I was one of the 100.A nuclear war was what killed everyone on earth. Now there was only the ark left, twelve space stations joined together to rebuild the population until we can travel back to the ground.Me? I'm y/n Kane. Daughter of the infamous Marcus Kane. I was always looked down at because of my family, yes it hurt, but I ignored all the comments people made. Until a couple months ago.If you were below 18 and did anything that disobeyed the rules on the Ark you'd get locked up into juvenile prison, or the sky box as we like to call it. At age 18 you get reviewed and you either get executed or the council lets you live out your life on the Ark. That's where I was, for what I did.I was sitting in my isolated cell, bouncing a bouncy ball up and down my wall when suddenly my cell bursts open and two guards walk in,"Prisoner 189 face the wall and put out your right arm."

Iron Marshmallows Origins: Last Train To Nowhere #4

Iron Marshmallows Origins: Last Train To Nowhere #4

112 4 14

This story touches on the heart of The Iron Marshmallows as a group of outcasts. It is an exercise in defining the group. Hopefully, parts of this will be incorporated in a more official storyline. Maybe it will be a stand-alone project.Being science-fantasy, perhaps I'm overthinking some things. For instance, Dierk Pinot's telekinesis is usually a weapon or shield, not a tool. It can be destructive, barely predictable, and hard to control. The details are usually window dressing.The Iron Marshmallow Gang is a looser, less paramilitary, and more problematic group than the Toy Soldiers. They're a surrogate, extended family: more of a voluntary tribe than a gang. They are not all superhuman. Or even sane. But if you need a crew to scrape happy-face decals off of doomsday devices...Then call somebody else!! Crazy ≠ Insane!! (Except for Dierk Pinot: dat bloke's bent! [Just saying.])Author's Note:Decades ago, I read an article in a newspaper insert about homeless and street children. One girl described children like herself as "iron marshmallows" because they're "hard on the outside but soft on the inside." Hmm. That sounds like a great name for some juvenile superheroes!Besides, The Toy Soldiers deserve a grittier counterpart who aren't exactly allies or rivals. Mutual survival being a great motivator...Let's agitate things, and then see who's left standing!…
