Chapter 1 - YOU'RE FIRED!!

"What the fuck, let me through!!." A woman shouts at the cashier, trying to push past the line.

"Ma I'm doing someone else's, please wa-." The blonde cashier says with a flustered expression, but she is cut off.

"Hurry the fuck up, I ain't got all day!." A man from the back yells impatiently.

"Yes sir, give me a moment." The girl shouts, clearly overwhelmed as her hands move quickly over the register.

"The fuck is all that commotion?." A fat man sitting in his office mutters as he stands up and steps out.

"What is this line!." The fat man shouts when he sees only one employee handling the long queue.

"Sorry sir!, I'm trying my best!." The blonde girl shouts nervously.

"Hina!, where the hell is Takeru and Miyamura?." The man demands as the crowd slowly quiets down.

"E-, erm about that sir." Hina says, her eyes shifting away.

"Dude the models this time have bigger boobs." A black-haired boy says as he flips through a magazine inside the storeroom.

"Yeah, but the asses are nothing to write home about, don't they know ass is the reason for life." A blonde-haired boy says, taking a drag from his cigarette.

"Boobs are superior but whatever floats your boat Takeru." The black-haired boy says, turning another page.

"Oh shit, Miyamura!, it's an all rounder of boobs and ass!." Takeru says excitedly as Miyamura gets up to look.

"Damn, you're right, those are superb proportions." Miyamura says, analyzing the model like it's serious business.

"One day I'm going to bang a chick like this." Takeru says, pointing his cigarette toward the magazine.

"You sure can dude, you sure can." Miyamura laughs.

The storeroom door suddenly slams open.

"You Fucking Bastards!!."

Both boys freeze.

"Shit it's Big Boss!." Takeru says quickly as he and Miyamura shove the magazines behind their backs.

"I can see the fucking magazines!, do you think I pay you to look at fucking tits, while I have a store to run!!." Big Boss shouts, his face red with rage.

"Eh, boss we're sorry ok, we can go back now." Takeru says nervously.

"No, there's no more backs, you and this bastard Miyamura are fired!!!." Big Boss roars.

"You don't mean that big boss, We've said we're sorry, ok." Miyamura says, trying to stay calm.

"No, I'm done with your bullshit, especially you Miyamura, both of you get the fuck out!!."

The silence that follows makes it clear he isn't joking.

"I think he's serious dude." Takeru mutters.

"Damn, I was fired from this way too quick." Miyamura says as he drops his work attire on a shelf and walks out of the supermarket without looking back.

"I'm home." Miyamura says quietly as he removes his shoes.

"You're shift doesn't end now though, why are you back?." A man in glasses asks from the living room.

"I was fired, dad." Miyamura replies flatly.

"As usual, i shouldn't expect any better from you, didn't I tell you woman, didn't I tell you he will get fired again." His father says, looking toward his mother, who lowers her head in embarrassment.

Miyamura exhales slowly and begins walking upstairs.

"Fucking disgrace, why can't he be more like his brother." His father mutters.

Miyamura clenches his teeth but keeps walking.

He slams his bedroom door.

"Fuck them, Fuck all of them!!." He shouts as he throws himself onto his bed.

"Brother this, and brother that, I wish they'll all just die." Miyamura mutters bitterly as he switches on the TV.

"This is an important announcement from the NOIR colgomerate, we are here to inform the world that we've finally cracked the formula for interdimensional travel." A man in a white lab coat says on the screen.

"Huh?." Miyamura leans forward slightly, curiosity replacing anger.

"And now we need your help, we need brave civilians to come and experience it first hand."

The words hit differently.

"This is It!." Miyamura says, a grin slowly forming.

"Visits the website NOiR.com and stand a chance to get picked—A new wold awaits your exploration." The man on the TV smiles confidently as the infomercial ends.

Miyamura stares at the blank screen for a second.

"This is my escape, this is my opportunity from heaven." He says as he reaches for his phone.
