It was an uncharacteristic night for a park that boasted some of the most beautiful arrangements in the city. Whereas people would expect it to be teeming with couples, lovers, and the occasional odd pair or two, the serene park had been more or less devoid of those kind of emotions. Instead there seemed to be a different kind of unease in the air that flitted about, devouring whatever sense of comfort and relaxation that the landscape could provide. The alluring aroma of flowers had also been replaced with the putrid stench of acrid smoke, acidic tang of alcohol, and the unclean clothes that had yet to be properly washed for a week or two. The serene and calming quiet of the night that had been accentuated by the continuous flow of the fountain in the centre was broken by the raucous laughter and obscene jokes being thrown about at each other.
Truly the main selling points of the park had been more or less diced apart in order to show quite the undisciplined spectacle. Several motorcycles were lined up along the grass, the rubber destroying the neatly trimmed and well cared foliage due to there not being enough space on the actual parking area that was nearby. Burnt cigarette butts could be found hanging about the brushes around the place, emitting smoke and swiftly deteriorating the health of the present plant life as well. Empty and busted cans of beer littered around the benches where several men and women were seen to be hanging out without so much as a care in the world. The people there had been living in their own world, treating the place as if it was only for their own whims to be used. Explicitives were being thrown about in the most unorthodox manner yet no one seemed to care.
Among the edges of the properly parked vehicles stood a rather distinguished motorcycle. Splashed with a black and charcoal grey paint scheme, the ride had practically sucked out the colour of everything near it. Leaning against it, clad in his signature black biker jacket, stood Vice with his own six now only two pack of beer being placed on top of some other bloke's cheap ass scooter. If he were to be honest, the Biker had really no purpose to be hanging around with this kind of crowd given that they didn't exactly give him any kind of edge over the populace but he reasoned out to himself that they'd have a use one way or another in the future. A few of the guys with him were busy with their own drinks and jokes that despite the silence that Vice showed them, they only took it in stride and had more or less gotten used to their little 'Blacky's' anti-social gimmick.
"Yuuuuoou Bllllaakeeeyy~! Why you so quieeeet all the time, huh?"
The slurred speech of one of the other bikers in the area hollered out as he hanged onto the shoulder of his more sober friend. The red eyed civilian just gave him an exasperated look before gazing towards said sober friend.
"Jack really needs to get his tolerance up---that's what, his fourth bottle and he's already wasted?"
Vice shot as the sober friend just grunted at it. Dragging the wasted Jack towards one of the benches to drop him off, the duo then disappeared to wherever Vice didn't give a damn about. Today was another filler night, where it used to be something to change up the routine back in his University days, now just seemed to be painfully dull as compared to those times he'd go out to explore the outer city. Taking a long swig of the beer in his hands, the youth turned his head to look over the entrance of the park and sorely wished for something--anything to freaking happen tonight. The boorish atmosphere. Ugh.
Hell, he'd take the police coming up to break the little party if it meant something would break out.
