《Chances of Death: Seven Decks Book I》BK 2 - Chapter 33: Find Her
Advertisement
Director Keisha looked toward Toss Up and said, “Is someone following her?”
“Yes, Deck Director, I’ve situated someone at every exit to the arena,” replied Toss Up.
“Good! I want to find out about that spear,” replied Keisha as she was getting up and preparing to leave the arena. Director Keisha paused in thought and said to Toss Up, “Put someone on Captain Gru as well. I want to know his reaction when he learns the dungeon has moved.”
“Yes, Deck Director, I’ll…”
Toss Up’s reply was interrupted by Little Luck, “Captain Toss Up! Deck Director Keisha! I just received a quest you should know about.” Little Luck was a small woman in the back of the Stone Guild party that attended the tournament.
Toss Up noticed Deck Director Keisha looked interested in what Little Luck was going to say, but for Little Luck’s sake, he hoped it was important. Toss Up liked Little Luck’s work ethic and didn’t want the Deck Director making an example of her for not knowing her place. He looked over at the small athletic woman and said, “What’s the quest Little Luck?”
Little Luck’s eyes lost their focus as she read the Quest.

Little Luck then said, “I think I received the quest because I’m about the same height as the…”
Deck Director Keisha interrupted Little Luck, “Of course that’s the reason. Accept the quest and see if you can find out anything.”
Little Luck selected “A” accepting the quest and took off. She knew it was unlikely that she would find out anything, but she didn’t say anything before immediately following the Director’s orders.
Director Keisha then said to Toss Up, “With this distraction, there is no way our people will be able to figure out which one is the spear woman. Get an Elf over here to track her before her scent gets to old.”
Toss Up’s eyes’ widened at the cost of an elf tracker, and he almost commented on it, but wisely kept his thoughts to himself, and replied, “Yes, Deck Director!” and moved off to the side, activating his sound wave to try an hire an elf tracker with such ridiculous short notice.

Sector 27
It wasn't until June 3, 2101 that World War 4 ended. This was not a war that ended in peace treaties or truces; this war ended with disease. The atomic war caused plague and disease that crippled major countries. The generals and great leaders of the countries at war died from the radiation that penetrated every part of the globe. It was only then that humanity realized what they had done- what they had created. The first ever mutant was publicly executed the very day the war ended, and a new war began: the war against mutants. The surviving nation of Japan quickly rebuilt their country by dividing it into safe zones, or Sectors. There are currently 26 livable sectors in Japan; Sector 1 is the richest sector and the only sector that has completely rid itself of all radiation left over from the war. In fear against the threat of mutants, the once small section of the police force grew until it became the main police force in Japan. After all, humans shouldn't be blamed for crimes when the real threat to society is mutants. This police force that goes by their motto: Special Treatment Against Mutants (STAM) is comprised of agents that go about their work to capture and detain all mutants. Sector 26 is the poorest sector that humans can barely survive in; but there is one more part of Japan. This "dead zone" has such a high concentration of radiation that if a human were to step inside the barrier, they would die in mere moments. But within this dead zone, this 27th Sector, there lies a secret organization of mutants that fight against STAM and protect all mutants from their grasp. The Mutant Recovery and Protection Agency (MRPA) operates to hide mutants in society and allow them to live human lives. The only thing that stands in MRPA's way is STAM and its agents who hunt them down ruthlessly, so MRPA has their own set of skilled agents. And the battle rages on...
