Every story has an end...and every end has a begining.
Chapter I-
The End...
A lone figure walked in the darkness of the night, the dark clouds were a harbinger for what was about to come. The eternal darkness, the final rest....The city streets seemed to be oddly abandoned the Bluepills weren't crowding the sidewalk and there was no traffic aside from the occasional beat up car.....Something was not right...
The Begining...(Dridiens PoV)
Every story has a begining and an end, every life is just a story, one which has already been set down for us. But there are those that choose to defy that destiny, those that would write their own future...I was one of them, I never really believed in this 'Fate' or destiny.
I had a simple life, a decent family, a loving wife and a son who strived to be more like me. I was the CEO of a technology company that I inherited from my father, I don't seem to have very many memories of him. Hajime Inc was rather popular, we designed weapons and systems for the Department of Defense and for the Justice Department.
Everything was perfect, but nothing seemed to go quite right...Those damned gangs also having their fights right out in the open, it annoyed the crap out of me. Me and my son often spent time researching their culture together, it seemed a bit odd but it was something we could agree on..they were nutjobs.
Work was rather eventful it wasn't all that uncommon to see a regular G man coming by the office to make sure everything was running business as usual, apparently some terroist had a fanatical following going on throughout the city or something...More nutjobs..
But today was different, three of them were in the office and someone wearing a leather trench coat was detained. They locked them selves in one of the office buildings and insisted that security be posted through out the building everything was on high alert.
This is the moment that my entire life went to sht....Suddenly those nutjobs with their black trench coats, spikey hair, and sunglasses bursted into the main lobby. We thought this was odd because well our office wasn't that important and we had all heard about the terroist attack on the government building recently.
The secretary hit her panic button when the "Redpill" shouted "Return to us that which is rightfully ours!" It didn't take long for security to burst into the lobby, and the redpills drew their weapons..and the security drew theirs..and the battle was on.
I stared fixated on my personal security monitor as they pulled off impossible feats, running up walls, dodging bullets, moving at super quick speeds. The security teams were quickly dispatched off and from the elevators came more heavily equipped tactical security officers.
Alarms were blarring through the building now as everyone paniced, suddenly I heard the voice of my secretary
"Sir an Agent West is on line two."
"Thank you Sophia."
I knew this had something to do with them, I answered the phone with a shakey hand
"Hello Agent West."
"Please remain calm Mr.Hajime. The proper authorities are on their way."
"We....Thank you...for your co-operation...such violations of the law will not be tolerated."
My head hurt, I heard the phone hang up on the other line so I slammed it down. Memories..Memories...Who the hell was I? This couldn't be f*cking real, this honestly could not be happening..I kept seeing some strange man..he had Green hair, and a long black leather trench coat.
He seemed familiar to me, he was one of them damned Redpills I could tell just by his looks. His hands behind his back, his sunglasses plastered over his face...his look of total and completely confidence...Who the hell was that?
I was at a complete loss for words now as I watched the monitor, people wearing trench coats of various colors had also stormed into the building. They were clearly redpills also but they started attacking the other ones, fighting with the security guards.
Then it happened, there was gun fire on my level as the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life barged her way into my office two pistols held in her hands. As I looked down the hallway three Agents were running forward with their own pistols drawn firing into my office
"Oh **bleep**!" Was my only reaction as I ducked down low, what the hell was going on!? This was all to insane to be happening. The woman with her black hair, painted white face, and red-lipstick slid out from behind the wall leveling her two hand guns she began to fire away I watched in awe from a hole in my desk as the Agents dodged the bullets it was just unbelieveable.
"Isolate his signal! Do it now!!' The woman shouted, I began to feel a strange tingling sensation like a complete wave of cold was washing over my body and then it stopped and I felt pain through out my body. But I watched as two of my closest friends twitched violently and transformed, I don't really know how to describe it.
But the scene was familiar to me, the gunstand off, the woman, the Agents..Everything..and then the Agents spoke Five of them standing their now.
"You are not authorized in this area!"
"Resistance is not an option Ms.Sylvia."
"You are in violation of the truce...surrender your self now..we will not ask again."
"You have no right to keep him!" The woman's voice was fierce as from behind the Agents another Redpill slammed his foot into the back of one, the Agent cracked his neck and turned around and began getting into a fight with them.
The "Redpills" poured into the building and began to battle with the Agents "Captain! Get him out of here!!!" One man yelled before an Agent slammed his fist into the mans ribs, sending him flying into a wall.
The woman was cursing as she turned and shot her pistol at the window behind my Desk shattering it, she walked around behind me "Get up Dridien! Damnit snap out of it!" The woman yelled grabbing me by the arm...I nearly had a heart attack right there as she jumped straight out of the building holding onto me. She slammed into the roof of another building looking over her shoulder.
"Don't let their sacrafice be in vain damnit!" She yelled at me again, who the hell was she...more importantly..who the hell was Dridien? And that's the begining of my story..as you can imagine I was dragged with her into some car and we drove off.
It was an abandoned warehouse where I made the biggest choice of my life..offered a world of Freedom and Choice...what I would find was hell....
