I have a lot going on in the next two weeks so there is going to be quite the delay in the story. Edit... Despite my busyness I got a small chapter done ahead of schedule....
Chapter four.... Special event...... “Here you are sir, please enjoy” The bartender handed Butch a bottle of Vodka, before walking off to serve the other customers. “Don’t work Ardent, I have a certain expertise for staying sober” Butch attempted to assure Ardent. Ardent kept quiet and watched Butch start to drink well into his next bottle of Vodka. Suddenly a large explosion shook the room violently and the lights flickered briefly before coming back on like nothing had happened. “What hell was that?” Ardent wondered. “Let’s hope it was nothing important” Butch chimed in. The all too familiar sound of gunfire could suddenly be heard on the second level of Pulse, where the Vip area was located. The screams of helpless victims could be heard all around level two before being silenced by gunshots. Several armed men in black amour covering them from head to toe suddenly walked into view and inspected everyone from the balcony that overlooked level one. “Good evening ladies Good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome to today’s grand event, random acts of violence” The presumed leader of the group announced before revealing his Suppressor and firing it up into the air to make a point. "Now then le...." The leader was cut short by Redstarocket. “This is Redstarocket the Hub is under attack, all civilians inside the Hub report to the nearest evacuation centre and remain calm” Reds panicky voice blared all over the Hub and beyond, though the city wide loud speaker. “Our surprise attack is blown, open fire” The leader said quietly as he and all his troops started firing. Bnus awoke, his vision was blurred; he could hear screams, gunfire. He looked around he could see, rubble and fires all around the atrium. The last thing he remembered was being blown back by a missile while protecting the… “Ambassador?” Bnus called out, as he remembered what he was doing last. Bnus partially regained his vision as he looked around, and there lay the ambassadors body to his left, behind a small overturned desk. Bnus and crept over to the body and felt his pulse, he felt nothing. The ambassador was unfortunately dead. Bnus heard the gunfire getting closer, he looked over the desk. He saw protector bots fighting a losing battle against men in black amour wielding suppressors. Bnus felt something touch his shoulder as he watched the battle. …. Bnus body dropped onto the ground…..
