My brother is dying. There's no easy way for me to say that. Valo's regenerative abilities are dying off because he got stabbed with a needle that removes a Project's abilities. A needle that was meant for me. I've been looking for a cure ever since. And then one day... a wall appeared. I had no idea where it came from, no idea who built it. But as it appeared over night I couldn't help but be amazed by it. I didn't know why... but I prayed. I hoped that a cure would exist on the other side of the wall. Whoever built this wall had to have some pretty advanced technology.
So first I ran. I ran to the gates of my own territory. People shouted at me. Asking where I was going. Why I was running. I didn't know. Shinn grabbed my arm; Jason helped hold me from running off. Things were changing. Barker was dead. In his stead... there was John Strike, a man who claimed to have nothing but good intentions. For some reason I didn't believe that. The residents of the refugee camp at Yuy Manor wanted to know what this meant for them. Could they go back home? They wanted a leader. I didn't have answers for them. So the first change I got... I ran. I took my motorcycle and drove past the gates of Yuy Manor. I didn't care about the state of the world right now. I just wanted to save my brother.
"Shit. This is a big wall... I should have brought some water."
I stopped my motorcycle short of the wall. A clear area surrounded it. The wall itself was far too smooth for me to actually climb it. Shit... I had nothing to climb in that area to make it over. I fell to my knees. I always do this... I run in headfirst... I go in half-cocked with no plan of action. Dammit. How am I supposed to save Valo like this?
"GOD DAMMIT!"
I smashed my right fist on the ground with enough force to create a crater with a 10 meter diameter, with me at the epicenter.
"I'll have to go over it..."

The wall watched him curiously. What was this guys problem?
"You can try, but i'm not fond of climbers."

"..."
That wall... just spoke to me?
"...WHAT THE FUCK?!"
I jumped back and put my fists up defensively. Starting to turn my head from side to side, I scanned the area to try and search for the true location of the sound. After all. Walls can't really talk... Right?

The wall was silent, watching this strange little man as he danced about, trying to find her.

"Must have been the wind... or my head..."
It had been years since I last heard voices in my head. Stopping all of that substance abuse helped clear it up. I turned back to the wall. Placing a hand on it, I thought about climbing, but I remembered what my delusion said. Just from touching I could tell the wall was too strong for me to blow through. Not that was an option anyways, I was trying to make a good impression on the residents inside.
"Heh... I wish the Feather Cloak could really let me fly."

As Shugo touched it, he would feel a tingle.

"You're special aren't you. I'm not very good at sensing qi energies, but I'd say there's something about you that gives off a very strong aura."
I closed my eyes. Here I was talking to a wall. I tried to focus my qi energy into my hand. Not for offense, but more as an offering. Maybe if I fed this wall enough of my own energy it would open up a door for me?

A hand would clasp Shugo's and shake it hello.

Come on... just a little more. I could feel sweat pouring down my forehead. Giving up your QI energy isn't an easy task. Pretty draining. Especially for someone like me who has horrible control over his QI flow. But it paid off. My vision was blurred so I couldn't see, but a hand grasped mine and shook it. Weakly at first, I took the hand and firmed my grip as I could.
"I take it you found my offering acceptable then?"
I smirked a bit, still not quite able to make out who's hand I was shaking.

The hand would pause, then pull Shugo into the wall!
Shugo's vision would go black...then he would see light again as he was thrown out of the wall from thirty feet up!

Blacking out... Guess I gave too much QI... shit...
"SHIT!"
I felt myself falling from the sky. I quickly turned to face the ground as I fell. Pulling the edges of the Feather Cloak out I hoped it would catch enough air to slow me down even a little bit. As I closed into the ground, I let go of the Feather Cloak and landed with my feet firmly touching the ground. I let my body absorb the landing and bent my knees as I rolled forward to help take some of the shock. By the end of it, my right shoulder hurt like hell and my legs didn't want to stand back up. Was whoever controlled that wall trying to kill me? Or did I maybe get pulled inside of the wall. I looked around to see if my bike was there. If it was, I was definitely outside. If it wasn't, I was more than likely inside the wall.

Shugo was indeed outside the wall. Only now, sitting on his bike, was a big ass woman, around ten feet tall, eating noodles. She was staring at Shugo, and would gesture with her chop sticks. " You were in there for four hours. You get lost or something?" It was the same voice from earlier!

"What? I was out cold for 4 hous?! Dammit! I wasted all that time!"
I ran for the wall again. The pain in my arms and legs meant nothing. I was close to a cure. All I had to do was offer up my QI energy again and I would be accepted back within the walls. This time, I just had to keep conscious.
"Grahh..."
The second I tried offering up my QI my body gave out from under me and I fell on my ass. It seems that with my poor key control, I gave up the majority of my QI energy earlier and it hadn't regenerated enough yet.
"How... How can I get back in there..? I need to find a way to cure my brother."

"He got injected with a needle that was meant to kill me... Our... Father," I spoke the word with contempt, "experimented on us when we were young. He was trying to make super soldiers and weaponize QI energy. The government could get behind the idea of a Super Soldier with limitless ammo I guess."
I got to my feet slowly.
"The experimental procedure gave the both of us regenerative abilities. My brother has an extremely weak body. Without his regenerative abilities... his body is failing on himself. Even QI transfer won't work."
