Bnus remerged to meet the ambassadors, who were all busy chatting to one another. “May I have your attention ambassadors?” The moment he said it all the ambassadors stopped talking and looked at Bnus. “Our lead moderator Redstarocket would like me to quicken the tour, please allow me to escort you all to level 43” Bnus said as politely as he could. Suddenly a large explosion rocked the entire room and Bnus was thrown off his feet and onto the floor. He pulled himself up quickly. A large black helicopter suddenly decloaked before his eyes, its twin miniguns instantly started firing inside the atrium. “Run” Bnus shouted as he ran for his life from almost raining minigun fire. He vaulted over a bench and noticed one of the ambassadors had injured his leg, and was limping to the elevator, struggling to move.
Several protector bots stormed out the many elevators in the room and opened fire at the helicopter with missiles of their own. Bnus took the opportunity of the bots attack and ran towards the ambassador, as he did; the helicopter fired a missile into the atrium... Bnus noticed the missile and doubled his pace.” Ambassador…” Bnus yelled as he threw himself onto the ambassador. The missile then hit the floor and Bnus was thrown across the room by the blast. Butch sat in Pulse, a small nightclub on level two of the Hub drinking a bottle of vodka, forgetting his troubles. He looked around; he trusted few people these days and for good reason. He didn’t want to bring those memories up, he wanted to forget them. Ardent Prayer one of his only friends sat next to him drinking a pint of beer.
He trusted Ardent; he was someone he could relate to. “So,Ardent, got any interesting stories you could tell? Butch questioned. “I could use the excitement right now in this dull world” “Okay sure, I will pleasure you” Ardent chuckled as he said it. “I was tracking down this guy in the Guardia system, his name was John, I think it was anyway, this was about a year ago. I tracked him down to the city of Adina, in the sewers he was hiding in. He killed all his goons and cornered him; turns out I forgot to reload my Magnums. He attacked me with a kitchen knife and swung it around like a godamm madman, maybe he was mad, I don’t know. He swung it at me and missed, the idiot hit a steam valve. The valve blew up and steam went into his face. I grabbed the only weapon I saw, a pillow and beat him to death with that” Butch looked at Ardent with a blank expression. “I brought the corpse to my employer and claimed the credits”
Butch then finished off his bottle of Vodka and ordered another one. “Take it easy Butch, you only turned twenty a month ago” Butch gave Ardent a dirty look. “Just looking out for you buddy” Ardent cheerfully said. *Unknown location* “Sir, our helicopters have started attacking the upper levels of the Hub” “Good, all is going to plan; soon we will have our revenge, Begin attack pattern Delta, take them by surprise while we still can”
"Yes sir”
