Ring! Ring! Ring!
Silent: "Test test. Ah! All good. Hello, readers. Welcome to my humble novel of a cosy, lazy and nonchalant guy (Which is me) that involves training techniques, fighting styles, scaling system and many..."
"Huh?!" Covering his whole body in a red-dotted blanket, a young man in his early twenties says in a sleepy voice as he obviously was waking up from a deep, very deep sleep.
Silent: "Such a joykiller! Anyways, y'all will see me from time to time, commenting here and there for only one purpose... comedy!"
Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Ok, Okay! I'm awake!" The young man became conscious enough to realise that his alarm was ringing. A hand was shown rising from under the blanket where a world of fire and warming sensation into the outside world of ice and shivering coldness. With a swift, simple motion, the hand landed on the phone that was ringing and grabbed it like a servant fulfilling his mission, given by his master.
The young man turned the alarm off without even lifting his head outside of the blanket.
"Sighs! Thank God I woke up now." The young man said in relief.
He then stepped into the outside world full of shivering coldness but it didn't matter much to him. He liked being cold all the time; It makes him feel he is truly alive.
Stepping outside the blanket while rubbing his face, the young man stood on his feet, wearing a black trousers and nothing on his torso. He then grabs his black-in-color jacket which was thrown on the chair beside him and puts it on. Without closing its zipper, he pushed the door open only to see his younger sibling playing on the console.
'I'm sorry…' Two simple words echoed in his mind, making his mood shift to worse. He calmly sighed and headed to the kitchen, as for asking me how many times he opens the fridge? Well, he won't answer, it's just a habit.
Silent: "I wouldn't answer that either."
The young man took an apple to start his day, as-out of habit- he woke up early today at 10:56 AM. This looks quite good unless… you know how many hours he sleeps every night or day, doesn't matter.
Sitting on the couch, eating his apple, his phone is in his right hand and… Oh! Yes, he forgot his headphones! He wears the headphone on his head, like a bent-up ladder being placed on so many tree branches. The reason is… His hair! It was so long and curled around itself all by itself too! He used to play with his hair in some specific places, causing it to be curly but the rest was curly too, the reason is still unknown, but it may be his hair's nature in the end.
Silent: "don't ask me, I really don't know why."
He sat on the couch again after putting the headphone on his ears. The young man finished eating his most-loved fruit while reading a novel that made him quite addicted. Throwing the leftover of the eaten apple, he then continued to read the chapter he was engaged in.
Suddenly! His eyes scans a sentence in the middle of the chapter that made him stare in silence with complete emptiness. He kept staring to the point that the phone's screen turned off, revealing his face's reflection.
Depression was written all over his face, his eyes closing so much that it looks like they aren't even open to see anything. Darkness was spread under his pupils, destroying his shape and appearance even more. The true definition of being empty… Lifeless!
Putting the phone on the couch, the young man stood up and went to the bathroom to take a refreshing shower… of course, a cold one! Despite it's already winter, it makes the cold showers even better for him. Rolling the cold water's tab, flows of water poured on his head and kept railing all over his entire body.
Shivering coldness yet refreshing harmony, that's what the young man felt every time he takes this kind of crazy showers. Who takes cold showers in the middle of winter season? Well, a lot! But most of them are put of sight.
Pure darkness with a small source of light, the young man entered his room and shut off the door right after. The young man couldn't see a thing but, he was able to switch the lights button, revealing a room full of mess, destruction and loneliness!
***
In a vast area in the middle of nowhere, a man in his middle thirties was driving a motorcycle in place that looks like a desert full of sand and cactus. He drove with high speed that reached 120 km/h. Getting closer with each passing second to his destination, a door hidden within a hill full of sand was shown. The man parked his motorcycle and touched something. A few seconds later, the door opened right infront of his eyes. With a deep, cold stare, he entered the secret passage way. Soon, the door was slowly closing behind his back as he was walking into this pitch black passage way.
Walking in the darkness through the tunnel, the man didn't even turn on a flashlight! Moments later, some light glowed on his legs then his hands, his torso and finally his head. A magnificent room appeared, wide enough to be a main hall under the ground. It was so enormous and on top of that had so many technological devices, cables and wires… Urban!
"So… what do we have here?"
"Everything is under control now although, it was going to be disastrous but we managed to hold our own control… on Him!"
The man in his thirties was talking with what seems like a scientist about a huge problem they could solve in time. The man took a few steps forward, making him notice a shadowy silhouette resided in the dark.
"Turn on… the lights." The scientist did in advance after taking the command simultaneously. A moment of flickering lights, a man was shown sitting in an urban-like chair with lots of cables and wires. A helmet was placed on his head… In fact, it was a strange one, where most of the cables and wires being inserted in some holes or insertions in the helmet and a strange sound appered running from the sides of it.
His hands were handcuffed along with his feet, although the man was unconscious… unaware of everything that was happening or where he was.
"Sighs! You are a good boy, don't ever think again of drifting away from this road… MARKUS!"
