[Prolouge] Program Initializing...

You mutter curses under your breath.

There are no spacious taxis or buses available today. It was your fault for being careless in your time management. So, you were caught up in the rush hour. You lift your left hand and brush back your long sleeved coat to check the time.

"7:45 p.m."  You read.

But still, you've got to admit, the city is indeed still quite alive during this time of the day. No surprises there though, many people are out to party, some are out working nightshifts to turn that extra buck. And you, dumbfounded that you can't get home because you had cram that last minute report for your boss.

You breathe out a sigh of frustration. You decide to wait out the rush hour in a nearby KMoonbucks cafe. It's not far really, just a 10 meter walk away from where you stand. As you walk towards it, you see that the cafe interior is quite packed, but there is one table for two empty and no one is lined up to order. Everybody is settled in their seats. Some are reading their books. There are some who chatter away with old friends.

There is an employee waiting at the front of the cafe. As he sees you, he smiles and opens the door for you.

"Good evening sir." he says.

Out of respect and appreciation, you give him a curt nod.

The lady manning the cashier looks your way. "Excuse me, would you like a coffee?" she asks politely.

You wave her away and tell her that you were just passing the time by as you walk towards that empty table for two that you saw earlier.  

But something catches your attention.

There is an expensive Phone on the table. You instantly recognize this because behind it is a logo of an orange that was bitten. And, beside it is a note scribbled with what appears to be binary numbers of 0 and 1 that was hastily written down.

Hoping to find the owner, you swipe the screen to the right, and a futuristic-looking dark blue sphere lined with silver appears and asks for a three-liner code - the same thing written down on the note.

You click the media button, curious of what it does. But then, something unexpected happens.

A dark blue bubble bursts forth from the phone, enveloping you and the immediate area. The world around you shifts into dark blue, the bustling city, lies still, the cars, racing through the traffic stopped completely the people who were once bustling with life and motion were now motionless and only you can seem to move about, and the things that you touch have this time-freezing effect reversed on them.

Surprised, you stand and knock down the very chair you sit on. At that moment too, a silver line appears in front of you and expands into a widescreen.

"Hello." A young man in the screen says. "My name is Michael. I am a Null agent."
