HIRO
Hiro was angry.
He and nine other people had dedicated two years to Project Earth. And now it was gone.
He pulled his full face gas mask from his bag and quickly wore it when the elevator got to the fifth floor before checking if it fit properly. He slung his bag over his shoulders after the elevator dinged open and left the institute.
He always left the institute at ten PM but now that Project Earth had been scrapped, he had nothing to do there. He got to the bus stop after a couple of minutes and sat on the bench there to wait for the next bus.
All the shops were opened and there were a lot of people on the street. There were more patrollers present now than there was when he had been going to the institute and they were all stopping people to check their identity cards. There were security guards in front of some shops to control the people in queues waiting to enter the decontamination chamber.
