Anaya was completely passed out when they arrived home. One look at her and Colt knew she was going to be in a lot of pain.As a former agent, he was well aware of the inhibitor used on her.
It does more damage than just stopping someone from using their elemental powers. He sighed heavily, slightly grateful that it wasn't Lila.
Not that he didn't care about Anaya. However, he had good reasons to believe that this was the best result.
While the inhibitor would put someone in a lot of pain for days, it does the opposite for Lila. There was one time when he accidentally released it before she could cover her nose.
The next thing he knew, she turned into something else. If her technique was ruthless before after taking the inhibitor in, she would go on a killing spree.
It simply increased her killing intent. Even without her elemental abilities, Lila had some problems defending herself from the enemies.
