After losing my job, the homeless shelter I run ends up shutting down. A group of rich bored locals decide to pick it up for me, and I head back out on the road. I take the teleportation booth to Moscow, and back to the other homeless shelter I ran.
The door is locked. I don't remember locking it... I insert the key, but it doesn't turn.
"What the hell..."
Someone on the other side of the door must've heard me fumbling with the lock, and opens the door.
"Can I help you?"
"I should be asking you this. I run this homeless shelter."
"Oh, so you're Gheran. Not anymore you don't. We're operating with direct orders from Lin-Sat to take over this institution as a base of operations."
"Wait... You're turning a homeless shelter into an armory???"
"You need to leave now."
He closes and locks the door before I can say anything else.
This is just f'ucking great... I walk along the poor section of town, and see if I can volunteer anywhere. I enter a nearby soup kitchen. Not only were there any guests, the inside looks like it has just been in a war. I see a woman with her head down on a table, and sit across from her.
"That soup looks good!"

Finally, Violet is showing her true colors. Those who feel she is compassionate are clearly mistaken. Ukko enjoys this loss of her normal composure.
"Forced labor...very just indeed."

"Riku... you still don't knock first I see." Deetric brushes his hair back, away from his mask. "That they have their own choice in which orders they follow is a sign of weakness.
For all the talk of friendship being greater and of individual will winning out, it is these people here who control the world. Mr. Bassarov failed before, and I believe that he will fail again now."

Lin-Sat hears his door open, and two capitalists are thrown in.
"You both probably haven't worked a day in your life. I think forced labor would be the perfect opportunity for you to catch up on that. I order you both to be sent to the labor camps in Siberia for the rest of your pathetic lives. You will be escorted out."

I look up and see a young man standing before me. I quickly stand up. He doesn't look like the normal street people that come in here.
"Hello. There is plenty of soup if you would like some."
I walk over to the large pot, which is full of hot, steaming soup, and ladel out a bowl, which I hand to the stranger.
"I haven't seen you around here before."

I didn't enter Lady Violet's office.From everything I heard I just sighed a little one and started to walk away.While I was walking I saw beyond a glass wall the red flag of red infinity.I looked away and continued to walk. |

"Thank you, miss, I will have some if nobody else is being served. Where is everybody? I see bullet holes all over the entrance, I assume that has something to do with the vacancy?"
I take a sthingyful of soup. She's a wonderful cook.

I look at Moroii and Riku.
"If you wish to argue take it elsewhere. My office is officially closed for the rest of the day."
I slam my office door and take some tylenol for my headache.

Work has been good for Dahlia, as she loves spending time working with plants, but she hasn't been able to quite forget that night in Adrian's apartment. As she passes by his door on her way to her own, she pauses and contemplates the gold number 206 that sits against the wooden background.
She misses seeing him, and though she still feels confused about everything that happened, she has a great desire to knock on his door and talk with him. Dahlia feels such a connection with this particular person. Cowardly, she turns away from the door and goes into her own apartment. She goes out onto the balcony to water her precious plants.

the others leave and i go to but she slams the door. ah lady violet.... i came to ask if you would come to the concert at helsinki... the others dont know im asking but i wanted peace and i knew they would say no to it... so that is why i came.. though you seem stressed so maybe it was a bad idea after all.
Riku
i shrug as she slams the door. ... care to take her advice vampire..

"Actually, I just returned back here only a few hours ago. I have not been here to fulfill my duties to society, so I suppose no one thought that there would be any food here to eat."
I look at the filled bullet holes in the wall as I speak to the man.
"There was a terrible fight here. Many were killed. I... couldn't stop it."
He eats the soup, and I refill his bowl when it gets low. I sit down across from him at the long brown table.

Deetric turns and walks away, "See you around Riku, there are things that must be done." Moroii leaves, hailing a cab and heading to the air port.
