Prologue
It's a cold winter night in Odaiba; an eerie silence hangs over the chaotic city. Usually there's some sort of dilemma on the streets; a car crash here or a robery there, but not tonight. No, tonight is a time for mourning.
A young auburn-haired girl rests on the roof of an apartment complex. She sits at the edge, her legs dangling in mid-air while her hands clutch the building to keep from falling as she peers below. The wind howls and tosses her hair; red locks dance across her face and drape over her crimson eyes as she scans the city beneath her.
How long has she been sitting there? Who knows.
A tear escapes her eye and rolls down her cheek, stopping at the corner of her mouth. Salty. She wipes it away with the sleeve of her sweater.
Her heart aches.
She takes out a cigarette from her left pocket and a lighter from her right. She lights the cancerous stick and takes a puff; inhaling deeply, taking pleasure in the intoxicating drug. She tilts her head up and as if howling to the moon, she releases the smoke into the sky.
How could she let this happen? It's all her fault.
Suddenly, a loud musical parody resonates through out the rooftop and flows into the apartments below; her cell phone is ringing. The red-head takes her mobile which had been resting beside her and reads the screen: Tai. Her lips curve into a bitter smirk.
Why is she here? Because karma's a bitch...
