Friday, January 9th 2072. O600 Hours. Vancouver, Salish Shidhe Council
Deet Deet Deet Deet Deet Deet The automative alarm clock on your Novatech Airwave wakes you up at the designated time. The king-sized bed you find yourself adjusts itself to your personal settings, and compensated for your movements during the night. As a result you feel great. Your body feels rested and relaxed despite waking up early before dawn. You find yourself in the Pacific Northwest. In the city of Vancouver. During this time of year, the sun does not rise until 8 AM, and the it promptly sets around 5 PM. The windows outside have not been programed for a certain display, thus you get a view of the city. The sky is still dark. The streets below you are empty, save for a few joggers who resemble ants running in a straight line below you. The hotel you are staying at is a Hyatt Regency, in Downtown Vancouver, only a few blocks away from the financial district. The hotel is comprised of a bedroom, a living room, and a bathroom. There is a large trideo screen on the wall facing you. It is not on. Your hotel room is on the 27th floor. Outside you notice the adjacent buildings are much smaller in nature. Only the large corporate towers in a relatively minimal distance compare to the size of the Hyatt. Still in bed. A large augmented reality display pops right in front of you. The background and text settings are currently in blue. The display appears before you, like a personal movie, defying gravity by hovering just above the bed sheets. The voice of a male actor can be heard, as the commlink's automative voice speaks to you. <<"Good Morning Vera. Current outside temparture 12.77 C.">> The morning headlines read.
In Lagos, Nigeria, there have been 30 deaths attributed to VITASThe city is now estimated to have 50 million in its history related to various forms of malady. In Urban Brawl news...... <<Personal Settings>>
-The BMW 400GT you rented currently is parked in space number A22. -The Evening Gown you ordered from Vashon Island attire is ready for pickup. -You have a meeting with Mr. Johnson at 0800 hours at the Golden Griffin Restaurant and Dining at 0800 Hours. There is a highlighted Green Arrow pointing to the last message on this list. This is why you've come to Vancouver. This is a job one of your fixers described it as a job that he recommended you for. And something that could make you a hefty change of nuyen. |
