42 - What's Wrong with Kyle?


“You think those ugly cusses from the restaurant are somehow related to them?”
“It’s possible. Both groups looked human enough, but both possessed abilities that went beyond what anyone could achieve naturally.”
“Did we ever get a blood sample from the Lab Assistants to compare?”
“No, unfortunately, but maybe … ” My hands begin flying over the keyboard performing dozens of searches looking for anything that could connect the two.
“What’s Kyle so worked up about?” René asks thru a mouthful of crunchy popped kernels.
“What do you mean?”
“He’s going after those training robots like they just killed his mother. I’ve never seen him so worked up. Do you think nearly losing to those ugly cusses freaked him out?”
“I can’t imagine it would.” I turn to see what René is talking about and get a little scared. There is such intensity in Kyle’s eyes like I’ve never seen him have before. He looks scared, angry, and blood thirsty all at once. And the pounding he’s giving those training bots … they’ll be beyond repair. “Kyle, what’s wrong?”
