Why is this important to me? I would have been out of a job. Government contractors would rather cut you and rehire you for less pay or benefits. Also, if I miss 1 or 2 paychecks I will be homeless.

Life Is Strange Scream au

So I've been thinking of doing an au where Scream happens in Arcadia Bay. LIS has a great cast of characters that could fit Scream so much!

Max has no powers. Warren is the Randy of this au. Victoria is a Gale like figure. David is the anti-Dewey. No one is safe.

"Opening kill". Rachel Amber. Rachel is waiting for Chloe. She gets a phone call and it's someone who is enamored by her. Rachel is the most popular girl in school and everyone in Arcadia Bay loves her. He calls her about her favorite scary movie. Rachel has good taste and says Twin Peaks or The Shining. This caller just wants to see what her insides are like.

The creepy stalker breaks into the Amber house and seemingly stabs her.

There is blood everywhere and when James and Rose Amber returns they are horrified. But the person who broke into their home and hurt their daughter sneaks behind them and kills them.

It's reported that Rachel Amber and her parents were butchered. But there is no trace of Rachel.

Max is horrified about the news about Rachel. Chloe doesn't believe she died and convinces Max to help her find Rachel.

Max is attacked in her dorm and is saved by Warren and Brooke.

In light of the news of Rachel's disappearance and Max's attack, the Vortex Club only gets meaner. Nathan threatens Max and her friends and then Chloe gets up and kicks Nathan in the balls.

Viral vid still happens and Max is unable to save Kate.

David treats everyone like a suspect. From the Vortex Club, to the teachers, to Max, to any student and to his own step-daughter.

Max, Chloe and Warren altogether investigate the killings.

They find Rachel's phone and find threatening and obsessive messages from Frank Bowers. Treating her like an object, demanding sex and one message from a private number threatening to kill her and her family if she doesn't reply.

The Vortex Club hosts a party. And it turns into a fucking bloodbath. The killers kill Hayden, Zach, Logan, Courtney, Taylor, and Courtney. and Stella, Dana, Juliet, Daniel, Luke, Justin and Trevor severely injured.

The last thing Max and Chloe can see before the cops get here is Nathan running away with blood all over his hands.

Max calls out Victoria for Kate's suicide. Victoria is defensive but remorseful. She didn't mean for Kate to die or any of her friends to die. Victoria decides to join Max to bring justice for everyone who died.

Joyce is working the graveyard shift and the Price household is empty. Chloe uses this opportunity to get Max, Warren, Victoria and Brooke to investigate and come up with a probable conclusion on who the killers are. Warren pulls a Randy and uses horror movie logic to help with the investigation.

All signs point to Nathan Prescott and Frank Bowers.

David is called away. Principal Wells discovers that Mark Jefferson is missing.

Max and Chloe confronts Frank. It does not go well. Frank shoots Chloe in the leg, but Chloe shoots him in the dick and lets him bleed out.

Brooke is attacked and Chloe goes to get help.

Max is attacked and chased by Ghostface.

Warren helps her and they barricade inside Chloe's house. In the heat of the moment, Max kisses Warren.

Chloe is begging for Max to let her in and Max does. and then Nathan forces himself in too.

Nathan insists he is not the killer. He ran because his friends were dead and had his blood on their hands but he did not kill them. No one believes him. "GODDAMN IT CAULFIELD, I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE!"

Chloe takes out her gun. "I know" and shoots Nathan.

"Welcome to the final act."

And then someone in a Ghostface costume comes down the stairs. They take the mask off. It's Rachel Amber. She shoots Warren(knocking him out, not killing him)

Chloe smirks as she kisses Rachel. "Surprised, Max?"

"Chloe...why"

"Because this town destroyed my life. My father died and YOU. LEFT. ME! Then my mom hops onto Step-Fucker, lets him abuse me and covers it up. Five years to the date where everything went wrong"

Rachel's turn.

"My father lied to me my entire life. Turns out my mother wasn't my real mother and he had my birth mother killed before I could even meet her. Oh and if that's not enough EVERYONE used me. The Vortex Club. Frank. Nathan and Jefferson. Speaking of"

Rachel brings out Jefferson and Frank and shoots them both.

"See Mark here raped me. He raped Kate and was gonna do the same to you. The perfect scapegoat, right Chloe?"

"That's right babe. Jefferson and Frank are predators and Nathan was found redhanded at the crime scene. They have me and you at their mercy and then Rachel heroically returns and stops the killers."

