The Lights shined upon the parking lot as the crowd were watching a spectacle before they're optics.

For this fight had taken it's wild twists and turns from The Bouncer dominating then Guest and then the guest dominating the bouncer to now them both being on the brink to collapse.

Rich did not expect for the other Implants she had as they weren't enhancements for her Sandevistan.

No they were different aspects to help keep her in a fight and help her adapt in a fight.

Memory Boost

Visual Cortex Support

Kiroshi Optic MK.2

Biomonitor

Neo Fiber

She had completely stopped using her Sandevistan and regulated her other Implants to match him.

Using the Biomonitor to restore the damages he had done to her probably idling around 30%.

Using her Kiroshi Optics at 20% to keep her attention on what he's doing and movements he's making.

And the Visual Cortex Support idling at 10% enhancing her Kiroshi's.

Memory Booster at 20% to get a great visual of every punch he threw and how he timed them and threw them.

And the Neofiber enhancing her strength so she can do further damage.

This Bitch completely switched up her style in the middle of the fight and had now devalued his only plan of attack.

What The Fuck.

Now they were both bloody messes at this point.

At this point they were duking it out with nothing but willpower and enhancements.

And the next landed strike would be the last one.

Rich went in for a feint with his left and was going to follow up with a right but she saw right through that as she swung right down the middle and that forced him to side step the swing as he throwing all precaution in the wind.

He knew she couldn't take anymore and she knew he was at his wits end.

As he was going in for a heavy Left hook, and she was coming in with a swing coming from the bottom.

As the bat meet Nothing but air as Rich had successfully duped her into leaving herself open by using his Fortified Tendons to double jump over her and brought down all the momentum he built up to bring down to earth upon this woman's face.

As she tried to block the coming punch with her bat but his fist slipped past her weapons as she felt the full impact of his fist as he sent her head straight into the concrete.

The crowd went nuts, the lights shined upon both fighters as he raised his hand in victory so he can proudly say.

He knocked her The Fuck Out.

As he then fell back on his ass slipping into unconsciousness.

How long had it been sense he had rested.

Now that he thought about it, he hadn't slept for the past 3 days.

And it felt good to finally relax as he waited for his system to reboot.

Which was going smoothly, latest system updates already downloaded and installing, Implants going through resynchronization, Relay tests complete, functionality at 100%, Stress Levels below usual range.

Well won't you look at that, he was a healthy boy with a healthy heavily modified noodle.

As his visual optics activated revealing to him the barrel of a rifle in his face as the wielder was the current leader of The Mox.

Susie Q.

"Piece Of Shit, Scrap" spoke the leader of The Mox as her eyes held fire that could melt the most Dense of materials.

"Suz, I already told you, I Picked The Fight, he was just the poor bastard that happened to be at the wrong place at the right time" defended to bouncer who already healed from her injuries.

"Shut Up" said Susie as she didn't even look at her fellow mox her focus was 100% on Rich as the Relationship between Susie and Rich went back along time ago to 2075.

"How does it feel, being on the other side of the barrel, knowing that your life is in the mercy of someone you don't even know" spoke the Mox leader as memories of that night flashed in her mind.

And Rich didn't have a proper response to it because he knew what he did to her.

How he embarrassed and humiliated her.

How he left her feeble and useless.

And that was the only reason she was here today and that was because he had grown bored of her wimpers...

At that time in his life it was about power, strength, and what you could do to someone simply by pointing a gun at someone's head or simply cutting deep in flesh to get the point across that this was no laughing matter.

He had her in the palm of his hand and now the roles were reversed.

"I feel cold" spoke Rich as it was the only thing he felt in this moment he could say truthfully for he could not ever understand how she felt.

For Susie this was the last straw as the answer given was an absolute insult to the amount of horrors Maelstrom as well as Rich himself had to not just done to the Mox but every gang in Night City, as well as the civilians.

She was going to pull the trigger.

Until a familiar voice stopped her.

"It's my fault Susie" spoke Mateo as he had come to Riches defense.

"If I didn't tell him to come back here he wouldn't be here right now" continued Mateo as he explained the situation to his boss.

"We don't need beef with another gang specially one so close to our doorstep" spoke the Bouncer trying to reason with Susie.

Susie didn't take her eyes off Rich for a second.

She hated this situation, she hated who it was about, she hated that she couldn't just pull the trigger and be done with a shadow from her past.

But there was too much at risk and The Mox were already in another situation all together.

To pick another fight with another gang was suicide.

"Get out of here" spoke Susie with a grave voice.

Rich knew when he wasn't wanted and honestly he should have saw this coming eventually he knew his history with Susie.

Just because he didn't see her last time didn't mean she wouldn't eventually find out.

He left, walked right out the front door, walked to his car which was in the dark Ally and took off.

No good byes, no see you laters, this was his fault.

This is what he gets for Trying to be Normal.

To Be Continued.
