Just over half the time has passed that the trip was though to take, meaning she's quite close already, Echo's voice comes over the encrypted channel: "You read me?"
Air is sneaking around an abandoned multistory building in the South Sunrise district as Echo comes in range of comms. «I'm here. Careful! I'm out of ammo, did you get anything from home? Best leave your bike where it is and sneak.» That's his advice, transduced over the waves as he keeps a slow prowl himself, somewhere on the third floor.
«Plot» Echo says, "and what, of his stuff, could i have picked up along the way in my stop at the apartment, in addition to my two 'run guns'?"
«Plot» Echo was in a hurry, of course.
«Plot» Air says, "He keeps everything in that storage area. If you haven't nosied around in there, roll 1 die. 1-4 is a spare pistol, 5 an SMG and 6 an assault rifle."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls 1:
3
«Plot» Air says, "Your choice of: Cavalier Deputy, or the Beretta Hellbore."
«Plot» Echo says, "heh. make it the beretta hellbore… it was, basically, right out inthe open…and this /is/ an emergency."
Echo transduces in reply, "I'll leave my bike in front of this self-defense academy place… update me your position. I have my own two guns… and… uhm… one of yours with one clip of ammo for it…"

Air drops down to the second level and glances around, the only weapon on him glinting in the dull light is his handblade. «Only one? Well, it's better than none. I'm in this building.» He fires a short databurst over the radio, with his very undetailed map of the area marked with his location. A building a couple of blocks away from the dojo.
«Plot» Echo will try to Parkour her way up onto the rooftops across the street from the AASD place, to use the rooftops to sneak her way there.
«Plot» Air says, "Athletics roll, base TN is 6- any mods. Climbing spec applies."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls Athletics vs TN 6:
1 8 9 9 = 3 Successes
«Plot» Air says, "You scamper up a couple of stories to the roof and get on your way"
Echo pulls her bike into the parking lot of the Aurora Academy of Self-Defense and kills the engine before it's even to where she's aiming to park it, letting it coast into place… and then she doesn't waste time with the kick-stand, simply laying the bike down to break off at a run in the direction of Air's latest position, per the transmition he'd previously sent to her, ducking into an alleyway across the street from the dojo. Once in the alley, she leaps up onto an old, overturned dumpster and from there up to grab, with outstretched hands, onto a windowsill. From there, she pulls herself up… then jumps up again to the next windowsill, and up again from there to the roof. Transducing over the secure channel she shares with Air, she transmits, "I'm coming via rooftops", including her location on a map, including her direction of travel and her best guess at her distance. Once on the roof, she gets low and slower, pulling out her silenced pistol as she starts stealthing her way closer to where Air's hiding.

Commlink-Lucky> Air says, "These guys will be scanning comms, change to the next freq."
Commlink-Razorgirl> Echo says, "Check."
Air switches over to the pre-arranged frequency as he says that, squelxhing out any reply. Even as he does he hears a boot scratch on the dusty, debris strewn floor behind him. His wires kick in and he flings himself sideways behind an old couch vbefore he's even registered what he heard.
Fully automatic fire rips the quietness of the night in half as the goon stitches his bullets -very- closely behind Air, and then another, shorter burst immediately after it.

«Plot» Air says, "The first bullet pings the armor, the second penetrates for a light wound."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) uses 2 of item 3: APDS - Heavy Pistol Rounds from Ammo (#10191).
Echo, as she spots the sniper and announces his presence, drops to a crouch and pulls the trigger on her silence pistol - twice. PUFF! PUFF! The two bullets find their mark, one going through the short wall behind which he hides, which slows it enough that the armor-piercing round pings off his armor. The second shot, however, goes over the wall and into his upper arm, cutting into the armor like it is designed to do.

Air takes two steps and leaps out of the second floor window justa s Echo engages the sniper above. Glass shatters and follows him out as he leaps, falling the five meters from the window to the ground. hitting with a grunt and tucking and rolling he jumps to his feet and slides around a wrecked car husk, panting heavily. «I'm on the ground.»
«Plot» Air says, "Now inits."

