章 49: Shibuya-ing Night City
Corpo Plaza. It looked different than it had in Cyberpunk 2077. More alive. It was also very loud, due to the excessive gunfire going off between the NCPD and four armed people.
"Look alive, Shia. Goal's to rescue that little shortstack over there, plus the mechsuit guy, hot white haired girl and mister moustache." Yin stated, moving toward the encirclement quickly.
"Right! Is there anyone tough we should look out for? I thought this place blew up.." The bunny girl asked in confusion.
"I doubt- Wait.." Yin paused, seeing Rebecca start firing her shotgun up.
Right at a descending Adam Smasher. It was a scene anyone who watched Edgerunners was intimately familiar with. Rebecca was 'best girl' after all. Tied with Lucy. So upon realizing what was about to happen, Yin made a reasonable move.
"We're having a moment here!! FUCK-" Before the little blonde was crushed by the falling cyborg, a black blur blew through the NCPD perimeter and hit Smasher like a torpedo.
*CRUNCH!*
The borg was sent flying into the Arasaka building he fell down from. His metal body pulverizing the lobby, as if a missle had been shot into it.
"That was fast!" Shia cried out as she leapt over beside Rebecca.
"Wh-What the fuck..?" Rebecca studdered, looking at the gaping hole the legendary Borg was kicked into, before looking at the one responsible.
"Hm.. yeah, probably ruptured a few organs and crushed a few ribs there. I'll leave him to you, Shia. Get in the truck-" Yin looked down at Rebecca, cutting herself off as she used her wing to block a particularly powerful shot that almost took Rebecca's head off.
"I actually felt that a little.. Tech weapons huh.." Yin smirked, looking at the Arasaka sniper with the Nekomata rifle in his hands, looking as if he were about to shit his pants.
Even more so when more of Yin's draconic features emerged. Thankfully, Rebecca got the message and jumped in the back of the truck. Though she stared at Yin in shock still.
"You.. You're that chick who fucked up Smasher before the nuke!" She pointed out, getting the attention of Falco, Lucy and David.
"Yup. Strange he lived through that.. But that'll be fixed soon." Yin replied, seeing Shia approach Arasaka tower.
Though the gunfire quickly became annoying, so Yin aimed her hand and snapped her fingers, obliterating six NCPD officers with an explosion of blue flames. This got the rest to wisen up and quickly evacuate, seeing as how their guns did nothing but annoy her.
"YOU!!" A roar of fury echoed from within Arasaka tower's lobby.
Adam Smasher ran out, enhanced by his advanced Sandevistan. Trying to reach out and kill the woman who killed him, only to get a bunny girl's roundhouse kick to the face, smashing him through a few blocks of concrete.
"Alright, get somewhere safe. Can't guarantee your safety here while my friend stomps his head in. Go to.. Megabuilding H-10 in Watson. Just wait at the lobby." Yin waved them off before shutting the back of the truck.
"I.. Thank you..." David sincerely said, though she could see he was on the verge of losing his sanity.
"Go." Yin replied, ignoring the sounds of metal being heavily smashed behind her.
Shia seemed eager to prove her strength, and her hits to Smasher's reinforced metal body were no joke. Already, it seemed like Adam Smasher was on his last leg.
"You... fucking MEAT! How did you survive!?" Adam furiously roared, all his wrath directed at Yin.
"I should be asking that. Didn't I pop your head like a fucking zit? Oh, look.. the media's here." Yin replied, glancing off to the side as journalists and news reporters rushed onto the scene, though still behind the NCPD perimeter.
"Guess the whole world gets to watch you bite it again." Yin mocked with a hint of amusement in her voice.
<Smasher. You must get a sample of her. I am authorizing the deployment of every unit in Night City. Take her, at all costs>
A distinct, aged Japanese man's orders were received by Adam Smasher. He clenched his fingers and punched the concrete ground.
*CRACK!*
"Fine... Everything.." Smasher replied lowly, before his head was once more smashed into the ground by Shia, pulverizing it completely.
"And that's settled. Alright, time to clean up Arasaka's fodder and.. Hm?" Yin turned to the armed Arasaka elite security before stopping.
High above, within Arasaka tower, many openings appeared.
"Wow! That really WAS easy.." Shia muttered, not noticing the commotion.
Thirty hulking figures leapt out of Arasaka tower, decimating the ground as they landed.
*BOOOM!*
All having surrounded both Yin and Shia, collective gasps of terror could be heard from beyond the perimeter line. All of them, each and every one..
Was Adam Smasher.
If that wasn't enough, Arasaka aerial assault vehicles swarmed them both. A voice spoke out from the largest assault vehicle. One many instantly recignized as Saburo Arasaka.
"I advise you, to surrender. It is not in your best interest to.." Yin ignored the withering old man speaking and looked at all the Adam Smashers surrounding them with a malicious, face splitting grin.
"Shia.. I changed my mind. You can have the vehicles, drones and even the soldiers. I want the Smashers." Yin stated, oddly calm.
"Eeeh...? Well as long as I get the XP!" Shia replied cheerfully.
Yin walked forward and held up her hand.
"Shut up, old man. Adams, it's time for your jumping. You're all about to get jumped by me, and me alone." And before they could utter a reply, the pavement exploded and the nearest Adam Smasher had been sent rocketing through the air by the hardest punch he had ever received.
*BOOOM!*
This time, it was another building that suffered from the borg body crashing into it like a ballistic missile.
