Sierra looked up, her brow creased in concern, “Did they drug him? Dirty needles? Did they… was he-”
For once, it’s a bad thing that the answer to that first question is “no”.
“They didn’t touch him,” Lisa reassured Sierra, “But that’s because he wasn’t one of their victims. He was one of them.”
And there it is.
Denial in…
Sierra shook her head, “No. You must have misunderstood.”
Just, a lot less forcefully.
“The people who attacked the church? He was with them. He got hurt helping them fight to win some prize the leaders were offering.”
Probably a good call not to mention what that prize was. I have a feeling “to win superpowers on a vial” wouldn’t go over well.
“No,” Sierra shook her head again. “He wouldn’t!”
The denial intensifies.
I think the only ways to make her believe it might be either concrete evidence, which they don’t really have, to my knowledge, or Bryce waking up and telling her himself.
