• Pins has been working as a bouncer at Dantes Inferno

Monday 8th May 2062, midday

• Shade receives a call from Mr Sommers - meet arranged at Dantes Inferno at 12 midday
• Dante receives call from Mr Sommers to hire the club for a meet - and asks if he knows of any available Shadowrunners.
• Dante asks Blaze if she's interested, as well as his bouncer, Pins. Both say yes. (poor fools)
• Shade arrives shortly after midday to find the club locked. He knocks and gains entrance. He is taken down to a private bar where he's offered a drink. (Bad Move)

<<<<< Missing Events >>>>>

Tuesday 9th May 2062, 1pm

• Blaze, Pins, and Shade all wake up in a hotel room, their last memory is meeting in Dantes Inferno.
• On the table in the hotel room they find a Tri D Chip and a certified Cred Stick.
• The Tri D Chip contains a recorded message by Buttercup stating that we have done her a great service, and she owes each of us a favour. She provides a secure dead-matrix drop location so we can be in communication with her in case we ever need her or she wishes to offer us a job.
• On the Cred Stick is 120,000nuyen - 40,000 nuyen each.
• Also on the table is a small amulet, formed from two bronzish rings, and a green gem.
• After some confusion on what's going on, where they are, room service arrives with breakfast, and the team are informed they are in the Yamatetsu suite of the Seattle Hilton which has been prepaid for 1 week.
• Next the valet arrives and hands Pins seemingly new car keys, heading down stairs the team see Pins' old Land Rover all smashed up, and a new luxury Land Rover pulls up which is his new vehicle.
• The team are utterly confused, and head to see Dr Faulks for information on this amulet.
• On the way there Shade drops in at home to pick up some things, to find home is a smoking crater (sort of) - he is shocked. Everyone fears it was Blaze's fault (especially her)
• Although we can't work out how it does so, it apparently seems the amulet masks wearer to appear mundane - even so far as blocking the appearance of Cyber Ware.
• Blaze keeps the amulet (which turns out to be the Amulet Of Shadows), along with a rating 6 conjuring focus she awoke with.

Epilogue

• Shade is invited to stay with Blaze for a while until he can find a new place to live.

Cast of Shadows

• Dante - Owner of Dantes Inferno, contact of Blaze
• Buttercup

Organisations and Corporations

• Dantes Inferno - Night Club in Down Town Seattle. Based upon the poet's Dante's vision of Hell. Apparently (through some Retroactive Continutity) Blaze works here a few hours a week and Pins was working as a bouncer for an indeterminate length of time.
