Immune

A Sci-fi/dystopia retelling of Robin Hood, told from the point of view of a kick-ass feminist Lady Marion.

Aya is Immune. To drugs. To alcohol. To the nefarious plague sweeping across the country. It has always been like that.
So when the train she is on is attacked by a mysterious thief, someone who knocks out the entire cart using the sprinklersystem, someone who only seems to take from those who can afford it, she is awake and ready to ruin his flawless plan.

Robin has been alone as long as he can remember. In fact, he shouldn't even exist according to the system. That is the same system whose flaws he exploits to make a living though, so he knows very well how easily someone can go around it.
Armed with a chemical mix of chloroform, valium and a timed adrenaline jolt, he steals from entire buildings while their occupants sleep soundly.
Until that train. His concotion has never failed before, and he is beyond surprised to find everyone in the cart asleep, apart from a lithe girl with suspicious eyes.

This is the start of an unlikely alliance between an enigma and a ghost, in a society where neither should be possible.