All hell then broke loose. Copious amounts of gunfire was shot at Yin and Shia, who engaged their set targets. Corpo Plaza was quickly becoming a warzone, where evacuation signals were being sent out to minimize the loss of life.
*CRA-CRA-CRACK-BOOOM!!*
Fifteen Adam Smashers were engaging Yin in close combat, chasing her up the Militech building. Yin was backflipping away from the giant Borg's fists and laughing.
"Come on! You can do better, right!?" Yin shouted, leaping forward as several rockets shot into the building from the Smashers below.
One Smasher lunged at her from the Militech building, only to his face sliced in half by Murasama, then crescent kicked through an office window, before said window, and office, was blown to smithereens by a giant ball if blue flames.
*BOOOM!*
The other Smashers chasing after her were blasted out of the air by the force of the explosion. Yin spun in the air, using 'Mana Hike' to ascend further, assisted by the flapping of her wings to dodge and weave between large caliber bullets and rockets while the cyborgs smashed into the ground. When she got above the Militech tower, Yin put her hands together and summoned all of her flames to her hands. Blue light briefly bathed the entirety of Corpo Plaza before the flames grew larger.
While she added more mana to her flames, she added gravity magic to the center, creating a large, black core that began to draw things toward it.
"I'll have to thank Hajime later for showing me how busted Gravity spells are.."
*BOOM!* *BOOOOM!*
While Yin was having fun, Shia was dealing with a bullet hell. The drones and aerial combat vehicles were tough for her to hit. So she used the bodies of Arasaka soldiers to take the bullets instead of her aura. After the ninth bullet sponge, she had an idea.
"HUP!" Using her powerful legs and her tribe's natural hopping talent, Shia kicked off the ground and smashed a drone to pieces with her Greathammer.
"Yes! Ah.. I have to learn Mana Hike.. I didn't realize my speed was lacking until now.." Shia complained, much to the shock and disbelief of the soon-to-be dead Arasaka soldiers near her.
She was already keeping up with them when they were using a Sandevistan..
*CRUNCH!*
Shia leapt up from the falling drone and curb stomped the incoming aerial assault vehicle's engine, watching the terrified pilot try to dive out before once more leaping. She then felt a large gathering of mana and decided to abandon her next attacks and move away from the plaza.
It was a good decision, as a fifteen meter ball of extremely hot flames smashed through the nearby Militech tower, both burning and drawing air, people and debris into it.
"RUN!!" A terrified Arasaka agent cried out, using his Sandevistan to help him flee faster.
But not everyone was as fast as him. A few Adam Smashers, soldiers, vehicles, pieces of nearby buildings and other miscellaneous items were drawn into the expanding ball of hot death. Yin cackled as she held her hand out and swept it to the side, treating the pseudo-star she had created like a wrecking ball before holding up her hand.
*SNAP*
The ball of death was then ejected, crashing through the center of the plaza and bowling through the Arasaka tower, reaching a diameter of fourty meters before exploding in a massive shockwave of fire and gravity.
*CREAAAAAK!*
Arasaka tower, having over half of it melted and suffering the explosion, began to topple. Right onto the Militech tower, which began to do the same, due to all the damage done to it.
"A good start.. Buuuuut....." Yin smirked as she felt four Adam Smashers fly at her, riding atop an aerial combat vehicle each.
"That power... That kind of power.. in MEAT!?" One Adam roared indignantly before all of them activated their Sandevistans and simultaneously punched Yin straight into another tower.
"What's wrong? Figuring out you tossed away your dick and balls for an inferior strength? Here, let me cheer you up.." Yin drew in a deep breath of mana that began to get darker as it reached her mouth.
▂▂▃▃▄▄▄▄▅▅▅▅
A blast of darkness escaped her mouth, instantly catching two Adam Smashers and creating a perfect ten meter hole through the tower, continuing to blast a hole through several other buildings. The dark mana eroding everything in direct contact with it.
The two remaining Smashers looked at Yin with a gradually increasing wariness.
"Tell your brothers to rush me. I'm starting to get bored. You're boring me.." The Smashers angrily retreated out of the building, realizing the merit in her mocking words.
They'd win if they swarmed her, right?
-Meanwhile, Afterlife bar-
*BEEP* *BEEP* *BEE- CLICK*
"Ugh.. what is it, Rogue? I'm kinda in the middle of something here." A smarmy, confident voice picked up the call.
"I believe you.." Rogue, the Merc Queen of the Afterlife replied.
"...Huh? Mind explaining?"
"I'm saying I finally believe you, Johnny. About that otherworldly shit you were telling me. Ciril-something or whatever.. I believe you." Rogue stated dryly.
"Well shit.. What changed your mind? I fuckin' told you I wasn't cheating-" Johnny started to complain, but Rogue interrupted.
"Look at the fucking news in Night City.." Rogue said, waiting a few seconds before Johnny went completely silent.
"This.. isn't a movie, is it?" He asked.
"No.. Who the fuck is she? She looks like she hasn't aged a damn day and.. What the fuck.." Rogue muttered as she watched two massive hands made of blue flame form above Corpo Plaza, both of them grabbing onto two massive skyscrapers.
All while ten Adam Smashers swarmed the girl. Arasaka soldiers, Militech soldiers, Trauma Team.. There were a significant amount of dangerous people there. But there she stood, lording over them while closing her hands slowly, drowning the plaza in flames and explosions.
"...Fuck.."
-Menagerie, Kuo Kuana-
Night was quickly setting in. And unknown to anyone, a special team had made their way into the town. Their sights set on the young Blake Belladonna and one who wasn't currently there.
