The city of Townsville, a bustling metro area where it's protected by three super human girls and a newly created armor police force. Of course he was a part of this town, this slightly small man with the black hair and the square, wire rim glasses sitting on the subway train waiting for his stop.
He has done this for the last few years, riding to a tall building near city hall and checking into the institute. There were times while doing his job he would accidentally sync up with one of the Powerpuff girl's thoughts and often jokingly narrate the moments; it was kind of a joke since it was his last name and it's kind of a habit for him to talk through the entire process of mind linking.
You see his name is Ruiji Narrator and he is a member of the Townsville Psychic Detective Agency, a place created in secret to track many very dangerous or disturbed people; more dangerous than villains.
Mr. Narrator got off the train and walk down the street into the large building with the seal of Townsville on it; even though this place wasn't fully authorized by the mayor or deputy mayor. At the elevators he shifted through his pockets and pulled out a small and slender strip of metal with a few punched holes in one end, this open the black doors and he stepped in than repeated everything to get to a long, narrow hall that ended with another elevators.
The doors closed and finally he made it to a large area with lots of equipment, people and dim lighting all over the place. Wires and metal panels covered every inch of the wall where there wasn't a monitor, but he payed no attention to them as he headed for a special monitor that is very large and filled with names; this was the tasks board and he was looking for his name what he was going to do today.
I got Psych Sync Linking, thought as he saw his name. What this meant he went to the brain chamber, where a huge chair with tons of large metal disk that look like high tech bowls connected to large mechanical arms.
Mr. Narrator took off his blazer and glasses than hand it over to an operator as he took his seat, everything began to darken as the machine lowered the domes over his head and off to his sides. Within moments it was a light show that would rival any Pink Floyd show, these chaotic shapes and lights form into a form.
At the controls the operator looked at the monitor with a large red circle with a pulse line going through it, in the corner there was a number with the letters SP (Sync Points). This is what the operator is keeping an eye on, if it falls below a certain mark - SP 9.1 - than the psychic will suffer a brain over load and die.
Mr. Narrator felt a slight headache, this happens at SP 80.5. But it was well worth it as he saw something going down, a vision of a small and bare room that was drab grey. He saw a man in darkness, and a blurred object. With a swipe the vision was cut off, Ruiji tapped a button near his finger tips and lifted up the domes.
"I saw that Ruiji," the operator said as he ran his fingers of the liquid keyboard. The dome came back down but this time there wasn't a psychic link (which means no SPs are used), instead there was a map of the city in which a targeting system began to narrow down the location of the mind.
"The morgue?" Ruiji asked as the dome lifted back up, "is that right?"
"Seems so," the operator said.
With a sigh he grabbed his jacket, "tell the boss I'm going to investigate a possible murder."
I to both to note and explain some things; one, it's not set in the maximum (pretty obvious, there's law and order) and two, I like to write about underrated characters; and there is no one more underrated than Mr. Narrator.
This idea started as a joke fic, a break from Maximum to keep from getting writer's block. You see I read this cool Guilty Gear fan comic with this guy called Narrator, I like him so much that I started to play with Mr. Narrator, and while the artist is based on the reporter from the night of the living dead mine is based on this guy that liked his job that looked very out of character with this guy that was cross between Reeve/Tseng and has Hojo's glasses (all from final fantasy 7) with a mild temper.
I guess I like the idea too much, and threw out the facial hair you get Ruiji Narrator.