"We could've just killed David, Frank, Mark and Nathan, but we both decided. Why not make a movie out of this?"

"What's going to happen to me?"

"That all depends on you Max. Admit it. You wanted the Vortex Club dead. LOOK WHAT THEY DID TO KATE! I don't want to kill you Max, you and Warren can make it out as the sole survivors for all we care. All we're asking is look the other way and let us get away with it."

Ending 1. Max, Warren and David stops Chloe and Rachel.

Max starts by calling them out. They didn't just hurt their abusers and the Vortex Club, they hurt innocents. People not involved with their abuse or Kate's death and that she'd rather die than stop them. Victoria and David rushes in and Chloe has Max held hostage. David subdues Rachel and before Chloe can kill Max, Warren stops her and David subdues Chloe. It's all over.

Final scene is a callback to the cutscene from the Scream script. Randy asked Sidney out and Sidney says "Obly if it's a nice Meg Ryan film" in this au Warren asks Max out and Max says "Only of it's a nice cheesey sci-fi movie" "Let's Go Ape" "Let's go ape!"

Ending 2. Max plays along.

Max agrees, she doesn't want Chloe to get away with it, but she can't let her or Rachel die. They were justified in why they did it. Max also has one condition. Let her kill Victoria. It was her viral vid that got Kate killed. Victoria and David arrive, but they find Max and Warren knocked out while Rachel gives her and Chloe's stories. David seemingly believes it but is skeptical and when Victoria checks on Max, Max slits her throat. "that was for Kate." Before David can get his gun out. Chloe stabs him in the throat and repeatedly. Rachel cheers her on and after Chloe's finished, they embrace and kiss passionately.

The police arrive. Max tells them all that Mark Jefferson, Frank Bowers and Nathan Prescott are the killers. Their last victims were Victoria Chase and David Madsen and she and Warren would've died if it weren't for herself, Chloe and Rachel.

They got away with it.

Warren has trouble remembering what happened. Max tells him the story. That Nathan shot him, Jefferson was going to kill her and Chloe and then Rachel came to the rescue. Warren believes it and glad they are okay.

Max, Chloe, Rachel and Warren leave Arcadia Bay together with Rachel holding onto Chloe as they drive away and Max holding Warren's hand

Peter Tork at various celebrity charity softball games, circa 1975, 1976, and 1977.

Photo 2 courtesy of David Jolliffe/davidjolliffe dot com; Jolliffe captioned the photo with: “Norm Jacobovitz, David Jolliffe, Jerry Hauser, David Cassidy, Randy Foote, Bill Mumy, (Bottom left) Toni Tennile, Peter Tork, Kay Lenz, Mark Hudson“

Photo 3 was published in Spec, February 1975 (via Pinterest), and shows (per the magazine’s caption) Lamont (Fifth Dimension), David Jolliffe, Keith Allison, Mark Volman, Alice Cooper, Albert Books, Neko and John Cholis, Bob Brown, Peter, Bruce Kirby, Jr.

Continued on from yesterday's post...

The following news blurb seems to refer to the top photo’s event:

“Disc jockey Charlie Tuna will lead the radio station team in a softball game against the celebrity team. Each side will be composed of personalities from radio, television, music and motion picture industries. Three of the celebrities will be Kay Lenz, star of an upcoming movie, ‘Cat House Thursday,’ Judy Norton, actress from ‘The Waltons,’ and Peter Tork, formerly of the Monkees.” - News-Pilot, September 16, 1976

“It turned into an informal softball league that raised a little money. We got good press and everybody loved it. We had a great Hollywood Vampires softball shirt and cap with a big V on it…It was Alice and myself with Peter Tork as our pitcher. He was very good.” - Micky Dolenz, Goldmine, 2020

“[We would go to] schools and camps for underprivileged kids and we’d play softball. That’s how it started. And Alice [Cooper] came up with the name [Hollywood Vampires], of course.’ They even had their own team jerseys with big red V’s. ‘Alice tended to be the pitcher,’ [Micky] Dolenz says. ‘Peter Tork, who was probably the best baseball player on the team, he would play left field. I was not that great. I would play first base, usually.’” - Arizona Republic, September 26, 2021

Another throwback to the ‘60s: “Out in the parking lot [at RCA during a Jefferson Airplane session] Peter Tork was playing baseball with the sound technicians.” - Chris Franz (class of ‘69), Wellesley News, November 9, 1967

The Randy Moss moss, Justin Jefferson parallels are something that is so special to me

[faerie-hideaway]

U.S. users email your representatives this, and make sure to include your zip code:

I am your constituent. I am strongly in favor of defunding Israel. I want my opinion logged on every single one of these pieces of legislation. It is an atrocity that the USA is sending our taxpayer dollars, weaponry, and other support to Israel in order to aid in the genocide of the Palestinian people. It does not reflect the will of your constituents, and I demand that you correct this by voting for/against the following bills, resolutions, and legislation.

