Darrien was filling out paperwork before he got off work at 2:30 when a 3 men came through his office door. One was a delivery man who had a package about the size of a medium sized book. The other 2 were bald men in suits. The delivery man came up to him and said "Can you sign off for this please?" The man winked at him. Darrien then said "Sure.", and did so. He took the package and set it down. He looked up. The delivery man was gone, but the 2 suits were still there. One was sitting in the corner. He said "What do you to need today?" The one standing reached into his suit and pulled out a file. He then said "We've been looking for you for some time, Darrien. You remember the huge explosion down south, right? How could you forget? It blew up over a quarter of the US!" He slammed the file on the table. The other stood up and said "We've need for you today, Darrien. We believe that you, at sometime in the future, may be able to stop this war. We're taking you in for questioning."
"No you're not." Darrien then said standing up. "You have no legal right to. You don't have the signed document required to take someone in. Besides, I've done nothing wrong, and you have no evidence against any crimes I've done. Which is, by the way, none. So if you don't mind leaving my office before I call security, that be great." He sat back down and started opening the package. The file on the table had his name on it, and the number 3.
"Fine the hard way then" They both said, as they reached into their suits and pulled out handguns. Darrien had only finished opening the package and looked inside when he realized they had drawn guns. Inside the package was a grenade, a book, a note, and a map of some sort. He pulled out the grenade and grabbed the file on the table and said "See ya". He pulled the pin and threw it as they started firing. The glass behind him shattered, and he jumped. He didn't even fall 20 feet before he landed on something. A hatch opened, in the middle of the air, and he heard "GET IN, NOW!!!!"
He did what he was told.

When Darrien climbed through the hatch and into the room on the other side, Pyro was there waiting for him. He was sitting on a chair connected to computers and monitors by lots of wires. He stood up, turned, and stopped. He put his hand out and said "I see a man fall out of a building, and I just happen to be in the neighborhood, and what do I do? I pull up right under him and save his ass from a gruesome death-by-falling accident. I'm Pyro, and I run this little junker right here. You are who, exactly?"
The room had about 12 others, all who seemed busy working on fixing broken parts of the room or using computers. "I'm sorry. I guess I should explain a few things. This is my ship. Just got it working last week. Although I needed a few others to help me drive it.... whatever. I was headed out to space, but it seems you need a ride. Where ya headed?"

"It seems I owe you my life, Pyro. I was going to head over to my friend Paul's house after work. I don't think I'm going back to work anytime soon since..." At that moment, a loud thumping noise was heard throughout the room. "... I may have made a mistake in throwing that grenade into my dad's company building. It wasn't structurally sound in the first place, what with all the duct tape, so I think that's where we should head to. He's got a few trick up his sleeve, and I'd like to get some things from his house. I heard he was out of town for a while, so I don't think he'll mind. It'd be better if he were there, and he might be, but knowing him he won't." He sat down, his back against the nearest wall, and started looking over the information in front of him. (The folder and the things in the box).

"Well I think I know where that is. Adrian, check for that man's address. I want to know where he is and what he's doing. Helmsman, get that address and get us there ASAP. We don't have much fuel left, and I'd rather not use my 'Personal Supply'. This'll take no more then 30 seconds." He was serious. In 25 seconds, the ship had taken off, flown 10 miles, and landed.
"There we go. Come on out. ADRIAN! LOWER THE DAMN CLOAK AND OPEN THE DAMN DOOR!!" Adrian hit 12 buttons on his keyboard, and a door opened up behind Darrien.
"Alright. Now that you're here, I've got to go. I'll see you later. Here, take this. It's a card. Just burn it, and I'll be right there." He threw a brown green colored card out the doorway that just opened, as Darrien rolled out with it. Pyro closed the door after he was out, and flew out to the stars.

After Darrien had brushed off his clothes and picked up all the things he dropped and the card, he realized he was standing outside Paul's house.
"That was rather quick," Darrien commented as he walked up to and knocked on the door.

Paul came to the door to the sound of knocking, and opening the door looked out to see Darrien. Paul asked "Dude what are you doing here, and why didn't you call first? You know how i feel like unexpected visitors. Ahh nevermind just come on in and explain what you did this time...."

Darrien stepped into Paul's house, and sat down on the nearest chair.
"Okay. I was at work adding to my quantum computer theory when 2 suits and a delivery guy entered my office. I signed off for the package the delivery man was holding, and the guy left. The 2 suits started harassing me, and eventually they drew guns. As this happened, I opened the package and there, in that box, was a grenade, and everything I hold in my hand. I threw the grenade. Now, those suits are probably dead, my office is destroyed, and I got flown here by a man I've never met before, who left as unexpectedly as he entered. I'm here, I'm alive, and.... I'm not feeling so hot. It feels like my nails are cutting through my skin.... I don't.... feel... "
Darrien started convulsing on the floor, and his eyes started changing colors. His nails grew into strange, hook shapes, and his skin started to crystallize. His hair became a gilded silver, and then, after this 3 minute process subsided, he passed out.

Paul looking down on Darien, takes a step forward and procedes to kick him and say "Is it dead?" repeatedly. After a dozen or so repetitions of this Paul picks up Darrien, noticing some extra weight, and carries him downstairs into the basement, Paul then throws a allready warm blanket over Darien hooks up an IV to keep him hydrated, and turns on his computer and starts checking who is on Facebook.
