'Shit.' That was the only thing that I could think of as my back slid down the wall of the D.U.P. Suspect pin. 'Shit, shit, shit!' I repeated over and over again in my mind as I sat on the ground, my head resting on my arms. 'How could I have let this happen? How could I have let them catch me?!' It was true, I was a conduit, but that had never stopped me from crossing to the other Seattle districts before. Thanks to a faulty scanner (which I may or may not have had a hand in crashing), I was able to come and go as I pleased. But oh no, not today. Instead, the D.U.P. had other plans. If I hadn't been so careless I would have seen the D.U.P. installing a new scanner the night before. But here I am, a young conduit sitting in a cage with other "bio-terrorist" suspects, just waiting to be shipped off to Curdun Cay. A chill ran down my spine. 'No, I won't let them take me back! I will never step foot in that hell again!' I let out an exasperated sigh. I needed to come up with a plan and fast if I were to get out of here. I knew that with my powers, getting out of the cage was the easy part. It was getting away that worried me.

I was so focused on my thoughts that I didn't even notice the quiet thump of a guard hitting the ground. However, I was jolted out of my thoughts when the sound of gun shots penetrated the air. Looking up, all I could see was smoke and ash outside of the cage when suddenly, what had once been the door was thrown off of its hinges. I stood up, determined to make my escape but in a mad dash for freedom, several of my fellow prisoners pushed pass me and I fell back onto the cold ground.

As I sat on the ground recovering from my fall, another presence was revealed to me by an outstretched hand and a teasing voice. "Well, it seems to me that you have either taken a nasty fall or you're into being caged and stuff. But hey, I won't judge."

I looked up only for my green eyes to meet deep brown ones. Standing in front of me was a rather attractive young man around the same age as me. No, attractive wasn't the right word. He was downright sexy. He was tall with tan skin and even though he wasn't extremely muscular, I could tell that his body was well fit. He wore jeans with a black hoodie covering a plaid-red shirt. The hoodie itself was covered by a denim vest with several pins scattered across it. On one arm he wore a wrapped up chain while the other was adorned with the unique markings of a tattoo. His jet-black hair was mostly covered by his red beanie. It wasn't until my gaze reached the strikingly handsome features of his face that I noticed the cocky smirk that the man was giving me.

Realizing that I was staring I quickly averted my gaze in an attempt to hide my growing blush. He simply chuckled and one could easily hear the smirk in his voice. "Hey, it's all good. I don't bite....unless you want me to." He gestured for me to take his hand, and although I was a bit hesitant at first, I cautiously accepted.

Instantly, a sudden flash surged through my mind that was composed of mere glimpses of my past. Hastily, I pulled my hand back in a mixture of confusion and fear. The man simply looked at me in shock. "You're a conduit...." My eyes grew wide. It was almost a whisper but his simple statement was enough to send me into a panic. Not knowing what to do, I did the only thing that I could. I started to run.
