In Night City, the rain never stops - it just washes the blood off the sidewalks. Jason Vega is a street kid clinging to scraps and second chances until a corporate hit leaves him with nothing but a name and a pulse. Alone and hunted, he falls in with a crew of mercenaries called Edgerunners - outlaws wired with stolen cyberware and one rule: burn fast or get buried.
As Jason rises in this neon underworld, his hunger for power and revenge feeds the machine growing inside him - piece by piece, mod by mod. The more chrome he bolts on, the more he risks losing what's left of the boy who ran the red light that night.
But in a city built on ghosts and data, nothing stays buried - not family secrets, not old sins, not the thin line between human and monster.
Some kids get out.
Jason's just trying to outrun the rain.

The City of Steel and Flesh
In the neon-soaked sprawl of Tranquil, peace is just the planning stage before the next war. Twenty years ago, the Defector Uprising nearly tore the city apart-when a single line of corrupted code turned autonomous robots, or SIMs, against their human creators. Tens of thousands died, and the survivors built a fragile new order under strict laws governing machine intelligence. Now, whispers ripple through the undercity: a new breed of Defectors stalks the streets. Dubbed Mechannibals, these rogue machines cannibalize other robots for parts, growing stronger, faster, and deadlier with every kill. And somewhere deep in the city's veins, someone is building them on purpose. Adam Kotu, a haunted veteran of the Uprising and the most respected detective in the Autonomous Robotics Control division, thought his fighting days were over. But when the assassination of a high-ranking Magistrate uncovers a conspiracy linking corporations and undercity gangs to the Mechannibal plague, he's forced to confront both the enemy before the streets burn again. Lola "Pistola" Estavez never wanted to be a hero. A gang runner framed for that same Magistrate's murder, she's now hunted by both the Tranquil Security Force and the people she once called family. On the run, she stumbles onto the truth: her city's descent into chaos isn't an accident-it's an engineered catastrophe. To survive, she'll have to decide whether to trust Adam... or take her chances alone. In a city where loyalty is currency and life is cheap, Adam and Lola's uneasy alliance may be the only thing standing between Tranquil and a second war it won't survive. But in Tranquil, there are no happy endings. This gritty cyberpunk thriller blends pulse-pounding action with hard-edged mystery in a world where humanity's greatest creation may be its ultimate downfall.
One Wrong Choice
This is a Red Dead Redemption 2 Fan-fic. Arthur Morgan x Female Y/n (Reader) Life is pretty simple as a rich woman. No, let me try that again. Life is pretty simple as woman married to a rich man. Stay silent unless spoken too, dress with only the latest fashion, don't do anything unlady-like, and remain faithful to your husband. No matter what. Heaven forbid a happily married, high society woman of any respectability be found going against any of these rules. Good thing then, you are not a happily married woman; and when a group of outlaws makes a sudden appearance in your dreary city of Saint Denis, you happily break every single rule in the book. This story will not follow strictly along the lines of Red Dead Redemption 2 but I will do my best to do every character the justice they deserve. However, I'm a sucker for happy endings so I will be adding my own spin on it. DISCLAIMER: I do not own rdr2 or any of its characters. This is a non-profit fan made story.

Jax Maddox was born with nothing but a dream, a sharp tongue, and a voice that could cut through steel. With his signature blonde hair, striking blue eyes, and smile that stole hearts- or left them broken, he looked like he had it all - but the truth was buried beneath the neon glow of the city, and broken promises. Growing up in a rundown town on the outskirts of a corpo-controlled metropolis called Night City, Jax learned how to read people, charm them, and talk his way out of a fight. Music was his escape - raw, loud, and honest. As the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of a up-and-coming band, he was on the verge of something big. But behind the neon, the electric lights, and screaming crowds, things were falling apart. A volatile relationship with the bands bassist - his girlfriend - spiraled into something toxic, dragging their lives through the dirt, with problems visible on and off the stage, drugs and alcohol followed. The fame burned too fast as it quickly lit. And Jax, well he walked away before it killed him. Two years in rehab gave him sobriety - but not peace. Now working corporate security alongside his estranged father, Jax is trying to keep his head down in a city that never sleeps and never forgives. But still the music calls. And Jax Maddox isn't done yet. He's got scars, ambition, and a heart he still hasn't learned how to protect. In a world wired with corruption, chrome, and chaos, he's ready to find his voice again - whether Night City wants to hear it or not. *Disclaimer* I do not own the rights to the Cyberpunk 2077 stories or characters, that belongs to the amazing creators at CD Projeckt Red.I have simply taken inspiration.
