Introductory Arc Episode 5

The crescent silver moon clawed the night sky as the veil of darkness descended upon the city of Prionier, a mosquito tired after escaping from the deadly onslaught of the insect repellent sprays as it rushed through a air vent was resting peacefully on the edge of an open window. Suddenly a hand emerged from the darkness and swiftly slid the window close, the poor mosquito flew in just in time to save its puny life. As the large figure submerged into the darkness the tired little mosquito got its senses heightened as she smelled the blood from the skin of the giant figure. Follow the scent it started chasing the giant figure.

[ On the 27th floor of the fragmentary building ]

As the shadowy figure completed the countdown, and looked at a clear picture of Asher's sleeping face through the scope of the Dragunov SUV rifle as a bullet of 7.92 mm diameter shushed out of the silencer with a speed of 830 meters per second and within moment's notice splintered the glass of his window into pieces.

[A little while earlier inside Asher's bedroom]

The mosquito finally located the giant figure as it laid motionless on the bed. Ready to have dinner the mosquito jumped on his cheek and pinned its needle into his skin. Feeling itch Asher turned around as a bullet sunk into his pillow splitting some hair from the back of his head. Asher being an was wide awake hearing the shattering of glass and immediately jolted off the bed and rushed out off his bedroom. Taking cover behind the wall besides his bedrooms door Asher tried to peek to take a glance at his room as he tried to assess the situation. It didn't take Asher long to come in terms with the circumstances that he knew had became unavoidable for him.

After shuting all the doors of the rooms that had windows in it Asher sat on his couch gasping as it was the only room in his two storied house that had no opening.

Putting both his hands on his head Asher started thinking," Damn! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die, right! Right! But why! Why man why? What in the hell did I do to deserve this kind of curse? I don't wanna die? I'm too young for that, I...I...I... don't want to dieeeeeee!" Before he knew it Asher started screaming, his whole body was bathed in sweat as he started breathing loudly. His heart started beating like a drum as he started hallucinating blood in the room, he looked at his palm there was blood, he looked at the couch there was blood, he looked at himself as he saw body covered in blood and started screaming indiscriminately.

As Asher was on the brink of losing all his senses he heard the meowing of a cat. He looked around to find a black cat who was almost as fat as his pillow with a white spot on his neck moving towards him. Coming forward the cat jumped on his lap as it cuddled on his lap and rolled into a fur ball.

With this Asher came down a little, gently stroking the cat's soft fur Asher said out-loud, "Ooh Kitty! within all this commotion it seems I have totally forgotten you, thanks for calming me down."

The cat purred lightly as if she was saying," Anything sweetie."

Stroking the cat on his lap as his laid his back on the couch, Asher started reflecting on the past events," Okay so right now I was having a panic attack wasn't I, Damn Kitty it almost saved my life. Alright I ain't dying that easily now, suck your thumbs you bitches cause I ain't gonna die. Let's evaluate the recent events, " So I went to Miss Mosley's, there I met Tiara who tried to steal my phone while kissing me, then started asking about a package after that she tried to kill me and now this who ever the **** it is tried to silence me in my sleep, but why, why you bitches why, wait! wait! wait! at the station while it was full of crowd that moron in the black only collided with me, right it must have been moron, I mean it has to be, did he drop something onto me, some kind of valueable chip containing some highly classified state secrets or nuclear codes or whatnot, who cares?"

After thoroughly searching the bag an the dress he was wearing, for almost an half an hour he found nothing.

After that Asher opened his laptop and started creating a fake IP address as he thought," First I need to escape their clutches an ghost for some time before I plan to do what's next, afterall survival comes first.

Tiara called using my phone so they have my number, they know where I am, where I might be, whomever I contact. For now they're here and probably keeping a 24 hours surveillance on my house, so I need to evade this place without letting them notice otherwise as soon as I am spot I am dead. The people chasing that asshole were carrying arms in broad daylight, so these people are associated with the police too so contacting the police is not an option any more. The way Tiara spoke to me she thought that I was the part of some sort of organization, shit who became a spy at the mere age of 14, whatever it's only thanks to that, they didn't broke in my house tonight but rather used a sharpshooter, but what about tomorrow? Most probably they would break into my house as soon as night falls, so I have upto tomorrow evening to escape. Since I'm trying to ghost myself I need money but as I'm still not 18 the principal acts as my legal guardian an pays me monthly allowance check and it's way past the mid-month so not much is left of my payment from the part time job, so I need money and I need to withdraw the cash since if I pay using my phone they can track me but neither can I go near an ATM as once I escape they will be searching everywhere CCTV there is in the city. Alright creating the fake IP is done now let's do the packing before bolting"

After he finished packing Asher opened his laptop as he rubbed his palms he said to himself," Alright now where are you Ryu, my dear Ryu Kanzaki, the golden goose of my plan, let's start the plan by contacting you, let the game begin!"
