Thomas was settling in nicely. He had meet some of his old associates like Nathan. Things were looking up, and he thought he would finally get the respect he deserved. He still hadn't worked up the nerve to go talk to Quinn. Every time he thought about it his heart string would pluck with a flash of Gloria's beautiful smile. Thomas didn't want to have a break down in front of Quinn and he knew he hadn't gotten over Gloria even though it had been almost sixteen years.
Thomas had been reading files seemingly since he got back. The amount of catch up was daunting. He liked a challenge though, plus he found some of the information very interesting. Some of the kids had developed amazing abilities and appeared to be completely structurally and mentally fine. Then there were the first set of patients. They were the ones that worried Tom the most, especially that Seth. There were a few others as well, like one that could phase through solid objects. "These old fools. They didn't consider these abilities to dangerous when combined with the original patients knowledge." Tom still held that they should have taken orphaned children as babies instead of using their own children. They would have been easier to groom as test subjects.
Thomas was on his tenth cup of coffee. He didn't have time for luxuries like sleep. Then he came across an especially thick file. "Great. Wonder what mistakes were made here." Tom opened the file and was struck breathless. The profile picture was Gloria, he was sure of it. "Why would Gloria be in these files? She is dead." As he read more, things started to not make sense. The file kept referring to a Madison. "Wait a minute I recognized that name." He flipped through some files on the desk and found one labeled 'Madison Eleanor Moriarty'. Tom placed the pictures next to each other. "This can't be. It's not possible." Though there were differences he was sure these were the same woman. It was Gloria. "She isn't dead?"
Tom's eyes filled with tears and it was hard to breath. "Why would she have done this? Why would she have put in so much effort to get away from me?" Tom's mind raced. He couldn't figure this out. It just refused to be processed by his mind. "Quinn!" If anyone had answers, it was her. It was time he went and had a chat with Quinn and then he would confront this Madison woman. Tom would have the truth no matter what it took. He grabbed the file and stormed out of the building in search of his target. Thomas was angry now and focused. Those responsible for this foolishness would be punished appropriately once he got to the bottom of this.
