....Warriors weapons research facility. Sheryl’s mother had been pregnant with her then; in fact she was almost due and was supposed to be on maternity leave but the woman loved her work. Her husband (Sheryl’s father) had tried countless of times to convince her to stay at home and rest but she had refused.
Jack supposed that he was kind of thankful that she had refused to stay at home for it was because of her that her and her husband were able to discover the formula. Whether it was the hormones; Jack did not know or care but the pregnancy had somehow enhanced her thinking abilities.
He vividly remembered the day she had cracked the code. She had burst into his office shouting
“We did it; we did it”
“Did what?” Jack had asked wondering why she was so ecstatic.
“The molecular infusion was successful” she had beamed.
Jack could hardly believe it especially since they had spent two years working on the project and it didn’t seem to be yielding any results. In fact HQ was just about to can the project as they claimed it was taking up to much of the facility’s resources.
“Can you show me?” jack had asked wanting to see for himself.
“Let’s go” Sheryl’s mother had told him as she rushed to the lab.
Jack had followed her; eager to see if it was true. Sheryl mother had picked up the lab rat from the lab and sedated it so it wouldn’t move around. She had then placed it on the counter and handed Jack a pistol.
