Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Night Sky

The air was cold yet gentle, and even a bit misty as it's midnight. Max was walking through the empty streets of Moonsoon city as he couldn't sleep for another night.

Max: "Why can't I sleep? Not even the medicine is working... I might have to order stronger ones soon..."

After a bit of walking, Max comes across a 24/7 opened convenience store. Feeling very hungry for soda he went in and picked one. Before he could pay for it, he hears a rough yet chilling voice next to him, "Aren't you still young to buy your drinks?"

Turning to the voice, he sees a tall person with crimson eyes and silver-white hair. Due to the hood it makes her look scary, yet Max isn't scared, instead he ignores the voice and pays for the drink and walks out.

After another bit of walking he turns to the person who was still walking next to him, "Who are you?" The person stops and pulls down the hood.

The person was actually a pale yet very beautiful woman and with the wind blowing her hair makes her twice as pretty. The woman than speaks up while having a silly cat expression, "You can call me Nadezhda Vinogradova. Or just Nadezhda."

Max: "...Max.."

Nadezhda: "How about I show you around the city since you're bored like you're studying for math?"

Max: "...Sure."

Nadezhda shows Max around the unknown places of Moonsoon city that he didn't know existed. A shop full of 80s arcade games, a spot where said extinct animals are kept and feed, and so much more. Of course, Max still had one thing on his mind. "Who is this Nadezhda and how did she appear next to me?"

After a ton of exploration, Max finally speaks up and looks at Nadezhda with a bit of expression from his tired and stiff face, "What are you?" Nadezhda hears the questions and answers as the wind grows stronger. "Oddity."

The wind was so strong that Max had to cover his eyes, after the wind stop, Nadezhda disappears leaving Max to look around in shock and a bit of internet. "How did she... I'll deal with tomorrow after university..."
