Voltage Rising

Dust City A place completely isolated from the rest of the world, a technologically advanced bastion where every corner is controlled by five different corporations. Among these five, one stands out as the strongest—Ark. The corporation that created the Cyphers, beings that are simultaneously more and less than humans, creatures that mock evolution itself with their existence. They propelled Ark to the top of the corporate ladder. But now, their glory days are over, and their past continues to haunt them. Jin, the first spark. A Cypher with control over electricity itself. His whole life, he was hunted for this power. His whole life was filled with the misery caused by the corporations, but now that he is free... He won’t be hiding any longer, and those who try to capture him will face the power of lightning head-on.

Talon nodded as they got up and rushed forward, searching for the survivor.

The hallways were identical to the ones Jin and Thirteen had broken into a few months ago. The design was a Genesis specialty—the interior walls made of white metal.

Jin could feel the electric currents flowing beneath the white walls, the cameras spaced five meters apart, each marked by a slowly beeping red light indicating they were active.

Touching the pristine white walls, he couldn't quite feel their sensation through his leather gloves, but he could sense his connection to the currents growing stronger.

'I'm too tired to control them.' The exhaustion was overwhelming, dulling his sensitivity to the currents.