Echo transduces, "I've got the sniper's attention… get to my bike. The jack-start password is 'Asteroids'", as she prepares to try and /keep/ the sniper's attention.
Commlink-Lucky> Air says, "Toss me the gun!"
Air remains somewhat hidden behind the car in the meantime, eyes scanning the nearby rooftops for signs of Echo.
«Auto-Judge[]» Air (#8050) rolls 6 + Combat Pool: 3 vs TN 8 for "3 round burst, 11S base at Air.":

«Plot» Air dodges both.
The goon that had found Air follows him quickly to the window, his form becomming visible as he knocks the remaining glass out. The dengerous looking assault rifle pokes out, aims down towards the car and starts spitting out rounds. One burst, two bursts, loud and echoing around the street, bullets pinging off the car forcing air to duck his head and crawl along towards the other end.
«Plot» Air says, "The other goon misses a turn moving."
«Plot» Air says, "The last goon raises his rifle and takes a shot at Echo."

«Plot» Air says, "Your action?"
«Plot» Echo wonders if she can have a perception check to track Air's location by sound to toss the pistol she's holding in the right direction?
«Plot» Air says, "Roll int."
«Plot» Echo says, "has my orientation system, with ultrasound, gotten a good map of the area?"
«Plot» Air says, "Not really, you're above street level so you haven't got a map of the area Air is in yet."
«Plot» Air says, "You're still some meters away from the roofs edge"

«Plot» Echo will be toss the pistol she has in hand, her ares pred3 with 13 APDS ammo bullets left in the clip, over the edge to him, and then pull her steyr tmp. can i move to cover at the same time?
«Plot» Air says, "Sure, you already have a little but you can gain some more behind a ventilation thingy."
«Plot» Air says, "Roll throwing weapons (default to int) to get the pistol Air."
«Plot» Echo says, "can i default to Athletics for the throw, instead, for an easier tn?"

«Plot» Echo says, "plot can i draw my steyr /and/ get to cover at the same time?"
«Plot» Air says, "Yes, but then you're out of actions."
«Plot» Echo says, "i'll draw and get to cover then."
Echo transmits, "My Ares Pred coming down to you", as she moves closer to the edge and tosses the weapon over, so that it falls right down to Air. As she takes the two steps needed to do this, the sniper fires at her and the bullet hits the sleeve of her jacket - and the secure armor jacket stops it! She takes a third step and then slides on her the knee-guards that are part of her boots, ending up behind an air-conditioning machine, pulling out her little machine pistol as she does. "Taking fire up here!", she transmits.
«Plot» Air has to spend an action collecting the Pred, will fire back at the goon in the window.

Air scrambles on his hands and knees over to the Predator where it fell, scrabbling backwards after grabbing it. Spending that crucial moment to sync with the onboard smartlink-2, the reticle booting into hisn vision as he spins round. Laying his arm down over the trunk of the car he aims up, firing once at the goon in the window, who dodges deftly to the side, then re-appears and fires a quick burst at Air, the bullets pattering and piercing the car, but not hitting Air.
«Plot» Air says, "Goon3 still doesn't appear yet. Snipergoon takes another shot at Echo."

«Plot» Air says, "He takes a mod on top of his L."
The sniper on the roof aims for where Echo's hiding, and fires at her as she pops up to take a shot. The bullet ricocheting off into the darkness and leaving a mark on her helmet where it struck its glancing blow. Echo pulls the trigger on her little machine pistol twice. The first burst traces across the sniper's armored chest, the bullets landing in a neat little group on his left side - which makes him spin around a bit from the impact. This has the unfortunate side effect of making Echo's second burst, fired into the same area, completely miss her target! The rat-a-tat of the machine pistol firing in burst mode is /easily/ heard - the weapon isn't silenced in any way!
«Plot» Air will try to hit that damn assault rifle goon now.

Air pulls the trigger again immediately as the goon comes back into view. He may have dodged his first shot and fired back, but that was his error. Air had already killed two of this squad when he emptied his Cerberus and Thunderbolt. Now he has a pistol with ammo again, he looks keen to finish the rest off. The two shots hit the goon squarely in the chest, whose next burst goes off target.
Only one problem with that, his aim -was- off, Air hitting him put him -on- target and the burst fires right through the car into Air's chest, thankfully resisted by the armour he wears. Just as the assault rifle goon pulls back into cover the last remaining Yakashima goon appears at the ground floor, toting a heavy pistol which he immediately fires at Air twice, finding his target twice too. The Swede falls back behind the car as the two bullet slam high in his chest, knocking him over.

