Audition fanfic from me..which I held off for weeks... This is the prologue to the story while it seems like it's a chapter. If it's good then I may continue it :x Personally I think it sucks ><
<div align="center">Prologue - Blueline</div>
<blockquote>A chilly evening swept through a small nameless town north of Tokyo where the lanterns lit the roads as if it was a festival. The kanji figures casted from the lanterns to honor the annual ritual for traditional purposes. The ritual was based off on another year where the higher gods watched over everyone and many people in this small town looked up to these gods all the time. In a town where you can’t really depend on anything or anyone to support you, you would have to strive for yourself it seems. However, the residents praise these “gods” for the sole reason that these gods give them all that the residents would need.
Little to be known is that the whole talk about faith and gods are nothing more than a ruse at best, provided that very few people in this town knows the real truth behind this relatively poor community. How they could easily gain food and clothing among other things are known by a handful of people. To those who know the truth however, are the ones who keep their mouths shut at any cost. The town’s well kept secret is very simplistic yet at the same time they are many parts to this secret.
A very notorious organization, known simply as International, is the sponsor of a hotspot located in Central Chiyoda. The hotspot is actually an underground club hidden right near the famous palace of Kokyo. The club is also simply referred to as Underground. What is so special about this place in particular is that it’s divided into specific districts. The most common district is the Blueline district where various dancers, each representing their specific residence in Japan, battle each other for purposes that only the dancers themselves have. It could be for street credibility, it could be for money, or it could be simply to dance. Never the less, illegal gambling and the smell of cigarettes are a common sight to see when in the Underground. However because the Blueline district is the most popular section out of the whole club, it’s also the cleanest area and ironically, smoking is prohibited.
Never the less, a teenager who is commonly considered as an outsider from this nameless town is the source of all of the riches that the town receives. The teenager, who goes by the name of Elios Kajima, is wildly considered to be one of the finest novices to ever emerge from the northern section of Tokyo yet no one ever knew where he came from. To the people outside of his town, he’s just some kid from Northern Tokyo with no dreams and no purpose in life, nothing more than a street punk. But to his close friends and to those who knows what he does for a living, Elios is considered to be the Robin Hood of Tokyo. Not only does he give the money that he wins in Blueline to his town, but also to the towns that are in a far worse state than his hometown. Although he had only been in the Underground for two weeks, his notoriety is nothing short from growing higher from every win that he gains. Even if he loses a dance-off, he’s known to show good sportsmanship about it. In an illegal place where everything and anything goes, you don’t see that too often.
However, there’s never a moment where Elios doesn’t stop to think about his life if he decided to go against his destiny. He wondered constantly if there was a way to just live life without feeling chained to the ground by his relatively poor background, or his past. While it’s true that the Underground and Blueline are places to lay off on the stress, it still seems like his life is moving in a pattern. A rather predictable pattern at that…</blockquote>
