Tim walked down the street, heading towards his favorite falafel joint on 5th and Thirds. He turns to 5th Street, and saw the entire block was on fire. 
 `` Awww. Really feeling like some falafel. Well, next stop, home!'' 
 Tim strolled towards his abode, making sure not to stain his new shoes in the debris left by the most recent looting spree. Tim came up to his apartment, and saw it was standing today. `` Yes! Third day running!'' Tim said as he walked in. The new bullet holes added charm, he thought. He entered his room, and started scavenging for whatever he could find. It was probably Alexi that got him this time, since the floorboards were pried up in some places. 
 Tim sighed, and started sweeping up the shattered china and bullets, and dumped them in his disposal. Tim was feeling good after his day. His house was intact after the daily VirtuaCrime reset, and he got some great hot buns from the bakery until Tomas blew it up. Afterwords, he logged a half day at the mail office before someone drove a stolen car into the building. 
 
 Lindsey Collins booted up her VirtuaCrime surveillance software, and started searching for anyone who could be defined in the loosest terms, as `` sane''. The VirtuaCrime program had shown almost no success so far, and a month longer with no results, and the program wold be iced. Then she saw him. Tim Jenkins, living the life of a sane, balanced citizen as much as someone could in VirtuaCrime. She called her superiors, and told them the news. However, she neglected to scan his records, as was uniform, too excited with her find. 
 The awakening was a silent ceremony, and all the officers hoped for success. Slowly, the pod opened, dispensing Tim into the real world. He looked around, at the people waiting for the first word to come out of his mouth. But what he did shocked them even more. He lunged for the nearest person, and in their shock, no one moved. 
 As Tim left the room, shifting the door behind him, Lindsey Collins's screen glowed, a few words glowing. 
 
 Tim Jenkins, 28 Years Old, in the system for 6 years. Crime: Murder. Charmingly deceptive, he had gotten away with a murder thanks to his innocent seeming persona. 
 
 That murder soon became half a dozen, the next dozen, then more. Tim was on the loose.
