   I turned on the TV to watch as I ate my spaghetti. There was news of a giant flood happening in an area in Kentucky where a flood hasn't happened in years. My first thought was that a Hell Bound did it and the news thought that as well seeing that there is no evidence that the one thing that could have caused it normally, the breaking of the dam nearby, didn't happen. Then they went on to say how many people were injured and dead, surprisingly not that many by the way, and then started educating everyone and what they "know" about Hell Bound.
   The basic premise of what they "know" is that Hell Bound are a terrorist group that is trying to get back at the government or something like that. After I was done eating I walked over to my sink and started rinsing off my dishes so I can wash them tomorrow. "A terrorist group." I rolled my eyes. "We are just people trying to live our lives, that entire flooding was probably someone almost dying and discovering their power." Then I thought; hell I accidentally set an entire construction area on fire when I was almost buried alive. It's a long story, short version? Me and my friends were being stupid, I fell into a hole and one of my friends accidentally started pouring the dirt.
I turned off the faucet, turned and leaned on the countertop. "I wonder when they'll figure out that we are just people." I said outloud to myself.

   Over the next couple of weeks more news on hell bound was broadcasted to all of America with headlines like "HellBound Strike Again" and "HellBound attack takes five lives." The heat was growing on all HellBound and people were starting to suspect anyone who is not very social or attached to anything, unfortunately that description matches me. So I packed my bags and said "Goodbye Portland, hello Seattle."
