Radioactive Trenches

Picture this. You are a convicted criminal, thrown in the most secure prison in the world for something you didn't do. How would you feel? Angry would be an understatement. Wouldn't you want to break out, to cause trouble at least? This is Charlie's life. He's determined to get back to his old home in the City, performing complex magic tricks for easy money. But what he doesn't realize is maybe a life digging trenches is safer than the outside world... Because everyone knows there is no such thing as magic in the apocalypse. (Inspired by the song Radioactive by Imagine Dragons)