«Plot» Air is forced to attack pistol goon, no other visible targets.

«Plot» Air says, "Takes D+1 box. Has 4 boxes overflow, bleeds to death in 1 turns."
Air throws himself bodily against the car as soon as he can get off the floor again. His smartlink is telling him that his target has ogne out of sight, and also blinking up a new target. The goon at ground level, with a nice red highlight around him. The reticle is brought to bear over his main body mass, the silenced little pistol firing out the two hardened armour piercing rounds perfectly. His natural strength resists the recoil and the second shot lands a mere inch from the first, both penetrating through the security armour and slicing internal organs apart. The goon shudders, spasms and then falls to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth all over the inside of his visor.
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) uses 5 of item 3: APDS - Heavy Pistol Rounds from Ammo (#10191).
«Plot» Air says, "Sniper and Assault Rifle are out of sight. Your action?"
«Plot» Echo says, "tracking sniper by sound? i have a /good/ map of this rooftop for a bonus of 4."
«Plot» Air says, "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't make it clear. You have a road between you and the roof he was on."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls Intelligence:
1 2 4 4 5 5
«Plot» Air says, "He drops down to the level below and you lose him."
«Plot» Echo will move to get off the rooftop now. Is there a lower rooftop nearby to which I can jump, to acutally make use of Parkour to land and keep moving? eventual goal is to get to the ground, of course.
«Plot» Air says, "You know you could make the landing straight to the ground, or you could leap the space to your left to a roof one level lower."
«Plot» Echo says, "which is easier on the tn?"
«Plot» Echo says, "and… what would my tns be? (and would cp apply?)"
«Plot» Air says, "Straight to the ground is gonna be parkour at TN 7, then your soak depends on how good you do."
«Plot» Air says, "Across the space, TN 5 to jump across and a much lower soak."
«Plot» Echo will go across, then.
«Plot» Air says, "TN 5 to make it, Soak 3L falling damage (half impact counts)"
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls Athletics (Parkour) vs TN 5:
2 3 4 4 8 11 = 2 Successes
«Plot» Air says, "And I assume you have 2 impact armour, so 2L damage to soak."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls Body vs TN 2 for "3L soak (-5 for impact armor, tn 2 minimum)":
2 3 3 4 5 5 = 6 Successes
«Plot» Air says, "You make it without a problem. You could continue all the way to the ground if you wanted now."
«Plot» Air says, "Tn is now 5 to the ground, soak depending on successes."

«Plot» Air says, "You get to the ground uninjured."
Echo transmits, "Sniper wounded, bugging out. Getting to ground level!", and is up and moving, leaping out across the ally to a lower rooftop, landing, rolling, and back up on her feet to hop over an airconditioning duct to take two more steps before leaping off down into the street, below. She lands, tucks, rolls, and is back up on her feet, headed in the direction of her bike.
Air has his head over the car, watching, waiting. When Echo comms he jumps up and heads right for the building. «I can't let them get away!» He doesn't waste any time trying to explain, he just charges into the building after them.
Echo transmits, as she skids to a stop to go and help with this, "Sniper went down off the roof -here-", and transmits as good a map as she can, with the sniper's last known location.
«Auto-Judge[]» Air (#8050) rolls Intelligence + 5 for "Locating by sound, +4":

«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) has the Attribute Quickness with the value '7 (12)'.
«Plot» Air says, "We're both moving at 39 meters per turn."
«Plot» Air says, "So Air will reach them first, Echo arrives one turn later."
«Plot» Echo says, "do i have actions enough to swap my current magazine for a fully loaded one as i run?"
«Plot» Air says, "Simple to remove, simple to insert."
«Plot» Echo says, "can i do that as i sprint, tho?"
«Plot» Air says, "Yep, moving isn't an action in SR"
«Plot» Air says, "It just imposes penalties."
Air dissapears into the building, having to jump over the now dead body of the pistol goon to do so. In seconds he's caught up to the sniper, who took longer to exit the building sinde he was on a higher floor. «Got the sniper, you keep going!»
As she runs, Echo swaps magazines for her machine pistol, so that she has a full load of ammo. She replies, via the cyberradio: "Check."
«Auto-Judge[]» Air (#8050) rolls Initiative:

«Plot» Air says, "Uh, that's +15 for me so…. maximum. 33."

