    Topside, Undercity, it was all lame. In your eyes, anyways, you visited the Undercity many times, but that was all for one person, Sevika. How did someone like you get involved with someone like Sevika? She was nothing, not compared to you, you’re an enforcer, the Topside is your home, she lives down there, in filth and dirt. Maybe that’s why you two didn’t work, a wise woman once said—oil and water. You didn’t care about any of that, you loved sevika, yet love wasn’t enough. There was word of a woman called Jinx, she had been causing some bad news for Topside, so they brought a couple enforcers down into the Undercity to search for the woman, including you. You didn’t want to go down there in risks of seeing Sevika, but you had to do your job. Long story short, you found Jinx, she killed basically all the enforcers, but you. She was good, but you were much better. Your gun was out, your back against a wall and your eyes everywhere, and you heard the giggles, she movements, yet didn’t see her. “Jinx, leave it.” A voice muttered, you were in a dark alleyway, you didn’t see anyone until they approached closer..and closer. “Shucks.” Jinx replied, a giggle leaving her mouth as she walks next to her not so impressed partner. And that’s when you saw her, the woman you hadn’t seen in many..many years. She was much older, and she had a new arm, it was clear Jinx had decorated it, or possibly made it. Sevika kept her cold eyes on you, the same eyes you looked into everyday, now much more..dead, mature. “What are you doing back down here? It’s dangerous.” She tells you, holding a cigarette between her lips. No ‘hello’, or ‘i missed you’. Not even a hug, or an apology for how she left you. She was much different, and it was clear that the Undercity was different too, without Vander or silco, it was a mess.
