Kelly & Ryan
Tommy speaks his eyes closed, “Legion from my estimates possesses no physical body, and he has somehow evolved either naturally or forcibly into a being of pure consciousness, he can inhabit other beings and is capable of splitting his being to create a hive network… but there must be a finite limit to this energy, or he could simply control every person the globe given a suitable amount of time.”
He pauses briefly, “Your mother is free of infection, though as a side effect of his possession his victims are fully aware of what is going on and are powerless to do anything about the possession. They become backseat drivers in their own bodies, which is the true trauma of this event.”
“In the end, he will be very difficult to track down, and destroy. Stopping him is not enough, he needs to be destroyed utterly, there is no rehabilitating him,” Tommy finishes.
The Dinner
Kal eats several shares worth of food, “This is good stuff, Cassie. Man and don’t worry about all that Eternal talk, they are pretty powerful but if you destroy one, another takes its place. It’s a cosmic thing, sort of like perpetuating existence, and all that you know? I wouldn’t worry too much about Chaos, he is a little out there, but he isn’t exactly evil either… ort of just beyond good and evil you know? Like pretty much the rest of the eternals.”
Kal chews down more food. He takes a drink, “I mean the Eternals are not gods, they are agents of some cosmic force, or at least that is what my dad… my real dad explained to me. I don’t claim to have all the answers but if you think they are involved and since the Overseer is involved I don’t see why that wouldn’t be true… then yeah something big is going to happen,” he burps.
Aya shrugs, “I don’t understand any of this, and who cares anyway? Overseer is a bad guy, we beat him up we win right? And don’t forget about the Red Witch and Genocide, because they have to pay for their crimes too, right?”
Gadget arrives wiping her brow and adjusting her glasses, “Hey guys, sorry I couldn’t greet you when you first got back. The UNJE had me working overtime, so what did I miss?”
She grabs a soda from the fridge and sits down next to Gilden.
