The sea air. Salty, humid. Seattle, the same old town I left a while back.
It's been almost a year. I think. I'm walking, basking in the glory of
Capitalism, seeing my face reflected in the glass-paned buildings, the
uptight crowd walking in their expensive suits, the bum getting beaten by
the LS thugs. Don't want to ruin Downtown's glitz and glamour, neh? A few
blocks down, I can see barricades, well-hidden. Here, everything's perfect,
a klick down, it's Hell. The Arcology's been taken over by something. But
see if I care.
This damn suit doesn't fit me. I feel like a fraud.
Then again, I need to be inconspicuous. A single predator. Registered. A
fake SIN. And a pain in the back of my neck that won't go away.
The skin is still soft where they cut it open. They put something next
to my mobwie. I don't know. I could look the wrong way, and my head could
blow off, I could walk off the job, and my mobwie would go crazy. Epileptic
city, presto.
Muthafuckers.
I want to know what's there. I want to know what they have in store for
me. Then I can act.
But for now, do the job, stay in line, listen to what the bitch says, go
to the Tacoma Sheraton. I know it's a government hit. I'm keeping that
little info for myself. It could be worth a bundle to the right person.
It could be worth freedom. If only I could find someone...
Argh. I can feel it, under my skin. Maybe I made a mistake.
Maybe.
