Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Almost to the beginning

4 Months Later 

I was sitting in My office with Lucy on my lap when the door opened and Kiwi came in looking way different than 2 months ago. she is still a tall and slender woman. But her most notable feature the red mask that covers her lower face and jaw, was now a normal-looking jaw. She has light blonde hair but now she was letting it grow instead of the bob cut and angular feline eyes. Her body, which seems to be heavily modified with Cyberware, was now looking more organic in appearance since she has done a couple of surgeries with the extra money she has now.

"We are going to need to remodel this office, is pretty small, and also you should get a turret installed by the emergency door since that is the only place we lack security"

"Ok I'll call the construction company to remodel my office next week"

"Good we don't want anyone trying to pull the same thing we did, Ohh before I forget Adam Ibrahimovic and Larry Fanghorn called with an offer to buy the club"

"The answer is still no, I will contact them later to make myself clear don't worry about it"

The day went by normally after that and we only discussed the finances of the club. I am so happy our plan went exactly as I thought. After we took Faraday to the cabin by the lake. I had Lucy and Kiwi enter Faraday's mind to get everything he owed and transfer it to me since that little shit wanted to be a corpo rat. I granted him the full experience and took everything he had before killing him.

Faraday was supremely rich, although not as rich as those Corpo elites he was still loaded. I have under my name everything he owed. The Club I renamed GM's Club and Bar (GM=Gloria Martinez), 2 Gun shops, a Ripper shop, a Netrunner shop, his penthouse in the complex above us, 4 Cars that I gave to Lucy, Falco, Rebeca, and Kiwi since they help with the job, 10,750,771EU from all of his accounts-(I gave 1,500,000EU to Lucy, Kiwi, and Beca. Falco, I had to force him to accept 1,000,000EU since he said he did not need much, since all he did was drive and keep guard while Beca and I did the fighting)-and a lot of info on mercenaries, Fixers, all his clients and Corpo Rats. 

Honestly, the problem with Faraday was that he wanted to be one of the 0.5 percent of people of this world who could control the world as they saw fit. Because in this world the rich want to be richer while the poor just keep getting poorer.

We decided to finish the last 2 runners. Which we had finally got enough Info on. After I finish all my business I would take a vacation to the Moon.

The first target I would hit was Yuki Touro the runner who does not leave his home. I managed to get a meeting scheduled with him in a secluded area of Haywood. Since he had already worked for Faraday before all I had to do was set up a meeting place in a discreet place and take him out.

 After I would sneak into his home, erase all the data he had, and then leave without alerting anyone.

The plan was simple and it went exactly as I predicted, the target was killed and the data was erased. Except that when I was driving back from my target's home after erasing the data. I saw a convoy of Arasaka agents heading to where I had just left. And had a bad feeling about it.

Third POV

As the convoy of Arasaka agents got out of their cars a big man who looked to be a full-on Cyborg stepped out and asked "Where is that runner rat"

one of the agents notices how even after ringing the doorbell multiple times there was still no answer. 

"Sir Yuki Touro might already be dead, Our team lost all contact with him approximately 3 hours ago, I don't think we will find his body, the killer's MO stated he is careful to not leave any glues for us to find"

After all of the Arasaka agents finish investigating the house, one of them gives the Cyborg a report of their findings.

The big Cyborg takes a closer look at the holo pad and scans it, After a few minutes he says "So the intel was right, someone is targeting The informants of that worm Tanaka's"

"Yes sir it appears that whatever the Ex-director of intelligence was hiding must be important since all the data he had about the spy we planted on Militech and the information on the prototype of project S1 was destroyed with his body, all we know from his second in command was that he gave specific orders to keep everything on lockdown and he was the only one who had access to the information"

"Yes but why kill the Runners? with this rat, the body count is 6 and I believe the last informant that was under Tanaka's control was that Runner. what was he called again?"

"The Devil sir"

"Ahh yes, The Devil. Gather all the information we have on him and send it to me. I will secure him and extract all the information he has. Even if I have to torture it out of him" the cyborg said with an almost Maniac laugh. 

"Yes sir, It would take us a few days to gather all the info"

"That's fine I have 2 more weeks before I go back to Japan to guard Yorinobu"

"Yes sir, we can get the info in a few days"

After that, the cyborg got back in the car and left since he knew that whoever was doing the killing had already wiped all the information so there was no point in staying.

Back to David 

As I park my motorcycle, Beca also arrives and parks her own motorcycle in the parking deck of the club.

Even though Beca also used her money for some changes she is still shorter in stature but not as short as she used to be, she used to be 4.5 now she is 5.4 after the drugs she bought from Biotechnica. Which are specifically for organically making the body grow. With soft features and stark white skin with a faint blue tint to contrast with the pink tattoos on her neck, stomach, and right thigh that reads "PK DICK". Clothing is minimal for Rebecca as her preferred dress is simply her black bra and underwear, a black, Kitsch, high collar jacket with green accents that go down below her waist, and a pair of matching sneakers. Besides the jacket and shoes, she pulls her green hair up into pigtails with a dual-clipped hair band. Her cyberware is subtle with only her pink and yellow cyberoptics standing out. and now also she has a powerful Sandevistan and a mean pair of Mantis blades. 

"Yoo Davy now that the jobs are done, when are we going to do the thing" she said with a wink.

I smiled back at her and was about to give her an answer, But I got a call from Regina "Sorry I got a call from Regina"

She pouted and went inside the club. I stayed behind and answered her call"Yoo Regina how can I help you"

"Hey David I got the info on The Devil that you wanted, But I also have bad news. Remember the list of runners I gave you"

"Yeah they had information on me that I rather stay in the dark"

"Don't worry all of those guys were scum anyway. What I wanted to tell you is that Arasaka has started an investigation on all your previous targets and since You only need The devil, it is highly likely that they also know or are looking to find The Devil too"

I had predicted that Arasaka would start looking at the deaths and have a contingency plan just in case but I rather just kill The Devil and be done with it.

"Thanks, Regina the eddies should be in your account, and as always a pleasure to do business with you," I said as we both ended the call.
