MAN FROM TOMORROW (EPISODE 89)

Blood, brains, and bone chips of the hitman’s skull were hard to avoid stepping on when he dragged Kevin from the garage.

“Anita!, I need you here. Leave the professor, he is dead. Let us save Kevin!” Martin shouted trying to hold back tears.

Anita had taken out one knife out from Antonio’s hand. Hearing Martin she rushed to help Kevin. Martin had retrieved keys from the dead assassin’s body. “Quick, lets take this man’s car.” Martin said, pointing to the black BMW.

Once Anita was also supporting Kevin, they moved more quickly. But at the rate that Kevin’s weight was increasing, it seemed that by the time they reached the car they would be carrying a corpse. It didn’t matter how fast he could heal a wound like that would kill him faster than he healed.

Anita ran ahead of Martin to open the car door, where she waited to ease Kevin onto the back seat. There wasn’t any time to buckle him in, they had to be on the move. Even with the hitman dead, there were still the Korean gang to consider, and they didn’t have time to be questioned by the police.

Anita and Martin jumped into their respective seats and drove deeper into town. They needed to get back to New York City.

Martin shoved the papers into Anita’s hands once they were on the road, asking her to read them for him. Surely, if the hitman saw them as a reason to torture the Professor, they had to be something valuable.

“Antonio figured this all out and made a report,” Anita breathed. Martin took a moment to look at her, seeing that her eyes were wide with what he wasn’t sure to be shock or surprise.

“What is it?” he asked.

 “It says ‘The abnormal qualities discovered within KEVIN’S body are unlike anything I have previously examined. Not only are they on the level of being what one would call a super human, the complexity of his body structure skyrocketed, even in comparison to the body of a regular human.

“The most unusual observation I’ve made in my so far was his genetic makeup. Like all humans, he contained a very specific strand of DNA that I’ve yet to look at closely, but I plan to in the coming days. What baffles me most about it is its structural integrity. Unlike us humans, who are equipped with a double helix, KEVIN seems to have three rather large, separate strands of DNA that have, over time, fused together into one’. Anita concluded, dropping the papers back into her lap.

Before Martin could respond, in the back of the car, Kevin rolled over and heaved onto the floor. Another second passed and Martin looked back to see the man Cough blood, a lot of blood, and all the life drained from his face. He collapsed into the pile of blood and vomit, dead.
