The city of darker light (part 2)

"What happened to you Junior" His mom sat on the end of his bed and related those words in a sad melodic tone. She had been worried about him lately -and now the marked had proven her right. He laid their on his stomach with the sheets barely reaching his back, he laid their not wanting to face his mother. He did not want to hear her speech. He loved her but she like most of the nation had fallen powerless and disenchanted with the government and the constant watch of the CDL. He didn't want to hear that he shouldn't be involved in the opposition party. He didn't want to care about the fact that he was spared and could have easily been killed by CDL. He wanted to believe that one day he could change the world. But here his mother was trying to knock his dreams down with reality.
"Junior, -you've been asleep for three weeks, what the hell did you do. Three marks Junior Three, until they kill you. Don't you care about me about your future?"
Junior gets up shirtless but still wearing his jeans from outside he pulls out a red sweater and a t-shirt. He looks around for his medallion. "Wheres my chain Ma"
"Chain -what chain, where are you going?" Gotta go you said it's been three weeks so that means its Sunday, the meetings are on Sundays" He searches around and takes up his phone from under his pillow. "Here" She pulls the medallion from her pocket " I had to tell CDL that your father name was Toppy, they let me keep the chain... -why are you doing this"
He looks at her then at his phone and maybe he would have explained if he had the time but the meeting started at five and he to go.........

The city of darker light (part 1)

The flashes were an everyday part of CDL. No one went to bed until they had at least three hours of flashes. It was a common place of enjoyment for everyone. But it simply wasn't enough for Yunice. There was a saying in the nation 350 flashes a day keeps the pain away. Yunice remembered the saying as she zapped a shot of anetka in her arm. The drug was more than instant gratification it was a chance to remember him. Anetka could take you anywhere sometimes bad sometimes good but it was worth the chance if she could see Hector again.
"You have the power to be free, if you follow me I can lead you to the fate of the bright future of Nation, The ony way to attain prosperity is to get rid of the enemy of progession" Junior posted the flyer up on the board. It was a chance to earn a little money from TOP. The security guard walked up behind him. Her pale skin and grey eyes pierced at him. Though her stocky body and folded arms demanded respect -or at least attention, He ignored her energy and kept his back to her.
"Take em' down" she insisted
He defiantly keeped his back to her though he knew the consequences of messing with the CDL authority...
