Goodness! A telepathic super soldier. And someone on this ship was experimenting with the possibility. She took a look at the first and third chromosomes, and her frown deepened. Their mad scientist knew what they were doing that’s for sure. She returned to their list and pointed out their likely candidates. “This isn’t the work of some experimenting mad scientist. This is someone who knows what they are doing. Dr. Singh oversees the exobiology lab and he has a background in genetics. He’s been in and out of the labs all day.” Including one visit between Demil’s discovery and their arrival to the lab.

“But look here.” V’alura pointed towards another name. “Dr. Velkal has made three visits to the lab over the past week. She’s in planetary science, so why is she making so many visits in exobiology? She does have a background in biology, specifically planetary ecosystems. She’s an experienced and accomplished scientist.” Then there was the last name that stood out. “Dr. Quloxia, civilian scientist, and married to one of the engineers I think. He’s trained in a wide variety of scientific fields and usually fills in for other scientists or to shore up numbers for the harder projects.” Both Dr. Quloxia and Dr. Velkal were also in since Demil’s last visit.

“Velkal seems the most likely of the three, as the other 2 have reasons to be here. We still should investigate all of them,” Demil said. “Should we let Commodore Andone, Commander Dirida, or security know?” A sudden idea struck him right after he asked the question, and he inquired “Do we have any tiny hidden cameras?”
