Bad Habits: Chapter 08

Fandom: Cyberpunk 2077 Pairing: Johnny Silverhand/Fem!V Read on Ao3 - Master List Previous Chapter - Next Chapter

"We gotta prepare for the worst," Johnny warned V. "Something seems off about that call." "Yeah, I know." V groaned at Johnny trying not to worry. Once V was finished getting dressed she ran out of her apartment heading right for the elevator that leads to street level. Normally the wait was short for the elevator to arrive but today felt like forever. The doors opened and V walked into it before pressing the down button repeatedly. Thankfully V was the only one waiting. "Not sure that will make it faster but I like your spirit." Johnny laughed making himself known again. "I know I know but -" "It'll be fine. Yes, we need to prepare for the worst but it'll be fine." He interrupted "- I worry, but yeah you're right..." V sighed removing her finger from the button.

Before the doors could open up all the way, V squeezed herself through the gap. She then started to run again. It would be faster to drive or take the metro but V wasn't fully thinking. In the moment all she knew was to run. V pushed herself harder and harder not wanting to take a break. Not knowing what to expect when she got to Judy's, V ran as fast as she could up the fire escape that led to the apartment. She could make out talking from the other side of the wall but was unable to understand it. With a shaky hand, V rang Judy's door before knocking a couple of times. "Hey Judy it's me!" V yelled a few seconds before the door opened. Judy seemed shaken up, her makeup had been smeared. "What's going on?" She asked walking into the apartment. "Where's Evelyn?" V added getting a sick feeling in her gut. "I think the people who Eve got work from just tried to get to her. I was able to scare them off but I don't think we're safe here..." Judy didn't answer the question before starting to explain even more. She then leads V into the kitchen to make them both some coffee hoping to calm down. "So they know she's still alive," V frowned unsure if that was even still a true statement. "Any idea who?" She asked right as the bathroom door opened. Evelyn stepped out, she was still in the sweatpants and tank top Judy let her borrow after saving her. "Yeah, I got an idea who." Evelyn stated making her way over to the two. "For a moment there I thought the doll offed herself." Johnny stated leaning out Judy's apartment window to smoke. What is wrong with you?! V snapped at Johnny, who just laughed at her reaction. "Don't worry about it." He answered before V brought her attention back to Evelyn.

Judy handed Eve a cup before handing V one as well. "It was the Voodoo boys or someone they hired," Evelyn stated after taking a drink. "I was hired by them to get the chip. I don't know why they need it but I believe they are upset about me not giving them it. I feel like they sent someone to forcefully grab it thinking I was keeping it for myself to sell, but because it's in your head we just had to fight them. I'm sorry V… I owe you for saving me and I feel like I just put a hit on your head even if they dont fully know about you." Eve looked down at her cup. "No, it's alright. I want you both safe. Maybe they know a way to get the thing out of my head." V smiled at the two hoping to help Evelyn feel better about things. "That explains the one corrupted tape I was able to fix some of." Judy said softly more like she was thinking aloud. "That was probably when I made the deal." Judy nodded at Evelyn. "Do you want me to try and put a stop to them? I could crash on the floor here if you need a bodyguard or something." V offered trying to think about how to help them. "You don't have to go out of your way for us, but I do have a favour to ask," Judy did her best to smile at V, she looked and sounded nervous. "We need help with making sure the Voodoo boys don't find us," Judy looked down at her coffee. "We're moving either to Oregon or Washington. Anyplace up North is where I've always wanted to move and I feel it will be safer for Eve." Hearing this hurt V. She wasn't fully aware why it did but it did. Judy hadn't been her friend for very long at this point but deep down V felt she knew Judy way more than she did. Maybe it was because this was due over, which was V's only explanation. "If there is anything I can do, I will do it." V told the two causing Judy to smile at her. "I do have a few things I need to clean up with the Mox before leaving. I might have to ask a favour there too once I get more figured out. I just felt like you were the only one who could help us after this. Eve just happened to agree." Judy was starting to get emotional. "That does remind me V I owe you an apology and a thank you," Evelyn smiled at V. "I don't know how or even understand how but thank you for saving me." "Just had a weird gut feeling something was wrong and went where I thought I needed to." V told her before Johnny laughed. "Gut feeling? That's what you're going to call me?" He asked reminding V he was still in the room.

