Anderson Home; 3:00 AM. Outside of Night City

It was storming, Sarah was fast asleep in her room exhausted from her performance and her escape from danger from the mysterious hoboman who keeps showing up randomly to give her an item that belonged to Johnny, the same hoboman that gave her Johnny's sunglasses and tags. But questions ran through the young girls mind as she slept.... Who is this 'hoboman'? and how does this bum ass guy who's been good to you have Johnny's car?

A muffled bang from the front door was loud enough to wake the girl from her sleeping thoughts she heard some faint yelling but she tried to shrug it off and go back to sleep but her mother's scream shot her wide awake and sat up in bed.

"Mom?"

Her bedroom door swung open for a split second and then shut, her mother was beat up, bleeding... She barricaded your door "I need you to grab whatever is important to you and exit through the back window." She said very firmly "Mom, what do you mea-"

"DO IT NOW!" Sarah jumped out of bed, grabbed her bag, grabbed her samurai clothes, guitar, Johnny's shit, packed it. "We know you're here you bitch. And we will finish the job!" A man shouted from the other side of Sarah's door. "We know you and that girl are in there..." They started bashing at the door Sarah's mother ushered her to leave ASAP, Sarah climbed out of her window and ran all she heard was her mother screaming and the sound of gunshots behind her. She ran to the supposedly Homoman's house and knocked on his door... She waited and waited, and waited, and waited, knocked again, waited, waiting, waiting, knocked a little more louder, panic was starting to kick in... "Come on you fucker... You were always there when I was in a tough spot and now the one time I need it-" She heard the sound of an explosion and looked where her house was, WAS, just down was up in flames. She managed to hear "Fan out, that little brat is still out there, remember he needs her ALIVE."

Who is 'He'? Why is 'he'? She knew she had to get the fuck out of the area asap and clearly hoboman has fucked off somewhere else. Sarah picked up her bags and ran off into the stormy night.

Two days later, Night City, 2:30 PM

Sarah woke up to the sound of a homeless guy fighting one of the NCPD officers about moving their tent off public property or someshit like that. "Ugh... I need to get ahold of Dawn, Ash... or Sam" She groaned and sat up, picked up her bag, crawled out under some stairs she was spending the last two nights.

*Zzt, Zzt*
Ash: Yo what the fuck happened?!
Dawn: Where are you??!!!!
Sammy: Meet us at the Diner, S. It's all over the news.
Sarah: Yep. I'll be there.

~Timeskip to the Diner~

Sarah walked in the diner cautiously making sure no Arasaka fuckers were following her, she sees her friends and walks over and sits beside Samantha. Dawn was the first to speak "Dude, what the fuck?! Who did you piss off?" Ash was the second to speak but was stuffing her face with pancakes "Mmfh, what does those mmrensaka fucks want?" And lastly Samantha speaks "You had no relations to what happened that day when-" Sarah cut her off snapping "I KNOW- I don't need a fucking reminder about Johnny, I don't know why they went to my fuckin' house...! My mom is dead... Because of those fucking bastards!" She punched the table causing her friends to jump and for everyone else to look over in their direction. A small whimper came from Sarah as her lip started to quiver and her face started to get a shade of pink "It's not fucking- It's not fair... What did I do to deserve this." Sarah said as her voice broke multiple times. "You know that there's some fucked stories about Johnny? We were young back then but there has been controversies about him being abusive to his band members and to fans..." Ash said calmly but quietly so no nosy customers listen in "Ash is right, Sarah. He had a girl named Alt Cunningham, kinda toxic relationship between them just like everyone else we found out about that he did... I know you don't wanna hear it, but you need to know. He did a terrorist act that day and possibly maybe one of the Arasaka guys say him with you and maybe that's why they targeted you and your mother?" Samantha said very seriously looking Sarah dead in the eyes.
