Meanwhile the soul of our genius inventor flies through limbo only to be popped out an begin his life anew in an adventure that will go down in History...

In a dark alley far away from the lights of the city a young boy lay dead or a what appears to be wakes up badly beaten and barely alive. 'Where am I'. Gross pain stretches out from his body as he looks around at the trash filled alleyway confused and lost. "I was in my office then ... " a crashing of information surges into the young mans brain starting from his young life being taken care of by his grandfather as untalented unmotivated youth to where he dies after rescuing a girl from some gangsters 20 years of life submerged into the youths brain all at once almost causing his already teetering for life body to go into more intense pain.

"What was that " as the young man finally catches his breath he begins to look at his body the memory of the fight still surging in his head."that was me but I would never do something that foolish" proverbially shaking his head at the idea that he would pick a fight but soon he began to realize this was not his real body but someone else's his shock turned to fear as a million ideas lit his brain contemplating what has happen to him.

As he slowly got up hobbling from his injuries he pulled him self out of the alley and next to a store window to get a good look at his new body. Behind the injuries was a rough but handsom 20 year old kid with black short but messy hair sharp features with olive skin. His reflections showed a pair dashing grey eyes with sparks of blue couple with a deep blue rim wearing a bloodied and ruined black shirt at 180 cm tall and relatively in shape build with the right presentation an a bit more working out he would be a fantasy for most women in the world. Accepting reality that he was no longer Quinton Kane he realized the danger he was in and that if did not do something soon he would end up dead just like the previous owner of this body.

Hobbling toward the neon lights of a 52/365 store across the street he prayed the kid had at least some credits he could use.

As he walked in the shop keeper only gave him a glance signifying the rough area that they were in he immediately walked to the liquid nutrient section an picked up a D ranked fluid container and slurped it down. His body was struck with a burning and cooling sensation as his injuries began to slowly heal this process would continue for the next few days but at least he was out of the danger zone. These liquid nutrients or Energy fluids as they commonly called was one of Quinton's first invention these fluids could heal most external and internal injuries due to the Bio-programmed microbes that were contained in them at the higher ranks that could do a lot more but seeing as he was a 20 year old kid buying a D rank one was probably the most he could afford right now. As he dragged him self to the register and took out his data card he eyed the Black card with its transparent encryption chip and looked at the raised letters with the words Zel Blackwood imprinted on it. Quinton's new life was barely beginning...
