Remy, a young, female Indo-American superhero in the near future, fights to free herself and her brother from lives battling in endless arena battles. These "Children of the Plague" were infected with a disease from outer space, now have super powers, and have been rounded up and tested on by the evil Valmount, a rich industry leader in the future.

Children of the Plague suffers from being a One-Shot. Robert Love's tale is entertaining in places, but much of the information needs to be fleshed out more.