The three stayed and chatted for a while. Judy explained the plans she was trying to figure out for how the Mox could take over Clouds. She also explained that most of her BD work she could do remotely and never really thought about it until lately with helping Evelyn. To V it all sounded like a great opportunity and idea, she just hated knowing her friends would be moving away. Night City was never for Judy but she stayed. V felt selfish wishing she wouldn't move away, but V also didn't want to remind herself she was dying. Judy moving away would make things easier, even if it meant losing a friend like her.

After leaving Judy's apartment V called the only fixer she knew who had contact with all of Pasifica, Mr. Hands. He was a very secretive man but, he's the best fixer who knew how to get you into contact with who you needed to, both in Pacifica and Dog Town. Rogue may have been able to help out, but the way Mr. Hands knew that V had stepped into Pacifica the very first time said a lot to her. So she contacted him and explained how she needed contact with the Voodoo boys and had something they wanted. She didn't go into too much detail with the Fixer. He told V he'd see what he could do before ending the holocall. V did her best to keep busy for the next few days while waiting for Mr.Hands to get back to her.

One of those days Takemura had gotten into contact with V again. He asked her to meet with him that night by the Japantown docks. V found herself waiting for the man and someone he contacted who still worked with Arasaka. The two men talked and V just listened. She didn't want to get into the middle of their fighting but at the same time, V found herself not caring what happened. Maybe Johnny was rubbing off on her a little too much. The man Takemura had contacted wanted nothing to do with them and left after their chat was over. "Well... can't say we didn't try." V snarked at the older man, trying her best not to laugh. "We tried yes," Takemura nodded at V. "And obtained some useful information. What Oda said. They return to Tokyo after the parade... Do you not see? The parade it is our chance perhaps. If, somehow we can get Hanako-sama. We must do a proper reconnaissance. We'll need a precise map of Japantown." "I guess we could talk to Wakako for that," V stated not putting too much thought into it. "She runs a pachinko parlour on Jig-Jig Street." "We must pay this woman a visit." Takemura stated as he stepped into his Van. V made her way into the passenger seat. The drive to Wakako wasn't very long, just like their meeting with her wasn't very long either. Wakako did have the info for a map and the parade just like V thought she would. Takemura took the date once they were done talking to the fixer. He claimed he would look into it and do more calling around before getting back into contact with V.

The next day Mr.Hands finally called V back, he had the info for V which sounded more like a gig than getting help, but V knew she needed to accept it. Mr.Hands filled in all the details to V and off to Pacifica she went. The meeting spot was an old church building. It was run down and seemed to be from before the rebuild of Night City. Inside V was supposed to meet up with the person Mr.Hands was in contact with. V opened up the doors and walked inside. The building was crowded with patrons for whatever service was going on. Pushing her way through the sea of people, V looked around doing her best not to seem out of place. But she stuck out like a sore thumb which made it easier for the contact to find V. He pulled her to the side and explained how he was just the man in the middle and that she needed to meet up with someone else named Placide, who was at the local butcher's shop by the shopping center. After being told the address and what to do V left the building. Something about all of this felt off to V but she didn't know exactly how to put it. It could just be the paranoia kicking in. Heading to the stairs next to the chapel V found herself stopping after taking 2 steps down. Her head started to hurt as an old memory hit her. Closing her eyes V started to remember having a talk with Judy about the tapes she found on Evelyn. She remembered what was on both of the ones where Evelyn was talking to Brigitte, seemed like these were the same stairs Evelyn was watching her talk on the phone. "Hey…" Johnny's voice was clear. "Yeah?" V asked opening her eyes and looking at him. "You okay? I can feel that you're nervous." "Yeah yeah just fine… I guess I remembered something about Brigitte." She sounded unsure but Johnny reassured her she wasn't wrong. Mr.Hands had mentioned a name like that to V in their talking but she didn't think it was too important. V then began to walk again making her way to the butcher shop. Johnny stayed close to V as she walked, it was clear he was worried about her but V couldn't tell if it was because of her memory moment or what was about to happen to them.

