Adam David III travels back to the countryside where he attends his
mother’s funeral in a local chapel. After the reception, his
father, Jayaf David, driving, tells him not to worry about a dream
that Adam is having about Satellite Intelligence Genetically and
Neurologically Advanced Life, but his grandfather, Adam David Senior,
in the passenger seat, is curious. As they are not saying any more,
Adam does something radical, as he downs the entire bottle of pills
that Dr. Mercury prescribed. Unable to make him throw up the large
dose of medicine, Jayaf steps on the gas and rushes Adam to the
hospital. Upon waking up a few days later, Adam encounters his
girlfriend, Tyana PanGaea, who just knew that he would pull through.
Adam recounts attending his own funeral, and having a vision of what
he has to do with his life. Soon after, S.I.G.N.A.L. is born, a new
post-grunge band with Adam David III on lead, playing his
grandfather’s Deus Axe guitar, and Ash Beniir L.R. Codec, the genius
behind all of the other sounds. They hit the Borealian concert
circuit and soon the word spreads that Adam David Senior’s grandson
is playing in their town. Adam, who is now more full of courage,
cannot, one night, control what he doesn’t understand is happening to
him, as he begins to generate electricity with his bare hands. Ash
walks into a glowing hotel room, where Adam cries for help. Ash tries
to assure him that all is well, despite the chaos stuff that binds
them between light and dark. Ash can control his powers. Adam
cannot. Finally, at a concert in Pacific City, Ash plays a trick on
Adam, as they reach out to each other and barely touch, causing
another electrical charge between them, and also causing the blackout
of the venue, and indeed the entire Pacific grid. This phenomenon
galvanizes S.I.G.N.A.L.’s rise.
