I'm getting an error on the last line
"root@htc_m8whl:/ # chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater
root@htc_m8whl:/ #
C:\Users\J>/data/local/tmp/firewater
The system cannot find the path specified."
last line tells me you are not in the adb shell anymore. since thats a response from windows are you sure you are not getting kicked out of adb shell.
I'm at a loss here.

supersu shows in its log that it allowed "shell"...when i type the cdmod command i am receiving no prompts on the phone screen. should i be?
your case IMO seems to be the system write protection.
Why don't you use the wp_mod.ko from flare.
this is the guide someone wrote on the htc m8 dev forum just to clarify
first reboot to recovery and mount system go to the file manager and you should've downloaded the module from the htc m8 forum here on xda.
copy the module to system/lib/modules and chmod 644
reboot
open up terminal and type su
then
insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko
to verify that is loaded type lsmod and see if is loaded.
last thing go to system/etc/ and find the file init.installrecovery.sh and add
insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko
to the end of the file save and exit and reboot.
now when you reboot and you open terminal and type lsmod the wp_mod should be loaded and it should say permanent.
now try fire and water again.