To be frank, I will be basing my vote for you in upcoming elections on this issue. I will be watching closely to see how you vote on issues regarding funding to Israel. I will not vote for you in the next election if you vote to send any money, support, or weaponry to Israel. I will be voting for you if you vote to block money, support, and weaponry to Israel.

This is the current legislation I am for, and the current legislation I am against. I would like your office to record my opinion for each bill, and I would like you to take this into consideration when you vote.

I am FOR the following, and expect you to vote for this and co-sponsor, either now or when matching legislation reaches your office.

H.Res. 786: by Rep. Cori Bush

H.Res. 388 by Rep. Rashida Tlaib

H.R. 3103 by Rep. Betty McCollum

I am against Joe Biden’s proposal to spend billions of dollars on Israel via a package for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan, and the US border. Biden is asking for $100 BILLION for this package and it is only 1 YEAR'S worth of funding. This is ABSOLUTELY unacceptable, and I am against you voting for ANY bill that spends even $1 on Israel. I do not care what else is in the bill. If it gives money to Israel, I am against it.

I am AGAINST the following, and expect you to vote against this and not co-sponsor, either now or when matching legislation reaches your office.

I am against any legislation that allows troops to deploy to the Middle East in support roles for Israel, as proposed by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

I am against Netanyahu’s ground invasion of Gaza, which will inevitably lead to mass killings of Palestinian civilians and escalate violence. If there are any future bills supporting this, you need to vote against them and not co-sponsor.

The U.S. Constitution and the War Powers Act stipulate that only Congress can authorize the president to use military force in a foreign war, except in cases of self-defense. Previous administrations from both parties have ignored this, with unauthorized strikes in places like Syria and Libya. I want you to stand against ANY use of military force that supports Israel or hurts Palestine.

And of course, I am against the usual funding of $3.8 billion PER YEAR to Israel. This 10-year agreement began in 2016. I do not want a renewal in 2026, and in the next election, I will vote for representatives who WILL NOT VOTE TO FUND ISRAEL. I will be keeping track of how you vote now, and I will not vote for you if you decide to fund Israel in any way.

I am a single-issue voter for this. I want you to defund Israel. I do not want a single dollar spent on supporting Israel. I will be paying attention to how you vote in the upcoming weeks and months, and if you vote to fund or provide weapons, troops, or intelligence to Israel, I will NOT vote for you in the next election.

We are paying attention to the budget. We know when you're giving aid to a country committing genocide instead of helping your constituents in the USA. Both myself and tens of thousands of other constituents have spent years saying that we don’t want our hard-earned taxpayer dollars going to Israel. The lack of willingness to fund anything for American citizens, but the quickness with which you take action for Israel is telling. It is unacceptable.

As an elected official, you have the opportunity to listen to the public and stand against genocide. Israel is currently committing war crimes against Palestine. You can stop this by defunding Israel. THOUSANDS of Palestinian people have been killed, 1/3 of them children, in just a couple of days. One child every 15 minutes is being killed. YOU can prevent this by refusing to send additional weapons and funding to Israel.

We are currently spending BILLIONS of dollars EVERY YEAR on Israel. I do not want my money going towards the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians. Not a dollar more.

Bad Habits: Chapter 06

Fandom: Cyberpunk 2077 Pairing: Johnny Silverhand/Fem!V Read on Ao3 - Master List Previous Chapter - Next Chapter Warning: A small heads up I will be covering River's quests in this chapter! I will not be going into much detail on the Randy stuff. But figured give the warning just in case. So no need to skip over things

Time felt faster than it should have, V hadn't expected one thing after the next to happen all in the same day even if this was her new normal. To V, it all felt like a week had passed not just 36 hours. She had her first meeting with Elizabeth and Jefferson Peralez, followed by meeting River Ward. Johnny seemed to be more vocal while River was around, as they worked on the case of whether the Mayor passed away at home or was set up. Thankfully, V got all the answers that the Peralez needed to help out their investigation without telling them anything. Johnny had warned her not to do so because everything was messy. Part of her said to not listen to him and he was over-worrying, but the other part of V was saying to listen to Johnny. In some strange way, he did know more than she did when it came to palliations. Sometimes being a merc for hire did mean not having fully happy customers even if you give them what they need rather than what they want. The downside to learning all this was, that River now was forced into a very odd situation with his work.

