“That might complicate things if we have to run for it,” Grue said.
I didn’t have a response to that.
I guess you’ll just have to roll with it.
Charlotte left with the kids, and we took the time to manage our wounds. I headed into the ground floor bathroom to run cold water over the burns on my legs and back. Grue sat on the toilet’s lid and began gathering the necessary things from the first aid kit.
They really need and deserve a short rest right now.
My power found Genesis, but only briefly. She was big, some sort of flying pufferfish with a hard exterior and tentacles.

It was a hard image to piece together. She floated slowly over the streets, and the bugs that I had on her died as Burnscar pelted her. I tried to send some bugs after her, but she disappeared into the side of a burning building as they approached.
Damn teleporters, am I right?
I tried and failed to find where she’d teleported to. Frustrating. Whatever her destination, it was a place my bugs couldn’t touch, so I had to wait for her to move away or start attacking from another vantage point.
I wonder what sort of range she has on her teleportation.
