Blood on the pavement, body parts and bullet shells on the ground.
Some heavily enhanced others not so much.
The message was sent and was taken to the next life for these poor souls.
Crystal Clear for all to hear.
Everybody Dies to The CyberKiller
"You know, I would have been kinder and given more warning, but yall were real jumpy. I guess management in the Claws is just as messy as ever" said the Cyber Cowboy making a examination of the people's he laid to rest.
A loud crash was heard as a volatile scream was let out from one of the bodies as a huge fountain of sparks lit up the now darken area.
"Shoot, nearly got the jump on me, forgot the Firecracker rounds were all i had left" continued Hexen as he turned away to tell Regina face to face that he was heading out for the night.
He'd done his part and earned his Ed's.
It was about time he collected.
Like electricity traveling through her body she instantly awakes in a cold sweat and eyes wide open.
She breaths heavily as her senses are kicked into overdrive taking the scenery of the storage room at Lizzies and then instantly knowing the other person in her the room laying across from her resting on a chair.
Without even looking, without hearing, just feeling the Cybernetics in the person's body and the power being put into them.
It was like seeing without actually seeing, it was all there right before.
Now that she mentioned it, she could see everything every piece of equipment and appliance in the whole fucking building.
It's component it's Power outputs, all of it bare bones to her.
She noticed and simply noticing opened up new fears because if she could do this, then most likely she could the situation going outside and inside.
To have such an ability before her was now beginning to weigh on her shoulders as her mind was punched further to examine the other thoughts and possibilities.
She moved her body so that way she was sitting down properly with her feet on the ground, her body somewhat hunched and her hands on her face.
Aurora appeared before her form catching her off guard as she sensed her but wasn't focused enough to process her movements. slightly leaning down and looking up to her.
"Are you alright?" were the words she used in specefic.
No, Rita did not feel alright. In all honesty, she was feeling a sensory overload as a form of anxiety was beginning to hit her.
The more she thought the more she focused on her new abilities and the more she focused on her new abilities the more she expanded to feel the power flowing not just through lizzies but from the other buildings in the area and that also included other people.
She was breathing heavy she was sweating like a fountain, and her senses were expanding even further out.
As she realized what's was going on outside as her physicla senses were kicking and that allowed her body to connect with the dead mox corpses and injured.
And from that a new form of stress was coming as a new since of anger was settling in.
She was losing it.
And suddenly she felt someone touch her hand.
Yet her hands were in her face. How was this possible.
As all her memories came back to her.
Her time spent in her subconscious.
The Chip and who was on it.
She scanned the inner working of the chip as she felt the presence of the person on it.
For she could nothing more but accept this ghost touch.
This hold of warmth that she could not fully understand yet knew what she was trying to do.
Rita channeled her focus back on herself as her senses were slowly fishing back into herself.
A concept and new reality she would have to get used to.
Her senses were leveled out to the way her senses used to be, for she took this opportunity to stand up from the bed.
And Aurora followed.
It had been at least around 5 to 6 hours since they had been at Rita's home.
And for that time, Aurora was armed sitting at a spot where she had a clear site of the door, so when needed, she'd shoot and kill any Tygers or any thug that wanted to take they're shot.
But now she hated what was happening as at first when she looked into Rita's eyes. There was fear, then it faded as her emotions were steeled, and her eyes glowed a line of purple.
She continued to watch Rita as she got up and was getting her groove back.
Rita looked to Aurora and spoke to her in the simplicity of words.
"We're heading out"
Fuck
Not what Aurora wanted to hear but accepted as she took another 2 puffs of her Air Hypo.
The same sentiments held by NC citizensas a shoot out between the Valentinos and Militech were held out in conjunction with all the violence.
Bullets flew like dragon flys, and bodies dropped like sacks of shit.
Militech putting down a minor tag that wanted to take their shot.
But what they weren't inspecting was a speeding vehicle running them down full speed away.
And colliding with and making them roadkill.
Three militech agents down one still being able to see and was still breathing tried to maintain herself but as the people from the vehicle got out and started dragging her co-workers bodies she eventually caught on to two of the people from the vehicle as they got to her.
She wanted to yell at them to get away, but they took off their helmets to reveal red glowing optics.
Fuck...
In Night City, the Parties last all night and champaign flows like water to those who can afford it.
But the true nature of Night City is only revealed to those who wish to make it a better place.
For "The Wicked Need No Sleep"
