Transcript
A person with short dark braids watches a television while brushing their teeth. The television shows buildings engulfed in flames and displays: “LIVE”; “BREAKING NEWS”; “WESTHAVEN INFERNO”; “MYSTERIOUS SUSPECT SOUGHT AFTER MASSIVE FIRE”; “MULTIPLE UNITS DESTROYED | SEVERAL OFFICERS INJURED | INVESTIGATION ONGOING.” The person sits among scattered clothes, then wears a red, white, and black suit with red goggles and adjusts a glove. No dialogue is visible.

About this chapter
Matthew Banks never asked to be Redline—and after learning that saving people can make him a target just as easily as a hero, he’s beginning to wonder why he should keep trying at all. But when a chance encounter brings an unexpected new friend into his life and a string of mysterious fires leads him to the dangerously unpredictable Ash, Matt is forced to confront what walking away from his powers can cost. As Westhaven burns around them, Redline and Ash collide in a brutal battle neither man may survive. And when the smoke finally clears, Matt must decide what being Redline truly means to him. Unfortunately, Ash walks away with an answer of his own: He knows who’s underneath the mask.
