Looking at the sun it looked almost spherical, squinting his eyes Xadia could now tell that the sun looked very artificial
Due to Jupiter being Seven hundred and forty million kilometers away from the sun.
Half of the planet's side was without light and the new Utopia had been built on the warm and cold sides.
One of the eighty moons of Jupiter had been mutated with energy crystals and had turned very bright to be called the new world's sun moon. Due to its ability to shine like the moon and the sun.
Although it had no properties of the real sun, except for its blinding light, it was okay for the new human civilization.
"Well Jupiter is eleven times bigger than the earth, and the sun doesn't cover this side, an artificial sun is appropriate, but it doesn't look like it was built."
"Oh well, I'll figure that out later," Xadia said has is his eyes were becoming watery from staring too much.
Xadia had decided to roam about the city so he could get used to living in a sci-fi world as he termed it. he just needed to figure something out.
"Now how do I turn on these sneakers".
He tried running around to see if he could activate the sneakers but it wasn't working.
"Come on come on, ugh".
"Hmm..if it's a hover sneaker there must be a button somewhere," Xadia thought stroking his chin.
Bending down Xadia found two buttons, one was big and the other was small, pressing the bigger button, Xadia launched into the air and hit the wall.
"That was so much better in my head," Xadia said scratching his head.
Getting up Xadia carefully pressed the smaller button.
Slowly he was being suspended into the air and now Xadia could see the beautiful sight of the city.
Tilting to the sides, he hovered left right front, and backward, adjusting to the new Cr5
After that Xadia hovered around the city
and he had taken to note that there were mostly hunter guilds and crystal shops in the city, there were three siphonization offices in the city, and only the rich and more privileged could afford to become a siphon.
Still hovering around xadia had reached an area which he took to be where the less privileged resided.
The air was fuming with a horrible stench and xadia had decided to leave the area as he was this close to purging
Xadia hadn't known it, but he had been hovering for hours as he was astonished at the sight of the city.
It was now almost night time and the mutated moon had started to retain its light.
And Xadia still hovering in the air was watching the dimming sun-moon.
It was now nighttime, suddenly
Xadia could see a type of glowing wave heading his way.
"What is that whitish color".
It was until the whitish color had gotten to him, that he deduced what the color was, but it was too late.
"Oh shit".
The wave had hit him and he was now crashing down with no way of stopping himself.
Eventually, he had gone through an alley and crashed into a garbage can.
"Yuck, it's like this city hates me".
Standing up in the garbage can, a raging fire heading his way had got him to quickly jump out of the garbage can.
The garbage can was not fireproof and it had turned into crisps as it had been pulverized, and now Xadia was imagining what would have happened if he hadn't jumped out of the way.
In the alley, Xadia could see two people fighting, and he could see that they were both siphons.
And Xadia had guessed they were both gang members has their gang logo was on their cloth.
A man with blonde hair in a glowing red suit, with a white dragon-like logo smeared on his cloth, seemed to be an elemental siphon.
He held a red briefcase and xadia had guessed that it was the reason they were fighting.
While the other guy was a grey tiger mutant with claw-like tattoos on his fur and face.
The Tiger Mutant suddenly sped up and jumped toward the man in red who countered with a shot of blazing fire to the altered.
Seeing the fire coming his way midair, the Mutant then kicked in the air and dodged the fire attack.
It was as if he could manipulate the wind, which he could as he was a wind elemental mutant.
Still heading straight at the fire siphon, he clawed at him and landed a successful hit on his chest.
Due to the pain in his chest,
the red man exploded in flames and it had spread through the alley,
Xadia seeing the flame coming his way launched in the air with his sneakers to get out of the alley but he was met with an invincible force that stopped him.
"What is this, is this an energy barrier".
Xadia wondered has it had been the second time he had been hurt by an invincible force.
Looking down, the mutant seemed to be holding the briefcase now and was about to leave the alley.
"There's nowhere to go, I put up an energy barrier as soon as I noticed you following me, so you're stuck here with me, and I can't wait to burn you alive".
The fire siphon then rushed at the mutant with fire shooting out of his hands and feet and had been propelled to the air.
Shooting out a punch of fire from his hands, a wall of fire had been created, and the mutant had been cornered.
"Now it's time to die".
Conjuring the energy in his hand, a thick red raging fire had been shot at the mutant, as a last result the altered shot out his nails to the fire siphon.
Their attacks had been successful, the altered was screaming from the fire attack, and the fire siphon was falling from the air.
"Are they dead?," Xadia wondered as none of the gang members was moving.
Descending to the floor xadia could now see it, the Tiger mutant was burnt to crisp, glowing siphon nails had impaled the fire siphon on the neck and he had bled to death.
The red briefcase was lying on the floor, it had survived the fire attack.
"I wonder what's in the briefcase".
Suddenly the dimension bracelet glowed green and the briefcase had vanished
"No no no I'm not taking this
possessius!!" Xadia yelled but nothing happened.
"As you have disappeared, glow again and reappear!!" Xadia said trying to emit the bracelet to bring out the briefcase
"Is there a button on this thing".
"Stupid bracelet, stupid city," Xadia cursed as he was frustrated at his attempts to bring the briefcase out of the bracelet
"I have to get out of here before the others arrive".
Walking to the passage in the alley Xadia threw his hands in the air.
"it seems that the last attack destroyed the energy barrier".
Running away from the alley xadia soon could hear sirens heading in his opposite direction, towards the alley, the city patrolmen had arrived at the scene.
Activating the Cr5, Xadia launched to a glowing skyscraper.
"Phew that was a close one".
Looking at the city, it was back to its futuristic form, the road was glowing again and everything looked advanced.
"I get it now, in the day, the buildings transform into a daytime form to conserve the energy from the crystals, and at night they are back to this form".
"bbdskghd".
A sound in his stomach interrupted his deduction. touching his stomach, Xadia was famished.
Thinking about the food in the bracelet it had appeared by his side.
"So you're working now".
Thinking back to the red briefcase, Xadia tried to make it appear, but nothing happened.
Taking the Currell container pack by his side, he had opened it.
In the pack was a whitish-looking powder and a spoon.
With the spoon, in his hands Xadia took a chunk of the powder and shoved it in his mouth.
His eyelids dropped and his burrows knitted,
"What in the tarnation's is this, it tastes like sand, flour, and milk,". Xadia said as he spat the uneven substance in his mouth.
Taking the water bottle next to him,xadia examined it, unknowingly to him he held the bottle upside down, and he saw a button on its side he pressed on it, spilling the water on his so-called sand flour and milk.
"Well would you look at that".
The Currell in the container had begun to rise, it was growing in shape, and a few minutes later it looked like well-yeasted dough.
Wasting no time Xadia had dug in and was eating as fast as a starved rooster, the water had brought out the flavor in the Currell and it was a good treat.
Having finished the Currell, Xadia laid down on the rooftop, minutes later he had fallen asleep, little did he know what troubles awaits him.
--- --- ---
On a rooftop above a supposed crime scene stood a man in a glowing red suit, a white dragon logo smeared on his cloth.
beep beep
"Did you find him," a deep rotten voice resonated through a crystal-powered cellphone.
"Yes, he's dead".
"What?! Chain is at least a level 7 fire siphon, how is he dead"
"You know chain, he is a reckless devil, he got laid out by a puny little cat"
"Enough with the childish puns, what about the briefcase?".
"Gone".
"Can you track it"
"Yes, apparently the only thing Chain listened to was putting a tracker on the briefcase as soon as he got it".
"Good, find it and bring it back to me, ASAP"
