After the Hong Kong Attack: A "Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam" Inspired Story (Part 2)

"Why stay stuck on this dump of a planet forever?"

(The message continues as you hunker down behind some rubble.)

You:

People are pointing fingers. Some say the Titans started it, others say Karaba—Honestly, who cares? They all fight.

Now the city’s locked down. "Off-Limits" signs everywhere, secret police lurking around every corner. Can’t even grab a bite without those goons breathing down your neck. Big deal!

But you know what, D? This whole mess got me thinking. Why the hell am I still here? Why stay stuck on this dump of a planet when there’s a whole universe out there?

I wanna head to space, like you! Just imagine: me, cruising through the stars, no cops, no rubble, none of this constant bullshit. Just freedom, man.

(You glance up at the sky, the late morning light piercing through the haze and rubble.)

Anyway, that’s all I got for now. Wish me luck, yeah? One day, I’ll catch up with you out there. Until then, stay sharp, Space Ronin!

(You hit send and stash your device. A patrol of secret police marches past, their boots echoing in the silence. With a smirk, you slip into the shadows, already planning your next move.)
