Chapter 1 - Promaxima City

"Promaxima is a relatively calm and serene city."

"Promaxima has a rich, beautiful and captivating history. Promaxima city was established in 1844 by philanthropist Mr. Robert Wriothesley."

"Sir Robert Wriothesley came to Promaxima in 1804 at the time this place used to be a dense forest."

"It's already been six months since I came to this city and I already become the part of this city. I'm studying at Promaxima University and living in a rented flat in the outskirts of the city."

"It's relatively calm out here. From the balcony I can see the beautiful sea and the nearby forest."

"It's so peaceful here. Good weather, clear blue sky and blissful wind. If you get break from your work for few days come to the promaxima city. I'll show you the whole city brother."

Young man sitting in his balcony on wooden chair relax and texting on his phone as morning sun light shines upon his blond hair and his tender soft pinkish white skin make him look cute and handsome face at the same time, his blue eyes are like crystal clear calm beautiful lake. He had only his blue shorts on, he wasn't wearing anything on torso because of that his lean and slender body.

'Sitting on this chair and enjoying the Sunday like this is best no need to worry about anything in life.'

'I wish time could stop right here.'

Suddenly someone pulled the chair backwards in full motion with strength.

"Hey, dude I was looking for you everywhere and here you are wasting Sunday like this sitting on the chair in balcony."

Right above my face is none other than my annoying roommate ginger head Dáithí Tylor, he has fair skin with freckles on his face and in sunlight his red curly hair looks scarlet embers, he's wearing grey leather jacket and black jeans today.

"Hey, sleepyhead Noah, wake up."

"Can't you see my eyes are wide open Dáithí." Noah look the Dáithí he was getting his face to close to him.

"Oh, you are texting your girlfriend and you didn't even tell me you have girlfriend now." Dáithí said as he looks at the text message on Noah phone screen.

"No, I don't have girlfriend or anything like that. I was texting my brother it has been over a half year that I didn't get chance to talk to him" Noah said with bit annoyance in his voice.

"Is that so then why you are hiding hiding your phone screen from me mate." Dáithí said as had wide grin on his face.

"Damn it, Dáithí just give me some privacy and stop smiling like creepy bastard." Noah said to Dáithí as always does this thing ignoring other people privacy.

"Noah just relax there's no need to get angry over little joke and Lucas just called me, he told me to bring you along with me at his place." Dáithí said while trying to hide his foolish smile.

He's definitely up to something,"Nahh, I don't feel good today, maybe next time but not today."

"Noah, nothing bad is going to happen today, look at the bright sunny day outside."

"I will drag you to Lucas home whether you like it or not."

Noah frowned and sighed, "Fine, let me get my t-shirt first."

Noah grabbed his yellow sleeveless t-shirt from his bed and both of them walked out of their rented flat and Noah locked the door, "I'm keeping the key with myself this time because you are damn careless and already last two keys."

"whatever dude stop acting likev damn boomers." Dáithí said with bit irritated voice.

"Let's take the lift today instead of going down by stairs." Dáithí said to Noah as he doesn't want take stairs as they going to take bus today and chances not getting any seats are high on Sunday both took the lift to go on groundfloor.

Noah and Dáithí walked out of their apartment building in front their apartment building is residential homes and two blocks away from them is bus stop both of them walked down on the street and arrived at the bus stop within 5 to 6 minutes, Noah and Dáithí started waiting for trolleybus to arrive.

"For god sake, how much time will this damn bus take?" Dáithí is the type of person who has little no patience at all, talkative, full of energy and ready for anything except for study.

"Tell me, what's really going on Dáithí."

"Man, you will find out once you arrive at Lucas home."

After a few minutes the trolleybus came and both of them took the bus, as they have imagined it was full they didn't get any seat had stood up till their destination. Half hour later they arrived at Trafford park after walking for 15 minutes they arrived at Lucas place. He lives with his parents in a suburban house.

Dáithí knock the door of Lucas home and few seconds later Lucas' house door was opened, standing in front of us is Lucas' mom.

"Ohhh, Noah and Dáithí, nice to see you again. Lucas is upstairs in his room."

Lucas' mom is in her 40s and she has brown hair, dark eyes and wrinkles on her face showing signs of old age but she still has the mature charm to her beauty.

"Thanks, Daisy, we will return before evening." After saying that Dáithí ran towards Lucas' bedroom upstairs.

"I'm sorry ma'am for Dáithí informal way of talking." Noah feels awkward whenever Dáithí calls Lucas mom by her name when Lucas isn't around us.

"It's okay, you are a good kid Noah and you are good friends to my son Lucas."

"It's nice to see happy and smile again and go out again without staying in his room all day and night."

