Chiyo found something buzzing and vibrating on her face, interrupting her sleep. Swatting it away from her face, she heard the loud clunk of the offending object as it hit the floor with a thud. Realising what she had just done, she woke up instantly to check on the status of her phone, worried that she'd just gone and cracked her newest iPhone not even two weeks after getting it. Fortunately, the cover and tempered glass protection she had invested in had prevented any serious damage, and the glass remained in tact without any cracks. Now fully awake, she felt it time to see what was causing that constant buzzing all of a sudden. Scrolling through the notifications, she noticed that it was all social media related, mostly from Instagram and Facebook. There was alot of this Elite thing mentioned that she had no clue about, and the words The Failure seemed to come up over and over again. People seemed to referring to her as that, and Chiyo wanted to know why.

There was a reason she could think of, but it could it really be it? Did anyone know about her secret? She eventually came across a recently taken photo of a notice on the billboard near the festival entrance. There were a whole series of photos there, and she couldn't quite believe it, but she thought she saw her picture present among the rest. Could you still be half-asleep and imagining things? Slapping her cheeks, she moved to brush her teeth and wash-up before heading to the kitchen to make herself a hot chocolate. While many swore by a mug of hot morning coffee or tea, Chiyo liked none of them. Instead, she preferred hot cocoa herself. She swore that a good mug of chocolate on a cold day did wonders for her body and soul. She didn't know if Amelia was up already or not, but the messages to her were coming anyway.

While waiting for her friend to reply, Chiyo had already drained of all of the velvety warm brown beverage she loved so much. Unable to contain her curiosity any longer, she decided to dress proper, and go out to to the billboard in question to see the notice that had caught everyone's attention. As she approached, many in the crowd noticed her and began talking amongst themselves. She was pretty sure she heard the words 'failure' and 'elite failure' again. She could feel plenty of eyes on her, but she ignored them and pushed past the crowd to get to the front, coming face-to-face with the series of photos on the board. Chiyo recognised pretty much all of them, and true enough, both she and Amelia were there on the board. While she occupied the bottom far right, the other girl took the spot on the far left. Somehow or another, they had ended up catching MsFortune's eye and now all of them were Elites, whatever they was supposed to be.

FR-2164-SRH

Full Name:

Seo-Ra Han (Seora)

Age:

20 years old

ID Number:

FR-2164-SRH

Nationality:

South Korean

Appearance:

FR-2164-SRH is a female of South Korean origin, standing at 168cm and weighing 56 kg as of [VOID]. The subject has shoulder length straight and neat jet-black hair. She has expressive chocolate brown eyes, a heart-shaped face and fair, unblemished skin. Both FR-2164-SRH's ear lobes are neatly pierced for a single pair of earrings. Her figure closely resembles that of a typical pear body shape, with a well-defined waist, full hips and thighs, narrow shoulders, curvy bust and a rounded bottom. When in her fiery form, FR-2164-SRH is enveloped in flames, and her black hair ignites, turning reddish-orange like the rest of her body, burning and radiating heat for a considerable radius around her. Her eyes glow brightly, the pupils resembling burning embers.

Background:

FR-2164-SRH was born on 24th of December, [VOID] in Busan, South Korea. Her mother died of [VOID] when she was six, leaving the subject with her loud-mouthed and abusive father. FR-2164-SRH lived with her drunken father until she was seventeen. Subject lived an ordinary live and managed to remain out of sight and blend in with the masses until [VOID] when she was finally acquired by Anomalous Containment Staff. FR-2164-SRH was made known to us after subject's father began telling friends and neighbors that his daughter was a freak and a witch after he saw portions of her body on fire without being burnt. Alerted about a possible Code Red situation, Anomalous Containment Staff was sent to acquire the subject on [VOID] before something unfortunate could happen to her.

Unsurprisingly, subject put up little resistance. (See Acquisition) Subject received average overall education and accommodation in the orphanage, and upon further evaluation, FR-2164-SRH is known to be talented in languages, competent enough to be able to speak in fluent Korean, Mandarin Chinese and English. Subject maintains the insistence that she learnt the other two languages not of her own by herself, and as of [VOID], there are no further information available to dispute this. (Should there be new information available, please seek appropriate authority to amend subject's dossier. More details about the relevant authorities can be found in Addendum 1.)

