Chapter 2: Floor Flee: Exit the slumbers

he wakes up inside one of the poor metal sheet houses and hears loud voices coming from outside, he takes a look between the metal sheets and watches them in their blue uniforms.

  peaveys, stationary peaveys, their work is to guard a designated part of the polyhedron, it may be a room or a corridor and will stay there watching for any problem.

He watches them for some time as they talk with the homeless people after they start moving towards a pile of trash, the peaveys sit down and the homeless start digging in the giant piles of trash as the peaveys keep shouting at them, the peavey in red the red suit whose name is Flea steps out of the house and walks towards the peaveys.

In an intimidating way he asks them what are they doing, but without looking both peaveys in blue clothes just ignored him and started throwing trash pieces to the homeless in a kind of game, Flea then steps up in front of them getting all of the trash pieces in his clothes and finally both peaveys in blue uniforms look him at the face, completely paralyzed both peaveys stare at the dirty red clothes of Flea and immediately know he isn't any peavey, he is a detective peavey.

Detective peaveys are so very special because of one simple reason, one that makes any criminal or civilian scared of them.

They are allowed to carry guns, the only entrance to the polyhedron has such an advanced technology it can even detect materials that could be used to craft a gun, not even gunpowder is allowed in the polyhedron, the only way they get it is by a direct tube that sends the bullets to the peavey base only accessible by detective peaveys, but not even them are allowed to use them in any circumstance since any damage done in the wrong part of the space ship can cause an accident similar to the red floor that's why most criminals and peaveys use weapons like knives, knuckle mittens or even swords.

Both peaveys in blue uniforms look down to his waist and stare at his 19 mm glock gun in his right pocket, and in the left a sword handle however there is no sword just the handle that has a strange hole in the pommel.

Both peaveys stand up and try explaining the situation in a calm manner, some seconds pass and after saying his prayers and kissing his upside down rosary Flea lands a punch right in the face of one of them as the other tries running away in fear, Flea stares at the homeless as if he was telling them to stop doing what those two ordered them to to.

The punched peavey takes advantage of this and runs away with the other peavey, Flea watches them untouched and starts running towards them, they end up in the gigantic incinerators after a long chase in which the peaveys shouted in fear and tried apologizing.

The sole detail of Flea having a gun was scary enough for them to beg for their lives as a high ranked like him could fire at them anytime, in the incinerator there is a line of trash in the center moving to the sides where a kind of lava is waiting to burn them as the smoke goes up through some tubes that reuse the carbon dioxide and the water vapor released from this.

They end up in the central line and the two peaveys get cornered, however with all the gasses in the air a single bullet could cause an explosion so Flea would not be able to use his gun, both peaveys in serious faces told Flea right to the face they had no other option but to kill him.

Flea stopped and didn't even bother to say a word or draw his handle, he just looked at the trash in the ground and picked up a box of cigarettes that was in the pile of trash, and as he smiles and says.

-Just as i like them cigarettes, 100% Jasmine 

  then he took a cigarette and using a burning pile of trash lighted it up and started smoking it as he grabbed his upside down rosary with his right hand, one the other peaveys unsheathe a big knife while the other had a fighting stance and the peavey with the knife runned towards Flea trying to attack him.

He waited there and grabbed the peaveys knife with his left hand, cutting his black gloves showing his new prosthesis, he then threw the knife into the fire well and kicked him right in the stomach leaving him on the floor still grabbing his upside down rosary, the other one surrendered and Flea used his handcuffs to capture both of them and dragged them all the way back to where the homeless people were, once there Flea questioned what were they doing to the homeless people.

They said about 20 days ago while they were guarding a room used for recycling when they heard a noise come out of one of the machines, thinking it was a criminal or something else they tried entering the trash channel finding the place where all the homeless were living, they intimidated them and told made them search for engines or any valuable object in the trash for hours even days so that they could sell it later, even if they didn't need money, they just enjoyed the power they had among the harmless homeless people they were harassing.

Flea took their badges off them and threw them into a pile of trash, and unsheathed his gun.

One step at a time he got his gun right in front of their faces, waited and asked for forgiveness for the sins he was going to commit to hid upsidedown rosary.

And shot, right in the center of their legs as they started shouting in pain since it was their first time getting shot by a gun, Flea turned away and started walking to the exit after thanking the homeless for everything, they were his saviors, and asked them to let the two peaveys stay with them and leaved, the nearest channel to floor #1 was in the incinerators and he walked right where the fight happened last time, but now the incinerator entered in reserve energy mode in which the fire is much less than the last time and had a darker atmosphere.

As he got to the door of the channel the two peaveys somehow came running, using all of their mental strength to ignore their shot legs, they were still bleeding but the adrenaline kept them standing, they wanted to follow Flea, however he denied their request and told them he'd come back for them once he had finished his final task and ordered them to protect and help the homeless people living in the slumbers, the golden slumbers.

Golden slumbers END

Floor #1

As a detective his work is to investigate different cases, not to solve them, one of his mission is to investigate a mafia called the glass house located in multiple floors however their boss who has a direct contact with the peaveys is missing and Flea needs to find him and will search to the last inch of the more than 480 rooms inside the polyhedron to find him, the death of someone like the mafia boss could cause a war inside the polyhedron.

He steps into the trash channel and starts climbing until he sees neon lights on the other side of the trash tube as trash falls down to him, he opens a small door used for throwing trash and steps out the trash channel.

His clothes are completely destroyed so his first stop is the laundry and clothing reconstruction area and finding a place to stay in floor #1 called Space Dementia, full of futuristic advertising lights showing different kinds of products in screens all the way from the walls to pieces of the floor covered in screens used for advertising.

The bright colors blinds him as he spent too much time in the slumbers, wis wounds are completely healed up and he steps into the communal laundry and reconstruction area where there is a crowd of people waiting their turn to wash their clothes and reconstruct their broken belongings using special printers that can recreate any material they have already analyzed however it cant create anything weapon related, these machines similar to 3d printers are the reason so many people visit the space dementia everyday, all the machines are in lines and there is no room for the ultimate technology cylindrical washing machines so everyone just waits in the big wallways full of cigarette smoke, Flea finds a washing machine that is empty and puts all of his clothes except for his white shirt in wich he waits next to the technologically machine and watches the crowded hallway full of people going to their different destinations, everyone going somewhere different but still going somewhere, and starts praying once again, his clothes are ready so he dries them in a small machine that does this in just 10 seconds using the same heat from the incinerator on the trash channel.

There are also changing rooms next to the machines so he puts his red clothes back on and grabs his red hat, lights up a cigarette and walks down to Floor #1 Room #1 the "Way" Hotel.
