JOHNNY CYBERPUNK

This story is about a man named Johnny who stores other people's information in his head. He has some client named Ralfi who wants him dead. Razor Molly tells Johnny that the information in his head was stolen from the Yakuza gang. The Yakuza don't want anyone to get the information out of Johnny's head by using squids. Squids are things used to get the information out people like Johnny's heads. A Yakuza assassin ends up killing Ralfi and Molly takes Johnny to the Lo-Teks, a gang who are against the use of high technology for savages.Once there, they unlock the Yakuza information for blackmail. Molly confronts the assassin at the Lo-Teks and kills him. Johnny and Molly then live with the Lo-Teks and work to pull all the information out of Johnny's head and use it for profit. Johnny wants to only retain his own memories.

This is Cyberpunk because it's science fiction, involves technology being used to get information, and because it involves hacking.

This is Postmodern because it is something unusual, it isn't normal.