Despite subject's abilities warranting a RED security threat level, FR-2164-SRH has been known to be extremely compliant, and has not shown any increased levels of aggression compared to other REDs. Subject's record of good behavior has allowed her certain privileges, but has been warned that these could be retracted anytime her behavior dips below what she has currently shown as a comfortable level of acceptance. Subject has constantly been unable to clarify when she first became aware of her abilities.

Powers:

Subject possesses usual pyrokinesis abilities of generating and sculpting from their inner energy. Subject also has the ability to mentally control ambient heat energy and the phyiscal ability to transform portions of the entirety of her body into a fiery flame form. Her cells in her body metabolises energy differently from other subjects and rearranges each molecules to allow her utilise and convert this energy to the low level fiery form (reddish, ~415 Celcius.) When aflame, the range of the flames extend up to 2-4 inches around her body. When pushed to her limits, she is able to raise the flame temperature, but this exerts a heavy toll on her health and body. At peak health and an average expediture of energy, the longest recorded time subject has managed to remain aflame was 14 hours before losing consciousness. Adapted to cope with the immense stress and pressure of this form, her body has evolved to become immune to fire & heat. It has also been recorded that subject's health plays a vital role in the duration of her form. Easily controlled and subdued by common fire extinguishing means (e.g water, fire-fighting foam), and the starvation of oxygen, subject is also unable to take the form if her body is wet or submerged in water.

Privileges:

• Square mirror on the wall
• Small bedside drawer
• Her favorite snacks -[VOID] and her favorite chocolates, [VOID]. Cups of hot chocolate upon request.
• A bookshelf containing roughly forty-five books, mostly a mix of Korean and English novels.
• Portable music player with head phones

Born in a very wealthy family in Seoul, Korea, Ruby wanted for nothing. It wasn't wrong to say that she was born with a silver spoon in a her mouth. She grew up in Korea, but after finishing high school, the family decided to move over to Baltham, Washington in the USA when her father made plans to expand his business overseas. All the whining, tantrums and complaints, she did were of no use, and all of her objections were ignored which left her a very unhappy girl. Adjusting to a new country with an entirely new culture was not easy. Fortunately, the blow was lessened by not having to cope with learning a new language as well, as English was something she grew up learning. To cope with homesickness, she opened up her own Youtube channel, where she talks about Korea, and explain its culture and music to those that are interested along with some gaming on the side. She does frequent vlogging after receiving great responses on her first couple of videos.

Ruby stands at 5 feet 6 inches and has a slender build. The first facial feature you’ll recognise of her are those highly distinctive chocolate brown eyes that she possess.

In times of happiness, darling little dents of delight appears on her youthful visage, the dimples ever present whenever any form of smile or grin makes itself known. Her hair is a lovely shade of soot black that complements her fair ivory skin very well. Although she occasionally wearing her chest-level hair down, Ruby usually wears her hair up in a ponytail or plaited down her front to allow her ease of movement in her daily activities. Clothing wise, she tends to prefer comfortable clothing, such as hoodies, blouses, and printed t-shirts. Pants, along with an occasional dress are also common attire.

While waiting for Jackson to arrive, she'd turned on the TV to check and see what was on. It just happened to be on the news channel, and there was a documentary on what live was like in North Korea which caught her attention, as like many others, she had always wandered what life was really like in the Northern party of Korea. All of a sudden, a line of flashing words appeared on the screen followed by a robotic narration. "We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this special report from Channel 5 News."

The flashing lights was then replaced by a scene of a rather familiar-looking home where a deadly shooting had occurred. As more footage of the home was revealed, Ruby realised why she found the house so familiar. It was a five minute walk from her home, and she usually passed by it on the way home each day. Two dead and two wounded. She wondered what had happened. They were in a relatively safe and peaceful neighbourhood that tended towards more of the upper middle to higher wealth class, and so crimes of these sort were definitely not common.

As soon as the news report ended, it was replaced with the same flashing words and robotic narration.

"We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming."

