=== Chapter 21 ===
David partners with Megan on the mission to destroy Newcago's power plant. David uses a tensor to break through the outer wall. They plan to tunnel through the offices to stay out of the hallways to avoid the guards and security cameras, then leave explosives to cover up the tensor holes. They improvise their plan to steal energy cells by taking a different path to avoid civilian casualties. As they wait for an opportune moment to ride on top of an elevator, David confronts Megan about her constant criticism of his tendency to improvise since it seems to be a standard practice for the Reckoners and about her general negative attitude toward him, but she doesn't answer his questions. Cody tells them to scrap the plan after no elevator shows up, but David decides to improvise by using the tensors to make handholds so they can climb up the elevator shaft. As they climb, Megan reveals that she doesn't like how David changed the team dynamics of the Reckoners and that she wants to kill some Epics but not Steelheart due to the stability he brought to Newcago. Megan tells of how her home city, Portland, was turned into a wasteland and how she doesn't want that to happen in Newcago. As they climb, Cody alerts them to trouble, and one of the elevator doors opens above them, and two guards look inside the elevator shaft.
