When Aicho was 11 years old, Phillipe had come into the factory in order to observe the work being done. Aicho was working in the catwalks calibrating some pressure gauges. By this point in time, Aicho's father had died after being forced by phillipe along to enter the boiler room and retrieve his watch that he had dropped on the way out. Phillipe was in the boiler room observing the work being done, and the pressure in the machines had reached a critical level and everyone had to evacuate. Phillipe simply dropped everything and ran, not paying attention to who he obstructed in his fit of panic. in his haste, he dropped his watch on the ground. One of the machines burst because its pressure had gone beyond a critical level, and if Aicho's father hadn't been killed by the shrapnol, then the third degree burns he recieved over 98% of his body got to him shortly after. This was when Aicho was 3. Fast forward a bit now, back to when Aicho was 11 years of age. He had dropped his wrench by mistake, it fell and struck Phillipe below, and angered, he ordered Aicho down there. When he arrived, Phillipe struck him in the face. In the heat of the moment, Aicho shot a sawblade at him, grazing his cheek and hair, and the blade lodged into the wall with a deep heavy clunk, which made other sawblades sound like sheets of aluminum foil in comparison. Phillipe touched his cheek and looked at the blood on his fingers. He looked at the wall and pulled the blade out, and nearly dropped it, surprised by its weight. The metal was dark as the night sky. He handed it to an Industrialist. "Process this metal and tell me what it is," he said, "It's not the ordinary Industrial Steel." He then turned to Aicho and said, "You however can die for your act of treason just now. Even if you weren't successful, attacking your prince is punishable by death." He turned to Tyson, one of the only living decendents of the once-mighty tribe of brutes, and said "End him."

By now Aicho's mother had taken notice of this and ran to his side and said, "Please don't kill my son! Kill me instead!" *cinema sins says "mother begs to be killed in place of her child cliché" followed by a ding* "All right if you wish to die in his stead then I guess I can honor that decision, but I can't guarantee your son will live next time. Kill her instead, Tyson. Oh, and you better not try to pull one over on me and not kill her. I've seen how you have an eye for her." The prince left, and Tyson positioned his blade. "NO TYSON! Aicho shouted with tears in his eyes, "You can't kill her!" "It's okay, Aicho," she says, "Don't hold it against him." "Are you sure about your decision, Lillabeth?" Tyson asked Aicho's mother. "Yes, just get it over with." He swung the blade, as Aicho shouted uncontrollably. Aicho ran over to Tyson and shouted out of frustration, pounding on his arms and chest. Tyson, indifferent to Aicho striking him, simply looked away. Had a look of pain in his eyes, but not of physical trauma, and a tear welled in the corner of his eye, and he quickly wiped it away. After Aicho's father had died, Tyson became a father figure for Aicho. He had fond memories of setting out grease traps and stifling their laughs as Phillipe slipped on them, and sneaking Aicho outside to the river to go fishing. In fact if Tyson hadn't been there, then Aicho's mother probably would've died from the stress of having to raise her son and work her job non-stop and still pay expenses with the unreasonable salary she makes. On one of their most recent outings, they had viseted the Flowery Field and stole honey from the bees, and Aicho brought home flowers for his mother, which was one of the few things that had ever made her smile since her husband had died. That night the three of them had fresh wheat rolls with honey for dinner, with the rolls being a delicacy of sorts that only Tyson could provide for them. Tyson just has the unfortunate position of always getting stuck with Phillipe's dirty work. If he defected, then Phillipe would just have the Industrial Robots do the killing and peacekeeping, and if they took over for him, then the Fencers would have difficulty working with them, as even though they're robots, they still wouldn't be able to trust them, and then they'd all slowly lose their sanity not being able to trust anyone, and after going insane Phillipe would simply dispose of them. The thought of Phillipe having to run the whole factory and castle by himself sounds nice, but not when it rides on the extinction of all of the Fencers, which as a member of a tribe that's almost extinct himself, Tyson would never dream of doing something like that to the Fencers, so he feels that if he can just only have to kill maybe one or two in a year, then he can keep them from being expunged, and have the responsibility for their friends and families' deaths rest on his shoulders alone, so no one else, not even a machine, would have to bear this burden but him. On a side note, the worst part is that no matter who it is that he has to kill, he can't make exceptions for his friends just because he knows them. But how is he supposed to explain that to an 11 year old? "Aicho," he says, "This was out of my control. Your mother preferred it be this way, so the least we can do is honor her dying wish." Aicho quiets down, but doesn't say anything for a minute or two, perhaps to leave room to calm down. "I'm not mad at you, Tyson," He says, "I'm mad at Phillipe because if he didn't have you under his thumb this wouldn't have happened. I don't blame you for my mom's death." Tyson was glad to hear that he hadn't destroyed his fatherly bond with Aicho, and pulls Aicho towards him for a man hug.

