Things are wrong in Neo Angeles. A hundred years have passed since the twin shivas of nuclear holocaust and climate collapse heralded the slow death burn of humanity. Only the omnipressive militant hand of the Pan China Hegemony keeps the final desolate wolves at bay. Meanwhile, in the remaining sanctuary cities, massive corporations like the biomed conglomerate Genaea and the nanorobotic titan TyrX Industries compete for financial dominance. Down below in the residential labyrinth of the Boxes live the poor, villainous and lost. All struggling to find meaning amid rampant commercialism, ancient divides of creed and race, cybernetic enhancement, virtual addiction, gang warfare and a society become machine.The hour is late when commissioner Hall arrives at Derik’s apartment to recruit the ex-detective for one last case. Lim Sung, daughter of an Echelon family, has disappeared and her loss has shaken the city to it’s core. From the crime lords in the Pits to the hushed corpocrats of Skyrest, machinations inert since the Fall are beginning to grind again. Of course Derik could care less. But the chance encounter with an idealistic resistance fighter named Red and the sarcastic video game caster Agnostina could change everything…Chapter 1: Cracks (3510 words) http://ift.tt/2teTNH0 2: Skyrest (2443 words) http://ift.tt/2rWf4RX always, I appreciate any feedback and hope you enjoy.
