Marcus Porter WIP

Helicopters, that was all he had remembered over the past three days. They were getting closer, he knew that, but they had not found him yet. He knew that he had to reach the next safe-house before they caught onto his trail. He quickly got up gathering up his pack, which he used as a makeshift pillow. Inside of his pack was some money, food, and a pistol with a flashlight attached to the barrel. All of these supplies he had replenished in the various safe-houses, in which he found help from others.
The others never asked him where he was going or why he was running, they all knew, Marcus Porter was a bit of a celebrity in the lower city. The lower city is the impoverished section of town aptly named for it was a large industrial sector with many shacks and rundown homes. It was a tightly packed maze-like area with narrow streets and dark alleys. The lower city held the highest crime rate of the city because the government often did not even bother entering. The whole city seemed to exist in a  constant state of sadness, which was only reiterated by the permeate cloud of smoke that hung over the city. This cloud caused the city to live in eternal darkness, creating a city which added to the city's notorious reputation. The cloud served another purpose, separating the lower city from the business sector. The business sector was far different. It held buildings that floated as if they were afraid of touching the dark cloud of the lower city. Everything was bright and crisp, with surfaces to reflect the sunlight. The business sector also was home to many large corporations but one in particular stood out from the rest, for it was the largest and it was also the controlling power. This corporation was known as BioHealth Inc. and it was the impromptu government which rose to power through various health services, for without medicine this world would fail, as their motto goes. The lower city had affectionately nicknamed them Hell Corp. for their harsh enforcement of the city, with their infamous shock troops. These shock troops have a reputation for bending the law and using their power for the “less than greater” good. It also happens that Marcus is on the run from them.
