Ficool

Chapter 82 - City of Anarchy

Nixxin stood in a shed inside a school campus. As far as I know, Wia is grade 12. She should be out for school by now; he waits... People are starting to notice him, people taking pictures with him, asking him to stretch his wings or fly them to their home, but he is still waiting for her to come, but he doesn't see her.

A bell rings, and kids come out of their rooms to go to school. He sees Vin walking with his friends. Vin sees him and hurries up to approach him. "Feauv! Feauv, will you fly me home?"

Nixxin laughs and says, "Sure, but are you sure? Because you have friends, and I can't fly them."

Vin looks back at his friends. "I think it's fine, btw... Have you seen Drei?"

Nixxin's smile fades as he hears it. "Drei went to school?"

Vin nods. "You didn't know?"

Nixxin looks at him; he still has an opportunity to go to school after those things. Does that mean Lando or Brondu provide everything he needs? Why? "Vin, I think you should go with your friends."

Vin looks back and goes back to his friend. What's wrong with him? Nixxin sees Drei with the other staff at the cafe; he looks at them walking to go outside. They're going to go back to work after school.

Nixxin explored the school while thinking of what to do, and then he saw William in the garden. "You're still planting even here?"

William looks at him. "Well, I'm the club president of botany and vice in the agriculture club."

Nixxin smiled. "Wow, you're great... So, are you with someone?"

William stares at him for a second; he looked back at the seed he was holding. Why is he talking to me? "Well, I do." William didn't put the seed in the soil; he just dropped it on the table near him and left it.

Nixxin scratches his head. "Alright, I guess I'll leave first... Bye." William looks at Nixxin walking while his wings are slowly getting wider and wider. Nixxin flies high in the sky, wondering what to do.

Nixxin look down on the ground, I have to make some action to get these boredom out of me, Nixxin ascends in the sky, cutting through clouds, in just over a minute he already reach the karman floor, Nixxin cannot find an entrance anywhere, he search everywhere until he got exhausted, after he sees that there's no cloud below, he let himself fall in the ground.

Nixxin woke up in a dark alley; everyone is looking at him, people with lamps, thinking he is an angel. He covered his eyes before opening them; he is surrounded by people. They're talking about him, and one approaches him, an old man with a sword. The old man bows in front of him. "Please, save our city."

Nixxin is shocked; he doesn't know what to do. "What are you talking about?"

The old man raises his head. "You're an angel sent by God."

Nixxin stands up slowly. "I indeed look like an angel, but I'm just a human like y'all."

Everyone starts looking at each other; it looks like Nixxin isn't the only one confused. "Old man, tell me... Where am I?"

The old man stands up. "You're inside the walled city, the city of Kowloon."

Nixxin looks around the street. Damn... I forget about this city, the most densely populated city in the whole galaxy, the city of Kowloon, it come from the first city of Kowloon from Earth, and this is a bigger replica of it. How do I leave this place?

Nixxin looks at the people around. "What do you guys want?"

A kid walks toward him. "I wanted to leave this floor and go up."

Nixxin looks at the kid; the place is so dense. The people that are looking at him are inside their own homes because they can't fit in the walking area. "I'm sorry, but I can't operate inside this city; I have to call someone before I do it."

The old man taps his shoulder. "Once you go inside this city, you can't get out."

Nixxin thinks for a second about how things just became like this. Oh man... I shouldn't wish for an action; it actually gives it to me. Nixxin put his hand in his pocket and picked up a key.

Nixxin opened a gate; he went inside. No one was waiting for him except for Via. "Via, where is Ardent?"

Via stood up. "Ardent is busy; he is currently trading with our neighboring kingdom."

Nixxin looked around. "Do you guys have many soldiers here?"

Via looked at the clock. "I'm sorry, but the soldiers can't go outside right now; they're busy with their own families, and the others have missions themselves."

Nixxin was disappointed; he also didn't want Via to get hurt. "Just tell Ardent that I arrived here."

Nixxin quickly went out without letting Via speak. How do I cut my wings? This is a problem in narrow places, "How do I save all of you?"

The old man pushes Nixxin inside a room, and a man only has one eye is sitting in the room, "What do you want?"

Nixxin sat in the chair, compare to other room, this place is thicker than expected, "They said they need my help to get out, how do I help?"

The man throws his cigarette aways, "By the way, I am SZ, I keep this place safe, which means this is my territory and those people outside are my hopeless people... Luckily they feed me to keep them safe, once I dies, they're all dead."

Nixxin sees the board behind, it has words he doesn't understand, "Just tell me what to do help you."

SZ stand up and pick a water bottle, he drinks and put it in the table, "Well, I won't help you, because I can't leave these people, maybe you'll only do everything yourself."

Nixxin is shock by what he just heard, "How am I going to do that?! Not only that, why should I help these people?"

SZ pull his couch and turn his board, "Well, you can't actually leave this place, the best you can do is to help them while you're trying to gets out."

Nixxin looks at the board, he feels like a student again listening to a teacher, "Is this right to welcome someone, you're going to send him at some saving mission? You guys don't even know who I am."

SZ looks at him, "I'm sorry but, resources is actually a big problem, that's why we can't do it, well... You can rest here, you know? This room is the best room at this floor. And also, you're name is Feauv, they saw it in your card."

The old man entered the room, Nixxin looks at the old man, "How did you guys find me?"

The old man sat down in the couch, "How do I find you? You fall in the sky, near the park, that's where we sees you, and luckily, at that time no one is on guard. You looks like an angel fall from the heaven to this living hell."

Nixxin looks at the time, "You see, I have to eat, because my wings can drain so much energy."

SZ put a bowl and three can in the table infront of Nixxin, "What is this?"

SZ light a cigarette, the cigarettes alone was brighter than the bulb above, "That is green bean, how come you don't know it?"

Nixxin stared it, "How do I eat this?"

SZ pick up the cans and he opens all of it and he pour it in the bowl, "Put it in your mouth."

Nixxin actually did, it taste mild, he hates it, but he was too hungry, is this spoon even clean? What the hell is going on? They should at least give me some time to think; they're acting like I have to hurry.

The old man look outside the window, "Tomorrow, SZ will teach you about everything inside this city. For now, you can rest, you might be injured because of your fall." Nixxin glance at the old man, they shouldn't have create a city like the city of Kowloon, knowing the effects of it, but they still did, and these people even try to live inside it.