Entering the butcher shop V was told to head to the back after a quick scan was done. Placide had been expecting her while working on butchering a chicken. He wasn't hard to find. "What do you want?" The man asked, in what V assumed was Haitian Creole. "I wanna talk to Brigitte." V stated. "But dey send you to me?" He asked now speaking English while sharpening his knife. "And you'll tell me more about the job?" V asked watching Placide chop off the head of the chicken. "Yes but not here. Follow me." He sounded almost annoyed by V's presence. Placide then wrapped up the chicken before hiding it in his jacket. V followed behind him closely as the two talked more on their way to another building. He explained how Pacifica was supposed to be its own city and a closed circle. They made a spot so Placide could point out the Grand Imperial Mall or GIM for short. The GIM was overrun by the Animals Gang according to him. Placide didn't go into much more detail than that before starting to walk again. As they entered a market area Placide was greeted by almost everyone they walked by before making another stop. This time he dropped off the chicken he had butchered to a woman working one of the market stalls. The woman kept telling him she couldn't accept the food but he wasn't going to take no as an answer. She then thanked him before Placide began to walk again "Let's go not far now," He told V once again leading the way to some stairs leading to what seemed to be run-down offices. "You deal with Animals before?" Placide asked breaking the silence. "Yeah, a couple of times here and there," V told him. "You want them gone from GIM?" She asked getting no answers yet. "Kinda weird for them to be here blocked off from their main group. Hell even badges don't come here anymore… How many are we talking about?" She asked hoping to get more answers. "Bout 30 or more," Placide said as he sat down behind a computer at a desk motioning for V to sit on the other side. "We talk here." "When do I see Brigitte anyways?" V asked starting to get frustrated but did what she was told and took a seat. "You do job. Dat is first." Placide began to type on his computer before reaching over the desk and yanking V's arm that had her personal link. He then forcefully plugged her in to do a scan. "Your chrome shamen - is it Viktor?" "This relevant or are you trying to scare me?" V asked raising an eyebrow. "I need you to be able. I need know," Placide demanded before his tone changed. "Dis chip - it has no signature. What is it?" "It's nothing don't worry about it. Plus it's broken anyway." "Mh how?" He asked sounding unimpressed. "I got a bullet to the brain. Hasn't worked since," Johnny gave V a thumbs up as he watched from behind Placide. "Once inside what do I do?" V asked knowing she had to do this gig now. Placide then showed V a picture of a van pulled from some of their security feeds. He explained how it showed up when the Animals did and that they wanted to know who or what was behind it. It was clear to V the Animals were just hired muscle and not behind it. Something in her gut said this had to deal with NetWatch but V didn't tell Placide this. Once finished talking Placide then synced up V with their subnet so he could have contact with her as well as see everything. He told her to meet with some of his people to get closer to the mall before releasing V to do the gig.

V was escorted to part of the GIM that seemed to be less guarded than other parts. She was able to sneak her way past all the groups of Animals. There was a larger room in the middle of the GIM where V could see the parked van. "Okay van is in sight," V whispered to Placide. After remote deactivating the turrets from around the room V snuck her way next to the Van. "At the van and no 'runner in sight." "No chatter." Placide snapped before telling V to jack into the van. Rolling her eyes V jacked in. "While I have you here might as well fill me in." V whispered as a map popped up for her. "Dataflow map of Pacifica... Dey hunt Agwe." "Wait who's they?" "NetWatch. Dey always out to fuck us." "Okay, so what's on me to do?" V asked realizing her gut was right about NetWatch. "You must reach de agent. easy now to find him. Look at de map. He is in cinema." "Step away now this isn't your fight" A new voice entered V's head causing Placide to curse. "Uuuh... What? Placide?" V sounded panicky now. "We are cut. Pushed out. The runner know you are here. Hunt him." "Okay, what do I do?" V asked while jacking out of the van. "I will tell you. De agentman tries to cut you off. De Animals be here soon." Placide stated before explaining to V where she needed to go now. The Runner from NetWatch kept closing doors in front of V.