«Plot» Air says, "He takes an S, he goes down with overflow."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) uses 3 of item 3: APDS - Heavy Pistol Rounds from Ammo (#10191).
Air catches the sniper first, who seems to be pretty fast on his feet too. Unfortunately for him Air is still uninjured, if more than a little stressed and winded. His first shot goes a little wide, but the second pings solidly in the armour of the snipers back, digging in and drawing a trickle of blood.
The sniper yells out as he twists around, pointing his rifle vaguely behind him and pulling the trigger. He fires pitifully wide, and Air's return shot nails him in the back of the head, drilling his face forward, his still running legs piledriving him into the assorted debris on the floor. The body slides to a stop, a smear of red blood behind it as Air watches Echo speed right past.
«Plot» Air says, "You turn a corner and find the AR goon apparently waiting, a mere 5 meters away. Roll int."

«Plot» Air says, "You surprise him, what do you do?"
«Plot» Echo says, "surprise, huh? …hm. he behind cover?"
«Plot» Air says, "Just stood there."
«Plot» Air says, "Like, in the open in the alley. Weapon not readied."
«Plot» Echo will give a 10-round full-auto burst on him. (but i forget the effects of this on tn and damage)
«Plot» Echo says, "make that a 9-round burst."
«Plot» Air says, "It's +9 power and +3 damage levels."
«Plot» Air says, "And +4 TN."
«Plot» Air says, "So TN 6."
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) rolls Pistols + Combat Pool: 4 vs TN 6 for "6L base + 9 power + 3 levels = 15D on hit":

«Plot» Echo says, "i forgot ExEx ammo. 17D damage."
«Plot» Echo says, "no diff by that roll, tho"
«Plot» Air says, "He takes a Serious on top of his 4 boxes and falls over at 10 phys."
Echo bolts around the corner and skids to a stop with her Steyr TMP extended in front of her. About fifteen feet away, the goon with the assault rifle looks up, eyes wide behind his helmet as he's caught totally by surprise as she unleashes a hail of bullets in his direction. The bullets traces a bloody line of pock-marks up the front of his body and send him reeling backwards, to fall to the ground!
Air skids around the corner just behind Echo as she does that, his boots not finding any purcahse on the rubbish strewn around the alley. He loses his footing, sliding down to land hard on his backside behind her. Reverting to his real voice he gasps in air as he looks at the stricken goon, "Good job…"
«Plot» Echo says, "what kinda assault rifle he carrying?"
«Plot» Air says, "Ares Alpha, pretty extensively modified."
Echo walks over to the goon… and pumps another, single, round into his chest from point-blank range - a 'make sure he STAYS down for good' shot. She then snatches up the assault rifle and turns to look at Air. "Get off your ass and let's get outta here in case they got backup coming!", she transmits on the encrypted radio channel, already starting back to where she left her bike.
Air waves his hands, staying put where he is. «They don't have any backup. Trust me. I know them.» Only then does he make an effoert to get up and turns to head back to the others. «Check that guy for his radio, anything valuable.» He himself heading in to check the others.
«Auto-Judge[]» Echo (#2477) uses 10 of item 1: ExEx Machine Pistol Ammo from Ammo (#10191).
Echo nods her head, slinging the rifle crosswise across her body after holstering her pistol. She does take a moment to hold out a fresh clip of APDS ammo for the pistol Air's using. "Here… just in case", she says, actually speaking it. Only then does she turn to check the body for valuables. Over the radio, again, though, she asks, «Where's your car? We'll need your trunkspace to get some of this stuff home….»
Air takes the clip and switches it for the mostly empty one in the pistol. Keeping it in hand he comms back as he heads into the building, «Chrome car park.»
