Arasaka Tower

David rubbed at his face a bit, sitting on the hood of Bast while Falco sits behind the wheel, smoking in silence. David leans back a bit to look up to Arasaka tower, before he chuckled a bit, shaking his head before nodding to Falco, sliding off the hood he began to jog down the street before he turned down an alley.

He began to use his new enhanced abilities to leap between the two buildings.

Clearing almost 20 feet with each leap as he shifted his jumping from each building before he reached the top floor of the building, entering through a window to have Lucy leaning against the wall, sitting with her legs crossed and relaxing back. As she sensed David get close and watched him turn down the alley with a camera her eyes opened and she smiled up at him.

''Ready to infiltrate?'' She asked as David moved to sit beside her on the ground, relaxing back, only to have her pull his head and lay his head onto her lap, stroking his hair with her fingers, scratching into his scalp.

''Of course, I am, just hoping I find enough stuff to make it worth the time of infiltrating... I'll also be trying to grab data from that Tanaka guy as well, see if I can't help the crew.''

She nodded, leaning down to press a kiss to his forehead. ''Look at you, like a knight in shining armor.''

David snorted with a quick breath through his nose. ''Fuck shining armor, any knight that has shining armor is a kiss ass, or hasn't seen battle... No reason to spit shine armor that will just get bloodied again.''

Lucy raised her brow as she grinned. ''Then my crazy, 'Cyberpsycho' boyfriend who's got a frightening ability to make himself sound absolutely bonkers? While having a fascination with chainsaws?''

David chuckled, raising his shoulders in a shrug. '' What can I say, men like power tools, even if you don't actively seek a job in it, no man can resist the trigger pull, always twice, no more, no less. Just in case.''

Lucy smiled, rubbing her thumbs along his temple. ''If find anything about... You know?''

David nodded. ''I'll copy everything I see, then destroy any evidence, or information about it, I'll be sure to leave nanites that will warn me if they go searching for it, or try to find physical evidence... I'll be sure to cut your ties with this world before we leave it and become space pirates. ''

Lucy giggled softly, leaning down to rest her forehead against his own. A moment of comfortable silence before she spoke. ''If you hurry up, I'll give you a blowjo-.''

And he was gone, there one second then gone the next, getting cheerful laughter out of her, knowing full well he did it just to amuse her.

SPEED BABY!

Ever clock 74 MPH with nothing but your body? Must SUCK.

David leaped from the building he was on with such force it felt like he was flying for a moment, this is why he needed that gravity tech, if he could tweak it, make it his own. He might be able to just straight up fly, not the best to do since it was hard not to notice a flying man, but the cameras were on a loop just long enough for David to get into the facility.

His Sandy was still up as he landed and sprinted along the lower roof he landed by the tower before he leaped across the street into the open window, it was then his Sandy stopped and he continued to move.

He knew the entire layout of the tower, including the layout of the 'Hidden' parts beneath, going straight for the elevator just as someone called it to a higher floor.

Able to easily get the elevator doors opened he quickly slid down the thick cables that held the elevator as it traveled between floors. Sliding down easily all the way to the first floor, then into the basement he landed softly, his new shoe soles having 'dampening' features. They weren't as good as the nanites, but they allowed him a lot more freedom of movement without needing to worry about sound.

From just the jump, he had already built up enough kinetic force to activate stage three with his gorilla arms, so that was good to keep in mind.

Now that he was at the bottom of the current elevator shaft, he needed to enter a vent and slid down into the lab, since for reasons David wasn't going to get into, the lab was now heavily reinforced, with thick enough planting to fend off a tactical nuke.

It took him some time, just trying to get through the absolute maze of the vents while also avoiding any security measures placed.

But eventually, he was able to grip his fingers into a vent and like he was pulling a piece of paper from the pile, pulled it up to him and set it down inside the vent, dropping into the janitor closet he had found.

Now, all he needed to do was get across the main floor, and down a flight of stairs and he would be in the lower labs, where the main servers and information were being kept.

While he was checking the outside of the closet, making sure he had a clear shot across the floor, his nanites repaired the vent behind him, as if he was never there.

After waiting a few more minutes, a scientist turned his back and walked to a terminal, activating his Sandy, he was out of the room and across the floor and down the stairs before the scientist even turned around, none of the cameras picking him up since he had a thin field preventing cameras from picking him up.

Useful tech, but annoying to have up.

Also, a note to add, his nanites were able to keep up with him like normal even with his sandy activated.

As he made it into the lower lab and into the server room there was only one guy, watching data pass over the screen looking like a ghost of his former self, typing away at a speed hard to keep up with normal eyes.

Walking up behind him, David deliver a quick knockout strike to the temple, letting the man's body sag into the chair as he pulled the chair to the side, letting him step up to the terminal he began to type into it, after putting a familiar USB into one of the slots, the one he had created with the nanites.

He watched as the screen began to flash, information quickly moving as he moved to copy the entirety of their database, just for fun.

There were keywords he was looking for of course that would keep the files at the front of the storage so he could find them first, as well as keywords looking for the experiments and training Lucy underwent as a netrunner, along with any information on the situation, which after it copied it would move to wipe all information off it.

He also left digital bites of data in their servers that would warn him of any new information popping up, as well as let him download it directly from nanites that would return to him, then back.

