A Giant Ape terrorizing Night City

V and Judy were waiting for the group at the Market outside the building. The trio met them there finding Judy having a cigarette in her mouth while holding a can of beer in one of her hands.

The street vendor seemed to be making sushi for them and John says, "The Clouds will be closed temporarily. If they ever open it again."

"It never had to go this far," says Judy judging John for taking it so far.

"You are too young to understand the consequences that come with the decision of storming a gang business. Do you even know who is backing the Tiger Claws?" says John to Judy who couldn't even retaliate against him.

"It is Arasaka who is backing them up," says John which made this now Corpo Business.

"Can you win against Arasaka?" asks John out of Judy who didn't answer back making John says, "I thought so. We did the right thing trust me on this. Now we should forget the Clouds and concentrate on getting V back together."

"I need to go deal with a small matter," says Nesiara seeing the Daishi Float Parade when V holds her head.

"Fuck, I forgot about Jackie and Goro," says V seeing the parade.

"Don't worry, I haven't," says Nesiara as she disappears from their sight.

"You aren't following her?" asks Judy seeing John still standing there.

"She doesn't need my help or protection," says John informing Judy.

"Also, I have something else to do. V, I hope to see you tomorrow for your check-up at Victor. He and I need to check that everything is really working fine," says John before turning to Grimoire.

"Didn't you say you needed to be somewhere else," says John as Grimoire remembered that he wanted to meet Panam.

"Right, I was just startled for a moment," says Grimoire as he leaves them.

John looked at Judy and V before sighing and saying, "You did well today. Don't let my decision eat you from the inside out and continue to walk forward. Soon you will be able to leave Night City together."

"Is it that obvious?" asks V nervous as John only smiles at her.

"I have raised enough daughters to know what is going on with just some simple glances. Just look after Judy, she isn't a Solo like you," says John as he reminds her again to be at Viktor's Clinic for the check-up before leaving as well.

In the meantime on Jackie's end, he was taking care of the snipers which were protecting the Parade when he says to one of them while bashing his head in with an iron rod that he found nearby, "Tu Chingada Madre."

"That is something new," hears Jackie coming from behind him.

He turns around swinging the iron rod only to find out that a finger stopped the rod. He followed the finger with his eyes and sees Nesiara and sighs in relief.

"Andale, I thought no backup would come to help me," says Jackie to Nesiara before letting go of the rod.

"We finished earlier than expected. But John won't join us since he needs to meet with Victor to talk about V's implants and guest," says Nesiara telling Jackie that she was the only one helping him today.

Nesiara looked around and asks, "How many snipers did you take care of?"

"This is the second one. I had to take care of a lot of his bodyguards to get to him," says Jackie as Nesiara looked around before pointing her finger in one direction at a time while releasing a small beam of ki from it.

She killed the remaining snipers when she throws an earplug at him while saying, "Take a break, Jackie. I will deal with the rest."

"Alright," says Jackie overwhelmed by exhaustion because he wasn't sleeping much the last few days preparing for this hit while placing the earplug into his ear.

He leaves the way he came from while Nesiara searched for the Netrunner who should be nearby by closing her eyes and using her instincts at feeling life. She found the Netrunner pretty fast and flew over toward where the Netrunner is.

Arriving there she feels a second person nearby making it obvious that it must be the guard of the Netrunner since he or she would be defenseless while being in the Net.

She pulls the cable from behind the head of the Netrunner disconnecting her when Nesiara says, "Jackie, it is done, inform Takamura that he should do his job."

"Will do so," says Jackie from the other end when suddenly two Mantis' Blades appeared from the corners of Nesiara's eyes.

She pulls her hands up and the scythes move on their own to her hands making her block the blades easily before saying, "You should run while you still can. My husband is going to burn Arasaka to the ground. He even told me to kill you but you are just a simple soldier and nothing more. Do you really want to throw your life away this easily?"

The person was putting more strength into the blades but they didn't move an inch away as they seemed to be glued to Nesiara's scythes when the person hears Nesiara's sigh.

Nesiara pulls her scythes down breaking the blades before turning her body at an immense speed and beheading the person that attacked her easily. The head was rolling on the ground still inside the helmet while blood began to flood out from the neck which sullied Nesiara's clothes.

"I should have used my guns instead," says Nesiara complaining about it.

"Nesiara, you need to deactivate the alarm on Hanako's vehicle for Takamura," says Jackie from his end.

"Copy that," says Nesiara walking to where the Netrunner was laying when she begins to play with the compartment with which all the security systems are connected with when Nesiara says, "Jackie are you far away from this place."

