Downtown - 7:06 P.M.

Leo cradles Francie to his chest as pandemonium rages out of control around them. A glass bottle smashes against the pavement at their feet. Four men gang up on one, cussing and kicking, taunting and teasing, breaking and bloodying.

“Still think all A-Os should be put in a box and gassed?” One man punctuates his words with a boot stomp to the shoulder. “Huh?”

Approaching sirens serrate through the distant air. A car has caught fire in the middle of the street. A woman holds up her fists and roars victory at the flames.

A squeal of tires.

The harsh sound of vulnerable flesh impacting with unforgiving metal.

A minivan sailing through the air directly at Leo and Francie.

Leo looks up as the vehicle’s shadow blankets them.

Instinct.

He throws a hand up and wraps a force field tight around the soaring minivan. A silver-blue outline surrounds the vehicle and it jerks to a stop as Leo grits his teeth, holding both the force field and the van in place several feet in the air.

The nearby crowd cowers and covers their heads.

Leo seems to realize what he’s done and dissolves the force field, dropping the van in a relatively clear spot on the street.

He looks down at Francie.

“You okay?”
