Summary
David Martinez earned his position in Arasaka Acadamy through sheer determination and an innate talent in medical and cybernetics. Bolstered by his mothers support, he always dreamed of becoming a Ripper-doc, of paying for him and his mom's life, of rising above the slums and the pain of Night City on the back of his own efforts.
Now, with a dead mom, a spine implant with history of it's own, and nothing but his smarts and the favors owed him to truly rely on, he must carve his own path through Night City, finding allies, avoiding enemies, and earning a reputation all his own.
David has to admit... he's never felt so Alive.

System Override (Formerly: The Bloodsurge Edgerunner) by DaoistMystery

Summary
NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.
A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.
His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.
David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.
So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.
Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?
