This is the Shinjuku ghetto that 26 years ago was rebuilt with the other ghettos in Japan. It involves many train tracks that transport goods from the main settlement and, contrary to the original design, of it shares the same sewer line.

Ahren looked out the window of the limo to see the gray city. It may be rebuilt but it was minimum standards still. It was still dead. There are no real jobs. Its the brain drain in full swing. Ahren was disgusted. "We are almost there..." he mumbled.

"So what plans do you have for Shinjuku sir?" Asura asked "Going to recruit maybe? We could always use more soldiers." he smiled "Perhaps I should get a few test subjects while I'm here, can't be to careful when messing around with you genes you know." he stared out the window "I haven't been here since I killed my father four years ago."

Ahren leaned back in the seat with a bemused expression on his face. "Every thing about your past is so dark. I can't decide if its excellent or sad. Probably some twisted version of both. I think some sight seeing when put in conjunction with recruiting the local criminals for pawns might cheer you up. " he said closing his eyes. They stopped in front of the old subway stations that were left abandoned because they had no primary use due to the reconstruction of the ghetto. "Drug trafficking of refrain usually takes place in these tunnels. The Knight Police usually turns a blind eye to this because of their corrupt nature. Despite the ploys to clean up their acts Britannian higher ups will always be greedy in the bureaucracy." he said getting out of the car. His face gleamed with a small grin. "It also is rumored among very reliable sources to be the birth place of Zero. Figuratively of course." he said looking at the structure.

"It might." he said "Also your find the reason for my past to be much simpler if I told you why you can't find anything, but that's a story for latter." he got out of the car "Perhaps I might find some addicts here that might make decent subjects."

"This would be the place to start. They usually don't have minds to begin with. They won't lose anything by being a lab rat." Ahren said changing into a more comfortable shirt. The school one chaffs. He didn't think he mentioned as he threw it into the limo.

Solo was pleased. This area opened up widely ...there were many tunnels from here, so this should have been discouraging as nothing more than another access point ...if it wasn't for the fact that he could see something that looked like an old truck. It had been blown to bits at one point, but most of it's frame still existed as he went close to it to check it out.
"There was a fight here."
He couldn't help the excitement in his voice as he went from one form of wreckage as he looked into the shell of the vehicle.
There wasn't anything inside, and if there had been ...he could imagine what rats and time had done to it.
Though that didn't stop him from looking more and more around the room. His eyes darting from one thing to another, and then suddenly he slump down boneless.
"There is nothing here."
he whined lightly.
He thought maybe he had stumble upon some sort of battle zone, because, generally you can find old weapons and such in those. But, this must have been a one sided massacre. Other than the burnt out old truck, and rat bitten gas mask ...Solo couldn't find anything of value here on first glance.
And, if it was buried or hidden, he didn't have the supplies to do more than just grumble about it.
In other words, this was another useless ...endeauvor[sp?]. He held fished for his cellphone then as he flipped it open. The light from the phone blinding him temperorarily as he looks at the time.
He didn't have to turn around yet.
Thus, he looked around for anywhere else to go, and decided upon taking the right tunnel.

As Ahren descended he looked around. His eyes adjusted quickly to the darkness. As he did he thought he saw a boy. It looked like he was wearing a school uniform like he had had one only moments before. "Hello?" he called making sure Asura was still with him.

Asura was right behind Ahren "Did you see something?" his eyes adjusted and he saw what he was looking at "So there are people still down here." he got in front of Ahren just in case if anything should go down

The sound echoed as Solo felt a chill go up his spine. This wasn't exactly one of the places you wanted to met someone ...as he tries to think why anyone would be done here, and an excuse.
He came up with one as he turns around.
"Ummm...hello ...back."
Solo calls back in the darkness.
"Sorry, was I not suppose to go down here?"
He asked as he turned around towards the voices, but thanks to his reintroduction to light a moment before ...the darkness was thicker than before. He couldn't really see a foot in front of his face ..as he wished for a moment he had thought to cover one eye when he looked at his phone. That way, he wouldn't really have to adjust so much to the darknes, since only one eye would have to refocus thanks to the bright light.
But then again, whom would think they would run into someone down here.

Asura took a set closer to the boy to get a better look "That's a Ashford Academy uniform." he said dismissing the fact he was wearing one to "What are you doing here?" he smiled slightly "This place can be dangerous you know."

Now it was one thing not to be able to see far, but as he got closer ...he could see better. And the longer it was from being exposed from the light, the better he could see, and he narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"How about the kettle trying to call the pot black, you are from the academy as well." "What are you doing here?" "I am working on my history report ...by trying to find some artifacts from back then, but, what about you?"
Solo declares sharply. He didn't like this guy ...not one bit.

Asura clenched his fist "I don't like your tone kid." he took a fighting stance "Perhaps I should teach you some manners." he lowered his fists "Or would you like to have a chat with this one Brant?" he smiled "What we are doing here....is none of your concern. in fact, I highly doubt you story is true, besides." he got a better look at him "By the look of you, your probably Solo, correct, the other students tend to talk a awfully lot about you."

Solo was stun.
Here he is in a dark, dank tunnel, and even here he couldn't get away from his reputation at school. He felt like throwing his cellphone at them, and it wasn't made any better when the first kid dared to get in a fighting stance.
He could kick his a**, and call it a day. Though if he is going to blow his cover it was going to be for some good reason.
"Good, I was hoping it sucks ...just like running into you two." "Humph, why never a pretty girl ...in a dark place like this that could be fun, but two dudes." "Really, why should I be pleased, and you two just happen to have sweet attitudes and be geniuses to boot."
"Yeah, how many dark skinned students actually go to that academy?"
"Look, you can drop your fighting stance." "I don't have a reason to fight you, unless, beating the hell out of you will get me a A in history." "IF not, get out of my way."
Solo declares as he humphs lightly and starts to move to go past Asura. There was no sense in fighting over nothing anyway. He can investigate this place another day, because, with these two around ...he couldn't quite get away with any weaponry he would find.
He moved with one eye watching him carefully.
