“Arriving at Gerusa” The announcer says, as Ja and Ronin begin to make their way out the train. “This city seems dirty," Ja says looking out the window. “Yeah well…we’ll only be here for a week or two” Ronin replies. Ja getting away from the window follows Ronin as they continue to walk out the train, and look around the station.  “Only like one person got off on this stop” Ja whispers seeing no one else get off the train. Ronin shrugs his shoulders, walking up to a map of the city. “GER…USA” Ja says tilting his head. Ronin looking at the map sees a homeless shelter where they offer food, and clothes. “We should head here,” Ronin says, pointing at the shelter. Ja nodding his head, rubs his chin. “You think they got hot babes there?”he jokingly says. Ronin makes an unamused face. “It's a homeless shelter,” he replies.   Ja putting his hands in the air, “So you saying homeless people can't be good looking.”Ja says trying to flip Ronins words. Ronin smacks his lips, and begins to walk towards the homeless shelter. Ja seeing him walk away does a slow jog to catch up “Heyy I was just kidding” He says. Both having their minds set they begin to make their way to the shelter. As the train leaves one more person hops off the train wearing an all black hoodie smiling as he sees Ja and Ronin walk away. Walking past a tv ja stops and puts his face against the glass. “Look!, look! at the TV Ronin,” He says excitedly, pointing. Ronin walking up to the tv smirks, “damn they must be really embarrassed” He says as Ja continues to watch the tv.  Ronin looking around checks his watch, “Damn it's already 8:30, the homeless shelter doesn't open until 9 in the morning,”  he thought to himself. Ja walks up to Ronin as clouds begin to form above them, almost as a storm was heading their way. “So we have to hold out until morning” Ronin says to Ja as they continue to walk down the street away from the tv. As they walk away the tv changes channels, the news reporter announces “the annual meteor shower is supposed to happen at 9:30 tonight, so get your jackets and umbrellas!”. Walking deeper into the city Ja sees a lot of teenagers all walking towards an open soccer field. “Ronin, what do you think is happening?” he asks. Ronin looking up seeing all the commotion squints his eyes. “ No clue…” he replied. 20 min go by as they continue making their way to the homeless shelter.  Turning into an alleyway, Ja, and Ronin set their bags down to set up camp. “I'm curious to see what everyone was so excited about” Ja says, as he puts on his army green jacket he was given as a gift. “I would lie if I said I wasn't” Ronin says following up what Ja said. Ronin looking around sees a fire escape that leads all the way to the roof. “Hey Ja…I have an Idea” he says, getting up he walks over to the fire escape and jumps on the ladder.  Ja looking up at Ronin who reaches out and pulls him up. “Lets go to the roof” He says. Ja smiling follows Ronin all the way up to the roof. As they get closer to the roof, wind begins to blow harder, and a loud sound of bells are heard. Ja and Ronin begin looking around trying to spot where that sound came from, but to their surprise they can't see anything around them to make that noise. Ja confused continues to climb the ladder. “I wonder what this event is, I’m so excited I can't wait!” Ja thought to himself. Reaching the top Ja is excited for the first time in months. Ronin climbing to the roof reaches over the edge, looks down seeing Ja smiling, He gives a light smile, “It's been a while since Ive seen Ja actually happy” he thought to himself. Pulling Ja on to the roof, they both go to the edge and overlook everyone. “Seems they're all staring at the sky.” Ronin says to Ja, both of them would look up. Both their eyes widen in amazement as the clouds form a circle, and bright lights begin to go in circles. Red lights, blue lights, green lights, All types of colors going faster and faster. “What's happening?” Ja thinks to himself as the lights stop. Hundreds or even thousands of them stopping in the air floating above the world. The lights freeze for 2 min before falling to the ground, and fading away in the distance. Ronin turns to Ja and sees him amazed, Smiling He wraps his arms around Ja as the lights fall, and fade away. “This is awesome…” Ja whispers. 

