Who: Kara and Matt Murdock
Where: Hyde Lounge
What: It's time a secret was told.
When: Saturday Evening
Rating: Low



The lounge area of Hyde was blissful free of patrons. What few tourists there were, were gathered up closer to the glass on the opposite side of the bar, watching the fountain. It's periodic music and the loud sprays of water were perfect cover for the quiet conversation Kara hoped to have. The booth where they sat was against the furthest wall, shrouded and dark. Anyone looking at them might of thought they were on a date, with how sequestered they were.

But Kara had much bigger things than romance on her mind.

She and Matt had been friends for awhile now. And, she supposed, he might just suspect, or even know, that she wasn't human. She hadn't made much effort to hide her otherness while in the dangerous world they had just inhabited. But even before then...there had been clues. Still, there were so many here, it seemed, with superhuman abilities, she thought maybe she blended in. Maybe most assumed she was an enhanced human. Or even an alien, as some of them claimed to be. But Matt was her friend. She wanted to trust him with the truth.

Didn't make her any less nervous about it as she sat across from him, fiddling with her glass so much it nearly slipped from her fingers more than once.

"I am too," she said simply. "I'm...not supposed to be this way. It's a glitch in my programing, something...wrong or off when I was made. My creator, well, he almost put me down. I guess he had pity." She was looking down at the table, but she squeezed his hand in return, taking comfort in the small gesture.

"You were my first friend here. I wanted you to know. You deserved to know. That I'm not..." she hesitated on the word, the one that had caused her so much pain on so many occasions, but never so much as in those first few moments of existence, "...alive."
