Synopsis:
Davood Nassur, a teenage Quraci immigrant, has developed meta-human powers following the detonation of the gene-bomb. He can levitate a few inches off the ground and deflect small objects. His sister Soraya works at LexCorp. One evening while Davood is delivering food to his sister, a dying man approaches them carrying a package. Armored flying men are in pursuit. The men chase Davood and his sister back into the building.
Inside, Davood opens the package and finds a belt inside. He puts on the belt. The armored men attack again and fire on Davood. He is able to deflect the bullets and escape into the air. Superman arrives on the scene to stop the men. Davood mistrusts Superman because of his actions in Qurac. He and his sister flee.
