Skyfall: Chapter 1

12 am. Prison City, 2016. 10 years after the events of Operation Skyfall. Eli sat in his cold containment pod, reflecting. Only 16, Eli had been sentenced to life in prison. Protesting in Aldania was a big deal. The pod was metal, cold, and dark. A little glass window lived in the side of the pod, and outside Eli saw pods 13 and 14 being loaded into the Deployer. His pulse increased at that point. Knowing that his pod was going to be stuffed into that hellish cannon, and launched high over the city scared him half to death. He gulped, and his thoughts fell to Alicia. The girl of his dreams, the light of his life. She got nabbed too, but he didn't know where she was, or how she was sentenced. He was jolted from his thoughts as he felt the pod move. Giant automated arms pulled at the little metal capsule, and Eli heard the whirring loading mechanism of the Deployer. Eli felt himself fall into a deep sleep as sedative gas seeped into the pod. As Eli's vitals slowed, the Deployer randomized the drop coordinates, and with a thunder-blast, sent the pod hurling over the city.
