Ever since the first Mutate was discovered three years ago, more and more have been popping up. In the beginning, they would live as a normal part of society, occasionally helping normal citizens with tasks they couldn't do themselves. Most of them were well respected people. Others though, would team up and commit worse and worse crimes. Now, in 2023, almost all Mutates have teamed up and are now busy taking entire villages and sometimes small cities right off the map. plus, people's Mutates were now getting stranger and harder to believe. People were doing things like shoot fire or other crazy sci-fi stuff. Governments across the world have started to retaliate but that just made the violence worse. Our normal troops even armed with guns aren't even enough to take down the groups of now hundreds of mutates with only melee weapons.

You are one of the few who tries to hide your mutate and live a normal life. Your sixteen, and live alone with your twin sister. Life sucks. Everyday there is another "incident" you have to deal with because no one else will and the police are busy out in the field trying to contain rouge mutates. As far as you know, there are no other mutates in your area and that's just fine by you. It's hard enough taking care of normal criminals and you and your sister. Your sister doesn't help much in the way of money. Though you don't resent her for it; she studies day and night to get the best education she can so she can get a good job and be happy. Besides, school is what she enjoys and you want this for her. Originally she tried to help and get a job as well but you told her that you would take care of the budget and for her to study enough for both of them. That's exactly what she did. Every week she summarizes everything from last week and gives you a long lecture to keep you mostly up to date with school. She's a great teacher and she tests and grades you to school standards. you are getting grades on the low end of average, which is pretty good for a guy being homeschooled by his twin.

You just finished work for the day and was doing your rounds. You usually did three a day and you were currently on your last one. You tried to keep a low profile as you walked down the street. So far no one had realized that the criminals being captured was the doing of a mutate and you wanted to keep it that way. You heard a commotion around the corner in front of you. You look around and know you can't use you Mutate to get there quicker there were other people all around you.you started to speed up and quick-walked there instead. As you rounded the corner stopped, dumbfounded. A girl, around your age, with medium length black hair, and pale skin was standing there, back turned to you. On the ground were the five criminals who had been trying to break in to the store next to you. You shook your head, figuring she must be a mutate like you to have done this and quickly gathered you bearings. The five guys on the ground were wearing the most cartoon-style criminal outfits, with masks and white and black shirts. They would have looked like they were going trick-or-treating if not for the guns and knives each of them had on their belts. For some reason the street this had happened on was empty of other people, probably the work of the girl. Thinking of that you looked up at the girl to see her staring at you in shock or fear. You looked at her and noticed something strange; her eyes were a deep red. You made eye contact and instantly, she disappeared in a puff of black smoke.