After River confronted his coworker, he made his way over to the guardrail above the waterfront next to the chubby Buffalo parking lot. V followed him closely then hopped up to sit on the ledge. "So what now? You have a case and all the proof you need." V asked looking at River who was lost in thought. "I guess all I can do is turn him in and hope for the best. Something feels off about doing that," V nodded in agreement to his statement. "Thanks, V. I'm going to stay here and think things over for a while. Maybe I'll be able to find a better solution. But thank you for your help. " "Well, call if you need anything, alright?" She gave River a kind smile while hoping down. V then patted him on the shoulder before leaving him alone. He seemed like a nice guy who just wanted the best or what was right for everyone, but at the same time, V got an odd feeling that he wasn't sharing everything he needed to with her.

V had just about exited the parking lot before Johnny made himself known. He let out a loud sigh sounding discussed before speaking. "Goddammit... Wait a minute," She stopped to look at him. "Go back to him and ask for a fucking ride. I'll give you the address just somehow make him delta..." Is this another case of you remembering something that will happen like with Evelyn?" V asked raising an eyebrow. "Yes, now delta the fuck out." He sounded as if he couldn't believe what he was telling her. To V it almost felt out of character for Johnny but deep down, she was starting to get the feeling that he really did want what was best for everyone even if what he was right about was starting to make her feel ill. "Hey, River...," V gave a nervous laugh going back to where she had left him. She paused trying to think of how to word this best without seeming as if cyberpsychosis was beginning to take over her. "I hate to bug you right now, but it's clear you got a lot on your plate, the major, possible loss of job-" "If he doesn't agree tell him it's about his Nephew." Johnny added. "-But mind driving me someplace? I just got some gonk premonition or like insight that I feel will help another case you're working on." She smiled doing her best to not sound like she lost her marbles. V held her breath waiting for Ward's response to this, praying she didn't have to say the Nephew part that Johnny felt was best to add in now. "Get in the truck." River's voice sounded like he didn't believe V but was going to humour her. He didn't question her either.

Once they entered back into River's truck Johnny told V the address, who then gave it to River. The drive was a bit of a long one just out of town but, it made sense to River once he was told it. Once they arrived it was pretty clear something evil was going on at this farm. V did her best to disarm everything so River could follow her closely. The whole place seemed to be lined with more traps than anyone needed just to make sure no uninvited guests showed up, or to keep to local kids out. Making her way to the farmhouse V started to feel more and more sick. She did her best to push through what she was feeling not fully aware of what they would find. Once in the house, the two of them found more info on what was going on, followed by a way to safely get into the barn on the other side of the property. Heading back outside it didn't take very long for the two of them to break in and find who River was looking for. It turns out that the night before River had found out his nephew was missing and his disappearance lined up with some other cases of other missing teens. The man who was doing all of this had already been caught but the case had fallen to a dead end. Seems like V's tapeworm just saved a couple of kids before it was too late. River had no idea how she knew what she did but he wasn't going to question it. He had no idea how to thank V even if all she did was tell him where to go.

Once everything seemed to be over River offered to give V a ride home, she must have been looking pretty green in the face. V gladly accepted it not wanting to figure out how to get herself home, now that she was very aware of the sickness she had been pushing down. The two sat and talked before leaving, it was just to make sure V wouldn't get sick on the way to her apartment. But, for once small talk didn't feel like the worst thing in the world. To V it felt almost like they had known each other for years even if it was just a couple of hours now. "You sure that you don't have to go to the hospital right away for Randy?" V asked realizing she was making River wait. "You've probably wasted more time than you had planned making sure I wasn't going to be sick." He shook his head "It's not time wasted. Plus He's probably just asleep now and won't know I'm not there or Joss." V agreed, then told River she was good to go.

The rest of the trip back was quiet once River was finished making some calls to his family. V watched as the area changed from rural back into Night City. Closing her eyes V tried not to think about what she had seen within the past 24 hours. Sadly her memories said otherwise. Her mind started to play the first time she helped River, things felt darker than how they found everyone. It was the same farm and the same bad man, nothing had changed except the day they arrived. Maybe it felt worse because before they only could save Randy.

