A little excerpt from a novel I'm writing.
For context,
Rex/dusk and Sam/Sketchy are teen vigilantes. their first event/mission thing was to raid a warehouse/lab they thought their friend was held captive in. They freed several people, friend was not found. during the fight, rex got a serum spilled on him. Later his house was raided by the gang that runs the lab and his parents killed. It was framed to look like a gasleak, as the house was burnt down after they broke the gas line for the stove, rusting it with a combination of vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and salt before actually puncturing it, then lighting it on fire from a distance using a flaming stick.
Rex ran into the woods, hid there to survive, and then showed up at Sam's house. Sam's dad is a doctor who apparently works for the gang, which is revealed later on and is also why Rex was found so fast and why Sam was fine.
Sam and Rex run off, and hop onto a cargo train to get away while being chased. Hitch hiking the way back, they encounter Rogue, an escaped experiment. Rogue is a reptilian humanoid btw. she gets run over, everyone exits the truck to go help her, and the trucker sees her and then drives off because f- no, he's not paid enough for this shit.
They head over to a bus station and rest there for the night, deciding to figure out what to do tomorrow, when Max is driving his sedan, sees Rex, Sam, and Rogue on the bus stop, and goes to investigate. They talk, max gives them a ride back, etc, and then everyone decides it's best to stay at max's house because his dad's always out of town or drunk and they have nowhere else to go.

June 10th.
We open up to Rex, sitting in the room of his old house. The window starts cracking as the wood in the room starts blackening, then bursting aflame. Gunshots are heard everywhere from every direction.
Rex wakes up in a cold sweat. He’s still in a sleeping bag in Max’s basement. He gets up and walks up the stairs.
Sam, Rogue, and Max are at the dining table, with eggs, bacon and toast set out for breakfast.
Rogue and Sam are talking with each other about something, they laugh a little. Max is busy eating.
Sam turns to Rex.
“Ah, Sleeping Beauty’s finally up”
Rex just stared at him with a tired, jaded expression apon his face.
“Rex? You good?”
“Fine.”
Rex sat down quietly and started eating breakfast.
