It's been a week. Being in hiding isn't as easy as I thought. Especially when you are possibly the most wanted person in Night City. Yes that's right. A bounty is placed on my head.

I wouldn't say that I have a bad living condition as I can no more head to my own personal estate, that is now surveillanced twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Gosh how I miss my home.

The abandoned apartment was a 'suitable' place to stay. At least until I can contact my mother. Since my grandfather's murder, my communications to Arasaka has been disabled, and my mother has gone anonymous. I would go to her penthouse, but I have a feeling that is not the best idea at the moment.

One thought stays in my mind. Why did uncle Yorinobu believe that I would be part of my grandfather's death? Anger towards my uncle runs through my veins. The craziest thing is, the whole city knows my appearance. I guess being Hanako Arasaka's anonymous daughter who has apparently 'killed' Saburo Arasaka doesn't last forever.

I finish my last sip from my can of colddrink. A sensor causes me to freeze. Someone's here. As soon as I grab my pistol and katana the door busts open. Armed Arasaka soldiers run in, more than I can count, and they aim their weapons on me.

"Stop right there!" One soldier shouts. I notice the cracked window in the corner of my eye and make a break for it. Once I jump out a bullet scraps my waist.

I land in water. Pure luck that there is no solid ground behind the abandoned building. I dive deep underwater as the soldiers keep shooting restlessly.

A moment later I climb out the river. Police sirens in the distance. I'll just have to find a new place that's more discreet. Before I can dry myself, a punch knocks me out.

My eyes open but my vision is still black. I hear unfamiliar voices speaking. I try to move but my hands and feet are restrained.

"V why did you bring her here?!" A female voice shouts in shock?

"She is the daughter of Hanako Arasaka, they assume that she killed Saburo Arasaka we both know that's not true... So...I can take her in and I get the three million eddies or I kill her right here right now, since she is an Arasaka, and Arasaka killed Jackie," The person named V states. The female sighs.

"..Judy she could help me with the relic. Having Johnny's construct inside my head...is killing me," V says almost pleadingly.

"Okay V, it's risky but okay I guess..." As soon as this Judy finishes speaking, bright light blinds me for a second. After a moment I get used to it.
