The wet floor under my hands with they unpleasant smell of dead rats and spoiled food assaulted me as I woke up, seeing my stuff spew around the room reminds of the days to come so I slowly gather my stuff to leave, before leaving I gather the things on the door and put them in my ragged bag as I leave to the unmanageable overgrown city.
Walking past the broken windows of the store fronts looking for anything to salvage. A shine catches my eye looking at it. It's a little odd being in the back of a musty dark room so I ready the rusty knife from its holder on my thigh. Crouching and moving slowly I go through the door to the building going to the room getting closer to the door. I know something is wrong after hearing the slow and low breathing of something lurking above the door out of sight. Looking around and grabbing some of the rubble off the ground, throwing the stones quickly through the door. Watching a tentacle-like monster fall on top of the stones I quickly stab it guting it, jumping back to not being covered in the blueish substance it leaks from its body. Waiting a moment for any signs of life I slowly move over to it and remove its razor sharp teeth and looking over the shiny box seeing its already open I return to the street and continue walking to the scavenger city,
Walking for an hour I see the scavenger city LeMark with guards patrolling the top of the metal walls. Reaching the waiting line to enter the city looking up and seeing my old friend on the inspection duty a wave of relief washes over me knowing there won't be forced bribes to get in without trouble. Walking up to him "hey michael" "hey lucas" he says while going into my bag "teeth? What type hybrid or demon" "there hybrid teeth from a magert" he puts the teeth and other good back into the bag "be careful the church have been having there outing lately" michael warned as I entered the city
Walking through the crowded streets of town, looking for a shop to sell the scrap and parts I got while on my expedition outside. The cling of the rusty bell on the door rings through the shop as I put my bag on the table and an old man comes out. He grumbles and flips my bag upside down laying the stuff on the counter "mhm 10 coin for all the scrap and 5 for the monster teeth" he puts a small rag bag onto the counter, after grabbing it and starting to leave "thank you mr. Brarzo" after shuffling through the crowd and walking down alleyways. I come upon an old run down apartment building, heading in and up the stars grabbing at a set of keys from my bag, the click of the door unlocking rings out along the wall way, quickly looking around the room to make sure everything is in place I head in. going to the back room and removing a floor board I get the safe out and input the code, slowly counting the coins "ha finally I've saved enough". Grabbing and putting it in a hidden zipped up spot on my bag.
My footsteps barely making a noise while running across the streets in the dark. My foot stops as it feels the cold stone of the main road that goes up to the lords castle. Slowly reaching the stores in the first district my eyes dart across them looking for one. Feeling my heart beating out of my chest as my footsteps through the door. "Welcome to the serum shop sponsored by the lord to get peasants out of the slums, my name is hannah" the receptionists says robotically "are you here to buy a guaranteed serum or will you try the random use serum" "i'll be getting the random serum" She slowly reaches out for payment after grabbing the syringe with a blueish liquid in it. "Will you need a room to stay while you inject?" her monton voice ringing in my ears "yes please" following behind her she takes me to a dim room and leaves me alone.
Slowly steeling myself and getting rid of the cap on the needle moving it above my arm, i push it in feeling a sensation like being putting my hand into a fire it radiates along to the rest of my head as i push down the plunger injecting it into my body, looking at the spinning room and loosing the power in my limbs i black out.
Slowly opening my eyes, I notice something very strange everything around me is frozen in time dust particles suspended in the air, looking down and noticing the serum i look it over and notice that its a month past its date, "those fuckers cheaped me out" yelling at the door i suddenly realize theres a large clear but rusty panel in front of me with worlds running dow it
