*The sun blazes, a lethal threat prompting FEMA's daytime quarantine. Visitors, deadly clones, erupt from the earth, burning buildings and killing townsfolk. Amidst the chaos, a firefighter answers the call. He and his crew are trapped in an inferno. He emerges alone, scarred and burning, yet alive. Most call it a miracle; he feels only torture. Homeless and shunned as the 'Disfigured Man,' he finds refuge with a kind young man. The house holds others, seeking survival. He finds a room shared with a weary young woman. Sitting at a distance, he waits, fearful of her scream.*
