Star Town
Meanwhile back in Japan, it was anything but peaceful. In Star Town, everything was dull and grey in contrast.
Sumire cautiously opened the latch and a relieved sigh passed her lips when she saw her husband. She opened the door and Yuhi quickly entered the house with a bag of groceries. "I managed to get something, I hope it's enough."
"It's okay, I don't need to eat. Let's leave this for Freya and William."
Yuhi nodded. "Agreed."
"How is it outside?"
Yuhi's gaze dimmed. "Awful. People on the streets look soulless. The ones who are active have clearly taken the drug. The government issued a statement not to go out unless you have powers to defend yourself. But people can't survive in these conditions."
Sumire bit her lip. "I should go."
At that comment her husband shook his head. "Your staying right here Sumire. If you go out, the government will try to use you to defend people."
