Angol
8 year old Kevin is three-quarters Raffe. His mother was designed using full alien Raffelom DNA, and his father was born a hybrid, part human, part Raffe-infused. On the planetoid Euphantius where his mother was a celebrated war hero and his father led the planetoid's programming corps, that wasn't any real concern. He was kept clear of any anti-Raffe sentiment.
But all that changed when the riots began. Paranoia reached critical levels with workers turning on one another and everyone turning on their Prime Minister. In the violence that ensued, Kevin was shot, and Sergeant Stil was given charge of getting him to medical. Most routes were blocked, so Sergeant Stil opted for a quick shuttle skip around the outer sphere.
Then Simon stepped into their shuttle before take-off, and their trajectory went askew.
Through a wormhole that took them far from Euphantius, family, friends, and anything familiar.
Spitting them out just beyond the Solar System.
Home to Earth where everyone, and everything, wants them dead.
Adding to his daze of confusion and loss, Kevin underwent a little change during transit. He's come out of the wormhole with a 12 year old body. If the pain of such a radical growth spurt doesn't kill him, the emotional cost and a five percent survival ratio might just do the trick!