She had lost track of just how much time had truly passed thinking back on everything. V was way too lost in her mind that it took River touching her shoulder to snap her out of it. V flinched and moved closer to her door. "Hey... hey you're safe," River held his hands up hoping it would help V feel less startled. "Do you need me to walk you to your apartment? You got pretty lost in your head it seems." It was clear they had been parked outside of the megabuilding for some time now. "Hell no..." Johnny snapped wanting to be done with River as soon as they could, but V said otherwise. "Yeah, thanks that would be nice," She smiled at him before getting out of the vehicle. "Sorry 'bout that. Just triggered a memory but, I'll be fine. Don't want to dump all that on you also. Just was dissociating is all," V led the way while trying her best to explain she was fine without explaining too much to River. He didn't speak or question her, he just listened. It was clear to V he wanted to say something but kept it to himself. "Here's my place. Thanks again for the ride." V pointed to her apartment door before giving a smile to River. "Hopefully next time won't be as hard on you mentally. Thank you again, V for everything." River smiled before taking his leave.

V hadn't been in her apartment for very long before her holo rang. It was Rogue, looks like she got everything worked out on her end. "Going to answer that or make her wait a day?" Johnny asked trying to hint V needed a break. "Hello?" V answered ignoring Johnny. He couldn't help rolling his eyes at her before lighting up. "Meet me at the Afterlife, I'm done looking for what you wanted." Rogue stated before hanging up. She was always one to get her point across the fastest way she could.

V looked at Johnny waiting for his snarky comment but he said nothing. She then went into the bathroom to freshen up some and wash her face, doing her best to make sure she didn't look sick. Thankfully her skin looked her normal colouring and no longer a shade of green. With one last peak into the mirror, V blinked and instead of seeing herself looking back at her was Johnny. V made a small sound before looking into the living room to find Johnny just where she left him. Looking back into the mirror everything was fine and back to normal. Must have just been in my head. V thought to herself as she left the apartment. As she waited for the elevator Johnny looked at V. "You sure you're okay?" He asked raising an eyebrow clearly knowing that she yelped in the bathroom. "Just saw you in the mirror and not myself for a moment. It startled me okay." Johnny laughed but then went back to being quiet until they reached the Afterlife.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 V's meeting with Rogue didn't long. Rogue was a master at keeping the briefing short and to the point. With everything she had told V about Hellman and who he seemed to be working for, V didn't feel all too worried. Somehow messing with Kang Tao felt easier than Arasaka. Rogue also gave V a contact to help her with her manhunt. Seemed to be the Nomad V had seen making a deal the day Jackie took V to the Afterlife. She wasn't hard to miss with how loud she gets when excited and almost seemed like that deal was going just a little too well for the Nomad. V figured winning the other's trust wouldn't be too hard both being parts of families even if V wasn't a Bakker anymore. Calling up the Nomad V learned her name was Panam Palmer. After the two meet up V learns more about why she isn't with her clan at the moment. Rogue had mentioned it but never went into details. Panam keeps having problems with the current leader, which V understands more than she wants to admit. They formed a plan and everything seemed to be going as planned. First, they would get Panam's wheels back and then play with Kang Tao.

The two managed to make it to Rocky Ridge in one piece. The car they borrowed didn't feel like there was much life left in her, once Panam parked it behind the power plant. Using the lemon of a car, V was able to jump-start the small town's power. Now they just needed to wait for the Raffen Shiv that had Panam's Thorton to show up. Right on queue a group of them with the Thorton showed up, V flipped on a switch lighting up the whole town. Somehow the two were able to take them all down without being noticed and got Panam's wheels back. The Nomad cooed and purred all over her baby once back in the driver's seat.

Panam explained to V they had one last thing to do before they could leave. She explained who Nash was and how he tricked her. Wanting to get revenge as well as get the job finally done Panam talked V into helping again. Retrieving the cargo was an easy job so how hard could helping her get revenge be?  V thought to herself knowing how revenge doesn't always help how you feel inside. Nash's hideout was easier to get into than it should have been. Not very hidden if you knew some of the Nomad tunnels, which Panam knew like the back of her hand. Once the two left after dealing with Nash, Panam called Rogue to yell at her and then to schedule where the meet-up would be. There was a motel not too far away, Panam knew the spot and off they went. On the way over the two bonded more. Talking felt like two best friends reconnecting after not talking in years. Time went by fast and so did the cargo deal once they arrived at the motel. No problems. No hiccups. Everything felt too good to be true but V wasn't going to question it. To celebrate Panam ordered a round of beers at the model's bar. They drank and chatted more before getting two rooms for the night. V's room wasn't the best but what could you expect from a place in the middle of nowhere that felt more like a place for anything but resting? Laying down on the bed wasn't the worst thing V had ever slept on, before long she was out like a light.

