rapidly!”
    Agent Hardine’s
face dropped. His mouth was slightly opened and the color of his skin
began to drain.
    “Agent
Hardine?” Garrett shouted. The agent snapped out of it and got
back into focus. “We need to get someone down there
immediately!” Garrett shouted.
    Agent Hardine got
on his radio to inform the others, but just as he was getting ready
to do so, the power went out, shutting off all communication on that
floor.
    “Well that
can’t be good,” Garrett said doing his best to try and
remain calm. “I knew I should've stayed at the office!”
    Jason stared at his
readings thoroughly to make sure he was seeing things correctly. “Who
is this man here?” Jason pointed to the man in the last cell on
the right hand side.
    Agent Mallory
walked over to Jason to take a look. He eyed the prison and gave him
a dirty look. “This here is our newest prisoner. His name is
Erik Masters. He was brought in just a little while ago by Agent
Hardine's unit.”
    Jason studied Erik
carefully. Erik sat in his cell with a mischievous look on his face.
Agent Mallory shoved it off as Erik trying to play mind games with
them. Jason however, suspected it was something more than that. Jason
pulled Agent Mallory to the side so that the prisoners could not here
them talk.
    “Don’t
touch me!” Agent Mallory said firmly, forcibly removing Jason’s
hand off him.
    “Your files
on this man are incorrect,” Jason said.
    Agent Mallory gave
Jason a hard look. “So first you come here and accuse us of
capturing Post Humans without just cause and now you insult us by
saying our files are incorrect.” Agent Mallory turned his back
on Jason Shaw and began walking away.
    “I’m
not insulting you I’m simply stating a fact.”
    Agent Mallory
turned back to Jason and got in his face. “I think you are
forgetting something. As long as you are in here, your abilities
don’t work either. I assure you, without those abilities of
yours, you ain't nothing. Right now me and you are even.”
    Jason ignored Agent
Mallory’s confrontational remark. Even without his abilities
Jason was quite the skilled fighter.
    “Please Agent
Mallory; just take a look at these files. Your files contradict the
reports The League has. Our files are quite accurate and I assure you
our files on this man is different than the ones I'm looking at
here.”
    Agent Mallory
huffed. He took the device from Jason and looked it over. The report
G.U.A.R.D had on Erik Masters stated he had the ability to manipulate
fire. That report was on The League’s files as well. However,
in addition to manipulating fire, The League’s report’s
also stated that Erik also could communicate and manipulate
electricity.
    That wasn’t
such a big deal, because of the inhibitor field prevented Erik from
using those abilities. The problem was, in the League’s report,
it also stated that Erik was highly resistant to any suppressing
manipulator. Meaning it would require a much higher dosage from the
inhibitor in order to suppress Erik's abilities.
    “Why isn’t
this report on our database?” Agent Mallory asked with
suspicious intent. Jason didn’t have an answer for him. “Are
you sure your report is correct?” Agent Mallory asked. He
studied and compared the reports again searching for answers.
    “Have you
ever known our reports to be incorrect?” Jason asked.
    Agent Mallory shook
his head angrily. Every report the League had on Post Human criminals
had been correct thus far so there was no reason to assume this
report was incorrect. Agent Mallory looked over towards Erik Masters
who was sitting comfortably on his bed.
    “You think
it's possible someone intentionally erased part of Erik's file from
our system?” Agent Mallory asked.
    Jason nodded, “It
would make sense. We know someone hacked into this system last week,
that's why we are here, to assess any possible breaches. It makes
sense.”
    Agent Mallory did
not want to hear that. He wanted answers. Who was
