The Streetkid

The Streetkid is a main job in. It is one of the three possible starting jobs, and is only available to players who chose the Streetkid Lifepath. V grew up in the streets of Heywood, Night City before looking for greener pastures in Atlanta. Several years later and no better off, V returns to their hometown and fatefully decides to help out a friend.

Walkthrough
V starts out fixing their broken nose at the El Coyote Cojo bar located in Heywood. Pepe, the bartender, tells V that he hasn't paid his debt to Kirk Sawyer, a new small-time fixer in town, and Kirk is threatening to break his legs if he doesn't pay soon. In exchange for forgiving V's bar tab, Pepe asks V if they can talk to Kirk to either forget about the debt or settle it once and for all.

V approaches Kirk and, while the he refuses to forgive Pepe's debt, a deal is settled. Kirk tasks V into stealing aRayfield Aerondight owned by a corporate from Arasaka. If V is able to accomplish the goal, then Kirk will forget about the debt Pepe owes him, and will pay V for the job. V agrees to the deal and heads over to the Westbrook where the car is located. Along the way, V hitches a ride with Padre, a friend and local Fixer. Despite a brief confrontation with 6th Street gangoons, Padre delivers V to their destination and gives them their card.

V uses a device given to them by Kirk that can unlock the car and turn it on, supposedly bypassing the alarm systems on the car to prevent the Night City Police Department from being alerted. Before V can drive off, they are surprised by Jackie Welles, who holds V at gunpoint, intending to take the car himself. V and Jackie are then interrupted by the sudden arrival of NCPD and Inspector Stints, who capture them. Stints criticizes Jackie and V on their life choices and how little has changed, but before he can take them in, an Arasaka corporate, Kaoru Fujioka, who owns the car, comes to see the commotion. He uses his corporate reputation to order Stints to kill them and dump the bodies in the river. The officers beat up V and Jackie, but Stints instead just leaves them in the alley since he dislikes corpos as much as everyone else.

V and Jackie wake up in the alley and talk as they take a moment to recover. After getting to know V and the reason why they were stealing the Aerondight he had his eyes on, Jackie says that Kirk isn't as powerful as he seems to be, and his threats against Pepe are hollow at best. Jackie then invites V to breakfast, ending the questline leading into a montage of them doing jobs together.

Journal Entry

 * Hows it feel bein' back home, V? C'mon, admit it - you missed Heywood. What, between all the dealers, hookers and total lack of opportunities, it's got its charm, don't it? You're born in Heywood, you die in Heywood. Unless you're one of the lucky ones, that is. What about you, chica/mano? That include you?
 * If there were an ad for Night City, it'd have Kirk's dumb, grinning face on it. He's slick, thinks he's smarter than he really is and is kind of an asshole, but whenever you call him, he's got the next Big Job that'll rake in millions - like stealing a car from a secure parking garage. 'Cause obviously the millionaires of the future are sitting in the Coyote Cojo scarfing down chili burgers... right?
