Scene 1.1 - Flashback

The air was heavy with grief, as the TTC had finally reached its long-awaited downfall. The impact had shattered the structure of the tallest building in the city, sending shockwaves through the world. Chaos ensued as people watched in horror.

Ren, caught in the midst of the debris, desperately searched for her companion, Sen. Panic gripped her as she realized Sen was nowhere to be found. Her heart sank as she surveyed the destruction, realizing that Sen may have perished. She stopped running, frozen in shock, unable to accept the loss.

As the debris closed in, Ren's despair grew. She felt the weight of another life slipping away from her grasp, and the guilt of her inability to save them. Coughing and covered in dust, she stood there, her mind consumed by grief.

Suddenly, a faint sign of hope flickered within Ren. She had been taught to save those she could, but this time, she had failed. The pain was unbearable, and she questioned her purpose in this shattered world. Tears streamed down her face as she shakingly clutched a small, heavy, and cold object. It was an M1911 from her pocket. 

With a lifeless expression, Ren pressed the gun against her temple. She hesitated for a moment, her heart heavy with sorrow, before summoning the courage to pull the trigger.

Scene 1.2 - Prologue

5 Years Ago, Kagashikawa was one of the biggest cities in the world with a thriving economy, affordable prices and many technologies that nobody could find elsewhere. With 16.782 km² of area, almost as big as Beijing. This city is one of the most populated cities in the world.

At the heart of this thriving city, a groundbreaking invention was made, the plutonium-powered nuclear power plant. This technology harnessed a new and revolutionary energy source. While traditional nuclear power plants relied on uranium for nuclear fission, this unique facility utilized plutonium in an entirely different manner. The exact workings of this mechanism were shrouded in secrecy, a closely guarded secret known only to a select few.

The plutonium-powered plant operated on a principle that diverged from conventional nuclear power generation. Rather than breaking apart molecules to generate heat, it harnessed the power of radioactivity waves, channeling them into a process of radio-monitored movement that ultimately produced energy. The precise details of this method remained a mystery, adding an air of intrigue to the already remarkable technology.

Remarkably efficient indeed, the plant pushed the boundaries of energy generation, offering a glimpse into a world of virtually limitless power. It allowed for the consumption of substantial amounts of energy while requiring significantly fewer resources. Merely a few hundred grams of plutonium had the potential to sustain the entire city for an entire year.