Once he pulled all the information, not even ten seconds it took before he moved the man back into position, everything back as he found it, pulling out the USB he stimulated the guy's brain with nanites and he suddenly jerked up.

He didn't even question anything, simply back to his work.

David shook his head before he 'vanished.'.

As he moved he noticed someone was bringing the elevator to the first lab level, meaning he didn't need to crawl through the vents again, so making his way to the elevator, he slipped in just as the person left, quickly getting the cover off the top and placing it back he began to rapidly climb the cables with nothing but his arms as he made his way back to the floor he had entered on.

Getting the elevator door open was as easy as it was before, the window was still open.

Activating his Sandy it was a straight sprint out the window again, then across the lower buildings, leaping once more as he cleared the massive fence separating the tower's vicinity from the rest of the population, he cleared the street and the door on the third floor opened as David aimed for it instead of the window and landed onto the floor.

The door closed behind him as Lucy was already there with her arms spread out for him, pulling him into her arms she hugged him tightly. ''Good job, even if I was looking for you, I didn't see you, except when you were walking across the lab floor, it had pressure sensors, but I solved those.''

''Pressure sensors? Damn, almost like they were trying to guard highly valuable information.'' David remarked with sarcasm, causing Lucy to giggle as she kissed him softly. ''Like the 'Nuke proof' massive bunker around the lab didn't say the same thing?''

David chuckled, shaking his head. ''Say what you want, Johnny had style, and I loved his sidearm.''

Lucy nodded. ''I will admit, his sidearm was a nice iron for sure... Couldn't you replicate it?''

David scratched his chin a bit, thinking. ''With some time? I'm sure I could... Actually might get Rogue to talk to me if she sees me with it... Do I want Rogue's attention? Whatever...''

Lucy slid her hands along his chest, around his neck then up into the back of his head, smiling up at him. ''You were too quick for a 'stealth' mission... So why don't we get to a clean place and I show you how to burn some time?''

David grinned, Amen brothers.

David held the syringe in his hands, Lucy was in his lap as Falco was driving back to the 'Base'.

''You sure it will work?'' Falco asked, having taken glances at the syringe a few times himself.

''I hope it will work... The information and everything I pulled said it would, so I'm not sure how it will affect him, Adam Smasher doesn't even take it, he's just always in Cyberpsychosis, Arasaka just knows how to keep him feed so he doesn't go crazy... Well, crazier than he already is.''

Lucy was sorting through information through the uplink, staying quiet as she simply held onto David, though slightly amused that after the blowjob, she refused to let David return the favor and it genuinely seemed to bother him.

Something about 'The Guy's Code.' that made no sense to her.

David simply sighed, resting his cheek on his knuckles as he watched the road. ''We can only hope... It was already a miracle that I was able to get in and out without rising the alarm... There was a point where I needed to stand in a locker for like, an hour.''

Falco chuckled softly. ''Well, now we at least know we have someone gifted with stealth, that will raise the number of missions we can take as a crew.

They soon got into the base, the moment they parked Bast and got out, Dorio was on him before Rebecca could be, lifting him into the air slightly as she hugged him tightly, Lucy taking the syringe away from him just in case.

Making her way into the base to go inject him.

Dorio continued to squeeze him, David returning the hug as he lifted her into the air afterward, causing her to laugh, but she didn't stop hugging him.

''Thank you... David... Thank you so much, even if it may not help, no one is going to forget what you were willing to do to save Maine.''

David patted her back before setting her down, smiling down at her. ''He's like a big brother, to a few of us here, a ride or die type, the guy I would be more than happy to stand off against an entire MaxTec squad at his side.''

There was a shiver at the base of his spine when he said that, Dorio shaking her head. ''Maine wouldn't have wanted that, he'd have wanted you to keep going without him. Maine through these months has already been talking about making you his 'Successor.' if he ever kicks the bucket.''

That caused David to laugh, shaking his head. ''Where's here's to hoping we're under him for a bit longer, let's get inside and watch the progress.''

Dorio nodded as she began to walk back inside, Falco fist bumping him, and Pilar high-fiving him as he pulled the strangely patient Rebecca up to kiss her, his hands pulling at her plump ass to lift her up, having her sit onto his forearm.

She loved and hated how small David made her feel, especially in moments like this where he could hold her up like this... Though, it did make her feel taller and superior while like this, because it made her a foot taller than David, meaning she was now near Maine's height.

''Something wrong? You're quiet.'' David asked, looking up at her.

She nodded, leaning down to rest her forehead against his. ''Dorio loves Maine... Ya' know? I know we ain't got to worry about it... But I was watching her watching over him, all that hurt in her eyes... Worried she may never see him sane again, and I couldn't help but imagine me and Lucy in that position, you bordering on cyberpsychosis, again and again... It hurt because I know, deep down, if it wasn't for you, it would be a guarantee, we'd lose you...''

Rebecca's eyes were cloudy, biting her lip as she struggled to try to express her emotion outwards.

David watched her,  he already felt like shit lying to the group, but Rebecca was hitting him with puppy eyes, even if she herself didn't realize it. It hurt, badly. Right in his chest where his reinforced heart was.

He pulled her in softly, kissing her gently before he spoke. ''I'll tell them then... I won't tell them everything, but I'll be honest about the situation with them.''

Rebecca leaned in and hugged him as hard as she could. Continuing to do so while he walked into the garage.
