AI Hunter Chronicles: Energized (Season 1)

Episode 43: Battle of Emotions

Hyperion's Home

We cut to Hyperion, returning home after about 5 days in the hospital from being dropped off a building.

He arrives home, bandaged around the body after what happened. As he walked in, Socks immediately came to him, meowing and rubbing against his leg. He looks down at her, smiles, and squats down to pet her behind the ears.

Hyperion: Good to be home, girl...

Quinn is also here, on a laptop that Hyperion had left around.

Quinn: Hyperion? You're back already from the hospital?

He looks up and sees her, a smile appeared in his face. He slowly stands upright as he answers

Hyperion: It's nice to see you too. Yeah, I just got discharged from the hospital. Seems like I recovered faster than the doctor thought I would.

Quinn: That's...really unusual. You fell off a building. Even if you woke up sooner than expected, the doctors gave about a month for you to recover.

He chuckled a bit

Hyperion: Yeah, I know right? I was surprised as they were when I said I felt perfectly fine.

He slowly walks to the nearby couch, and slowly sits on it. He lets out a slight groan as his body still hurt from the previous trauma

Quinn: Anyways, I've been taking care of the place, and Socks, like you asked me to, and I followed the budget you left for me. I even met a nice woman from Florida named Jennifer. She helped me find the cheap cereal.

Flashback

Quinn: Let's see. looks at a grocery list All I need left is to buy cereal. Now what would be in bu-bumps into person in front of her on accident Oh, pardon me madam.

The woman you bumped into, a middle aged, blonde woman is outraged. 

Jennifer: Excuse me, have you ever heard of keeping to your own space?

Quinn: I'm sorry ma'am, I was busy looking at this list and I wasn't paying attention.

The woman looks enraged and begins staring you down. 

Jennifer: Well, maybe if you were paying more attention to your surroundings instead of looking at that dinky list of yours, you wouldn't have bumped into me.

Quinn: You would be correct. A lot has been on my mind recently.

The woman crosses her arms and stares you down. 

Jennifer: Oh really? What could a little Canadian girl possibly have on her mind to make her run into people?

Quinn: My friend is in the hospital. He was pushed off the top of a building by the company he worked for after they fired him, and made it look like he tried to kill himself.

The woman's expression immediately changes. Her tone of voice is much softer and less hostile. 

Jennifer: Oh, my goodness, I had no idea that you were going through something so terrible. I'm so sorry for snapping at you.

Quinn: It's okay. People have snapped at me a lot in my time.
