Dawn Station - Sector Nine City, Level 4 - Origin Medical Wholesalers - Late Afternoon/Early Evening
The simulated sun in the sky had long since dipped below the massive spires towering high overhead, obscured by the crisscrossing checkerboard of elevated streets winding every which way through the megalithic cityscape, and long shadows were stretching over the pavement and girders amid the waxing light from the streetlamps starting to come on. It was a cool day, with a brisk breeze rustling through the buildings that tousled hair and fluttered coats lightly, although its whispering sound was completely drowned out by the whoosh and thrum of traffic, like blood pumping through the city's arteries and veins, carrying its citizens here and there as they went about their daily routines.
Storefronts crammed in like market screamers jammed shoulder to shoulder lined both sides of the streets, garishly calling for the attention of any passerby, inviting them to come in and sample what they had to sell, but amongst the flashy window dressings and bright lights a comparatively simple green-and-white decorated building facade stood serenely amidst the chaos, maintaining an aura of dignity and grace between a small sidewalk cafe and, on the other side of a narrow ramp connecting to the street that presumably led down to some kind of garage or delivery loading dock, a movie theater. A simple sign over the glass double doors read, in plain block print, "Origin Medical Wholesalers, Inc."
Up the road from the establishment, a light truck weaved its way through the traffic, slowing as it approached. As luck would have it, two parallel parking spaces were open less than half a block away from the front entrance for it to take advantage of.
