Everything was dark, not a single thing was there at all. Then, there was a light that started out small and then grew to an enormous size, nearly blinding her in the process. She looked over to her right and saw her best friend Maxwell at her side.
"Allee, I need to tell you some-" he was cut off by a rumbling sound that shook the entire plain white room they were in. Allee looked down at the white flooring and without warning, the floor broke into splintering pieces, sending her through the floor into the darkness below.
She threw herself awake from the feeling of falling eternally. She was back at her home, in her own room, in her own hammock. She felt stiff as an iron rod but managed to sit up. As if on cue her friend Stephano had opened the door.
"Allee, you're awake! About time!" Stephano exclaimed, the light that shone in from behind was like a whole new sun in her dark room. He stepped forward towards her and his blinding smile turned to a worried expression.
"Where's Maxwell...?" Allee asked, worried about her best friend's well-being. Stephano stared horrified and bit his lip, he didn't answer for a while and then he began,"Allee, don't you remember? Maxwell taken into custody, for dealing with the mafia?" Allee stared at him for a long time, her eyes widening. She knew he was always one for the wild side when she first met him, but to this extent was a whole new thing for her.
"I had no idea. I mean, I knew he was a troublemaker but," her voice trailed off and she stared down at her toes.
"It's ok Allee, you weren't there to see it," Stephano exclaimed, throwing his hands out in front of him. Her head drooped even lower, and her sadness squashed her like a shoe would a bug. How was she going to bail him out this time with the new unfair government?
"So he's in prison right now?" she asked.
He nodded his head slowly and then folded his arms and turned his head away.
"Who's the one who took him?" Allee asked, her voice turning angry. Stephano turned back towards Allee and stared at her with an intense look on his face.
"If you're thinking about convincing Emperor Douche-Face, you can think again," Stephano said through his teeth. Allee gritted her own teeth, had she known it was HIM who had locked Maxwell up she wouldn't have been s quick in trying to save him. The Emperor was one of the 4 other leaders over their tattered world. He ruled their homeland and the other 3 were scattered elsewhere, having their own promised land to rule. She stared her friend straight in the eyes,"I know it seems stupid, but we have to get him back. However, if it leads to it we'll fight for him," Stephano hesitated and then nodded his head accepting her decision,"Alright Allee, to the weaponry then."
Stephano opened the door to the weaponry, which looked like a plain empty room until you flicked on the light and the walls would completly rotate and reveal from a mini gun to bo staffs made of solid bamboo. Allee paced quickly to the right wall, where two sub-machine guns awaited her. She tucked them both into her belt, which were tied around her stomach over her fleecy white shirt and gray leggings. She then grabbed two golden daggers that were in their cases and tossed one at a time towards Stephano. She then took a switchblade from the table in the back and tucked it in the band of her actual leggings. They were prepared and ready to go. Stephano grabbed himself a hand gun and extra ammo before he flicked the light switch off, leaving the room behind.
Allee fumbled with the house key trying to lock it up. She cursed under her breath and then out of frustration she finally got it. She slid the key under the mat and headed towards the car. Stephano flicked his wrist, turning on the ignition and started the car. Allee opened the passenger side door and threw herself in. Stephano didn't waste any time and almost started to go even before she got her door closed and her seat belt on. They sped down the lengthy driveway and then turned sharply to the left, toward the abandoned train station. Well, it wasn't completely abandoned, there were a few people who would be willing to give them a ride to the next train station in the capital. Nobody seemed to care really if the train ran or not. After a half hour of driving they made it, Stephano parked the car and got out quickly and nearly slammed the door behind him.
As if on cue, three men came out, they looked taller than Stephano, and even more built than him. Stephano grabbed Allee's shoulder and pulled her behind him as the three burly guys walked up to face Stephano face to face. The one in the middle lifted his chin in acknowledgement. Stephano nodded back and grabbed Allee's arm and half dragged her inside, the trio following right behind them.
"So what was that about?" Allee whispered to Stephano as they approached the station.
"Sizing me up, probably checking to see if I was with the emperor, how am I supposed to know?" Stephano replied flatly. Allee shook her head and walked in through the door as Stephano held it open. The inside looked like any public building nowadays; run-down, broken, and overall just sad. Allee looked around for a bit, the atmosphere smelled heavy of cigarette smoke, and the benches were either broken or were already occupied by people. Allee frowned despite trying to remain polite, these people didn't look anything like they did before. They looked just like the train station's condition broken, run-down, and overall just sad. Allee bit her lip and sat down at the opposite side of a bench, where a child and her mother were sitting. Stephano was up at the ticket booth buying tickets.
"Missy? Missy, why do you have guns?" The tiny voice from the child asked. Allee's face flushed of all color as she felt everyone's eyes turn on her. For they had not paid much attention on the newcomers at all. She turned her head towards the little girl, trying to ignore the prying eyes on her.
"Well, m-my friend has been taken by the emperor Dou-" she quickly cut off her and Stephano's crude nickname,"Y'know-the emperor, you see he took my friend and locked him away, and well I miss him." She blinked as if not understanding but then on her small face grew a sad smile.
"I hope you can get your friend back Missy," she said, and then let go and leaned back towards her mother, who tucked her daughter under her arm and stared compassionately and yet sternly at Allee. Allee felt a smile spread across her face as she turned her head down towards her hands. Stephano sat down to join her as they waited for the next train ride. It was about a half hour before the one running train came around.
