I'll then quickly get out of sight so he might think you're alone"I speak out of the side of my mouth 'Do we try to lose this tail or lead him into a trap and question him?'

It's not hard to find an alley. Going past a two-storey office building with a sign "Longjing house" you find an alley that goes through to the next block. There's a vehicle park behind the building, what looks like a loading bay for another building and then a couple of other two storey buildings at the other alley."Let's lead him into a trap, should be easy enough to do.

If possible and if there is a moment where they are out of sight of the trail, Espa will use her augments when they reach an alley to parkour up a ladder or fire escape or similar.

Your call to Red Star gets a reply that somebody will be there with a van no-questions-asked in about 15 minutes. You need to find somewhere to go to ground that will keep him hidden that long. Bishop's vital signs monitor shows Gideon as stable but with blood pressure too low for comfort.
As an alternative, you could try and locate a van or truck that you could steal.
OOC: Found it.OOC: I believe Yoster phoned some contacts looking for a van pickup, yeah. If I didn't actually do that I'm doing it now.
Silverlion - You have the option of trying to spin a story that would further deflect the attention of the police. You can take a devil's bargain to add a die to the process of trying to distract the police from your friends, but if it fails the police might become suspicious of you with some extra HEAT.
OOC: The devil's bargain gives you an extra die on the roll, and you have a die in SWAY. Roll 2 dice and see what results you get.I will take the devil's bargain (it's been a while so PM with instructions for rolling.if you don't mind. Lots gone on for me in the past little bit.)
It's not hard to find an alley. Going past a two-storey office building with a sign "Longjing house" you find an alley that goes through to the next block. There's a vehicle park behind the building, what looks like a loading bay for another building and then a couple of other two storey buildings at the other alley.
There are balconies that you can easily jump up to and there are some heat exchangers for ACUs, aerials and other bits of equipment on the roof that you can hide behind. The roof is pitched and looks like it's made from ceramic tiles but you could also run across the roof to the building next door.
Make a SCRAMBLE or SKULK roll to see how well you do. This is a RISKY roll with STANDARD effect.
Voros - You have the option of nonchalantly walking down the alley or trying to lose your tail as well.
I'll switch back and forth for talking loudly into my hand set to shouting at my 'workers' and generally swearing a lot about something that didn't get done and something that didn't show up, and none of that is my goddamn problem, is it? The goal is to be enough of a show that anyone who does look will look at me and not the rest of our sorry little masquerade.
(I don't know where I posted, it gone whoops) "I hope they stay safe.." worries Bishop. ooc roll: 3, 6
OOC: Got a 6Make a SCRAMBLE or SKULK roll to see how well you do. This is a RISKY roll with STANDARD effect.
I continue down the alley.
6 = SuccessOOC: Got a 6
Lets do it. We can figure things out from there. Yoster will drop a text to Bishop telling him to call for the location of today's lunch reservations.
Seeing Lola head into the store, Espa will get into motion with the trap. She will try to wait until she can get a clear literal drop on the pursuer, i.e. jump down upon them and pin them to the ground.You deftly shimmy up the side of the building and conceal yourself behind a row of heat exchangers. From your vantage point you can see someone walk past the end of the alley then hurry down after Lola. They don't appear to have noticed you.
Your PRETERNATURAL ability gives you the ability to leap down from the roof.Seeing Lola head into the store, Espa will get into motion with the trap. She will try to wait until she can get a clear literal drop on the pursuer, i.e. jump down upon them and pin them to the ground.
If the building height is so much that there's no way of doing this without killing or maiming myself or them, Espa will instead drop to street level once they pass and then sneak up and grab them from behind.

Hopefully Bishop rings for directions sooner rather than later...Smith -
The drivers take you a long way south into the Kelley Forest region, and turn up a back road to a dillapidated old farm. There is a printed concrete house that looks like it's seen better days and some outbuildings. Inside the house is run down but habitable.
The driver says "You'll be safe here for a while. We're just trying to rustle up an automed so try to keep him alive for the next few hours."
