“This is Delta 4 to the control tower, I have our ladies and request a medical team on the tarmac.” Patricia glanced at the monitor that was watching over the cargo bay where all the stasis pods were being stored.

She was checking each pod to make sure everything was working okay with them. She was concerned about her adopted daughter. Physically, there wasn’t anything wrong with everyone, but they were still unconscious.

“Roger Delta 4. The medical response team will be waiting for you.” Kelly Anderson hopes everything is alright with Patricia’s team.

Jennifer watches as Patricia brings the transport plane in and lands it carefully. She knew Patricia could have used the hovering capability of the transport as she did when she landed on the aircraft carrier. Instead, she was landing the transport the normal way.

Dr. Harris watched as the transport plane carrying the Delta team landed. She and her people were ready to sprint out to the plane.

“Alright, Rescue, get us out there.”

“On it, boss.” Rescue/ Alicia floors the transport unit and heads right for the loading dock on the transport team.

“Alright team, let's get these ladies inside and see what is wrong with them.” Dr. Harris knew Pat must be worried sicked because Stephanie was one of the injured.

The medical team reacts quickly and disconnects the medical pods from the transport power supply. Each pod had its internal power but could be connected to an external power supply. Two team members each take one of the medical pods and carefully roll them down the ramp and over toward the medical transport.

Rescue and her partner, Rush check each pod and secure them as they are loaded. Once all four pods are loaded, Rush gets behind the steering wheel and drives towards the receiving bay where Dr. Harris and her medical team will meet them. Rush backs the transport into the bay and more medical staff helps unload the pods and take them to medical examination room alpha.

Jennifer looks over at Pat “Stephanie will recover, Pat.”

“I know, I just feel helpless.” Patricia closes the ramp and lets the maintenance crew move the transport plane over to the storage hangar.

She and Jennifer walk towards the pilot’s entrance at the mountain and check in with the security guard on duty. Just as they are about to head towards medical, Patricia receives a message “Pat, I need for you to head to New Orleans and pick up two medical pods waiting for you.”

“Ivy, can’t you get someone else to do it?” Patricia wanted to be by her daughter’s side.

“I wish I could, but the weather is bad down there and you’re the most qualified pilot we have here.” Ivy knew how Patricia felt. If her child was in medical and in a medical pod, she would want to be with her.

“Fine, I’m taking Jennifer with me. Maybe she can calm the storms down there.”

“That’s fine, Delta 2 is waiting for you on runway 3.” Ivy already had Delta 2 prep and was ready to go.

Patricia turns and looks towards Jennifer “You’re coming with me to New Orleans.”

“Pat, I would rather stay here and be by my team’s side.” Jennifer didn’t want to leave her team.

“I know and I feel the same way, but the weather down in New Orleans is bad and I could use your help.” Patricia knew how Jennifer felt.

“Fine, let me text my husband and let him know.” Jennifer texts Markus letting him know she was flying down to New Orleans with Patricia.

A smirk appears on Jennifer’s face when she gets a reply from him. She didn’t know he knew about the special pastries down in New Orleans. She follows Patricia back out to the tarmac and over to the smaller transport plane. This one was designed like the quinjet from the television show, Sheild.

“What or who are we picking up from New Orleans, Pat?” As Jennifer walks up the ramp.

“Don’t know. They will be waiting for us at the airport.” Patricia was worried about Stephanie. Her other daughter was with her husband. She already informed him she wasn’t going to be coming home any time soon.

“Well, since it’s going to be an hour or so before we get there. I’m placing an order for gumbo, Beignets, and pralines. I figure by the time we arrive; it will be waiting for us.” Jennifer wanted to surprise her husband.

Back At the Mountain:
Dr. Harris and Dr. Blake were running every test they could to see what was going on with the girls from the Delta team. All their vitals were above average and they noticed when they tried to take a blood sample from Cortney. They couldn’t penetrate her skin at all.

Dr. Harris noticed that Cortney’s body measurements had changed since she had come back from Brazil. She weighed at least 300 lbs. and had a very muscular Amazonian build to her. Her chest had expanded from a 34G cup to a 40K cup and was now six foot four inches tall, where she used to be five foot seven inches tall and weighed 160 lbs. Even her waist and hips had changed. Her new measurements were 54 inches breasts 32 inches waist and 44 inches hips.

As for the other girls, nothing physically was different about them. However, when Dr. Blake tested their blood, she noticed they had active metahuman genes. According to their medical records, none of them had the gene before.

Dr. Harris noticed that Jessie’s brain activity was more active than normal. Her skin was tougher and her body had undergone some changes as well.

“Dr. Blake, are you seeing this?” Dr. Harris looks over towards Edward. She knew he was the son of their employer Janet Blake. He specialized in abnormal abnormalities in human beings.

“Yeah, I’m seeing this, but I don’t believe it. It’s like all these ladies, including Stephanie, are changing their DNA.” Edward couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

He read the report he got from Jennifer and looked over the medical notes Dr. Drake sent back with the girls. All the new data he was getting about the ladies, showed they had undergone some changes in the last twenty-four hours.

Four hours later, Patricia and Jennifer return from New Orleans with two girls. One girl looked like she got hit by lightning and had a gothic look about her. The New Orleans Police Department found her in one of their oldest graveyards and it looked like she had been performing some sort of ritual. The other girl was as young as Stephanie and had been a victim of a shooting, but whatever the bullet traveled through had infected her with the substance. Her body was undergoing changes and the doctors didn’t know what was happening to her.

Rescued and Rush met Delta 2 on the tarmac and transported the two ladies down to the same operating room where Delta squad was. Edward’s twin sister who happened to be visiting the mountain and was a doctor as well came into the medical room to look after the other two women.

While the two women were being looked after. Background searches were being done on the two of them. Ivy and Ghost were accessing every computer system to find out more about these ladies.
