The Suits: Chapter One: Luxor Suite

"He's a Hallow..." The priest shuddred out as he finished taking my blood sample.1

"What is that Father?" My dumb mother gasped out.2

I can't believe it. I am one of them, one of the specially gifted ones. My name is Pelops Armanies. I'm fourteen years of age and I just found out I can do something that only about forty other people can do every decade. Though, I have no idea what I do yet. The priest doesn't seem to happy too, nor does my father. I thought this was a good thing, living in our dictatorship goverment, he always said that Hallow's should rise up and fight the man. What's wrong with me.3

"Oh no, oh god no..." I wonder why my father isn't a bit more excited.4

The priest leaped up from his seat and grabbed me sharply at the forearm. He pulled at me hard, and literally draged me out of my room. My mother came up and tried to stop the holy man, but all he said was, "Best leave him in our hands ma'am. He's too dangerous to be left in the hands of an average."5

My mom stopped there, plopped onto her knees crying into her hands. And all my dad did was put his hands on her shoulders, in an attempt to comfort her. 6

The holy man continued to drag me through my living room, kitchen, and then out the front door, onto the asphalt of the Inner City.7

He took me to his hover bike and stood beside it, staring at me.8

"Get on, I'll be taking you to the Suits."9

"Eh...who are they Father Manann?"10

"People who will put you to use."11

I was confused, i had no idea what the hell was going on. I reluctantly got on the bike and Manann followed suit, then we were off onto the International Hover Highway. Swerving into traffic, the clean air of 3245, the pine scent of christmas is everywhere. The Suits...hope they're nice.12

It had been about 30 minutes when we came into New Metronome, the megacity rebuilt after the Reset, central economic hub. Old fasion skyscrapers soar into the atmosphere, large gilded windows littered the sights above the eyes main view. The Newly rebuilt Ascendancy is still being used as the main port for tourists. Oh, a thousand years of water damage has left New Metronome in a shamble, but we're rebuilding, making the old Metronome bigger and better than it was all those years ago.13

The Holy man slowed his bike, coming into the old Delacrois Spire parking garage, now renamed Aggromonetary. I thought this was a famous hotel spot for tourist from provinces outside of the Inner City. We came to a complete stop on a usual parking space, and the holy man told me to follow. I did. I walked for quite a while, i think 10 mins until we entered an elevator. The door closed and I asked the man what floor we going to stop on.14

"None.." Was his answer.15

He took out a small PDA-like device, outstretched a USB and attatched it to a tiny port atop the panel of floor buttons.16

He took out an ear/mouth piece connected to the PDA and put it on, dialing a number and waiting, speaker was on so I heard everything.17

"This is Vorrs, I have the kid." What? Were they expecting me? And I thought this holy bitches name was Mamann!18

"Good...You are cleared, make you way to Zero-One, and report to Foxtrot."19

"Will do."20

This now, 'Vorrs' guy hung up and dialed a whole new number, only about 4 digits long. "1337"21

We shot up in the elavator, so fast I felt gravity pounding against me. The elavator was a clear one, so i could see into the city, the sun began to set a bit too quickly, and strangly enough, it was only 4:14 PM.22

We screeched at a stop on a floor know as, The Luxor Suite. I was thrown up and then fell back down at the sheer intensity of the stop. Vorrs only smirked and told me get up. I did. The doors of the elavator opened up and I was blinded by an all white scenery.23

A small protocal hover drone came in front of us.24

"Welcome to Zero-On Pelops, please follow Colonel Vorrs to FoxTrot and Co. They will tell you whats going on."25

The drone flew away and Vorrs walked ahead of me, I guess I should follow. I looked around at the white circular room, nothing but pure white, so white, it seemed as if the ceiling was fading, like nothing was there, like a deep white void of nothingness. I was getting caught up in my thoughts again, I ran up to Vorrs who was waiting at the only other door in the room, it being white too.26

"I can only show the door, what you have to do, is walk through it."27

With that, Vorrs walked back into the elavator and left. I now know that I had to do something, I stared intently on the door, put my hand on the knob, and turned.