Before long V found herself in the cinema theatre. The projector was on and showing a Western film. Placide began to explain that they needed the data before being cut off. Seemed like NetWatch was stopping their communications. V then made her way into the projector room for the theatre. "Whoa hey, easy!" The NetWatch agent yelled unsure if V was holding any weapons but making it clear he just wanted to talk. "What did you do?" V asked unsure if she should trust him. "Well, now we can talk in private. Just severed the connection to the rest of Pacifica. Gives us a little time." "I hate to say it and I'm sure this seems out of character for me but hear the guy out..." Johnny stood next to the NetWatch agent before turning to watch the movie. "I didn't come all this way to talk." V crossed her arms over her chest before tilting her head to the side. She was going to listen to Johnny but still knew she needed to intimidate the guy some. "Had a specter on you, didn't you? Saw and heard all you did? You followed his orders?" V nodded at his question. "No idea what the Voodoo Boys are paying you but our pockets are deeper. "Are you trying to buy me out?" V laughed. "Not at all! Consider it a counteroffer," He smirked. "Don't gamble your life away on the Boys. They aren't exactly known for their professional integrity." She nodded again "Yeah you are right there, but this isn't a money job for me. I just need an in to Maman Brigitte, Voodoo chefin." The NetWatch agent then explained to V about how Brigitte and her lapdog had been frozen in the subnet for a few days now. NetWatch had shrouded their subnet with ICE and the VDB was using V to free them. He continued to explain to V why she was brought in for a job even though she had just wanted contact information. She was being used for a job that should have flatlined her. V didn't question it with how this whole gig was making her feel. "Alright, how do you help me?" V groaned after being told more information than her head could handle at the moment. "I remove the virus they planted on you and then I'll remove Brigitte and her lapdog. They'll wake up like nothing happened. All you have to do is let us walk with the data." "Fine..." V stated before taking a chip from the man. A removing malware notice popped up for V "Oh and almost forgot," The agent smiled as his eyes began to glow. "Mercenary will be leaving and she's joined our team... Please be nice," His eyes stopped glowing right as the notice stopped for V. "Good luck! I have a feeling we'll be seeing each other." The agents smiled at V before letting her leave. "Lesser of the two evil," Johnny said as V left the projector room. She looked at him raising an eyebrow. "C'mon let's head back to Batty's and get this shit settled for good. Grumpy motherfucker... I hope he likes surprises." He said walking off leaving V alone with the agent.

Once V was outside she got a holocall from Placide again. "What de fuck V? You are off net. I lose your eyes." He yelled. "Brigitte and the other guy are they back?" "Who told?" Placide paused. "Yes, Maman B is awake." "Perfect because I need to talk to her!" V did her best to sound cheery just to mess with Placide. "And what of NetWatch?" "Taken care of like you asked." "Look for my people out front." Placide told her before hanging up.

V made her way back by herself, after all that she didn't trust Placide's men. Johnny didn't say anything as V made her way back. This made her worry, with how much he loved to talk some days it felt like whenever he wouldn't comment on things something was on his mind. Johnny? No answer. V tried not to worry about Johnny as she made her way back to the Batty Hotel. Climbing up the stairs again V was greeted by a very pissed-off Placide. "What de fuck you do in de GIM? You were to hack de agent not cut deal wid him!" "How he gunna pull through?" V asked before getting lifted into the air by Placide. "Oh no foreplay?" She joked as he started to grip her neck and slammed her on the wall. "Best you worry about yourself not him!" Placide snapped "That him? That the scopsucker you sent into the mechdragon's den first?" V struggled to speak trying to get out of his grip. "Tell me what is going on or I break you open and see for myself!" "I fucking dare you." V snapped before giving the man a good punch which made him drop her. "Ase we must head under," A woman said breaking up the fight. "I do not know what NetWatch has planned but they are not done." She added before folding her arms over her chest and looking V over. "You worried about agents? Then shoot her in de head," Placide pointed to V. "I do not know what dey put in her. What corruption is in her system." "You don't know what is in there to begin with. How much it's worth." The two began to argue even more about V before Placide stormed off in a huff. "You must be Brigitte. Hard woman to find." V gave a sheepish smile at her. "You have something for me." She stated. "You know about the biochip, don't you?" V asked watching Brigitte look over the scans they had done of her earlier. "Yes, and we must check its conditions." Brigitte then walked over to a computer before talking with V more. She didn't give much details other than she worried about if it was truly broken. V explained that the chip was already broken before going to the GIM, trying not to laugh when Brigitte asked if it was for sale. She then explains how it wasn't for sale and no ripper could remove it without killing V.

