I was scared, what did this weird guy want from us? Was he a hunter, hunting us mutants? Or was he another mutant trying to kill us? "What do you want from us?" I yelled into his grinning face. "Well, I'm looking for students who survived the bus accident." He answered without hesitation. "And it looks like I've found two really gifted boys here."
"Gifted at what?" Kaya, no longer intimidated, said. A few seconds later, the stranger began to laugh heartily. When he calmed down some time later, he said in a first tone: "Isn't it obvious? "And from that moment it was clear to me that he knew about our mutations. I didn't know what he wanted, but if he knew about our mutations, he surely didn't want to do us any good. "If you come with me, I will..." "Run, Kaya!" I interrupted him and ran as fast as I could. Unfortunately, that was pretty slow, because I was still extremely exhausted from the fight with the foxes.Although me and Kaya had a good 50 meter lead, it only took a moment for the guy to catch up with us. "Do you really think you can outrun me with such a plan? You'd need at least a doppelganger or invisibility potion for that!" Suddenly his eyes went black and leaves and pebbles formed a wall around us. "I don't want to hurt you. I, too, am a mutant. Since I mutated, I can control objects with my eyes. I want to tell you that you are not alone. There are dozens of mutants around here who have found a home with us. We are a group of people who have become mutants by chance. Like you, we want to become human again. That's why we do research every day, because science solves many problems. However, it also causes many.The company New Time Industrys is trying to create a new order with superhumans. Many of their employees have accidentally mutated and sent us this information. In the laboratories however not only physical things are adapted but on the brain. This creates the mutants from the messages. And now you still think you can get through on your own?"
I had no idea. Although it sounded like the guy had some idea what he was talking about, I didn't know if I could trust him just like that. Kaya probably didn't know either, because he also looked like he was thinking hard. I watched a squirrel climbing from a tree. Then, with renewed energy, I said:
"I'll do it! I'm coming with you. What else do I have to lose?" Kaya was of a similar opinion: "Akira is right! I'm coming too!"
Then we heard the stranger mutant giggle again, "I wouldn't have expected anything else. So come on, I'll show you."
A few minutes later we were sitting in a big truck, driving to a small suburb. Before we even realized it, we were standing in front of a run-down high-rise building. "So here we are" said the stranger who revealed himself to be Gale.
