Isao shivered in the frigid air as he pulled a cigar out of his coat. He could feel the warm chattering of the cafe shut behind him, the back metal door clanging against crystal ice, a sharp cracking sound piercing the air. When he was told there was to be a gathering of the Correctors, he was overjoyed, but when he was told where it was taking place, he was a lot less enthusiastic. Not that he didn't like cafes, he just couldn't stand them for too long or else he would go crazy. He put the cigar up to his lips, tasting the tobacco, his cheap lighter igniting the cigar, a flood of flavor invading his mouth as he inhales the smoke. He blew a smoke ring into the air, watching it soar away into the gray sky. He continued to puff on the cigar, lost in thought about a breeding issue with the local deer population. His phone blared the sound of a Harley being revved up, his pocket vibrating from the force. He smiled and checked the message.

[i]Get back inside now, cowboy. Hackers on the move.

He grinned and took another puff on the cigar, before extinguishing the flame and heading inside. They had rented out the cafe for a couple hours, the once bustling internet sanctuary was now empty, save for the Correctors. He plopped down on a beanbag next to Karasugawa or just 'Kara' as he taken to calling her, he gave her a mischievous grin and plugged in. The whole world went dark, being replaced with a grid and a Gvn official. Though something was off about him and before he could reach for his revolver, he was being pushed down with a massive amount of pressure. He collapsed to one knee, growling his effort to keep upright. He glanced around, seeing the others struggling as well. He took a painstaking step and fell into darkness, the G-force crushing him into unconsciousness. When he awoke, he was met with a golden city, the shining street and sparkling towers filled his heart with wonder. Then he glanced around and his heart was filled with giddy excitement. He was with the two of the girls! Upon closer inspection though, neither of them were Kara as he was hoping, but he'd rather be with these two then Apex or some other killjoy. He got to his feet, his flames returning to his skeletal form, his eye sockets faintly glowing with red excitement as he gains his bearings. Deddoai yanks his revolver from his holster, flipping the flaming cylinder out of it's compartment, rapidly loading the bullets. He spins the cylinder, a swirl of flames unleashes and it slams shut. He looks towards crystal, nodding, his flames getting brighter as the adrenaline starts to pump through him. He walks with the two girls, twirling his revolver on his index finger. "So, have any idea where we are?"
