Harvard's shot catches the ganger square on, but his vest and cyberimplants afford him some resistance to the bullet, however the attack still clearly does some damage.

Hecate's shotgun flechette slug slams into the prone ganger, leaving a hole in the human's chest and obliterating several critical organs on its way through him and into the concrete.

Doc Shadow moves over towards Weatherman as he issues orders to his spirits.
The plant spirit shambles up to and onto NH10, engulfing the ganger with plants and smothering him. From beneath the plant creature a loud, sickening CRACK is heard, and a bit of blood can be seen oozing out from beneath the shambling mass of plants.
Meanwhile, the tiny fairy-like creature grabs Doc's medkit and starts setting up to use it on Weatherman.

NH2 somehow doesn't hear the rotodrone behind it, and leaps through the broken glass, onto the broken table...and then falls the floor. It isn't certain if he intended to do that or not, but he appears to have survived without any damage, so he fires at Hecate, shouting, "I'm gonna frag you, keeb!"
(But he doesn't attack...because leaping through the window is a complex action.)

NH7 hears the whirring of the rotodrone behind him and whirls around, giving the drone what could only be described as a vulgar hand sign before he levels his gun at it.
Weatherman's drone reacts in time, dodging rotating its body around to keep the camera lense out of the line of fire. The bullet hits the drone, dealing no damage.

NH5 rushes through the kicked in door, completely ignores Harvard and the panicking store employee, and begins to pound on the closed door into the private room.

Hecate's HUD flashes another report:

(New combat pass, and the only person who has enough initiative to act in this one is Harvard. Harvard is up!)

Somewhat bemused by the ganger running by him, Harvard turns to face him, aims his Beretta, and let's loose a hail of bullets.

(Long Burst vs. NH5: 13 dice -2 recoil= 1, 2, 1, 5, 4, 5, 6, 4, 5, 3, 2= 4 hits, -5 defense, 6p).

The ganger's jacket and cyberware soaks up most of the damage, leaving him riddled with bullet holes but still standing.

(Doc Shadow (and Eir): 20 Initiative)
(Doc Shadow's Plant Spirit: 20 Initiative)
(Netizen: 11 Initiative)

Suddenly, the van near the kicked-in door spins its wheels and zooms off, tires squealing as the two gangers by it look in confusion at the unexpected development.

Doc was about to start working on Weatherman's injury when he heard the pounding on the door from the ganger. Shouting more orders to his spirits, he has Eir help Weatherman and the Plant Spirit start to deal with NH2. Eir hops down as the dwarf moves to brace the door and starts working with the medkit.
(Treat Injury + LOG + 6 - 3 -1: 3,2,1,2,2,5,4,3 + EDG -> 6,1,6,2,6,4,2 -> 4+1 hits (Limit 4). 2 boxes of healing, going to take 2 combat turns to go into effect. 1 box gets healed now, 1 box will heal on the next turn (not pass).)

The plant spirit shambles off of the corpse of NH10 and looms menacingly towards NH2. The ganger attempts to dodge out of the way to avoid the looming plantmass, but gets engulfed as well.
(2 net hits on attack, 12 base DV and -6 AP, NH10 resists for 5, so 9 DV)

Undeterred, Harvard let's loose another volley at NH5.

(Complex Action: Long burst at NH5: 13 dice - 2 recoil= 6, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 4, 6, 5, 5, 2= 5 hits, -5 defense, 6p)

Harvard's volley of small-arms fire slams into the ganger, who appears to have suffered no injuries from it at all thanks to his armored vest and cybernetic enhancements.
(Harvard used Long Burst! It doesn't affect ganger)

NH9 freaks out about the rotodrone that suddenly appeared next to him, and attempts to swipe at the rotodrone with a set of retractable spurs, which only succeed in scratching the paint of the hovering gun platform.
(Drone Evade: 3 Pilot: 1 hit. Grazing hit, no damage)

(Hecate is up, followed by 3 gangers)

Hecate decides to work on the ganger trying to get through the door. Why not make it easier for them, if they survive? She unloads another narrow burst directly through the door. She loves that booming sound.

