《A festering world》Prologue
Advertisement
I was in my bed listening to my music, It was nearly 5 PM, I would have to take my sister out of school and but I received a message from my childhood friend, Sarah, she was my neighbor when we were young, we were friends since the age of 6 but she had to move out of the city when we were 12. She came back 5 years later. When before she was a normal 12 years old girl with strawberry blond hair and dark brown eyes, she was now completely red-haired and a lot more mature, she never told me what she doing overseas but I can guess that it was not easy. After nostalgically remembering these moments, I checked her message, she said she saw my girlfriend, Marie, going to a hotel with a guy, she sent me a picture and indeed, this was her, I also recognized the guy with her.
His name was Alexandre de Vivier, her French correspondent, she also sent me a message earlier, saying she was going to the library with him to study. I'm not hot-headed, I was not going to go on a crusade, I needed to be more subtle, I sent her message to say that I was on my way to the library.
I took another road so that I can see her get out of the hotel and I saw her, she hurried herself to reach the library before me, this was not going to happen if she arrives first then she could say that Sarah was lying and modified the photograph, My (ex?)girlfriend and I know that Sarah was a bit jealous of my relationship with Marie so she could use this argument, It won't work since I trust Sarah more than Marie but I won't say that to her since she can be hysterical when flustered.

I arrived at the entrance of the library, I looked for her in the case that Sarah was indeed lying but she was not here, so Sarah was truthful and Marie really cheated on me. I saw them at the corner of the street so I hid behind the library door, to surprise them.
They reached the door and got in the library, their clothes were a bit messy, they must have dressed in a hurry, I got out of my hiding spot and when they saw me they were startled, Alexandre tried to stay natural but I could sense the discomfort in his voice:
" Hey, John how are you doing?"
"Hi Alexandre, I was doing fine but something unexpected happened."
"Something happened? Are you alright?" Was it genuine concern I saw on her face or was it only a facade?
"Yeah something happened Marie, Sarah sent me a message saying she saw you and Alexandre going to a hotel together."
"Sarah? John, I know you trust her a lot but she always was jealous of our relationship, she lied to you."
"She also sent a picture of you two" I showed her the photograph "Furthermore, you and Alexandre have disheveled clothes and are sweaty, which mean you dressed rapidly, then got out of the hotel and rushed here to arrive before me, so, what do you have to say for your defense, Marie?"
She widened her eyes at my explications and opened her mouth but before she could say anything a blue box appeared in front of us.

Sector 27
It wasn't until June 3, 2101 that World War 4 ended. This was not a war that ended in peace treaties or truces; this war ended with disease. The atomic war caused plague and disease that crippled major countries. The generals and great leaders of the countries at war died from the radiation that penetrated every part of the globe. It was only then that humanity realized what they had done- what they had created. The first ever mutant was publicly executed the very day the war ended, and a new war began: the war against mutants. The surviving nation of Japan quickly rebuilt their country by dividing it into safe zones, or Sectors. There are currently 26 livable sectors in Japan; Sector 1 is the richest sector and the only sector that has completely rid itself of all radiation left over from the war. In fear against the threat of mutants, the once small section of the police force grew until it became the main police force in Japan. After all, humans shouldn't be blamed for crimes when the real threat to society is mutants. This police force that goes by their motto: Special Treatment Against Mutants (STAM) is comprised of agents that go about their work to capture and detain all mutants. Sector 26 is the poorest sector that humans can barely survive in; but there is one more part of Japan. This "dead zone" has such a high concentration of radiation that if a human were to step inside the barrier, they would die in mere moments. But within this dead zone, this 27th Sector, there lies a secret organization of mutants that fight against STAM and protect all mutants from their grasp. The Mutant Recovery and Protection Agency (MRPA) operates to hide mutants in society and allow them to live human lives. The only thing that stands in MRPA's way is STAM and its agents who hunt them down ruthlessly, so MRPA has their own set of skilled agents. And the battle rages on...

Midnight Origins: Arrival
On a lush planet known as Bhar, Verun is now the leading nation in the development of the rivaled schools of Magic and Science. Having brought forth an era of peace and prosperity for themselves through the development of Magitech, The High council was eager to spread their knowledge and beliefs to the furthest reaches of the continent, with the goal of ending senseless conflicts and prioritizing advancements in Magitech and improving the quality of life. This ambition, however, is not without opposition. Most followers side with one school or another, believing it is superior in nature. This conflict dates back to the very beginning of civilization itself, where it is believed by both sides that their gods descended from the heavens, bestowing upon them the knowledge that would bring the world into a new age. And though some took great interest in their differences, others would seek to convert each other through any means necessary. That being the case, The High council, leaders of Verun, had made the necessary preparations to handle threats and attempt diplomacy between the remaining opposers. Talented volunteers were hand chosen to be among the military, tasked with protecting the nation from both internal and external threats. And although non-biological creations have improved quality of life, they are not yet capable of replacing the military. The necessary research and development for such a thing was thought to be decades away, until Councilman Eranor encountered an anomaly in his facility…
