    "Okay, I will tell dad the great news." Melvin is very excited and darts out of the room to get home as quickly as he can.

    She twists a lock of hair in her fingers. “Er… Yeah. I just want to study all these worldviews… Figure out what is the answer to all of this, y’know?” She opens the stairwell doors, and the two walk down the hallways. “My mom is a nurse, so I’ve seen the effect death can have on people… I’m just searching for truth, I guess.”

    As Melvin goes through the hospital halls, he passes by a surly-looking high schooler favoring his shoulder.

    He arrives home after a while, finding his father sitting at the kitchen table with his face in his hands, a glass of scotch sitting on the table.

    “Hello, Melvin…” He mutters quietly.


    ---

    At the BCPD station, rookie cop John Adams tiredly stuffs his gear into his locker. It’s been a long day working the beat, what with the city’s gangs getting more aggressive and erratic in their outings.

    His partner, Shane Salazar, pulls an energy drink out of the community mini-fridge. Popping the tab, he takes a long gulp. “It’s crazy how brazen the gangs have gotten in the last few weeks. Muggings, turf wars, murders… It’s like the city is being turned upside down.”

    As they walk out of the locker room, an intercom blares.

    “Code 315, Code 315, there has been a report of arson on 12th and Corbin, any available units respond.”

    Shane shrugs and takes another sip. “’S not our problem.”

    "Dad, you'll never believe it. Mom is better. You need to go see her." Melvin blurts out at his father with vigor. He then thinks about the agreement that he made, to do something right.

    As the intercom blurted out the request for help, John closes his eyes for a few seconds and makes a decision. He runs back into the locker room and grabs his gear saying as he exits still putting them on, Sorry Shane, but it is. You do know we are still on the list of available units. tossing Shane his gear. You really do need a better combination than one, two, three, four. Also, this time I'll drive. he continues, walking to the squad car.

    Melvin's father stares at him for a long second, taking in his son's look of conviction. He suddenly bolts up, grabbing his suit jacket and his keys.

    "Watch over the house, I'll be back later."

    And he's out the door.

    Melvin sits cross-legged in the center of the room, a coin resting on his palm. As he focuses, the coin floats up into the air, bending and twisting to form new shapes. With one finger, he sends a bolt of electricity through it, pulling the coin apart to guide the lightning through the air, casting a purplish glow on the room.

    Breathing in and out slowly, he sends a stronger bolt of electricity out, which blasts the coin into numerous smaller droplets which float about the room. Surprised by the sudden shock, Melvin loses control of his powers, causing all of the metallic objects in the room to float and revolve around him.

    "She works as an ER nurse at the hospital downtown." Veronica explains.

    You come to the class room door. "Well... thanks." she says half-heartedly. "Do.... I was thinking... Maybe we could get coffee tomorrow? Or lunch?"

    She shrinks back on herself in nervousness.

    Necron:

    Gary makes it home unscathed, where his two little sisters run up and cling to him, giving him tight hugs. "Welcome back!" they cry happily. "How was the first day back? Didja see Theo and Wendy??"

    "WHAT!?!" Hajime's eyes go wide as he tries to absorb what gramps was saying. "Get somewhere safe, be there in a second."

    Slamming the phone back down, Haj sprinted out the door, barely remembering to close it behind him. This couldn't be happening. Not today. Sure, gangs were pretty bad in this part of town, but nobody targeted the shop. Nobody cared. And abducting Karasu? What was that about?

    Thoughts skipped around inside his head as he sprinted down the street. It was a half mile to the shop, and he could cover that without slowing. His martial arts training took over as he controlled his breathing and ran like he'd never run in his life. Most obstacles and people were dodged around if he could avoid them, if he couldn't go around them, they were shoved out of the way. He had to make sure his family was alright.

    Running down the streets, it doesn't take Hajime long to reach the shop. A firetruck and a few police cars have already arrived, but the shop is still burning. His grandparents are sitting outside the tentative perimeter, his grandmother weeping into her hands.

    Hajime ran over to his grandparents, breathing heavily from the run. At least the fire was contained. Wrapping his arms around grandma to try and comfort her, he looked at gramps. For half a second, he couldn't think of anything to say, then he managed to choke out,

    Actually, this class is at the end of the day, so that doesn't lend itself well to lunch :P I shall make things work for the greater good though.

    "After my math class and your English class, got it." she smiles. "thanks... Adam."

    She ducks into the classroom as more people come.

    Bladesmith edit: never mind, I got it down faster than I thought I could via mobile.
    His grandfather shakes his head numbly. "I- I don't really know. Your brother got here from school, then this gang of ruffians showed up... Had a weird look in their eyes, weird grins... One pulled out a Molotov cocktail and smashed it on the counter, lit everything on fire. In the chaos... They grabbed your brother and ran. *They could be anywhere by now. "

    Hajime wasn't quite sure what to say to that. That it would be alright? He didn't know that, and it was their shop that was burning. That he'd find whoever did this? How was he going to do that? He wasn't really familiar with the gangs around, except for their occasional appearances at school. It was all one great big hopeless mess. It sucked. Hardcore.

    But he couldn't say that, either. He couldn't give up that easily. He was only one dude, but someone was going to regret messing with his family.

    "Don't worry, grandma." He hugged her a little tighter. "It'll be alright. We'll find Karasu, and bring him home safe."

    As the family sits together commiserating, a police officer walks up to them.

    "I'm sorry, but we have no idea where they took the boy. They could be anywhere." The officer nervously fiddles with his hands and walks away. Hajime's grandmother moans and weeps.

    His grandfather turns to him. "Hajime.. You are young... But you must go out and find your brother. He is your flesh and blood. You must at least try."

    He pulls his cane over to himself, and twists the handle. With a click, he pulls out a thin, finely sharpened blade a few inches. "Take this, it's a family heirloom."

    Your patience is rewarded

    Long into the night, after Adam goes to sleep, he begins to dream...

    He stands alone atop a ruined skyscraper, looking out across the decayed husk that once was Bluesky City. Not far away a man sits dressed in black rags, his mouth stitched shut and blood seeping from one ruined eye. Adam begins to hear a thousand whispering voices, with only one loud enough to be heard, though only barely. He cannot move nor speak. "Adam... I've been waiting for you. You have been chosen. Chosen to bring chaos and to show the world the true nature of the cosmos. I gift you with the ability to let them see what you want them to see. After all, if they see it woth their eyes, then it must be true, mustn't it? Seeing is believing..."

    The man looks like he's laughing behind the stitches for a second before he looks up with his good eye and the whispering resumes, "Use it for personal gain, use it to run your city, use it however you see fit... but there will be others. This is a war and you are one of my soldiers. Some people will want to protect the world. Torment them and destroy them, let no one stand in your way"

    He rises from his position and glares, "Now I've wasted enough time here, begone." His hand extends unnaturally from his sleeve, alighting in unholy blessing upon Adam's brow.

    And the world goes dark.

    Adam shook awake suddenly, breathing heavily and sweating slightly. "Man, I'll have to add that to my list of more ****ed up dreams." He got up, and began his morning ritual for the day, unable to shake an eerie feeling of dread. Or was unable to, at least, until he thought about his 'date' with Veronica today. With that in mind, he headed off to class in a relatively good mood.