After asking if they could help, Brigitte told V to follow her as she explained to V had to give them the data they wanted and then they could help her. To V this sounded too good to be true but she needed the help. Brigitte continued to explain where they were headed, and what it was for as they made their way to the Crypt. The Crypt was located in the basement of the church V originally had been told to meet at. There was an abandoned maglev system they had turned into their subnet. The maglev system crashed back when the net crashed after the war according to Brigitte. One of the many netrunners greeted Brigitte before informing her they were ready. "We take you into de cyberspace. No better place for you to interact with de construct." Brigitte told V as she began to work on one of the many computers around them. "Okay hang on... I want to know what you need Silverhand for first." V sounded unsure about asking for help now. "We wish to contact Alt Cunningham. We know she and Silverhand were close." "Alt?" Johnny sounded confused now making his presence known. Oh now you show up? V asked glaring right at him. Why do you sound surprised anyways? Johnny didn't answer her question. "The Relic which Arasaka held close. It is our only lead." Brigitte added. "Alt Cunningham yeah I've heard of her. V watched Johnny to see if he reacted more to this. "Oh? Where? From who?" Brigitte sounded surprised by V's statement, she turned around to look at her. "From Johnny?" V sounded confused by what she was saying, almost like she was doubting herself. "Really?" Brigitte lifted an eyebrow. "Alright V better tell her." Johnny sighed. About what? Us? She asked, Johnny nodded before lighting up. It was clear he was nervous. "Construct is active. It lets me and Johnny shoot the shit here and there," V folded her hands over her chest. "Why contact Alt anyways?" "We try to cut out a unique piece of Silverhand's engram from de biochip. Alt will know it. If something of de human is left after years beyond de blackwall, she will answer." Brigitte led V over to an ice bath used for netrunning. "Wait what you said nothing about breaking through the Blackwall." V followed her closely. "Well now you know," She stated matter-of-factly. "Here." Brigitte motioned for V to get in the tub. Johnny sat down on the side of it as V got in. Anything I should know first? V asked Johnny hoping his talking would distract her enough from the ice-cold water as she stepped in. "You've already heard part of what they will use to get Alt to come out. I won't lie and say I'm the hero. We need to find Alt and chat with her. I know you can do that," Johnny then placed a hand on top of V's. "I'll see you soon." Johnny's tone had softened, just above a whisper as she was plugged in and the world around her became code.

Everything turned to red and blue. V looked around trying to figure out where she was, the world around her was now made up of blue flickering pixels. There was no one else around except one red figure standing in the middle, Maman Brigitte. "Where are we?" V asked walking over to the woman. "This is our BBS, Data fortress," She held her arms insisting V look around. "Bridge to de deep Net." "It's so alive... so real. " V started to look around, taking it all in. "Cyberspace moves, breathes at all times. De interface will adjust ebb and flow of data to de capabilities of your brain. But you," Bridge paused. "You are an exceptional case." "So what now?" V asked trying to move things along "We can begin! All is ready. We enhanced your link to Silverhand's neural network for a short time. To grab de fragment. We must find the data on Alt. Alt alone. Dis should only take... "Brigitte?" V asked as the world around them started to go dark.

Time began to rewind. V knew she was watching Johnny's memories this time. She could make out bits and pieces of his past that had already shown up when V was rebooted. The talk before his death, Rogue dropping Johnny when losing her grip on him, Fighting Adam Smasher, Johnny's goodbye to Kerry. Then new to V memories began to play, The riots of 2013, Johnny being stabbed by what seemed to be Mantis blade, Johnny with a blonde woman who V assumed was a groupie, and Johnny waving his gun on stage at a concert. V's vision went back to cyberspace but Brigitte was still missing. There was a stage now in front of V that she slowly walked over to before standing behind the make. Something inside her told her to touch it. Her vision changed to being normal. V could see the blonde woman standing in the crowd as Johnny's memories of the concert began to play for her. She could tell he was surprised to see this woman but excited at the same time, the woman didn't seem to be enjoying her time there with her arms held over her chest. Parts of the memory seemed to fast forward, once it began to play again Johnny was waving his gun around yelling about how they would never fade away before turning to black as the gun fired. The memory then fast-worded again to how the show had ended, Kerry and Johnny were arguing again to no one's surprise. Kerry was angry about what Johnny had done on stage, He had every right to be upset with Johnny. But V could tell Johnny wasn't sorry about what he had done. Before the argument was finished Johnny pushed Kerry out of his way storming off into the dressing room. " - Go fuck yourself!" Johnny yelled before slamming the door. He turned around to find the Blonde woman from earlier sitting down. The Rockerboy seemed surprised to find her here, but this didn't stop him from turning to the counter next to him and looking at every pill bottle lying around. He needed something to make him feel good, some kind of high as his high from the concert began to leave. "Fuck..." Johnny sighed after downing some of the pills he found. "Is it the concert or Kerry?" The woman asked now standing next to him. "Said you weren't coming tonight. Not if I can help it." "Changed my mind lover," She smiled at him before removing his glasses. "Look at you... all hot and bothered." V knew this voice but couldn't think of why other than when she overheard Johnny's one memory that had her voice. This had to be Alt V thought to herself realizing what she was about to be forced to watch, unable to skip over it. Johnny moved to pin Alt down on the counter. The two began to dry hump each other on the counter so Johnny could look at himself. Alt grabbed onto Johnny's face forcing him to look at her before smiling as she pushed him off of her with her foot. V tried her hardest not to pay attention to what came next, she worried that somehow seeing Johnny like this could get her worked up. It didn't help that V was slowly beginning to question her feelings for the man and knew this would boost his ego. After what felt like hours of passion, both love and hate, the two finally finished. V was relieved by this even if it did leave her with a bit of a problem she'd have to figure out later how to take care of without Johnny knowing. She watched as the two held hands before starting to argue. Alt stood up as she went to gather her clothes and Johnny let his ego get the better of him.