Two footsteps could be heard walking down from stairs Lucas is 6.5 feet tall handsome man, he's voice is manly with brown

hair, dark eyes, white skin and a bit muscular body wearing black jeans, white tshirt.

"I'll be back soon, don't worry about me mom."

"Look after my sweet son."

"Okay, ma'am."

"Mom, don't say such embarrassing things in front of them, I'm grown up now." Lucas closed the main door of his house after saying that.

Lucas took out keys from his jeans pocket, Lucas has brand new waleos motor scooter in black colour.

"Come on, get on it." Lucas said.

Dáithí sits on it first now both of them are looking at me.

"Noah, are you lost in thoughts again, get on the scooter."

"This scooter is made for only two people, if three of us sit on it, we will get caught by traffic police for breaking the law."

"Don't be a pussy Noah, even when Lucas isn't afraid of them why you are being such a pussy right now."

Noah sat on the back, Dáithí in the middle and Lucas is the one driving the motor-scooter as they drive everyone on the street. Look at them, usually everyone follows the law and just two people sit on motorbike or scooter but seeing three of them feels weird to them.

After almost half an hour later they arrived at the old town, Noah looked at the old church that has been part of promaxima history.

"You guys are seriously thinking of spending Sunday in the old town."

Old town is located in the outskirts of the city, it was the first settlement established here, even though few buildings have been changed with time but most of them are still the same and in good condition.

Old town is Promaxima heritage and every year in monsoon lots of tourists come to visit the old church that is known as St. Liam church.

"We could be at the beach instead of here." Noah doesn't like the old town that much; it always makes him uncomfortable whenever he's around here.

"Dude, be quite like you always act. Why are you being noisy like Dáithí today." Lucas starts to get irritated as Noah is shaking the scooter.

"What the hell Lucas, when did I become noisy."

"Stop, shaking the scooter or three of us would fall." Lucas screamed out loud.

Few minutes later Lucas finally stopped his scooter, "We arrived at the place."

Noah looks at the old traditional wooden house that hasn't been maintained for years and right beside the house is a railway track without any barricade in front of the house is the main road and crossing.

 

Lucas, Dáithí and Noah stood at the veranda and look around the place as it seems bit odd for them as freight train at 1st and 3rd track is stopped don't know for which reason and train driver is also missing only 2nd track is active now.

Crossing is full traffic as half the crossing road is closed by freight train, freight train caboose was missing for some reason but it's not their problem.

Knock knock

Lucas knocked on the door and a few seconds later the door was opened and suddenly a strong smell of alcohol and cigarettes hit them.

Cough cough cough

Noah and Lucas start to cough as they couldn't tolerate this foul smell.

"What's your business here?" The man who opened the door asked, he looked at Noah and Lucas.

Dáithí walked in front of him with a smile on his face and asked, "I saw your post on paranormal investigation and you posted this place address for further information related to paranormal activity."

"Huhh"

"That wasn't me, it was my twin brother who was into this weird shit."

"Now, fuck off." Drunk man started to close the door, Dáithí quickly grabbed the door, not letting the drunk man close the door.

"Wait wait wait."

"At Least tell where's your brother, you can give us his contact number."

Man let out a sigh and looked towards the railway crossing.

"He died a year ago at this crossing."

Three of them don't know what to say now as they never thought of this and most shocked was Dáithí.

Dáithí blurted out, "That's not possible, how did this happen."

Drunk man looks at the Dáithí shocked face, disbelief clearly written on his face.

"You knew my brother?" Drunk man asked Dáithí.

Dáithí came out of his shock and nodded his head, "I know we met a couple of times before."

"Drunk man looked sad but might be remembering his brother.

"Come inside."

Drunk man invited them inside his house. It seems for ages no-one has cleaned this house, dust, spider-web, alcohol bottles, cigarette packets, cigarette butt, rag and broken glass is lying around inside the house.

Drunk man sat on his chair and looked at Lucas, Dáithí and Noah.

"Why are you guys still standing? sit on the couch."

Three of them look at the dirty couch in front of them covered in dust and an alcohol bottle lying on it and one spot being wet as alcohol is still leaking from the bottle.

"No, it's fine there's no need for this." Dáithí said as he doesn't like this place at all.

"I insist." Drunk man said with force in his voice.

Noah quickly sat on the couch, the part that was relatively clean compared to one that is wet, only his clothes got dirty. Lucas also sat beside Noah. He grabbed the empty alcohol bottle and placed it on the table in front of him.

Dáithí is the only one left standing, looking at the menace gaze the drunk was giving him, Dáithí didn't dare to offend him more as a shotgun is lying just beside the drunken chair.

Dáithí put an alcohol bottle on the table and sat on the wet spot on the couch, he really regretted coming here at this point now.

Drunken lowered his head and said, "You asked, how did this happen?"

"My brother committed suicide."