==Chapter 2==
Due to the rules, regulations, and procedures of the Industrial Castle, Aicho was forced to finish a full day of work. He walked home, and through fence on the path to the Fencers' villiage outside of the castle, he could see the flowery field. He wished he could go there and just process all that had happened today, but he knew there was no way he could do that without Tyson with him. He looked to the other side of the Industrial Castle and saw Phillipe with an Industrialist... But something about that industrialist was off... It looked dark, at least compared to the other industrialists, yet Phillipe and the industrialist weren't in the shade of the castle. He seemed to be cursing at it, and telling it to move or something, but it was obviously off. He reached inside the back and grabbed the battery, presumably as if he were going to throw it out of frustration, but it was too heavy for him to carry and he fell flat on his face in the mud. Aicho rolls his eyes and tries not to think about it -- It was such a complete failure that it was even painful to Aicho.

Aicho walks into the village, and sees that it's the same as always. Children entertain themselves by playing in the mud, and adults rush about in order to scrounge a meal up for their family to eat their only meal of the day besides the one provided in the factory. Aicho entered his house and immediately saw the flowers he'd given to his just a few days ago. "I'm sad to see her go too," Tyson said from the entrance of the house, "She was the closest friend I've made since coming to the industrial castle." "Yeah, it's funny how Phillipe could take that bond that had been built up over 25 years and end it in an instant," Aicho said. "And orphan a child as a side effect," Tyson aded, "Now that I mention that, pack up your things." "I have nothing to pack," Aicho remarked, "And even if I did I have nowhere to go" "You do now," Tyson said picking up the jar with the flowers in it from the table, "You're coming with me. I can't leave a child to fend for himself, especially when his mother died at my hands." "PHILLIPE'S HANDS," Aicho corrected Tyson. "I had the choice to defy Phillipe. It would've created more severe problems in greater quantity in for others in the future, but I did have the choice." "You chose what causes the least amount of harm to the least amount of people though," Aicho pointed out. "Yes, I made the choice to bring as little people into it as possible, but now I have the choice to let an 11 year old boy fend for himself or take him in, so I'm making the choice that does the greatest amount of good." Aicho said, "And now I have something to take care of since I don't need this house anymore. I'll meet you at your place later." "Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

Aicho raced about the village trying to locate his friend Miriana, whom he simply calls Mira for short. Since she also was missing her father, she and her mother had to live in a smaller house in order to afford food for her younger siblings. Now that Aicho's moving in with Tyson, he's more than overjoyed to offer her family his old house for free, since it was larger than the one she currently lived in, and then she could sell her old house and make some extra cash. The two of them had been great friends since they were little (or at least littler than 11 years old if that's even possible), and together they worked extra hard to help pull their families through tough times. Aicho had gotten to the point where he started to recognize her as a possible lifetime companion, but she hadn't ever really considered it. Right when he was beginning to wonder if Phillipe had decided to execute her, they both ran into eachother in an alleyway. "Watch where you're going you moron!" She yelled. "I had something on my mind!" Aicho shouted louder. "So did I, but I could still see where I was going!" She retorted. Aicho had already decided he couldn't care less who was at fault, so he didn't make a comeback. "Oh by the way I heard that your mother was executed, so I wanted to say I'm sorry to hear about it." Mira said. "Speaking of that, I'm moving into Tyson's pad, so since I have no need for my old house, it's yours for the taking." Aicho said "Well thanks, I don't know how to thank you." Mira says. "No need, but maybe we could have your whole family come live in Tyson's house, and then we can sell both of our houses, and we can walk to and from the factory together every day." And then Aichomancer had to go to his next class so he stopped writing

"I'd love to do that," Mira replied, "But I think Tyson is taking his chances and maybe pulling a few strings by having you live with him, so I think my family would be more trouble than it's worth. I don't want to be a burden to him." Aicho wanted to argue against that but he knew she was right, so he just went with it, and said, "I guess I'll help you move your furniture into my old house then."

