《The Traveling Shop Keeper》3 - Strange Undercurrents
Advertisement
Tyler didn't bother struggling against the large man who had pinned him to the ground. Maybe he would have struggled on the upper floors, but here, Tower AI would make sure that nothing serious actually happened.
He began to reconsider his decision as he realized that the man who tackled him was Tower security. "W-wait a second…"
"STOP RESISTING!!" The man screamed at Tyler.
Feeling his face being pushed against the floor, he spoke from the corner of his mouth. "Oh, I wouldn't dream of resisting Tower security sir."
"Oh do let the boy up Sean. I mean, just look at him, he isn't running off anywhere." Tyler recognized the scornful voice immediately. Agent Mason looked down upon him once again, "The little shop keeper will be happy to answer any questions we have, won't he?"
Tyler was able to gain his feet, he looked at the female agent. "You won't have any trouble from me, but I'm not too sure why I needed to be tackled to the ground."
"We'll just leave it with our security officer here is having a very bad day, and unfortunately he went above the required effort to satisfy my desire to talk to you." She briefly looked at the agent, then returned her glare back on Tyler. "I have one question for you, I would like to have access to your recent history on your Registration chip."
Tyler picked up on the fact that her request was really an order. "Sure" he shrugged, trying to keep his body language cool. While he knew he hasn't done anything worth worrying about in his recent history, one misstep with a Tower Agent could result in serious repercussions in not only Tower privileges, but punishments inside HYTOMA as well. He held out his right arm, his eyes following the small tablet pass over his wrist. The agents eye brow raised as she looked at the information displayed on the tablet, not saying anything.

"Now your left please." She said without emotion, more noticeably to Tyler, without any scorn. What was going on?
"I already gave you my chip in my right wrist, there isn't a chip in my left wrist…" he said as he was quickly cut off
"I didn't ask if you had a chip, I said now your left." She was angry now, she quickly grabbed his left hand and passed the tablet over his wrist. The tablet signaled no response, the agent raising an eyebrow.
"What's going on here? People are only allowed to have one registration chip, so why are you looking for more on me?" He was suspicious, it's not common to see Tower agents to act so rashly in public.
"That's none of your concern. This investigation is part of a larger operation that is supported by Four routed through Tower AI. If you wish to lodge a complaint, you can register it through your companion AI or through your desktop UI." Before Tyler even realized she was finished her canned response, she was walking away.
Before he decided to try and get more information out of the Agent, his wrist buzzed, with his Companion AI buzzing "message arrived from the Trade union. It seems your rent is due for your trade desk."
Tyler sighed, of course rent was due.

Mobius
Far in the future, humans have thoroughly colonized space through the use of floating colonies and artificially replicating the Earth whenever possible. Most of these endeavors have gone well, with humanity spreading across the universe like the seeds of plants floating in the wind. Yet still there lurks the great mistake, the endless station of Mobius, a megastructure which hasn't ceased its building in over a century. Dante, a man living in this megastructure, is tasked with the recording of stories told by criminals, particularly those who travel between strata. One day, a prisoner is captured claiming to be Captain Pluto, an infamous criminal thought to be fictitious by most scholars. Even more curious, he claims to hail all the way from Stratum 56, a location so far away from Dante's Stratum 999 that it would take lifetimes to traverse such a distance. Dante must discern whether or not the story is false or true, and the longer he lets Captain Pluto speak, the more difficult his task becomes. *****Average chapter length will be 10k words give or take. This isn't a very serious story for me. I'm writing this to blow off steam. Updates will happen infrequently because of this, and it will most likely be unpolished unless I begin to take it more seriously.
