Revenge
As if they were actually heeding Finn’s words, the helicopters pulled away, leaving him in darkness. An uneasy feeling overcame him. For a moment, he began to wonder if they had actually left him.

In the darkness around him, he no longer heard the footfalls of the LIGHTS team members. The helicopters were far enough off now, he could hardly see or hear them. Keeping his gun drawn, he slowly stood, preparing to run again. Just as he got to his feet, a force hit him squarely in the chest, the impact jarring him much like a runaway freight train colliding with the side of a mountain. As he careened through the air, he reali

“I’m honestly not sure what’s going on,” Jamie admitted. Cadence and Aaron were sitting across from him at his desk in his own lab. “Everything looks fairly similar to the way it looked before. I pulled up your charts from your last physical, which was about a year ago, and there are some elevated levels of certain strands in your DNA that weren’t there before, but nothing that should result in what we saw in Billings.”Aaron looked disappointed. “So, nothing that points to inflated supernatural abilities?”

Brandon continued to nod, taking in all of the information. After a few moments, he said, “Well, I appreciate your help. I’m glad to at least know who my dad was—even if this all seems a bit… crazy.”“It’s not uncommon for people to feel that way once they find out the truth,” Aaron assured him. “Tell you what, why don’t you take my card, and if you have any questions, or if you decide you want to join our team, we’d love to have you. Your dad was a really special person, and you are an awful lot like him.” Aaron pulled a

Vacuuming carpets and dusting desks was mundane, but it wasn’t the worst job Cowboy Sam, a.k.a. Danny Yokes, had performed in his centuries long life. Still, as he ran the old Hoover WindTunnel over the faded navy blue flooring of Mrs. Lawrence’s fifth grade classroom, he couldn’t help but wonder what might be next for him. He needed to find a way to move on from here, to make contact with Alex or any of the other Hunters who might be willing to help him in some way. He knew there were thousands of Hunters and Guardians who wanted him dead, and though he felt he was fully capable of living by himself in the rustic state he now existed in for as long as he needed to, it was getting rather monotonous and boring. Not to mention, he had never been one to stomach failure. Maybe ther
