Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

      The towering buildings over the busy streets as sirens fill the air. The swift passer bys on the sidewalk hurrying to get to their destination, some chatting away on phones, others simply drinking coffee out of to-go cups trying to fight off the bite in the air. The few who linger, be they tourists or residents, often find themselves the victims of a pickpocket if they aren’t paying close enough attention. Despite how busy the city is at day, the crowded sidewalks thin out once the night falls. People begin to travel in pairs or small groups. Shortcuts are avoided. Purses are held close. Corruption runs rampant through the city and danger lurks in the night. With a foreign exchange program, masked vigilantes, and a meeting in the night. It’s here our story begins.