15d6 - 6d6 = 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5 (2 hits)

The door seems to have taken some damage from the ganger pounding on it from the other side, and Hecate's well-aimed blast of flechettes flies over Doc's head and blasts a hole through the door and slams into the ganger. The ganger remains standing, but he is clearly reeling from the gunshot wounds.

NH3 swipes at the Weatherman's drone with his spurs, cleaving through the armor and through sensitive electronics. Weatherman's commlink loses the signal from the drone, the words blinking in response to the attack.
(Drone takes 11 damage, which destroys it.)

NH6 dashes into the establishment, laughing maniacally as he waves his machine pistol at the frightened tea shop employee behind the counter.

NH5 decides that standing in the line of fire is a bad idea and instead charges at Harvard, dripping blood as he swings his hand at him in a possibly-futile attempt to attack.
(Harvard needs to roll to dodge)

Netizen's body slumps down further behind the damaged table as he switches to VR and calls up Deputy 5 to help him start taking down the cybered-up gangers.
(Initiative: 9+4d6 = 21 -> +10 to initiative) [simple action]
(Call up Machine Sprite "Deputy 5") [simple action]
(Deputy 5 Initiative: 15+4d6 = 28)

NH2 presumably struggles feebly against the plant spirit that engulfed it, but no outward sign of movement is seen.

(Weatherman is up)

Weatherman spends a simple action to draw his Ruger Super Warhawk, and spends his second simple action to ready to attack the first bad guy to come into view (NH3, NH7, NH8). "3 more coming from the south, look alive"

Another ganger comes barrelling down the entrance hall, Hecate can see him through the hole she just blasted in the door, and Harvard can just barely see him terrorizing the tea shop employee around the corner.

NH7 leaps through the broken window, dodges Weatherman's shot, and starts to attack the plant spirit, which evades the madman's strike.

Harvard can see NH8 take a swing at Weatherman's van, but the ganger regrets it and pulls his hand away after presumably hurting himself.

(TURN 2, PASS 2 STARTS)
Deputy 5 sits around in the Matrix waiting for orders...

Netizen commands Deputy 5 to use Gremlins on NH6's cybereyes. (6+6[7] vs 2+2 -> 4 vs 1 -> NH6's cybereyes suffer a glitch).
Netizen calls up Deputy 4.
(Deputy 4 initiative: 4d6+13 = 28)

Doc's ears are still ringing from the nearby shotgun blast. He looks out at NH7 and shouts, "Burn, you racist pig!" clearly not amused at the meta-hating gangers, one of the charms around his wrist clinking as he does. The ganger looks puzzled, and then erupts in roaring flames.
(Casting Force 6 ignite. 5 + 6 [6] vs BOD + REA -> (5+1) vs 1 -> 5 net hits vs resist 0 (crit glitch) -> 5 fire damage, plus immediate 3 from glitch)
(Drain resisted)

Doc's plant spirit continues to smother NH2, with another sickening crack signifying the demise of another ganger.
(12 DV vs 2 hits on resist (BOD+Armor w/-6 AP) -> 10 DV, NH2 is quite, quite dead.)

(Harvard is up)

Obviously annoyed that his weapon seems to be ineffective, Harvard drops his Beretta with a snarl, and whips out his Colt quickly enough to have a shot fired at the seemingly bullet-resistant ganger.

(Simple action to put away the Beretta
Simple Action to quickdraw the Colt: Pistols + REA= 5 4 3 6 3 5 4 3 4= 3 hits
Single Shot against the bullet-proof man: 6 3 5 3 5 1 4 1 2 2=3 hits, spending 1 point of edge to reroll misses: 3 5 6 3 2 2 2= +2 hits: 10p, -2ap)

Harvard's quick-shooting catches the ganger off guard and the round from the Colt catches the cybered-up human square between the eyes, killing him instantly and obliterating a fair portion of his face. Then the explosive charge in the round goes off, splattering the walls and Harvard with gore and gray matter as the ganger's head is obliterated.

(Hecate is up, and Hecate can sorta see NH4 through the shot-through door (I'd say its a -3 penalty to the dice pool))
