Chapter 1 - Aren't you too young for this?!

"One... More.. time..."

Vensata Panting, sounding like he'd just ran a whole marathon.

"One.. more... Beer-"

"Shut up, you can't handle it"

On his side was Denbil, one of his friend said to him bluntly. They were on a Bar with several people talking to each other and drinking. he looked at Vensata who looks like he will pass out.

"Anyway, after a week, we will have to- okay you're not listening."

Vansata is pouring more and more Beer which was overflowing out of the Glass. He throws the bottle behind which caused the people to look at the bottle and Vensata. Denbil looked at Vansata with "Seriously?" Look.

"Ahhh- what is better than... A... Beer?"Vensata said, his hand gripping on the Glass Handle and drinking in on one go.

"One week.. listen to me damn it! We have one week before we have to pay off the rent! You do realise we will-"Denbil stops on his words as he sees Vansata passed out."HEYY!!"

After a few minutes, Vensata opens his eyes he sees himself with Denbil who was carrying him on his back with an Annoyed face, walking on the sidewalk with the sound of vehicles going past them.

Vensata pushes himself away from Denbil causing Denbil to stumble forward."You little..."

"I am fine and Sober, don't worry, you don't have to carry me like a backbag..."Vansata said, sounding a bit more sober than before.

"Okay whatever... We have to find a job or something before we get kicked out by the landlord. First, you go to the left and I will go to right to find a job."

Denbil points at the direction, he was looking serious about this, Vensata nods and they go to opposite direction, determined to get some money anyhow. As Vensata was walking he saw a Young girl who was looking suspicious because of her dark mask and dark hoodie. She looks left and right to make sure none sees her. She silently goes to a dark alleyway seemingly vanishing in the darkness. Vensata slowly peeks through the alleyway just to see darkness in his vision.

"Who was she? Maybe a criminal?.. wait-Maybe I can catch her and hand her to police and get some money.. hold up, do police give money for it?"Vensata thinks on his dumb head, he shakes his head and snaps out of his thoughts and goes inside the dark alley, staying Viligant just in case.

Vensata was kinda creeped out by how dark it was, even a gentle wind sent a shiver down his spine. He saw a door illuminating light on the small gaps, curiousity out ahead of him and try to slowly open the door. Surprisingly, the door wasn't unlocked at all. Vensata Accidentally opens the door too wide as he thought the door was unlocked he looks inside and saw the same girl with mask and hoodie, who turned to Vansata.

"Uh... Hey, I think I got to a wrong apartment. Silly me-"Vensata said nervously but got interrupted by the sound of a clip knife opening on the hand of the girl."okay... Miss, I think you're too young to have a knife..."

The girl approachs him, she doesn't seem to be that type of the person to just listen. Vensata slams the door closed. The girl trys to open the door but Vensata blocks the door with his body. He is worried about how to escape this situation. He looks around the alleyway and found a chair, he puts the chair on the door nob but unfortunate for him the chair broke by the girl force.

"Yeah.. why did I thought it was a good Idea.."Vensata said with a sweat in his forehead as the figure of the girl is Infront of him, holding the clip knife on her hands."actually...."

Vensata got an idea and try to runs outside the alleyway, the girl chased after him of course. Vensata grab this chance and hid on a wall thanks to the darkness the girl ran past him. She got outside and saw Vensata was gone and got pissed off, she looks left and right before running to a direction trying to find him.

Meanwhile, Vensata got out from the wall he was hiding and goes to the door the girl stayed. He looks around and it seemed like a storage room with... Money and some kind of devices laying on one of the drawers. Vensata is confused by the sight of this.

"Robber? What the hell? isn't she... too young for this?"He thought to himself, this was pretty weird but he decided to check further into this.

He found different kind of Devices, money, jewellery and even some furniture. it seems like the girl was hiding the things she stole like any other robbers will. Vensata opens his phone and trys to call the police, but something strange happens... The signal was cut off, the light went off the room seems to be engulfed by the darkness just like the alleyway.

Vensata opens his phone flashlight."Perfect.. just what I needed. Are the people in charge of the electricity out of their work? And why is the signal suddenly off?"Vensata said with a slight worried expression, he was questioning everything about his choice to come here instead of trying to find a damn job.

He moves the flashlight around the room once more before deciding this was enough but before he could turn, he heard a cold and stern voice behind him

"Don't move."
