Saragui Kaio, who is 17, lives in a small town outside of Tokyo called

Yokohama. This teen aged boy's life is about to change dramatically. His mother

died when she was giving birth to Saragui, miraculously, Saragui survived. He

now lives with his father, who is now a drunkard. Ever since his mother died, it

seemed that his father, whose name is Shikogu Kaio, has always blamed the

death of his wife on saragui. Saragui's hose is on the outskirts of Yokohama. Its

a beautiful grassland full of life and energy. The year is 2176, a year of

mechanics that run everything. At this very moment a war is taking place

between the Federation of Unity and the Tokyo Armed Forces ( TAF ). This

very war started about 18 years ago and hasn't even showed and inkling of

stopping anytime soon. No one knows why this war has started in the first place.

Saragui's best friend is an cute and idealistic young girl named Sasaku, sasaku is

one year younger then saragui, but she has the same classes as he does in high

school. The high school which they go to is run by the Federation, who won't

relinquish the power of the surrounding area of Tokyo. Now let's begin, shall

we?

Saragui wakes up slowly and painfully out of bed. " oh my back, I can't believe i

actually work THAT hard at school yesterday, I HATE school!" "SARAGUI,

get down here right now!". yells the hangoverd father. Saragui has two choices,

number one being...take his bag and stealthily climb out the window on his left

and down the rusted gutter and grab his skate board and head off to school. Or

number two, which is go down stairs and put up with his father and either get

bent or yelled at. "..." , pauses saragui. Down he goes out the window, not

wanting to listen to his father's bitching anymore. He grabs his skateboard and

heads to school.

" Get out here right now!", yells Shikogu right outside saragui's room. Shikogu

then kicks the door open. leaving a hole in the door where he just kicked. "

Where the hell are you?" questions that father. He suddenly clasped his chest

and falls on the floor n the middle of saragui's room holding a bottle of Sakai. H

suddenly vomits profusely on the floor where he lays. " where are y...", his

voice fades away and he lays face fist in the large pile of vomit on the floor.

"Sasaku?""here", replied the student."Yoki?", " here ", replied yet another

student." Saragui?", there was no reply. " Saragui are you here?", asked the

teacher. There was no reply yet again." Saragui! There is no sleeping in the

classroom", saragui slowly lifts his head from the desk; " What?", asked saragui

sarcastically. " Do you want me to call your father again?", yelled the enraged

teacher. Saragui's eyes widened, " no, i don't; and you wouldn't dare to do it

again". Before the teacher could reply the alarm rang out through the school. A

voice comes over the intercom, " We have a major problem, everyone stay calm

and resort to code 42, the TAF are attacking!". Before the teacher could

organize everyone to go to the bomb shelter in the basement, the whole school

was in disarray. At this time, everyone was scrambling downstairs. Saragui

couldn't help to stop and think, " Why would they attack a high school?". He

bolted out the door and began to run downstairs to catch up with sasaku. When

he met with sasaku they were on the first floor."oh shit, sasaku i forgot

something. It's very dear to me and I can't bare to lose it!". " no saragui, you

can't go back now. We have to get to safety". Saragui was already off up the

stairs, saragui didn't hear a word sasaku said on of account of all the sirens

blaring around him.

The classroom door now slams open. "where's my board?", asked saragui to

himself. Gun shots are now heard off in a distant classroom, followed by a

scream and a screech. " found it!", said saragui as he picked up his skateboard

from behind the teacher's desk. He then bolted down the stairs to the bomb

shelter.

"OK, now I'm going to take attendance", said the teacher as one of the students

turned on the light. She then got through all the names but one, saragui's. "

Where is saragui", said the teacher as she began to panic, which then started to

upset a few of the other students. " Saragui went back to the class room to get

something, i tried to stop him but i don't think he heard me.", said sasaku. The

enormous door then closes and sasaku begins to cry. " we need to get him!",

yells sasaku through her tears. " It's too late, he's a goner.", replied a student in

the corner. " I'm sorry sasaku, we can't risk being caught", said the teacher as

she tried to console sasaku. Sasaku then headed into a corner to cry her feelings

away.

Down the stairs saragui went. Through the hall , then he took a left. " UMPH ",

said a TAF soldier wearing full armor and wielding a semi-auto plasma rifle

series 2015. " Huh, who are you?", asked the soldier in puzzlement. Before the

question was finished, saragui was already 50 feet ahead of him, in a full sprint.

Still exhausted from the run upstairs to get his board, he took the long way

around to the shelter. As he turned another corner, saragui got a glimpse of

another soldier. The soldier saw him and began running towards his direction.

Saragui quickly ran into a nearby classroom and hid in the closet. He pushed

books and other materials away so he could sit. Still gasping for air, " who are

they, and what do they want?". Saragui suddenly became fully alert. The door

slowly opened, " I'll check in here", said a voice of a TAF officer. Saragui

closed his eyes and though of his mother. He never knew his mother and the

only thing he had was a picture of her in his wallet. He then opened his eyes and

he looked through a hole in the closet door. The TAF officer bagan to leave the

room. "...", paused saragui. A book that was slightly off balance fell and made a

thud near where saragui sat. " oh, shit!", wispered saragui. " Freeze, don't

move", rasped the TAF officer as he stepped back into the room.

" Sasaku, we want to help, but we can't", said the teacher calmly. " You won't

even help your own classmates...you...you...you bastards!", swore sasaku. "

There is no reason the say this stuff, we are safe", said the irate teacher. " We

are, but saragui isn't and id everyone believes the teacher, you can all go to

hell!", screamed sasaku.

" Step out slowly, and i won't have to resorted to shooting you.", said the TAF

officer who was cool and calm. He lifted his gun and aimed it at the closet. " Get

out of there now or I'll have to use what's in my power to forcefully remove you,

it's your choice, saragui". Saragui's eyes became the size of baseballs." How the

hell did he know my name?". Saragui rose and opened the door. " Get on the

ground now", commanded the officer. " I'm unarmed, and how do you know

my name?". Saragui then was forcefully thrown to the ground. " Don't speak",

said the TAF officer. Saragui was then handcuffed and being led out the door. "

My board!", said saragui realizing that he left it in the closet. " What?", asked the

officer who was beginning to get impatient. " My skateboard is in the closet, it's

important to me, i really need it", begged saragui. "Sit down and shut up",

saragui was then placed in a chair as the soldier went to the closet. The officer

went to the closet and opened it, he searched for the skateboard and found it

after a minute of scrutinizing the closet. " This is it right?", asked the officer

politely. Saragui nodded, and a huge smile came on the officer's face. The

soldier then tossed the board into the air and shot it several times with his gun,

shattering it into millions of tiny splinters of wood. " You son of a bitch, when i

get out of these you're a ...". The officer ended the conversation with a punch to

saragui's face. The officer then dragged saragui from the room.
