David woke with the same wish he had every morning for over a year now. He wished he could wake up with the same Nymphs floating over him as when he discovered his powers. But every morning he was let down. No faint purple lights or soft whale noises. Only a cold, grey cell and the orange suit he had to wear.

A guard approached his cell. "has it been a week already?" David thought out loud. The guard said his usual lines with the emphasis on 'monster'. David never thought of himself as a monster. He was human. He looked human. He couldn't be a monster. He didn't have a disformed body or anything traditional monsters would have. On the other hand. He wasn't a child anymore.

When he was escorted through the hallway but his mind was somewhere else. More and more David found himself in his own memories. He remembered the first time he saw the Nymphs. He remembered the first time he lifted a pen. He remembered showing his classmates what he could do. He thought of himself as naive now. He should have kept it secret. Never the less it happened and he was captured. Now, after a year being powerless he desired nothing more than to rip of the bracelet and use his powers once more. But that would mean his dead.

Eventually he reached the community room. He was seemingly second from entering. The other person was Payne. He liked him somehow, althrough he didn't really know him. He just liked everyone with a power. Slowly he walked up to the corner with the camera, not noticing that it was deactivated. "Hi." he said with a smile. "You must be Payne?" he said causious. Just to be sure. What if it wasn't Payne?