Through a sniper scope a man smirks seeing Ja, and Ronin looking at the meteor shower. “It's them Morales ... .they've grown up” A mysterious man says on the phone. “Good…Keep an eye on them until I get there,” Morales says. The mysterious man leans back in his chair, and lights a cigar. “Nah, they're not animals,” he says before hanging up the phone. Morales hearing the phone hang up sighs…..as he looks up in the sky. “It's all becoming a reality” He says to himself. “Stupid old man…He's always right” He continues to go on Remembering his past, looking at a baby Ja, and Ronin in a crib. Morales starts his bike, and begins to drive off towards Gerusa. 

The lights in the sky fade away as everyone begins to cheer after the meteor shower. Ja and Ronin make their way back to the alleyway, happy after experiencing the annual meteor shower. “That was honestly the coolest thing I've ever seen,” Ja says while walking behind a dumpster. Ronin nodding his head agrees, “Yeah I wonder why this is the first time we're hearing about this”. Ja closes eyes, as he begins to use the bathroom. “ I wonder if this is a regular occurrence…” Ja says before feeling the presence of someone standing behind him. Ja turning around blocks a blow from the man behind him. Sliding away from the force of the punch, he puts his guard up. “RONIN!” he yelled. Ronin, turning around sees Ja fighting the older man, tries to run to Ja, but gets grabbed from behind, and slammed into the ground. Getting his face pushed against the ground, Ronin tries to lift his head, but doesnt even make the man budge. “YOU KIDS WILL DIE FOR AZAZEL” The man says pulling out a butterfly knife from his pocket.Ja seeing Ronin put on the ground dashes towards the man, dodging a right hook Ja gets low, and punches the man three time in the body, The man grabbing his side, leaves his face wide open. Ja seeing the opening sucker punches  him in the face shattering his Jaw. Using this opening Ja begins to run towards Ronin, Not paying attention to the man he knocked down. “First wall: POZ” The man whispers as Ja is frozen mid run. “What the fuck” Ja thinks to himself , not being able to move a muscle. Ja hears footsteps rush towards him, picking him up Ja gets slammed on the ground. “Youll pay for my Jaw, fucker” The man says getting on top of Ja choking him out. Ja struggling to grab the man's face, each attempt has less and less force as he begins to get weak from the loss of oxygen. “Am I about to die?” he thinks to himself as his vision begins to fade. Ronin screams Ja name grabbing everything around to try, and get the man off him. Ronin, on the ground, gets a little bit of room allowing him to turn around just in time as the man tries to stab him in the face. Ronin blocking the blow pushes it, stops the cut from being deep but not quick enough for it to scratch his left eye. Grabbing a broken beer bottle Ronin Stabs the man in the neck, The man makes an angry face that turns to shock. Ronin looking at the man with anger turns into confusion. . The man's eyes glow orange as he tries to utter words, but the wound to his neck punctured his windpipe. Ronin would turn around to Ja, but is shocked.  Ja standing covered in blood with the man's throat in his hand. Standing over the body, Ja stares at Ronin with a soulless look with his eye glowing a bright blue. Ronin's heart begins to beat faster, but not with fear of the man. He fears what he sees in Ja. Dashing past Ronin is Ja, punching the man in the face slamming him into the dumpster. Ronin, looking at the man pulling out a knife about to stab Ja, Dashes to his backpack he grabs his bat, and begins to beat the man's head in. Hit after hit the blows become faster and Harder, until it's nothing but pieces of brains on the concrete. Blood covering Ronins face with more, and more blood. “JA ARE YOU OK!” Ronin asks, as he stares off into the distance. “JA!” he yells, getting Ja to snap back to reality. Ja runs over and grabs his bag and tosses Ronin his as they both begin to run. Running through crowds of people stop to ask them if they're ok, but they continue to run. “Did I just kill two people?” Ja thinks to himself. Remembering his dream, he remembers being called a monster, covered in blood he looks down at his clothes. Stopping in the middle of people he grabs his face, panicking he begins to hyperventilate. Ronin then grabs Ja hand, and begins to run full speed. “ DON'T LET GO!” he yells at Ja. “Maybe I am a monster” Ja thinks to himself as everything around him slows down, and the lights begin to get brighter, and the voices of the people block him from hearing anything.

Staring at Ja, and Ronin run, the mysterious man puts his scope down. “Not bad boys….Not bad at all” He says smiling.
