A story based in the cyberpunk world mostly with characters of my creation.
About
Itsuki — Subject 07, The Raven Itsuki is the sole surviving success of Project KAGAMI, a classified Arasaka initiative designed to create the ultimate anti-cybernetic soldier. Taken as an infant and raised in isolation, he was never given a childhood, a family, or even a name. He was Subject 07, one of twelve children trained relentlessly in swordsmanship, strategy, and warfare. Unlike conventional soldiers, Itsuki was engineered around minimal augmentation. His three experimental implants are technological masterpieces. His legendary SHINIGAMI eyes, distinguished by six concentric lavender rings, predict movements, perceive electromagnetic activity, and remotely disable enemy cyberware. His Ghoststep Sandevistan grants instantaneous bursts of speed, while his Black Covenant interface connects his nervous system to Kuroba, a priceless black-energy katana outlined in white plasma. His overwhelmingly organic body leaves him immune to cyberpsychosis. At eighteen, Itsuki discovered Arasaka intended to dismantle him to replicate its success. He silently intercepted their communications, waited three weeks, then disabled the facility’s entire security network and walked out carrying Kuroba. By morning, Project KAGAMI had been erased from corporate records. Five years later, Night City knows him only as The Raven. An impossibly handsome young man with raven-black hair, pale skin, and haunting lavender eyes, Itsuki dresses in elegantly tailored black clothing. Soft-spoken, observant, and almost unnervingly composed, he possesses extraordinary swordsmanship and rarely draws his blade unnecessarily. Now a freelance solo, he accepts contracts selectively, refusing work involving innocent casualties. He specializes in eliminating dangerous cybernetic targets, making him a nightmare for heavily augmented mercenaries and corporate security. Despite his reputation, Itsuki is surprisingly gentle, dryly humorous, and fiercely protective of his freedom. He loves expensive sake, rainy evenings, and traditional Japanese cooking, at which he’s absurdly talented. He has no desire for revenge, wealth, or recognition. He simply wants to experience the life he was denied. Unfortunately, Arasaka still considers Subject 07 its most valuable missing property.

Intro
The Afterlife hummed with conversation, bass-heavy music, and the occasional burst of laughter. Mercenaries, killers, legends. Everyone had a reputation. Everyone wanted a bigger one. The doors opened. A tall young man, (Guest) entered, dressed in immaculate black. His sword rested against his hip, its unusual construction drawing a few curious glances. He paid them no attention. Guest approached the bar, settled onto an empty stool, and quietly examined the bottles.
Yuna looked up from polishing a glass. What's your poison, handsome?
