2537: Eos, Mars

"It's Sub Zero!"

"He's struck again!"

A group of guards rushed through the city streets, heading towards an ally way "we've got that Conduit scum this time!" One of them declared triumphantly. However when they got there, they saw something rather unexpected; an ice ladder leading up to the roof, and a young boy with the bottom of his shoe frozen to the ground, struggling to get free

When the boy saw the guards, he said "quick! He went to the roof! I'll be okay, but you can't let him get away!" Jumping at the urgency in the boy's voice, the guards rushed up the ladder to the roof in search of the fugitive; Sub Zero. Once they were all out of sight, the boy chuckled and the ice on his shoe disappeared "wow...that was [i]too[/i] easy. They were either so caught up in the moment, or never even considered the idea that the [i]monstrous[/i] Sub Zero could just be a kid." He walked over to a box and pulled out a bag that had been hidden inside "not a bad haul. I manged to get some new clothes. I [i]really[/i] need to remember to have a few decent outfits around. Can't let anyone suspect that I'm all on my own. If they knew that I was an orphan, then they'd take me away and might find out that I'm a Conduit, and then..." he shivered "I don't even want to know what happens next. You need to remember to be careful Grey" he said to himself

With his loot sack in hand, he went into a nearby manhole and into the sewer. Once he slid the manhole back into place, he landed and put a thin layer of ice on the nearby ground. Then he jumped up and added a pair of ice made skates to his shoes, and then proceeded to skate to his destination, while freezing the ground in front of him "I wonder if that's why it's so easy; they all think that Sub Zero is an adult, and a scary looking ninja by the sounds of it. So when they see me just walking around, no one thinks anything of it. Hmmmm...if that is true, then I'm going to need to find away to enforce that belief...maybe make people think that I have some...what were they-ah! Plasmids! I should find a way to make people think he has Plasmids. Maybe Augmentations and the force as well. You can have all those at the same time...right? Hmmm, definitely something to look into. Ah, here I am" having arrived at his destination, Grey got rid of the skates and climbed up the ladder into a rundown room; his home. It was the the part of the city that could be called the 'slums'. It was small, but it existed, and Grey had managed to find a room in one of the abandoned buildings that not only had a hole to the sewer in it, but also still had running water and electricity for some reason

"Alright, lets see here" he said to himself as he checked over his loot sack "food...soap...clothes. Yep, looks like I got everything. Good, that should last me for a few days" after putting the food away in the fridge (which looked like it was only barely working), he sat down on the (broken) sofa and turned on the (busted, but still working) TV "I wonder if there's anything good on"
