St. Louis, Missouri - 2004 Donovan Gurnsey, he lived close to the big city, but that wasn't enough. It seemed like everything in this city was against him. His dad had left him when he was 9, and his mom always left for days at a time and was an alcoholic. He had a little sister, Pierson, who he spent most of his time after school caring for. He loved her without a doubt, she was all he had. Whenever his mom would come home, he would take the beating for her. He can barely provide for himself and his sister, and whenever his mom finally comes home, she takes everything and leaves yet again. Making his situation even worse. Hopefully something will pull him out of this mess, or maybe, someone.

San Francisco, United States - 2149 Hanako Sato, an immortal girl who spends a lot of her trying to die. She spends her days working, in order to pay for this... rather interesting hobby of hers. She has no friends, is disconnected from her family, and has never even been in any sort of relationship. She has lived about a few hundred years. She is simply doing her own thing, when she comes across something she's never seen before, or rather, felt before. (I don't know the HamsterFragment girl's real name, I looked for it and couldn't find it. So, I just named her a random name. I'm also assuming she is Japanese, purely guessing off of her appearance.)
