The Mighty Force

Chapter 10 Gordon initiates an attack.

"You know what... I've had it with you. You're a fucking moron, a huge pile of elephant shit!" She shouted.

"What the hell is wrong with you two?!" Sam exclaimed. The tone of his voice testified of exasperation.

Dan chuckled, "Jeez, people, relax... I was only kidding. Y'all are worked up for nothing."

She exhaled while Sam turned his attention to her.

"Do you mind telling us about what you said ... About something being strange?"

"Well, I don't have the second burns I got from fighting Dan..."

She looked at Dan and bore witness to an appalling fact. It was the fact that his right cheek was in good condition. New cells replaced the dying ones that once resided in his skin.

"Wait, even you?"

Dan raised his eyebrows with shock and failed to understand what she was saying.

Sam responded, "Oh yeah, it slipped my mind... I forgot to tell you that our species are more durable than humans. Those who have awakened their dormant cells can heal within an hour, or even thirty minutes at least."

"What, wait? Well, that does explain why my injuries healed faster when I was a kid," she said.

The three entered the cabin through the back door from the cargo room. Harrison was reclining on the couch when they first walked in. With his feet propped up on the left arm of the sofa and his head perched on the right, he donned a pair of headphones. He was in his element as the music notes danced cheerfully in his ear, stimulating a sense of bliss while they made their way down the canal. When he saw the three, he swiftly got off the couch and set the headphones aside as they drew nearer.

He lifted his hands and roared in annoyance, "I have been waiting for three hours!"

"Calm down, princess, " replied Diana while Dan chuckled.

"Mr. Austin, are you ready to leave?" Barney asked through the intercom.

"Yes," Sam said.

Within minutes, the jet blasted off into the air.

Meanwhile, Dan took a glass and poured himself a drink. He smelt the scent of the drink and asked, "What kind of drink is this?"

"A martini," replied Sam.

He chugged it down with one gulp and said, "That was one hell of a drink. "

Diana approached the glass desk and sat on the chair. She opened her Mac book while Dan looked at her with intrigue.

"Aren't you gonna have a drink?"

"Nope, unlike you, I'm not a sucker for booze."

He narrowed his eyes with an irritant. She put her headsets on in the meantime and got to work.

He turned around to face Sam.

"So, Mr. Austin, would you mind telling me why I'm here?"

"Well, I have a reason to believe that you...I mean, the three of you are my long-lost siblings," Sam replied.

"That's bull!" Dan said.

"It's not; I also haven't yet wrapped my head around it. "

Dan scoffed and asked, "Then why bring us here?"

"I know that the three of you are trying to suppress the connection you get when we're together, but I know that you feel something, " Sam replied.

"I can't explain it, but I feel like I can trust you," Dan said with his arms crossed.
