CHAPTER I : Encounter with a thief


A young woman with long black silky hair stands in - front of the sunset while six people behind her stood aswell, watching the sun finally end the day and bring forth the night. The young woman, equipped with a rather large katana behind her, sits down on the grass as she takes out a red diary. She takes a pen from her pocket and begins to write on a new page. It seemed that the young woman had written alot, and was finally time to conclude her journey near the last page of the diary..


She looks up at the sky as the darkness of the night was covered with bright glimmering stars. She smiled and began to write once more. The six other people behind her stood silent, knowing that their journey will end soon enough..

Aidos : The Machine City

A couple of months back..

The young woman with long silky black hair walked the streets of the mechanical city, Aidos. It was a rather large city, filled with really high sky scrapers and floating cyphers, robots that work for the Aidos Police Department or better known as the A.P.D. The cyphers are like robotic eyes for the A.P.D. They watch every move of the people and once a cypher catches a culprit, it shoots a tranquilizing dart straight through the body, causing the cuplrit complete palaryzation for 4 hours, enough time for the A.P.D to arrest the cuplrit.


"Those cyphers are a waste of technology." the young woman with long silky black hair murmured to herself as she sat on a bench sipping some hot cocoa, "The A.P.D should take care of cuplrits themselves, yet they expect those cyphers and people like me to arrest people."


A sly and sneaky cypher was watching the young woman. It seemed to focus on her rather than the other people. The cypher quickly analyzed the young woman, "Name : Ayana Misaki, Age : 17, Job : A.P.D Officer.". The cypher focused it's camera more on Ayana. The cypher soon floated away from the surrounding area, away from Ayana.


"That cypher..why did it focus on me?" Ayana thought to herself, "Whatever.."


Ayana soon received an urgent call through a device attached in her ear, "Officer Misaki, are you there?" a grunt voice asked through the small speaker, "We have encountered a lunatic around Sector A. We need you down there, now!"


Ayana shook her head, "Fine." she rolled her eyes as she walked towards Sector A. The cypher that was focusing on her came back to the spot, slowly watching Ayana walk away..

Aidos : Sector A

As Ayana arrived, the streets were empty. She looked towards the building on her left to find several windows broken. As she looked forward, she saw a young man wearing black leather jeans, a white shirt and a long black overcoat that almost touches the ground. His blue hair floating under the cool breeze that passed by. It seemed he was carrying some sort of blueprint in his hand.


"Freeze. A.P.D officer. Drop your weapon and hand over whatever you stole!" Ayana drew her katana from the sheath attached to her back and gripped the handle firmly, "I mean it." she glared the young man straight in the eyes.


The young man snickered as he dropped the blueprints on the floor. He chuckled slightly to himself as he quickly drew two Desert Eagle magnums from his side pockets and quickly pulled the trigger on Ayana. Ayana's agile moves enabled her to dodge the bullets. The young man seemed quite impressed, "Well well. No one has dodged a shot from these babies. You're very good for an A.P.D officer." he grinned as he withdrew his guns and placed them back in his side pockets.


"You're not too shabby yourself," Ayana snickered as she firmly held her katana, "Hand over the blue prints cuplrit! You're under arrest for thievery." Ayana's snicker turned into an angry pout.


The young man in front of her picked the blue prints up from the ground and placed them inside his coat pocket, "Do you even know what these blue prints are? These blue prints might even save your pathetic city from harm. But you A.P.D officers get in my way and try to stop me. What a nuisance.."


Ayana gritted her teeth, "Nuisance? Look who's talking. To get back to your question, what're those blueprints!?" Ayana yelled with an angry tone.


The young man shook his head, "Tsk, tsk. Young lady, it is none of your concern. If you try to stop me, you'll be endangering the life of many more people. Take my word for it." he looked at his wrist watch, "Wow..look at the time. It flew by just like that. I must be on my way. See you later.." the young man snapped his fingers as a flash bomb exploded around him. As the smoke cleared, the young man had disappeared..


"Damn it! I should've finished him. Those damn cyphers didn't do shit! Grah, A.P.D head master Cid won't like this.." Ayana withdrew her katana back into it's sheath as she flipped her air, wiping some sweat off her forehead, "This'll go down on my paycheck.." she sighed and headed for A.P.D HQ.