Johnny made his way over to the counter to look for pills again. He found an empty bottle and threw it. "See, I thought..." Alt said before joining him again now fully clothed. "That this meant something? That we're close? So close you can give me shit about everything I do?" Johnny asked her grabbing onto her head so they could look each other in the eyes. Alt didn't struggle before removing Johnny's hand and pushing him away. "Got quite the imagination, then" He snapped before she left the room. V watched as Johnny followed after her, he had given her enough space that Alt had a good head start. Alt seemed to be waiting behind the building in a back ally for someone when Silverhand caught up to her. "Where are you going?" He asked grabbing her arm and turning Alt around. Johnny sounded worried about her. "Got somewhere to be" Alt snapped at him before some drunk fans started to hassle the two. Playing it cool Johnny tried to invite her to Samuri's next show hoping their anger had blown over enough. "Let's get out of here." Alt whispered to him as the thugs came a little too close to them for comfort. Johnny pushed her behind himself trying to fill the gap between the group and Alt. "Fuck off!" He snapped at the group of drunks before pulling out his gun. Silverhand began firing before he could hear Alt screaming, one of them had gotten a hold of her and taken her into a van. Before Johnny knew it two mantis blades had stabbed into him from behind, and the group left him for dead. He could hear Alt screaming for him as the van left without a trace. The world turned black for a second before Johnny opened his eyes again to see a hairless cat next to him. The amount of blood made him pass out.

"Look," Johnny sounded like he was talking to someone else when V began to wake up. "All I want is your approval of this," V started to look around, her vision was still blurry. "Alt if I have to apologize I will." "The Alt you knew is gone, do I have to keep reminding you of this? They were not welcome here and I speed things up on V's end." The woman who was talking sounded confused by his questions. "What all did she see then?" Johnny then looked at V realizing she was awake. He then walked over to her to help her up off the ground, she let him. "She saw some of what needed to be seen and that triggered memories of the first time she met me," Alt announced as she watched the two closely. "V now understands why you know what you do." She added. "Where is every -" "They are dead." Alt interrupted not wanting to explain more about the Voodoo boys. "How did we even get this due over?" V asked looking at Alt hoping for an answer. "I found another option for you. Are you not happy?" She raised a digital eyebrow at them. "I made a dissection for us if you want to blame anyone it's me." Johnny told V. She turned to look at him unsure exactly how to react to this. Part of her said to be pissed off at him but another part of her said to hear him out maybe he was doing this out of a place of love not selfishness. But after all, V has seen she questioned if Johnny Silverhand even truly knew was love was. He clearly knew lust which can be mixed up with the feeling. Closing her eyes V tried to clear her mind, everything was starting to feel like it was moving too fast for her and no answers were truly given. "I will send V back so we can talk in private." Alt told Johnny. "No wait!" V yelled opening her eyes, but it was too late suddenly the world around her turned dark and all V could see was something red pushing her deeper into darkness.

Waking up in the ice bath V could tell something was very wrong. All the Netrunners had been fried except the port she had been plugged into. Johnny? V called out in her head but no answer. I guess he really is still with Alt somehow. She thought to herself slowly trying to sneak her way out of the Crypt. Most of the Voodoo boys knew something had happened by the amount of waiting for V. She could feel a relic malfunction was due any minute now, V didn't have much choice but to fight her way out. At the top of the stairs leading back into the church waited Placide. He was even more pissed off than before but his rage blinded him, the longer things took the worst V felt. The fight ended in V winning but she wasn't feeling like much of a winner as she stumbled out the front doors of the church. Instantly her holo began to ring, and with her vision blurring V wasn't able to read who it was. Right as she answered V couldn't hear who was on the other end, everything was being drowned out by the ringing in her ears. As the relic malfunctioned things turned dark again for V and she fell to the ground.
