Prologue
Zane is special, no doubts there. However, only partially in the robot sense. Like a machine, he's able to mask himself away from others, calculate way faster than the human brain, remember like it's his second nature, and hold his breath for hours on end. And yet, some of the laws didn't apply to him.
He could feel deep emotions, vividly smell the burning of a lit candle, sense when something's off with a being, and his skin is real, so real, it's covering a titanium skeleton. But he's not a human.
A Nindroid, that's what they call him. A cross between courage and determination with metal and veils to hide it. He looked like them but he could feel he was not, he's always felt off.
He's Zane; The Inhuman Human.

Cole is weaker than he lets on, but not physically. He can lift cars, trains even with ease - and god, he's got an eight pack unlike the others and biceps as big as the moon. But emotionally? He doesn't do so well.
He can cave in on himself, he's sensitive. Underneath his outer shell, words hold more meaning to him than anything else in the world.
As an earth ninja. He's grounded, he feels every flow in every speck of dirt and he's strong. No one can break him.
He's Cole; the Immovable Boulder.
So why move now?