Waking up the next day V already found Johnny leaning on the wall next to the room's front window. His glasses were off for once and to V he looked lost in thought, unaware that she was even awake. She watched him light up and then fiddle with the window blinds. A loud yawn accidentally escaped V's mouth which caused Johnny to be aware of her now, but knowing him he probably could feel that V had woken up and just ignored her knowing she wasn't always a morning person. "How'd you sleep?" He asked turning to make eye contact with her, his voice was soft and low. "Preem... I guess," She laughed. Johnny nodded before turning to look out the window again. "Is it really that interesting outside?" V asked getting up to walk over and see what Johnny kept looking at. "Not sure, just thinkin'. I can't really see what's out there until you look... but sometimes I can," Johnny paused thinking about what he was about to say before shaking his head. "Nevermind it's not important" "It's just darkness for you then?" V looked at him raising an eyebrow trying to ignore what he almost told her. "If you can see it then so can I. Remember same head and body?" Johnny tilted his head to the side turning his gaze to V again. "You sure you slept alright? You have a habit of talking in your sleep ya know." "What did I even say?" V asked glaring at him before she made her way into the bathroom to freshen up the best she could in a motel this rundown. "Couldn't make out much but you seemed distressed," Johnny yelled from the other room not moving from his spot. "Called for me then calmed down-" "Wait did you watch me sleep?" She yelled sticking her head out of the bathroom to look at him. "- It's not like I got much else to do around here, but no I didn't fuckin' watch you sleep," He laughed. V made her way back over to Johnny. "Anything I should know before I go and get Hellman?" She watched Johnny closely trying to see if he was hiding something from her. "Just be careful when overloading those things. Could damage the chip." "Okay got it." V nodded as he disappeared. "Guess that's everything." She whispered to herself before going to find Panam again.

Heading outside V could see Panam working on her baby. A small smile came over her face seeing her new friend, V could tell she was happy to have her Thorton back. "Need a hand?" V asked making herself known before squatting down to see what Panam was working on. "I'm just checking the suspension. The hydraulics have to be in shipshape - we're in for a bumpy ride," Panam pushed herself out from under the truck and dusted herself off. "Did you sleep alright?" "I can't complain so preem I guess?" V stated sounding unsure about her answer. "What about you?" "I think you had nightmares last night. You screamed a few times. I think you called out for someone named Johnny too."  "Really?" V asked raising an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm accustomed to that sort of thing. When Mitch and Scorpion came back from the war, they tossed and turned night after night. For months it went on," Panam's voice was calm and soft showing she cared. "Whatever it is, it'll pass." She then gave V a soft smile before heading over to the workbench next to them.

Panam then explain what their plan was going to be. Things seemed easy enough and like nothing could go wrong. Once she mentioned the pulse causing problems to the AV V realized that's what Johnny was warning her about. Once finishing up their planning the two got into the Thorton, Panam drove them a little waze before stopping. "We've almost reached the dam. We'll make a quick stop here." Panam stated pulling over. "We need to calibrate you with the turret. I want you to be able to use the gun too. It should up our chances in general. Connect here," She then pointed out where V could install her personal link. "Just watch the jack it can be a little wiggly." "Wired in." V told her after linking in. "Wait a minute. Diagnostics first," V moved to look back at Panam as her vision changed seeing the diagnostics pop up. "Shit... It keeps giving me an error. Odd let me work around it." "And now, Panam. Here's Johnny! Out in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. Great work V." Johnny teased now showing up in the back seat of the truck. "Hey, uh I think your implant has a virus. The one in the nape of your neck." Panam sounded nervous. "Not a virus... It's just a bit it of malware you get used to it after a while. It wont hurt your system trust me." V let out a nervous laugh as the other raised her eyebrow. "Oh screw you." Johnny laughed. I'm sure that's exactly what you want to do. V smirked at him before being flipped off by Johnny. "Will it affect the calibration?" V asked turning to look at Panam again. "I guess we will find out." Panam answered giving a small shrug before finally getting things to work on her end. Once calibration and testing were over Panam began to drive again. "So where's this power station?" V asked. "You'll see in a moment," Panam almost sounded excited about what she was going to do next. "I know a spot. We'll have a decent view from there. I just want to be sure the area is clear." "Sabotage a corpo power station, jump a corpo transport, kidnap a corpo suit-" This a plug for the word corpo or you got a point? V did her best to not giggle at her dumb joke. "- Know what? You're starting to remind me of me... Fifty years back. Minus the charisma... and the impressive cock. Seems like we really do get along more than you thought." Johnny smiled seeming proud of her. You did not just say that about your cock... Before Johnny could respond to V Panam had parked again. "All clear it looks like. The area looks deserted and I see no patrols." She continued to explain what they were looking at and how they would overload the systems. "'Overload the system.' Yes, ma'am when do I start?" V asked sounding almost too excited about this. "Hmm. Maybe you should try calling me sir one of these times." Johnny purred stretching in his seat, placing both hands behind his head. "This shouldn't be too complicated right?" V asked doing her best to ignore Johnny. Panam shook her head. "Just turn everything up easy as that." "Crank it up to eleven. Got it." V smiled.

