Day 2
Location = Solar system
Time = INFINITE
Mind = UNSTABLE
You wake up in your spaceship. Your vision is blurry for some time. But it becomes clear when you hear the alarm. That your ship is being pulled by the gravitational field of a star. The autopilot system was not working as always. You kick the control panel and it starts working and reroute the ship to the nearest warp gate.
You check your computer for a new contract and found that there is a bounty of 10 million space credit on Meng T'ang. A scientist on the run cause of bounty is private. But you only care about the money to pay the loan and buy a new ship. You ask your bounty hunter guild leader for a possible lead. He agrees for 10% of the bounty. But you try to bargain. So you end up 14%.
He tells you that he has escaped to planet X. You never heard this name but a search on the database shows that it is one of the most dangerous planets in the solar system. Your ship had almost run out of energy so you land on Europa refueling station. There you find that your friend Daniel is also on Planet X. You remember the old days when you two were the best bounty hunter duo in the solar system.
On the way to Planet X. Another news tells you that there are 5 million bounties on your friend's danger. Because he killed a police officer on Titan on his way to Planet X. This news surely shocks you and it seems strange because you know Daniel since your childhood. He also tries to sort things without a fight and never hurt anyone innocent.
When you reached Planet X, The planet was about to shut down the warp ring. The planet was going under a planet-wide lockdown from the inner and outer solar system all transport is shut down under this lockdown due to gamma-ray burst. But even the gamma-ray burst can't stop you from getting Meng T'ang and his bounty. As soon as the planet goes on complete lockdown from outside.

Suddenly on all the planet chaos began. Coup d'état was started against the government. It was like the whole planet lost its mind in a matter of seconds. Almost 100,000 new bounties were launched. Most of them were government officials or their family members. Even normal people started to go on the hunt. The bounty was the same for everyone. Take care of one bounty and get 1 million. But it didn't bother you as long as you get your bounty 10million. So you just turn blind eye to all this chaos. You get into a bar because they are the best place to find information.
Inside you see that bartender was scanning every one for checking their profile to check if they had a bounty on their head. When he checked you the scanner gave a false positive. As soon as it showed you have a bounty on your head almost all people took out their guns. But the bartender stopped them saying no killing inside the bar. You showed them that you are yourself a bounty hunter.
The situation became calm as soon as you tell them this. The bartender apologizes for this mistake when place down his scanner. The scanner scans the bartender and shows that he has a bounty on his head. A person shoots the bartender as soon as it shows he has a bounty on his head. Bartender's head explodes right in front of you with blood splatter all over you.
You sit down and point scanner on the man who shot the bartender. There is a bounty of 5 million on him. Almost everyone shot the man enormous firepower the man disappear and only blood and pieces of the man stay in his place. Due to this, no one gets the bounty. You sit down and the situation gets calm again. Next to you was sitting a hooded man you see his face in the reflection.

You tell the hooded man to meet you outside. Your friend tells you everything. You look up to see an object with no shape. It is not possible for your brain to process this image. THE END IS NEAR. The object disappears into thin air. It was a familiar feeling yet it was nothing like you ever seen in your lifetime. Your friend asks you for your help to fix this chaos. You agree without a doubt.
In the news, they disclose that more than 12,695 are killed and more than 20,000 are injured. The source of bounty was no found yet. It was about time you reached the AREA{XXXX-XXXX-XXXX}. It was untouched by the bounty hunters. This place should have been destroyed because most government officials work here. So what your friend told you was true.
You enter the facility and see Meng T'ang talking to someone. He tells you that the syndicate is behind this coup d'état and bounty on a government official and if they are not stopped that by end of planet lockdown whole planet will be under their control. You start to exterminate every member of the syndicate. The syndicate was not prepared for this. Most of them were wiped out by you very easily. Only the three heads of the syndicate were left.
You open the door to the last room in the building. The room of the heads. You enter the room and shoot everything that moves. However, there was only one main head. The head falls down from his chair and dies from the bullet wound. You check the console and cancel all the bounties and orders for the remaining members of the syndicate. An emotion of happiness starts in your heart. That after all your effort you save the whole planet and destroyed the whole syndicate
But your happiness was short. In an instant, you lose control of your body and fall into the depth of your mind. You see your self in the third person. You shoot your friend and Meng T'ang. After that, you shoot Meng T'ang in the head. But as you turn to your friend he manages to shoot you in the head and dies. An unknown explosion occurs and throws your body away from the room. You see your body getting burned by the flame
Yet where you are now you see yourself and are unaffected by what you saw because now you are at peace all the human emotions are lost. You are no longer who you were. You see around yourself and see nothing. But darkness leading to empty void you close your eyes and remind your self that this is not the end.
