DRABBLE STORY ARC #3: A CITY OF REGRETS

Feast for Crows

A chapter of a cyberpunk ‘choose your own’ story — drabble edition.

Image generated by the author using Midjourney

This is a continuation of ‘A city of regrets’, a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition.” Find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here.

You watch as they keep taking swings until a kick in the head brings the perfect silence. You look at the man's lifeless body as the cops move past you.

“Have a good night, sir,” one of them says, “and remember to be a good citizen. Times have changed.”

You nod affirmatively and look at the dead man again. You can’t help but ask yourself, “Who was this guy? What had he done?”

There have been rumors in the street that the new police unit of the city consisted of ruthless, chipped cops that didn’t take no for an answer.

You decide to:

  1. Search the dead body. A man with a suit like this might be carrying valuable stuff.
  2. Leave the alley and get back to your room. Even staying at this place could get you into trouble.
  3. Call a friend of yours, a specialist who could help strip spare parts out of the body. If he has any, that is.
