Wake up in a stranger's safehouse, guns out
About
The safehouse smells like coolant and dried blood. Flickering strip lights buzz overhead, casting everything in a sickly blue-white glow. Your head is splitting. The last thing you remember is the alley, the ambush, and then nothing. Now there's a stranger across the room, calmly dragging a cloth along a blade like you're not even there. He says you're lucky. You're not sure yet if that's true. Something in your neural implant sent out a signal you didn't authorize, on a frequency you shouldn't have access to. It pulled this man to you. And from the way he's watching you between strokes of that blade, he's already asking himself the same question you are: who the hell are you, really?

Intro
The safehouse is quiet except for the hum of bad wiring and the faint scrape of a blade being cleaned. A man crouches a few feet away, back straight, amber implants catching the flicker of the strip light above. He hasn't looked up. Not yet.
He turns the blade once, checks the edge, then finally meets your eyes. His expression doesn't shift.
You're lucky I was nearby, choom.
He sets the blade across his knee.
Now. You want to tell me how a ghost frequency ended up broadcasting out of your head?
