I've decided to actually properly finish this story, since I left it on an odd note. This is not a sequel to Flawed Reality, more of a multi-chapter epilogue. Enjoy.
"Is he awake? I think I see his eyelids twitching slightly." Two men in white uniforms are sitting in the back of a van, sitting on either side of a seemingly unconscious boy who is on the floor, clothed in a stray jacket.
The other man squints his eyes, trying to see if the boy was moving. "Nope, he's still out of it. What a time this guy has had eh? Broke out twice. Hopefully that jacket will keep him secured."
"He won't get out again Steve. His body can't handle anymore travel", says the first man confidentially. Steve gives a nervous laugh and takes off his glasses to clean them. "I guess you're right Norm. We'll have him out of our hands soon anyways, I think we're close."
Norm nods in agreement and gives the boy on the floor one last glance before pulling out his cellphone to make a call. "Hey. Babe. It's Norm. I'll be able to pick up the kids right after work, we're almost done with the drop-off."
"That's great honey! I'm still in the hair salon so I won't be home until 5. And we still have to go to Joe's surprise party at 7. Did you call a babysitter to watch over the kids?".
"No, I figured Danny could watch over 'em. He's old enough to watch his brothers".
"Are you sure honey? Danny is a teenager, and you know how teenagers like to throw parties while parents are gone."
"Danny isn't that kind of kid, Stacy. Besides we'll be home from the party before 10 anyways". While talking to his wife, Norm thinks he sees the boy on the floor kick his leg, but he shrugs it off and continues with his conversation.
"Okay Norm. If we come home to find our house in a wreck, don't blame me. Anyways, Rachel's calling me up, I've got to go. See you in a few."
"Bye", Norm says, and he hangs up the phone. Steve looks up from cleaning his glasses and smirks. "Wives. Gotta love them huh?".
Norm shrugs his shoulders and laughs, and begins to reply but is cut off by a loud moan. Both Norm and Steve look down to see the boy on the floor squirm violently. "Shit he's waking up! Get your taser ready!", yells Norm as he stands up in a defensive position holding a stun gun. Steve throws on his glasses sloppily and stands up as well, pulling out his stun gun.
Tao wakes up on the floor, to find himself in a stray jacket of some sort, with two Peacekeepers standing over him with giant guns in their hands. "What the hell? Where the hell am I?!", he yells.
The Peacekeepers say nothing. They're taking me back. Taking me back to prison. I don't want to go back! Tao tries to squirm out of the stray jacket, but it is of no use. "Ahhhhhhh!", he yells in frustration. He closes his eyes and focuses intensely, trying to muster up some of his power so he could break free. No such thing happens.
They sapped my powers again? Damn it!. Coming to a quick decision, Tao comes up with a plan to break free fast. In a flash, he twists his body so that both of his legs are pointing towards the Peacekeeper with the glasses, and he tries to aim a kick, but is shot before he can do anything. Pain shoots through Tao's body, and the intensity of the pain renders him unconscious.

"Phew. That was a close one, he almost kicked me in the family jewels!", Steve sighs as he puts his gun back in its holster and takes a seat.
Norm takes a seat, but continues to hold his taser.
"Yeah...this kid is a nut."
