Chapter 1
Aoi walked into the flat, "You're going to be late Akira."
Akira looked up and saw the blue-haired monstrosity standing beside his sofa. Aoi sighed as Akira ignored her and went back to controlling his avatar in his computer game.
Aoi gave a bigger sigh and dragged Akira outside. His greyish hair looked windswept as he was brought to the Blster's residence. Blster was an illegal rogue game where teens fight each other, for no reason.
Aoi sighed again as she thought how on Earth Akira got himself into this.
'I'm sighing a lot lately,' she thought and sighed yet again. There was loud cheering and whooping when they got nearer. A battle had just ended. The winner had his hand up in the air and was laughing at his bloody beaten down competitor. Aoi stared in disgust at what she saw before her.
"Can't you quit!" she whined at Akira. He just made a non-committal grunt. When the crowd saw Akira entering, they gave a loud cheer and started chanting, "LOST, LOST, LOST…"
Aoi looked on helplessly as Akira walked into the square and took up a fighting stance. His opponent approached, he looked in his mid-twenties with a handsome face only marred by his nose which looked as if it had been broken several times. The umpire raised his arm to indicate the match had begun.
They both swung into action. Akira pulled his arm back, looked straight into his opponent's eyes and brought his fist crashing into his competitor's fine face. His adversary dodged the blow and lashed right back at Akira. Akira only just had the time to evade the punch before it connected. It continued on like this, in a intricate sequence of ducking and diving each others strikes. Finally, Akira managed to get a strike on the other man, momentarily breaking his line of thought, allowing Akira to finish him off with a sucker punch to the head.
Dazed, his opponent fell to the ground. A loud cheer erupted around the stadium. Akira had a blank face not indicating that he had just won the match. He walked away ignoring all the applause. Aoi had to run to catch up with him. "Wait!" Aoi shouted at him, panting hard. Akira turned around to face her and said in a monotone voice, "I am going home."
"I thought I would go and buy some dinner. What do you want me to get?" Aoi asked. "The usual" Akira replied as they parted ways.
Akira's POV
Akira walked with his hands in his pockets, wondering about how he ever got a friend like Aoi. She was loyal and kind-hearted. Strange thing is that he couldn't remember anything before his tenth birthday, all the memories were foggy.
He took out his keys to open his flat when there was a piercing scream that sent chills down his body. He dropped his keys and ran towards where the scream had come from. When he reached an alleyway not far from his flat, he smelt the familiar stench of blood. As his eyes adjusted to the dark he saw a figure lying on the ground, mutilated. It was obvious she was no longer breathing. He covered his mouth with his hand to stop him from retching. He took a step back; he had never actually seen a dead body before. It was horrifying. He suddenly heard several pairs of footsteps behind him. He was frozen, too scared to turn around. This was not good.
