Inside the motel room, Kai, Sven, Nadya, Isaac, and Amina were still gathered around the TV, trying to piece together what exactly had gone down on Takeshi's side. They had more questions than answers, but they all came to realise the same thing - they hardly knew anything about Takeshi.
Be it because he never spoke or because he was very mysterious, that was to be expected.
However, they were certain of one thing.
"It's out of character for him," Nadya muttered, with the others nodding in agreement.
"Takeshi's not the type to act so openly and recklessly. That guy's a walking ghost. Why would he be out there slicing apart buildings in the middle of the city?"
Kai didn't say anything. But the unease curled low in his gut.
Takeshi was strong, unbelievably so, but not invincible. No one was. Not when there were mutants like Thundercutter walking around with Association funding and enough PR to make a massacre look like a heroic rescue.
