Prologue

"Ian… Ian wake up" Said a familiar voice. "Rise and shine, the world can't protect itself."

I wake up in my three room apartment in the great Mode City. Sitting up in my bed I look around for who was talking to me. No one was in that apartment but me and Dan. Dan was my two year old Garfield look alike cat that was given to me as a present after Sammy died. I try my best to love the cat but I could only remember that the cats here to replace Sammy. I stumble out of bed and rub my face. Ian Cole is the name I go by, but many people I know like to call me asshole.

"Where the fuck is my phone?" I said throwing my bed sheets around. "Could never find it."

Dan was looking at me from his little bed next to dining table. I could hear a faint buzzing sound in his direction. The phone must be under him. Opening some kitty food should get him moving. In the kitchen I grabbed a can of cat food. He hopped onto the counter that separated my sleeping space from the kitchen. The phone was vibrating, I must have left that way so I could get some sleep. Being a cop, your job is never done. The phone stopped vibrating, I picked it up and checked the missed calls. Nine of them I missed, and all from my partner. The phone rang again.

"About fucking time, why weren't you answering your calls?" said a very upset Nicole. "This is getting ridiculous, I know you have issues but don't ever keep a girl waiting."

"I don't remember making plans with you." I said while grabbing a can of spaghetti.

"Were cops Ian, the plans are made by the dumbasses that think they could get away from it, and we have a major problem right now at Terra Zoo."

Terra Zoo? Now I know that this is important. No time to heat this up, going to have to wolf it down and get moving. I put on my blue/grey jeans and old steel tow boats. Give a kiss on the head to Dan and grab my trench coat on my way out the door.

"You gonna pick me up?" I ask with a mouthful of Spaghetti.

"I've been waiting down here since 7, its 9:30 right now, we need to go. Commissioner Ava is waiting for us."
