Manhattan, New York. Mission briefing room of the Department of Supernatural Power Order Regulation and Crime Suppression.
Raven, dressed in a white women's suit, with red hair and blue skin and a pair of white-framed glasses of uncertain prescription, shifted with a flash into a frail young man with mismatched red and blue eyes and grayish-white, dry hair that was clearly the result of malnutrition.
He had gaunt cheeks, pale skin, an average build, and wore a plaid shirt and jeans, looking like a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old high school student.
"Jason Stryker. Male, approximately seventeen years old. A second-year student at Orem High School in Louisville, Kentucky. His family and personal circumstances are unknown. The Kentucky mutant affairs agents only managed to send back this Polaroid and his name."
Raven turned around in front of Steve and Peggy, displaying the young man's appearance. Maintaining Jason Stryker's form, she propped her chin on a thin arm and pondered aloud.
"Centered on a low-rent apartment building in the outskirts of Louisville, residents in parts of the surrounding two streets have remained indoors for several days without stepping outside. The streets are eerily silent and deserted."
Peggy handed over her own summary of the incident and continued where Raven left off.
"The earliest report came from a police officer responsible for maintaining order in that area, but before long, even the entire precinct became unreachable. Anyone who approached that apartment building never came back out."
"After the Louisville branch of the state's supernatural incident response department noticed the anomaly, it sent several agents to investigate over the following days. In the end, only a Delta-class evolver with weak psychic powers returned with this young man's photo and name. He then fell into a coma and still hasn't woken up."
