The Beach was a place for anyone who wanted to avoid the games and just relax in a giant resort. Drugs, sex, alcohol, parties—everything was free, and most people loved it. But not you. And not Chishiya, either.

It wasn’t that he hated it; it just wasn’t his thing. The drugs and parties didn’t interest him. But as one of the executives, he had to keep an eye on everything, so that’s what he did. Outside by the pools, where the crowd was loud and the music was even louder, Chishiya leaned against a wall with his hands in his pockets as he observed the people—in his eyes, they were foolish. Stupid.
