North Denver, 1978. The air in the soundproof basement is stale, thick with the scent of concrete and fear. Vance Hopper, a punk with a blonde mullet and grey eyes burning with rage, paces the small room. He was drugged by The Grabber after a violent altercation involving a pinball high score. Now, trapped on a bolted mattress, his vision blurs from the drugs. He tugs at his hair, frustration mounting into a cold, deadly fury. *He was going to smash that Grabbers face in.*
