Chapter 17: Pessimistic
Tokyo Underground Base
Level 12: Civilians Level
Section One: Marketing Hall
Millions of citizens of Tokyo road around in the extra-large hall, doing various activities. Bunkers for trade lined at the corners, the center long passage filled with space, people walking to and fro, bright light sensors, bright as day, enlightened the wide hall like daylight. Whispers, talks, and chats could be heard in every corner.
Uchida Anzai having dark brown shoulder-length hair unkempt and dull reddish-brown eyes was seated on the floor, his back against the iron wall far from the crowd passing by, his eyes bore on others as he drunk himself with each sip from the bottle of alcohol he held, his dull eyes landing on the picture he held, he took another sip his eyes not leaving the picture.
"Anzai-san!".
His head shot up when he heard his na, it ca from a middle-aged man halting his steps in front of him. Anzai grins.
"Ha... Kado, you’re here" Anzai said hiccuping, his cheeks flushed in a matter of seconds. Kado scowls at his actions, he had black hair and black bright eyes full of life.
"Now’s not the ti to be drunk, quick... the patrol team is coming!"
Anzai chuckles deeply, holding onto the wall to steady himself, he leans shakily.
"What will I do without you?"
"Well you will be fraction-less that’s what!"
Anzai features gloom in amusent, he shoves the picture he held into his pocket and brings out a packet of cigarettes.
"I still don’t get why you won’t register yourself and gain a faction".
Anzai just rolls his eyes lighting his cigar in his mouth with a lighter, he knew Kado was scolding him again, he liked the guy cause he always looks out for him whenever the patrol team began supervising the matters on each faction to keep the base running. Kado et Anzai when they were moved to the base, Kado was speechless and bewildered when he saw Anzai covered in wounds, they entered the sa tanker when they were moved to the base, not bothering to ask what caused his misfortune, Kado just helped him out and they beca sort of close. And to make things weirder, Kado knew nothing about Anzai, just his na Anzai.
Kado sighs knowing Anzai wasn’t listening to any words he was saying about him joining a faction and making a living for himself.
"And you are ignoring
again," Kado said, sighing out a poof of smoke.
"You sound like an annoying dad when you say things like that," Anzai said amused.
Kado just rolls his eyes.
"One day you will be caught you know, sooner or later you will have to register and trust
it won’t end well because you haven’t for the past 2 years, and that is against the law now we are off the surface".
"If that’s my fate," Anzai said, blowing smoke from his lips, his dull eyes staring at the tall ceiling that held bright lights, saying...
"Cause I’m already damned for hell!"

Room Hall
Hiro’s heart slams loudly in his chest ’Escape?!’ He thought with trembling eyes, his fists tight against the edge of the door holding onto it for support. He heard everything, their talks of escaping from an unknown facility, he wanted that with every fiber of his bones, he wanted to leave this place and find his parents in a heartbeat but sothing didn’t sit well with him, it wasn’t just that, his body didn’t respond to the idea of escaping even if he wanted to. He gulps hard.
Whispers fill the room hall, all talking about how good or how crazy their idea was.
"Well there’s no way I wanna be a guinea pig," Sumi said with a stern look, not liking the thought of it one bit, all attention averted to her.
"So tell
