The kindling ember

by protofanforever

our young protagonist Andrew had lived a normal life until he had gotten into a accident which activated his conduit gene he now is on the run wanting nothing with the D.U.P.S from what rumors he has heard about what they do to "bio-terrorist" he has decided to go into hiding so getting the city was his best bet of hiding(note the character having smoke wasn't my orginal idea)

1. from ashes comes a spark

My name is Andrew Thomas I live Curdun cay yes that Curdun cay filled with the bio-terrorist I have feared what could happen if they break out or worse someone breaks in but thankfully they raised the budget so that now our civilian homes are equipped with a DNA lock to only open to

the home owner and the authorities I'm 22 I carry a registered fire-arm a .357 revolver that is only used for my protection *heads down to my living room* I have my fridge stoves are working hopefully I won't have to fix them again I have a nice TV as well *my doorbell goes off* ah must the newspaper* I head outside and grabs the paper* thank you*heads back in and reads it* oh no a transport got destroyed carrying three bio-terrorists where did it say*rereads* salmon bay? That's very far from here I should still worry though*the stove starts messing up* ah stupid gas piping*head out to the backyard to see if I can fix it* here's that pipe now let's tighten it so that we can start working*tights the pipe so the gas is slowed coming in the home* ok there we go now's let's see what our problem is*checks the pipe over* looks to be a smack gas leak caused by the rain we have been having let's fix this *fills the crack then loosen so the gas can come in I accidently drop something causing a spark and BOOM goes up the place* ahhh*I look around * what the heck happened * I get up and is surrounded by ashes* noooo! My house * I head into the burning remains of home and grab what I can and get before the dups come or the place falls* ok I have my gun a few ammo boxes and some clothes to change into*I run away as I leave from the backyard I can faintly hear sirens coming* I'm not safe here at all I'm going to have to make my way to a place I'm not known in how's about that little fishing place down the road from here yeah that seems like my best bet *I start running towards the bridge* that separates us between the rest of the world scanners *I get up to one and there's a line* oh come on*I mumble underneath my breath looking towards one of the dup soldiers* just relax*I notice the line is moving and quickly catch with the rest of the line*I will be done and free*it's now my turn I step up to the scanner and I put my hand on the scanner and it reads clean and the gates open and I start walking* well that worked great for me another day of protection by our protectors