By the time they had finished moving the few tables, blankets, and chairs Mira's family owned, Aicho remembered that he had to meet Tyson at his home, so he said his goodbyes and ran over to meet him. By the time he arrived, Tyson was sitting on his porch with the vase of flowers on the railing. Aicho had never actually been to Tyson's house before, as this area was normally restricted to all but Tyson, Phillipe, and whatever industrialists happen to be attending to Phillipe at any given time. His house was the size of three of the larges houses back in the village, but it was made entirely out of industrial corrugated steel, with chrome details, and it was three stories tall, not including the attic. Aicho just stood there taking it all in, and Tyson, noticing Aicho's awe, said, "Aicho, if I could provide houses like this to the Fencers then I would, but I'm just not in a position to-" "Don't sweat it, Tyson," Aicho interrupted, "We all know that Phillipe is a little bitch." "Watch your mouth, son," Tyson said, "From whom did you learn to speak like that?" "From you." "But there's a time and place for everything, and this place which is normally restricted to fencers is one of the worst of all. What if there was an industrialist listening? They're not our enemies, not directly anyway; but phillipe can watch and listen to their audio and video feed over the day, as they're his walking surveilence system." "I'm sorry, I didn't think about how I could've jeprodized us," Aicho replied. Upon entering the house, it was furnished with amenities unheard of to feudal society, such as fully functioning steam-powered kitchen, and most of the devices, were all hydraulically operated, and he even had doors that opened and closed through steam power, a steam-powered elevator and he had plumbing going all throughout his house.<sup> </sup>Aicho went upstairs to find that he had the entire third floor to himself, and he even had a bed, not just a pathetic blanket, all to himself. Tyson had made an entire set of furniture for his room out of rock maple wood, with African cherry wood for the accents. He had even carved a wooden practice foil. "I made it clear to Phillipe that I wanted you to inherit this house if I were to ever die," Tyson said, "And he told me he'd honor that wish, but I'd just have to agree to any condition he may think up before I die. I didn't agree at first, but he then clarified that he had no intentions of making more than one condition, and he would only make a condition that's reasonable. He also said that if I die before he could think of a condition, then he wouldn't create one after my passing, as he wanted me to agree with it. That was long ago, and just the other day, he told me his condition." "And what might that be," Aicho said, "And why would he make such a bizarre agreement? Why wouldn't he just name a condition right then and there?" "Because he wasn't sure what he wanted out of it," Tyson said, "Not until now anyway." "Go on," Aicho said. "He said that the sawblade you conjured the other day was unlike normal saws. After having it processed, he found out it was made of Lead, rather than normal industrial steel. <sub>"Main character has unique and special powers no one else does cliché" '''*ding*'''</sub> On top of that it was a radioactive isotope of lead, which for some reason we know what that is for the convenience of the plot, and the DLC pack you're contained in. <sub>"Something occurs for convenience of the plot cliché" '''*ding*'''</sub> This is an undiscovered isotope though, and has a significantly shorter half-life than normal isotopes, and you're the only source of it known to mankind. <sub>"Antagonist needs something only the protagonist can provide cliché" '''*ding*'''</sub> "SHUT THE FUCK UP CINEMA SINS YOU'RE RUINING THE TENSTION! AND FOR THE RECORD, YOU'RE NAME ISN'T 'LITERATURE SINS,'" Aicho shouts <sub>"Okay" '''*ding*'''</sub> "Phillipe's condition," Tyson states, "Is that when I die, you'll become his next bodyguard. He noticed your power earlier when you shot the saw, and now that he's confirmed it, he only wants the best protecting him. This is the very reason he let you live today." The thought of this nearly drove Aicho to insanity right on the spot. He was going to become Phillipe's new lapdog, and he had no choice because he was in debt for his life.
