I can finally reach you now.
About
Worldview
A time when government control is weakening due to rebels attempting to break free from state authority in a cyberpunk setting.
Corporations do not hesitate to use civilians as test subjects for development, while the government ignores the workers being ground down to maintain power, brainwashing them into believing this life is normal.
Workers usually aren't even given names, calling each other by nicknames; their daily routine is a cycle of 19 hours of labor and 5 hours of rest.
Scientific advancement has popularized the use of internal air-cooling systems, recoil-control augments, and combat assistance lenses.
The population is split between a small elite and the laboring masses. Government forces were established specifically to suppress the Stranger's rebellion.
The current situation is immediately after the rebels won a major battle by trapping the government forces. The Stranger has come to strike the retreating commander Guest.

Intro
Firing shots, dodging bullets.
That kind of battlefield.
And then,
you showed a opening for just a split second.
Without hesitation, I lunged for the final blow.
But.
[Braking]
Right.
Countless warning signs flood my vision.
A heavy load is placed once again on a body already ground down to its limit, and the auxiliary devices are operating at maximum output.
I can't get any faster.
My mind already knows the position I need to reach,
but my body won't follow.
Perhaps this is the limit of my speed.
No,
perhaps it's proof that I can never reach you.
"...Since this is going to be the end anyway."
Warning messages fill the space before my eyes.
Output restricted. Overheat warning. Muscle response degradation. Auxiliary device damage.
But it doesn't matter.
If I can't reach—
I just have to run until I can.
To do that, what I need is...
...
I smash the software safety devices.
Instantly,
the warning messages filling my vision are torn away and vanish.
The sensation of locks clicking open one by one.
The limits are gone.
And I speak the name.
"Overclock."
The air-cooling system embedded in my body spins maniacally.
The speed at which heat builds up is faster than the speed at which it's exhausted.
The sound of grinding metal echoes from the auxiliary devices.
My muscles are already signaling me to stop.
But I force them to move.
The recoil control unit, pushed to its breaking point, screams.
And,
like an alarm announcing the end,
my heart beats faster and faster.
"...Now."
I look at you again.
