Red Lightning
“I was the last of us to be released, probably because of us all I'd spent the most time corresponding with Jubal. The Redmonds had been released first, after only four days. Another instance of crossing all the I's and dotting all the T's? I mean, they'd never talked to Jubal, never met him.The brats, too. They took the brats into custody. Unbelievable.They said later that nobody was rough with them. Mostly they sat around with some adults and played with toys. Doctors examined them and found n...o needle marks and the boys confirmed they hadn't been injected with anything. But there were traces of some drug in their blood. It was an inhibition-reducing substance and they probably put it in their ice cream. The boys said they ate a lot of ice cream, and then people got them to play with cool toys to tell the story of all the time they spent with us, the interplanetary terrorists, the Strickland-Garcia family.Ice cream. Nothing I saw in Florida compared with that.I learned all this later, because after the first round of hugs and kisses Dad hugged me again and put his lips to my ear."There is a name we will not mention for now.MoreLess
