Council Leader Vorik sat in his council chamber. Alice and the twins were beside him. They were playing with their two infants when Jada burst inside the room, breathing heavily.
"Commander Grev is here on Earth. I saw what he looks like!" she told him, breathing hard and out of breath. She had run from one side of the dome to the other, looking for him. He was in the last place she checked.
Council Leader Vorik looked up. "Where?" he asked evenly, trying to restrain his emotions. He became still, anger washing through his features.
"They were outside the dome. There was a scout team that looked weird; it was like they were faking being under the influence of the serum. It almost smelled like they didn't have the serum in them. It was really strange," she continued. "I heard what Grev said. All of it."
"What did he say?" Council Leader Vorik asked. He knew it wasn't going to be good, whatever it was. There was nothing good about Commander Grev.
