Chapter 10
âWhy did Doctor Lyfe run away?â Mei asked as we hiked through an unidentified forest in North Carolina. âWhen you two fought each other in those games on the television, you always said you ânever back down.ââ
âBecause heâs a coward, thatâs why,â Ray said before he tossed his arm around my shoulder. âHe realized we were gonna kick his ass next, so he cut and run before we had a chance.â
âAnd he sacrificed one of his mutants,â I said. âThatâs the part that surprises me most of all. Like, I know Lyfe is just a selfish asshole, but I figured heâd want to protect one of his successful experiments at all costs.â
âWho says it was a successful experiment, dude?â Ray asked. âHe didnât seem anything like Mei or me. One of the dudes I worked with, letâs call him Olâ Joe, once told me he thought Lyfetech was trying to create an actual security force from the ground up that would only be loyal to the company and nobody else. But not just by like, paying them well or anything. Noooooo. They wanted people that could be mind controlled.â
âAre you kidding me?â I asked. âHe was a huge, superhuman soldier that could go toe to toe with you, Ray. Iâd say that was pretty successful.â
âNah, man,â Ray drawled. âHe wasnât anything close to the perfect soldier. He still seemed to have his own personality and free will, which isnât what theyâre going-- Oh, shit! I bet they started the experiments on humans, but it only made them stronger or something. Which is why theyâre experimenting on animals! Theyâre way more innocent, loyal, and theyâre less intelligent than a human, so theyâre easier to like, program or something. No offense, Mei.â
âI do not understand most of the words you just said,â the orange-haired beauty chuckled. âSo I am not offended.â
âNow that you mention it, the other soldiers seemed a bit âoffâ, too,â I said. âI know Lyfetech is filthy rich and can afford bodyguards, but those dudes were giving me some major Agent Smith, hivemind sort of vibes.â
âMind control, bro,â Ray replied.
âMind control?â I raised an eyebrow before I wiped a bit of sweat from my brow. âYouâre kidding, right?â
âDude, I donât kid around about stuff like this,â Ray said. âAre you really doubting that it might be true? In the last two days youâve literally seen your housecat turned into a sexy cat-person and your best friend turned into⦠whatever the fuck I am now, by an experimental serum. Iâd think youâd believe anything at this point.â
âThatâs fair,â I chuckled. âBut still, mind control? At least the serum has some sort of scientific basis to it. Mind control is starting to verge into magic territory.â
âNo way, man.â Ray shook his head. âTheyâve been experimenting with mind control for years now. Brain chip implants, hypnosis, radio frequencies⦠Itâs totally realistic nowadays. And if anybodyâs gonna figure out mind control, Iâd put my money on Lyfetech.â
âMaybe they are machines?â Mei said. âLike those little things that you drive around the house, and I absolutely love to chase.
