Two Friends in Need! was an Assassin mission that took place in 2016.[1]
Two Assassins from a different cell from that of the Crew are currently camped in an abandoned train station in the suburbs, to spy on an Abstergo storehouse. Their techie informs the PCs' cell that Abstergo agents are suspiciously moving toward the location, and she's not able to communicate with the two to warn them. The PCs are the closest to the station and must intervene quickly.
The PCs must reach the railroad station fast, ensuring they reach their companions before the Abstergo agents.
Challenges
Fast and Furious: The PCs are driving fast through London's traffic on their van. Given the high speed, any Approach check made to overcome this Challenge requires 1 additional Raise.
Brotherhood: The PCs must convince the two Assassins they are members of the Brotherhood too and that they must leave immediately.
Weaknesses
Stealing Motorbikes (minor): If the PCs possess or manage to steal motorbikes or other vehicles that can move swiftly through the traffic, they overcome the Fast and Furious Challenge.
The Abstergo agents surrounded the place. The Assassins must escape using their freerunning abilities.
Challenges
Climb for your life: The PCs must rapidly climb the steel structure to escape. The metal framework is rusty and wet, and most of the holds are slippery. Any Approach check made to climb requires 1 additional Raise.
Leap of Faith: As the chase continues, a chance for the PCs to lose their pursuers presents itself when they reach a riverbank. By reaching an elevated position they can leap into the cold water ending the chase.
Weaknesses
Communication disruption (minor): The PCs might find a way to jam communications between the approaching Abstergo agents. If they do so, they can gain a significant tactical advantage. For the rest of the Sequence, when any of the PCs makes a Reaction check in response to encounters with Abstergo agents, they can reroll up to 1 Abstergo results.
