"Thats enough volts to kill an elephant..... and he's still screaming his bloody head off in there..."
Thomas chuckles at the end of his statement
"That kid's impressive, I'll say"

Darren observes the experiment that was now being called; project: D102. The chipmunk they found on a whim was proving to bond well with the S serum and evolutionary wise, the rodent was excelling past expectations of such a feeble species...but soon will become a true apex, with the right training.

"Hey-"
Darren looked at the scientist next to him who was also in control of Denzel's shock therapy
"When will this son of a bitch be ready to get into the field with me? How many fights he win?"

"Well..not anytime soon-and uh the watchers have told us that he's won his sixth fight as of a couple days ago...What really makes him worth our time; is his fascinating chemistry with the S serum, it's allowing his cells to function hyperactivity and without strain to any part of his body, he doesn't have the Twitch, it's created a powerful healing factor and because of his seemingly perfect clarity of how to kill, he learns quick and make significant jumps in development, Especially when in a corner....and D102 is seemingly self-aware that he is in fact an extraordinary specimen"

The raccoon, Frank, watched D102 from behind the glass-actually feeling sympathy for the rodent that had to undergo the harsh experiments but also wary of how strong something like that can get
"How do you know, he said as much? How old is he?"

The armadillo turned towards the raccoon that stood closer to the glass wall
"Hasn't uttered a word thus far, only growls and grumbles I'm afraid"

The red panda sits up from his chair to pitch in
"16, this is the kid that was caught with another kid, a cat I believe, they did a number on Voltigo from what I heard-I didn't think any truth behind it till I seen that nasty scar on his eye"
Thomas says while pointing at his own missing eye, covered by an eye patch whilst Darren comments
"You mean the socket where his eye used to be? Now you two have something to bond over"
The three bounty hunters laugh together before the Raccoon, Frank, grew curious yet again

"The cats the same? Performance wise?"
Frank turns his head to look at the scientist behind himself, the armadillo gets lower to open a drawer that contained files.

"They're both about the same age and both have bonded well with the S serum but the only difference is that D102 is the only one I've seen with potential to rival even experiments from the first division, extremely powerful but maintaining a perfect hold on his physical body...only time will tell for how long though"
The scientist pulls out Mikah's file, labeled "Project: M273"
"Project M273; He's won four fights but lost to a bear, I had already told the watchers to make sure M273 was recovered and a chance to heal, specimen's healing factor is about average to what the data normally provides....I only saved him to see if his cells were on par with D102 but he's nothing spectacular"
The armadillo explains and Darren rubs his chin to think as he looks at the chipmunk, D102 was roaring as he tried to get out of the metals that bind him, the Chupacabra spoke once he collected his thoughts
"Put that same bear to fight this kid"
The scientist nods in agreement

"You're an asshole"
Frank shook his head, trying to hold back laughter which made Thomas chuckle, Darren grinned at the raccoon
"You and Thomas step out a moment, I need to have a word with Mr. lab coat"
The two bounty hunters looked at each other slightly confused but both make their way to the door, steppin out.