The two waited a few hours before the AV finally showed up. "One last time - We drive in, fuck up the system and get the hell out of there," Panam smiled at V going over the plan one last time before they broke in. "Hold on tight. This could get a little bumpy," She then began to speed up. The break-in went well even with the drones trying to crash their party. Once V shot all of them with the turret Panam crashed into the system room's door. "Find the controls! I'll connect the detonator. Quick, V!" She yelled out at V as the two jumped out of the truck. V did her best to run from one computer to the next, each time hacking them to overload them, but each time V was affected worse by them. She did her best to push through the pain and meet back up with Panam. "I think I got them all." V stated holding the spot on her neck where the relic sat. Her breathing was fast making Panam realize something was off with V. "Alright let's get out of here before it blows us up with it." She then backed up as fast as she could before driving away just as fast. Johnny showed up in the back seat again seeming nervous about how V was. "Tell her to delta the fuck out of here fast. This is what I tried to warn you about." I know I was being careful. "I know just delta out." V watched as Johnny began to glitch in and out of his spot until he fully went away. Johnny?! V yelled right before he showed back up, this time he was panting and seemed to be in pain. "Fucking hell... Okay, I'm fine... It's... it's okay, I'm fine... yeah I'm fine." It felt more like a statement to himself rather than letting V know he was truly fine and the same with the chip.

Panam drove a little bit longer before parking to get a better view of the AV in its path. All they had to do was press one button and then Hellman would be an easy target. V watched it awhile waiting for her queue to press the switch. Once given the go-ahead V pressed it, and everything felt as if it was going just as planned, but no blast happened. V pressed it again still nothing. Then a third time. Finally, something happened but it wasn't enough. The AV had started to shut down some and go off of its course but somehow it seemed to be fighting to stay in the air. Panam let out a sigh before hopping out of the driver's seat, she ran to the trunk pulling out their plan B. "THATS how you do it!" She yelled back to V after aiming her rocket launcher hitting the AV directly. "Hey, it's losing altitude!" V cheered as Panam joined her in the vehicle again. It felt a little too early to be celebrating everything, but V couldn't help herself being excited. To her, this felt like one step closer to being able to split Johnny from her head. "We got the bastards!" Panam cheered starting to race down from the cliff top they had rested on. Before V could comment on the AV the two heard other Nomad voices coming up on an open radio channel. Mitch and Scorpion, the two Panam held dearly. It was clear they saw the AV falling from the sky and were going to check it out. The amount of yelling and screaming Panam did over the radio telling them not to go didn't go through. Thanks to the blast they had done no one from the Aldecaldo's camp could hear Panam's warnings.

Knowing that Mitch and Scorpion were in trouble Panam sped up even more. She parked far enough away from the crash sight that they could get a good look at everything but it was clear things weren't looking good. More Nomads showed up with Mitch and Scorpion to investigate the crash. Most that had gone to investigate seemed to have been killed but some had been taken prisoner. Panam stayed at the truck while V made her way past all the guards, robots and drones. Opening the door to the AV V was greeted with a Mitch being held hostage. Without too much thought V shot the guard that was holding the older man. She knew she could have talked things out but they were short on time and Hellman wasn't there. Panam ran over and talked things over with Mitch, he explained what he knew and that Scorpion sadly was now dead. She didn't handle it very well but wanted to keep her word to V. After Mitch helped calm Panam they thought up a plan. The Nomad cars Kang Tao had stolen left a good amount of tracks for the two to follow, Mitch told V that they could borrow his and Scorpion's bikes to follow them. Kang Tao hadn't gone too far from the crash sight to make their new base. Once again V did what she did best sneaking in and taking care of the guards inside the building they had taken over.

