Background
Ash rained down from the skies of Puyallup. Mt. Rainier was particularly active this time of the year. The summer heat and the dry precipitation made the landscape barren and lifeless, save for the pedestrians walking the decaying streets of the barrens.
In one alleyway, a figure works on their next big piece of art. The walls dampen with wet paint. Freshly sprayed colors dot the side of the building. A protest to all things meta-racial hate. The figure hangs from their possum-like tail. She’s tall for your average woman standing at around 1.8 meters. Her silverish hair hangs low, almost to the ground as she hangs upside down. She deftly sprays paint over the digital stencil laid out in augmented reality. This was Jillian Strait. Street artist, professional musician, and one of a kind smooth talker.
This piece of art reminded her of where she came from. The rocket near at the Space and Rocket Center, the heat and humidity, the southern charm. Her story began in the CAS in Huntsville, Alabama. Now formally known as Rocket City and one of the biggest space programs in the Sixth World thanks to NASA.
Jill never knew her real parents. Someone supposedly left her at an orphanage in downtown. That’s when two kind souls adopted her. Roger and Joseph Strait wanted a kid, and the newborn Jill stole their hearts. Their home was stable and healthy. Roger was a Systems Engineer for NASA while his husband Joseph was a small time country music singer and band director of the University of Alabama in Huntsville’s wind ensemble. The two dads were fantastic parents; at least Jill thought so.
Then her fourth birthday came. With the arrival of Halley’s comet came the emergence of SURGE. Jill was one such individual who received the sudden genetic expression. She became somewhat Opossum-like. Her feet grew thumbs, her lower arms and legs grew grey fur, and out of her lower back sprouted a prehensile tail. The hours long process was extremely painful and traumatic for the four-year-old Jill.
The acclimation process was arduous for her and soon after, the nastiness of the social stigma reared its ugly head. Once people found out that she had changed, she was an instant outcast. Her kindergarten refused her attendance and kids her age wanted nothing to do with her. With no choice left, Joseph began homeschooling her, putting his career in music on the back-burner.
During her youth, she took special interest in country, rock, and jazz music. That wasn’t her only creative outlet, however. She got a case of the creative bug and began teaching herself art and painting as well. Joseph was the descendant of a well known country singer George Strait, so when Jill inherited her great grandpa’s acoustic guitar, it was the best day of her life.
