This chick is annoying me to no end. Mind getting her off of my mind?

Initial Contact

Ever see a network data packet stop and ask for directions? I see it all the time, man. I'm the fastest dude out there on the network. Well, other than that Neuron piece of - MAN! What I'd give to upload a virus straight into his own head. Kinda like what he did to me. But hey... whatever.

But you know what, man? He thinks he's all the best and all that? Thinks he's the fastest dude out there? Well, he messed up when he screwed around with my brain. But you know these neuro-stims I gotta take to live? Yeah... well they make me as fast as him. And even though they're gonna kill me, I'll use them to give him a taste of MY medicine and see how that punk likes it.

So, uh, you wanna get started or something? I don't have all day, you know.

The Savage Man

Part One: Hooked

Hey, so, you know all about me, right? Read the papers? Or the televisions? Maybe not? Well, here's the quick lowdown, because I'm not here to waste time. I used to be Lightspeed, best hacker in Praetoria. 'Till they threw me in the BAF. Turns out they don't like hackers 'round here. Thing is though, I ain't all reformed. Reformed? Hah! Not me, not ever. I'm out to stick it to Neuron, to reveal all the stuff he's been doing. Like me, for instance. He did some sorta experiment on me, trying to increase the intelligence of the average citizen. Things didn't go perfectly, so he up and abandoned the project.

Now, I got myself thinking a mile a minute on a slow minute, you got me? I already got this entire plan thought out. S'why I've been trying to get in touch with the Resistance, you know? My brain's gonna fry soon, dunno when it'll be. All I know is the headaches get worse every week. I wanna do something before my brain goes BLAM. It ain't gonna be pretty, but that's fine. Well, it'll be fine once we take it to Neuron. If you're gonna have my help, though, you gotta do me a favor.

What's the favor?

I gotta slow down. I know, crazy, right? Here's the thing, I got a thousand things running in my head at once. Feels like there's a fire going on in there, all the synapses firing off, bang! Boom! I gotta get myself the drug that Neuron used on me during the experiments. I know of a place where it is, but it's guarded by the PPD. Real bummer, you know? If you can get that drug, I can get myself worked down enough to concentrate on getting us moving forward. You cool with that?

Debriefing

You got the stuff! Man, knew you would have it. Commercials said you'd get it, but then I didn't believe it. Not commercials, thinking of something else.

Aaron Walker takes the medication and injects it into his arm. He lets out a relieved sigh.

Ohhhhh man... that feels so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm still the fastest guy around here. But now I got all my thoughts in a line. It's all cool, you know? I got focus, well, as much focus as I can get. And you know what that means? You and me, Character, we're gonna bring the fight straight to Neuron.
