Chapter 83: My Children

The dim light inside challenges his vision for a moment, long enough for the doctor to slip away and leave him at the

door, Minnie still faithfully next to him. He strokes her fur as he watches Dr. Lund walk the length of the cafeteria,

all the way to the end where a makeshift stage waits for her, equipped with a podium and all. Reid moves closer, aware of

his fellow hunters in front of him, the soldiers moving into position around the doctor and along the walls. He spots the

scowling commander and can only imagine how pissed the man still is at Dr. Lund for shooting one of his men.

Reid takes a seat at the table the rest of the pack just vacated, helping himself to the boxed pizza. It's bland and

cold, but he doesn't care. Liquid brown eyes look up at him with longing.

"My children," Dr. Lund's voice oozes love and kindness, "our goals have been achieved at last. You are free. We are

free. And no one can stop us from moving ahead with our plans."
