Terra was up in his room, in the currently fine city of Tair, stretching and relaxing. He was waiting at the door, looking down at his computer console, it was a black box with controller "I hope she doesn't take too long" said Terra to himself "Then again I don't mind I can have a break" he turns on the TV to the news, a male presenter stands in-front of a burning building

"...shock in the city of Tari as the Ruler burns down another factory"

"Again?"

"In her continuing degrading state, our ruler toasts down another leisure centre...but this centre was only for the anti-ruler foundation. In retaliation the ARF has smashed down the windows of a production factory therefore creating more—" Terra sighed and turned it off

"This town is getting more unsafe by the week...I need to keep stockpiling the fund and move to the surface. I've heard that new town is alright?" a knock comes to the door "Oh she's here"



As he opened the door, a girl with brown hair in an orange t-shirt and pants arrives "Saturn...you made it"

"I do like to make good customer service" she said enthusiastically "Especially to one of my few customers. Did it break again?"

"It did unfortunately, sorry about that"

"It's alright...I instead brought you something. Ta-dah" she shows him a new console "I got this for you"

"Oh really? How much?"

"Buy me lunch and it's free. You do buy more games than anyone else from me so I want to treat you every now and again"

"Thanks so much Saturn. Well once you get it plugged him, let's go since I have work in an hour"



Terra and Saturn were eating at a local chicken stand, noise of protestors outside bothering them. Saturn was a seller of video games merchandise, but wasn't the most popular, but Terra really liked her games and so was a frequent customer resulting in the two being good friends. Terra told Saturn of his recent ventures "I heard about that...how a boy got into the program, didn't think it'd be you though. If you can...care to tell us a little?" Terra looked around and whispered to Saturn "Wait Really!?"

"What I can say out loud is they're working on a project" said Terra "That apparently gives normal people special skills like our ruler"

"I find it hard to believe...that you're in the more advanced program I can say. If it's alright what is that the normal guys do and you more qualified guys do?"

"The normal ones...test equipment and machines, also training to help in the long run. For me...and the three others, I can only say it's labour intensive. I got in by a hair apparently, I'm keeping up...but it takes me a while"

"At least you're there...good on you"



Saturn looked to her electric watch "Well I'd better hit the road, seeing as you've got to get going to work"

"Hey...fancy coming over for a game-night again?" asked Terra

"Yeah why not. See you later" with a fist bump they parted.