"I am seeing the parade with all the other civilians. They won't find me that easily," says Jackie reassuring Nesiara that he was safe when he hears Takamura talking to someone before everything goes south going by the conversation.

"Nesiara, you shou-," says Jackie when he hears a loud boom coming from where Nesiara should be and he shouts, "Fuck, Pendejo, Cabron!"

He wanted to rush over to help when he hears, "Jackie, leave as fast as you can."

"I am coming to help you!" shouts Jackie when Nesiara looks at the sky seeing a full moon hanging over her head.

"Stay away from where I am or you might die because of me," says Nesiara as her arms slowly got hairier which indicated that she was transforming into her Oozaru form.

Three helicopters were shooting at her while letting troops land on Nesiara's position while Nesiara grew bigger and bigger. The people weren't believing what they were seeing since it wasn't logical.

A giant ape with red fur was coming out of the building while trying to grasp one of the helicopters with its hand. The people fled in a panic as Nesiara squashed the Arasaka reinforcements with her feet by accident while the helicopters tried to escape.

She opened her mouth and a beam of ki illuminated the sky as the escaping helicopters were vaporized from this attack. She beats on her chest showing dominance as a real monkey would do.

John was with Victor when some emergency news suddenly took over the show they were watching. They were seeing Nesiara wrecking the city when Victor looks at John.

"Don't tell me that is one of your pets," says Victor shocked to see the giant ape on TV.

"I wouldn't call it a pet but rather my wife," says John revealing to Victor that it was Nesiara that was destroying the city at the moment.

"Wait Nesiara can turn into a giant ape," says Victor surprised before narrowing his eyes and looking at John when he asks curiously, "Can you do the same?"

"No, I don't have Saiyan blood running through my veins. But our children can turn to those if their tails ever regrowth. We cut them off and sealed them away on the same day of their birth so they wouldn't feel any pain afterward," says John seeing Nesiara going rampage again.

In the meantime at the Nomad Camp, Grimoire was playing around with Panam when Mitch breaks into Panam's tent with a pale face.

Panam rapidly jumped down from Grimoire while covering herself using her blanket before saying angrily, "Mitch, what do you think you are doing?"

"We have a problem, a big one," says Mitch in disbelief since he still couldn't believe what was going on.

"How big?" asks Panam seeing that Mitch was serious.

"It should be a sixteen-meter problem," says Mitch making Panam almost fall off the bed if Grimoire didn't catch her.

"Sixteen, what the hell is that thing?" asks Panam wanting to know what Mitch was talking about.

"It is a gigantic ape that is running rampage in the city," says Mitch when something clicked in Grimoire's brain after hearing that.

He began to laugh and Panam looked at him as if he was crazy while asking, "What is so funny about a giant ape running rampage?"

"That the giant ape is my grandmother," says Grimoire since he learned from John of the great ape transformation.

"Wait, Nesiara is the giant ape?" asks Panam as Grimoire nods at her.

"Yes, every Saiyan with a tail can transform into a great ape but only the best can master that form. My grandmother is one of them," says Grimoire trying to calm the two down.

They suddenly hear a roar coming from the west making Grimoire understand why the people are in a panic.

He stood up showing Mitch his wood as he leaves the tent without shame since he lost it when he trained with his grandfather. Now Mitch didn't know what surprised him more that the giant ape was Nesiara or the monster hanging between his legs.

Panam rushed right after him using her blanket as cover when she saw Grimoire looking at the city. She follows his sight and came face to face with what Mitch just told them.

"Now I know why they cut our tails off the moment we are born," says Grimoire remembering how his mother cut his sister's tail off when she was born.

Panam pointed at Nesiara who was wreaking havoc in Night City when she says, "How is she going to disappear without leaving a trace?"

"Most likely she will use Justice to enter Paradise to escape the attention. But she really created enough chaos to draw everyone's attention from Hanako," says Grimoire knowing that Nesiara was involved in the kidnapping of Hanako Arasaka.

Panam wasn't believing what was happening as Nesiara was brightening the sky by using the beam that comes out of her mouth. The people in the camp didn't know what to do as they were clinching onto their weapons out of fear while the children tried to find shelter behind their parents.

Everyone ignored the naked Grimoire as he sees Nesiara using her beam against two buildings and he asks, "Which buildings did she just hit?"

"I can't tell you from here," says Panam not being able to differentiate between the buildings this far away when Mitch rushes out.

"Nesiara hit Militech and Arasaka Towers!" says Mitch terrified as he was watching a live feed of what was happening while John was only holding his face in his hand as the ground was shaking around him and Victor.
