Strain: Rebel's Rise

Enter The V.O.I.D

9:47 PM

The night was always somehow brighter than the daytime. 'Frontline' was so dull when the sun shone over the town. Even when it was colorful and vibrant, it was somewhat pale. Keyan and Manny though? They ruled the night. Especially at the Void. The Void was a secret club for teens. Mainly Casket High teens, but this was the place everyone in the City went to get either; High, Drunk, Fucked, Beaten up, and rarely but not never, killed. Why?

Because Teens with Superpowers is already a bad matchup. That's why the government and B.B.R.O. don't want kids outside using their powers. Yet, let's be real. they'd sneak out anyways. You know good and well, Kids don't listen.

The music bumped loud inside the club, playing Metal Rap, Rock, Hip hop, and all in between. This was some old music, but it was good still. To them at least. The kids danced around and stood around with smoke filling their lungs. Some popping pills like Blue Eyes and Blimps. The two most popular drugs known to man right now. They were hallucinogens that worked like LSD but everything was enhanced. Your heart rate, your hearing, your sight. You could feel everything, and I mean everything.

"Dawg, we should've invited Dustin! He would've loved this shit!" Manny screamed over the loud music, Keyan shrugged and shouted.

"Not gonna lie to ya', I haven't seen bro in days! He's alright?"

Manny nodded, "Yeah, He's out of town with Zay. Said they had something important to do!"

"Zane and Dustin? On a field trip together? Let's hope they both come back!" Kenyan jokes, they both laughed as they took sips out of their cups and got drunk. A few songs go by and Keyan. Soon enough, Manny noticed the girl from their class; Ash. She was friends with two guys who practically owned the club, and one girl they all shared the same class with Professor E. Manny shouted in Keyan's ear.

"Yo, I'm right back, aight cub?"

Keyan dabbed Manny up and soon the curious kid disappeared into the crowd, following where Ash went. The music grew faint as the door closed to a backroom that glowed red. It looked like a photography room. Kids looked back at Manny and then at each other laughing. Cups all in hand as they cheered, the group smiles

A tall lengthy kid walks up to Manny, with slick back hair and green eyes.

"Yo, fuck are you doing here? This is the VIP lounge."

Manny looked around and saw Ash, who was sipping out of a cup staring at him along with all the other kids.

"Shit, I just wanted to"

"Wanted to what? Sneak into our private area like you own some shit? What, the void isn't good enough for you? My fucking club not good enough for you??"

Manny pushed the guy out of his face, and the other kid well...he started glowing red-orange. Everyone chuckled and watched, sizzles and heat radiation could be felt coming from the green-eyed freak before he started breathing fire. Manny took cover screaming for his life.

"Shit, shit shit shit shit!"

Ash laughed it off with the others, and many stared at her disappointed.

Meanwhile...

"Dude, when I tell you. Manny and I used to get into some dumbass shit growing up. Like this one time, we broke into Blackwell High?! Shit was ridiculous.."

Kids around were softly laughing as the music was more chill and laid back.

"Man, I remember going to school with these two fools, and Zane. All three of them used to get into lots of fights. Keyan even got a scar on his nose back in the first grade!"