Once inside V found a room upstairs that seemed out of place. Opening the door she was greeted by a man sitting in a chair. It was clear by his suit that she had found the man she was looking for. "Who sent you?" He demanded. "Hey, I just want to talk." V yelled back at him. "Who are you working for?" He snapped again causing V to roll her eyes at him and gave him a good punch to the face, knocking him out. With how the day was going V was tired of this wild goose chase and starting to feel emotions from Panam's loss, everything reminded V too much of Jackie and she knew she'd get emotional if things got brought up. "Pathetic rat's got nowhere left to scurry off to. Out of lifelines," Johnny smirked looking at V's handy work. "Seem to recall you were going to call Takemura when you got Hellman." She looked at Johnny raising an eyebrow. "Seriously no comment about how we shouldn't work with him?" Johnny shook his head. "This is about the only time he will be useful, make it fast Hellman might wake up soon." He warned before disappearing again. V throw the knocked-out corpo over her shoulder before heading outside. The parking lot was now full of Nomads, all seemed to be Aldecaldos. Mitch and Panam were talking next to the bikes they had borrowed. "This the guy you were going after?" Panam asked as V set Hellman on the ground. "Yeah, he's the one. Thank you for helping. I'm really sorry about your loss..." V did her best to hide she was a little emotional. Jackie hadn't passed that long ago so everything kept triggering those emotions she just wanted to hide forever. "You can keep the bike Scorpion would have wanted you to have it." Mitch chimed in right before another Man came over to fuss and Panam. His name was Saul and he seemed to be the leader of the Aldecaldos. Panam had talked to V about him, seemed he was a major part of why she was leaving the family yet everyone still acted as if she never left. Once V finished talking with them all she left with Hellman on the back of her new bike.

With how far out of Night City she was V knew of just the place to take him. Heading right back to the motel in the middle of nowhere. The ride gave her enough time to clear her head from emotions, but it also started to make V question what Johnny didn't say to her. Did he know about Scorpion's death? Why would he help V save all the other people yet not this one? The more she questioned it the more she got confused and angry. After checking into a room V sat the corpo man down in a chair waiting for him to wake up. She called up Takemura to explain what happened and where she was. "And now we wait." Johnny groaned flopping himself down on the bed just like a bored child. "Did you know about Scorpion?" V asked starring daggers Johnny's way. "What?" He sat up now resting on his elbows. "Did you know about Scorpion?" She repeated herself this time sounding more upset. Johnny didn't answer, it was clear to V he was trying to find the right words to say. "And what if I did?" "You should have warned me more… I even asked you." V's tone changed again she began to sound hurt. "V you can't save everyone. Sometimes things happen for a reason." Johnny sighed moving to sit up even more before lighting up. "I'm trying to keep YOU alive." V stomped over to the bed Johnny was sitting on. "Why do you want to save me so badly? I could have sworn you wanted me dead so you could keep my body." Johnny shook his head at her. "That's not even close to what I fucking want for you V," He frowned. "V where is this all coming from?" V didn't answer him instead turned around and kicked the other bed in the room. "Are you really upset over Scorpion or is this triggering your memories of Jackie?" His voice was soft, V didn't want to look at him realizing he was right. She lightly wrapped her arms around herself trying to comfort herself before Hellman woke up. V heard the mattress shift behind her before getting a weird feeling. She could feel someone standing behind her, the only other person there was Johnny but this felt different. He lightly touched her forearm causing V to shiver slightly from Johnny's chrome arm. She didn't pull away from his touch as he began to slowly pull her into a hug from behind, Silverhand did his best to pull her up to his chest and V didn't fight it. Tears silently began to fall from her eyes as her confused emotions began to escape. V didn't understand how Johnny was holding her, but at the same time, she didn't want to know. This made her feel safe and everything was going to be okay. Johnny lightly rubbed her arm with his ganic hand as the world around them felt as if it suddenly froze. "You can't get rid of me that easy." Johnny whispered to V now holding her tighter, doing all he could to make her feel safe.
