==Plot==
[There was orange static as blurred images of Alan, Alexis, Jessica, and Mason flashed. Devin suddenly jolted awake in a cold sweat, having been sleeping on a water bed in a room in the Nomaly house. Looking over, he saw Mason in a web hammock still asleep. He sighed and got off the bed before floating out the door and up the stairs. He ran a tentacle under the running faucet in the sink, then rubbed what water remained on his face to help him wake up, looking into the mirror at his Amperi form before placing on his ID mask to appear human.]
[Devin quietly stepped out of the house. Outside, the street lights were on and the sky was its deep before-dawn blue. He walked down the street away from the house, and eventually into the woods. About an hour later into the morning, he reached the treeline, seeing a fenced off airfield. He sighed, leaning against a tree as he pulled a plastic bag out of the pocket of his jacket, opening it up revealing it to hold a sandwich. As he ate, he watched the airplanes of the field take off, flying about and doing tricks in the air for a while, a faint smile coming across his face as he did.]
[Getting back to the house, he stepped in quietly, taking a quiet but deep breath. He took a step into the living room then froze, seeing Mason there.]
Mason: ...Whatcha up to?
Devin: ...I went to the airfield. I like watching the planes.
Mason: Do you do that often?
Devin: About once a month. I... I wanted to do something with planes. Commercial pilot, freight pilot, air force, whatever. That was the plan before... [removes ID mask to become Amperi] this.
Mason: Wow, you... actually had plans?
Devin: You seem surprised. Didn't you?
[Mason looked down at his hands.]
Mason: Not really. I think I was kind of lost, pretty much just go with the flow. As bad as it was to go through, I genuinely think this was a blessing in disguise. I've finally got something to do with my life.
Devin: That goes for one of us.
[The two remained there awkwardly for a moment.]
Devin: Do you, um... Mind not telling Alan about this?
Mason: Why's that?
Devin: First the Richard situation, then the Jessica one. With everything going on, I don't want him to feel more guilt for something he can't help.
Mason: I see. [nods] You got it.
Devin: Thanks.
[Devin phased through the floor, ending up in the basement room where he and Mason slept. He sat on his bed for a moment, looking at a phone on a shelf near the bed. He put his ID mask back on, and grabbed the phone. Turning it on, it revealed the lockscreen was a picture of Devin and his family prior to his transformation, and that the phone was on airplane mode. He pulled down the top menu, his thumb hovering over the airplane mode button. His thumb started shaking and a few tears formed in his eyes. He wiped them away before putting the phone back down and taking off the ID mask. He then laid back in the bed, letting out a deep sigh as he went back to sleep.]

*Devin Lorenzo
*Mason Babadzhanov
==Trivia==
*Devin was able to eat the sandwich with the ID mask on as it acted similarly to the Omnitrix in Outbreak. While it wouldn't grant him any special abilities of what he chose to look like, it did give him basic bodily functions.
