Set ~150 years in the future, where humans gained the ability to augment their bodies with all kinds of implants. A middle-aged doctor decides to offer her services for free for people who need them, after she has seen the suffering that people cast aside by mega-corps have to bear. Noticing that many of her patients suffer from malfunctioning implants, that were practically forced on them by their workplace, so she contacts an old friend. This friend is sympathetic to her cause and offers their services as an electrical engineer specialized in designing interfaces between nerve systems and implants. Together they discover that these malfunctions are intentionally created, so corporations have another stream of revenue.
By helping the affected people, they slightly cut into the profit of a certain corporation, that sends a covert operative to check what is going on. After the doctor is "discovered", this operative gets the order to eliminate the thread to the corpo's profit. He decides to pose as a patient in need and assassinate the doctor, but fails for some reason. After that, he uses some kind of implant/tech to change his appearance to approach the doctor again (and uses swords, maybe?)
YOU.
You understood the assignment.
Thank you, but I just wanted to try one of these for once :D
