For the past several weeks a team of three seven-year-old human girls have cut a swathe of death and destruction throughout Desert Wars. This group was the brainchild of a middle manager in the PR division of a major Megacorp.
The girls themselves are corporate brats who were chosen for their sickeningly sweet cuteness and possess no innate combat abilities. Likewise, their deltagrade cyberware was spcificly designed to augment their cuteness first and provide combat abilities second. In all fairness, these children should have been slaughtered within minutes of first touching the sand. They weren't simply because opposing forces have standing orders to avoid harming them. You see, their age their cuteness and their popularity together mean that whichever Mega is responsible for their deaths will face considerable PR backlash and since esert Wars is televised there is no way to cover something like that up. The runners are hired by a mysterious Johnson supposedly in the employ of the child soldiers' families for the purpose of extracting them and taking them to safety. This requires infiltrating a warzone and taking capturing some heavily armed and heavily cybered children who's actions are constantly recorded and broadcast over live trid and simsense. The Johnson, of course, works for a rival mega and may or may not butcher them for their 'ware. |