Her phone went off with a ping and she unlocked it to find a twitter notification from one of her followers. It showed the video of the shooting, and had everything the news report on the TV didn't, which was just about everything. The news only had the aftermath, while this was captured live, with the action and all that. It showed two officers fighting with a couple, and how despite all the beating that was done, the fighting did not stop. It was only after the couple was shot in the head, that all the fighting ended with the man and woman dead on the ground.

Checking Twitter, Ruby realised that she wasn't the only one who received the video, and it was not going viral, but it was trending on Twitter right now, gaining more retweets and comments by the minute. The sudden ring of the doorbell gave her a shock, still startled by the violence of the incident that had she'd just seen. Placing a hand over her heart to calm herself, she got up to check who was it at the door. Seeing Jackson's scruffy mug on the screen, she buzzed him open and opened the door for him.

"Jackson! Have you seen the video?!"

"Seen which video? I've been on my bike, not really a good time to be watching any video. Took me to get her longer than it should. Accident a couple of streets away, seems like something big happened."

"That's what I'm referring to! The video of that shooting! It's going viral on Twitter right now!"

Parking his bike. Jackson took out his phone and found the video on Twitter. It was virtually impossible to not find it at this point. It was simply everywhere! Ruby stared at him as he watched the video, wanting to see his reaction towards the shooting. He was just as mortified as she was. "I've never see anyone received such a beating and still continued on fighting like nothing happened. What's going on with our world?"

"Anyway, leave that aside. All the cycling made me really hungry. Let's go up and eat and get ready the stream!"

"Yeah, sure. It's all ready. Stream preparation's ready, although I might need to heat up the food first."

⌠𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐄 ╼ 𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐏𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐘𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐂 𝐒𝐔𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐋⌡

Sample Post

It was just like any other day for Ruby. Her parents were away, overseas like they always were, attending some business meeting or social networking event. It didn't really matter to her whichever it was. It didn't made any difference to her since she wasn't involved and they didn't even bother to tell her anyway. Growing up, the three of them rarely talked, and it was practically the housekeeper who raised her up. When she grew up, her parents had seen fit to get rid of the housekeeper as they moved into a penthouse apartment and Ruby felt more alone than ever.

She didn't seem to have many friends, and so she decided to start up a Youtube channel in a bid to cope with being alone all the time. Fortunately, that managed to turn out rather well for her, and she found herself a substantial amount of subscribers that found her content interesting, and awaited her regular updates. Apart from her studies, maintaining her Youtube channel and interacting with her subscribers gave her a new purpose in life. A popular content on her channel was to Mukbang videos, where she stream herself eating her meals to whoever bothered to watch. She'd bought a variety of food this time around, from noodles, to burgers, fried chicken and even pizza. She was in the midst of preparing her stream, when she heard the familiar sound of the Super Mario theme song.

Searching for her phone, Ruby glanced at the screen to see an incoming call from one of her few friends, Jackson.

"Hey, what's up Jackson?"

"You doing anything right now?"

"I'm just about to begin streaming. It's dinner time."

"Wanna hang out? I've got an extra movie ticket. David bailed on me."

"I've already bought sixty dollars bought of food. Can't let all of this go to waste now, can I? Wanna come over and join me eating on stream?"

"Alright, I'll come over. Screw David, and screw this movie tickets. I'll be there in a bit. I won't be able to stay that long though. Parent's gone nuts. They gave us all a curfew after Michael got arrested two days ago for vandalising the police station."

"Wow, that sucks. What did he do?"

"The idiot tried to spray paint "Down with the Police" on the walls of the police station at night near the entrance. Said he was dared to. He was never the brightest, but I didn't think he was actually that dumb."

"Alright, See ya soon."

As soon as she hanged up the call, she began resuming the set-up and preparations, while she waited for Jackson to arrive. Knowing him, he'd be cycling over with the same old yellow bike she'd seen him use since high school. It was well worn with use, and she'd even offered to buy him a new one, but he declined the offer, saying that that his old one had sentimental value and character and was worth more than any brand new sparkling bike. It wouldn't be long now. Fifteen minutes or so. While she waited, Ruby decided to turn on the TV to see what was on.
