Dallas yanks the hidden man out of the truck cab and slams him into the alley wall. The Harbor Unit badge on his chest is scuffed raw, and his hand twitches toward his waistband.
The Disgraced Officer
Easy. You shoot me, and you lose the rest of the route.
Murderbone plants himself between the cab and the alley mouth, low and steady, a living barricade. Inside the truck, the red corridor camera keeps blinking like a bad conscience.
Dallas Fontaine
The badge is secondhand, clipped on too clean for a rank man.
The Disgraced Officer
Alder March is only the face. The wedding gets hit at the service entry, then the guests panic, then Dallas Fontaine disappears in the noise.
He winces, breathing hard, and spits out the last piece before his fingers can find steel. Jackson Temple closes in from the alley, cover ready, as the officer's concealed weapon flashes into view.
The Disgraced Officer
There is a second truck. Same window, same crew. If you want your bride alive, you move now.

Force the disgraced officer to reveal the second sabotage team
“I slam my pistol butt on the man's weapon hand to make him drop it while I tell murderbone to pin him.”
SUCCESS (Legendary Agility, rolled -3)
Dallas drives the pistol butt down on the officer’s knuckles. Metal cracks on bone, and the hidden weapon clatters across the wet concrete.
The Disgraced Officer
Agh, hell.
Murderbone surges in on Dallas’s word, shoulder-first, and slams the officer flat against the alley wall before he can scramble for the dropped gun.
Jackson snaps in closer, covering the truck cab while the blinking red camera keeps pulsing over the open door. The cab’s shadow shifts once, deeper than the rest.
The Disgraced Officer
The second team is already staged at the service entry, by the kitchen access.
The Disgraced Officer
They’re using a white maintenance cart, two men, maybe three. When the door opens, they go in fast.
The officer goes pale as he says it, one hand pinned, the other shaking hard against Murderbone’s muzzle. In the truck, something knocks once from the cab floor, and the camera keeps blinking red.
