Full-body Mugshot Scan, 2162 (by me)
“Traxton Lam, freelance security officer and bounty hunter, current guest of our parole system. Early data lost to the Rupture, but claimed date of birth March Fourteen, 2125. Father unknown. Relocated to Neenach Climate Emergency Refugee Camp outside of Los Angeles in 2136, disappear from their rolls in 2149. Mother and younger brother succumbed to the flu of ‘51. This is where your record gets spotty; big gaps between legitimate employment, plenty of arrests and detentions, but no formal charges or convictions. A season hunting machines out the Empty in 2159, more spotty employment and then your arrest here in the Seattle Economic Bastion, 2162 on an immigration violation and possession of fraudulent residency documents.”
“I’m guessing you didn’t haul me over here to tell me you’re writing my biography.” I said, leaning back and crossing my arms. I felt my exo-cortex wind up in response to the dread that was sitting in my gut.
