ISBN: 978-1-4697-8630-8 Excerpt CHAPTER 1 FLASHBACK About 150 miles west of Sanders lies a small town named Delaney, whichis in the county of the same name. The town may be small, but thepopulation was abundant, mainly due to Delaney College, which sits rightin the middle of it. It was at this very same college in which a man namedGuy attended when he was just 4 months old. No one would ever havebelieved, but this man was an end result of an experiment which explodedin Sanders on April 3rd, 2004. While still inside his mother's womb, sheinhaled the rapid-growth mist and passed it along to him. In just a fewmonths, he looked as if he were 21, very handsome with straight, blackhair which grew out of control after being in an agitated state of mind.With the strength of ten ordinary men and the ability to use almost everymolecule of his mind, he was a fast learner who retained everything he wasexposed to, as well as a potentially dangerous man if he ever became out ofcontrol with his anger. However, even though he was a peaceful man, thisonly happened once, and someone ended up paying the price for it. Guy new that he was special and learned more about himself and hisabilities as he grew. Unfortunately, the one skill he did lack was the oneinvolving sexual relations with a woman. While attending college he meta beautiful woman named Monique. She became the very one, and only,who released the full pleasure of intimacy from Guy, stating to him thatshe was on the pill and to just let it flow to the highest level anyone couldachieve. Being the very first time for Guy, the overwhelming pleasurablefeeling he never knew before did not allow him to argue the fact, and hedid as she asked. And even though she knew she wasn't going to see himafter he was finished with school, the incident of the one man who payedthe price of Guy's out-of-control anger happened shortly after, and Guywas arrested and forced to leave college and Delaney before graduation. Itwas at this period in time that Monique started to have problems of herown. During the week of August 30, 2004, which was after Guy's arrest,Officer Brown was patrolling a quiet neighborhood at 1:47 p.m. whenhe heard the call come in from his radio. "This is dispatch calling Unit 7.Please respond." He clicked his radio piece. "This is Brown." "We just received a missing person report on a Monique Watson, residingat 1275 Northwest 17th Avenue. We need confirmation on her status." "Say no more. I'm on it." After making a quick U-turn, he proceededto the stated address, and arrived at 1:58 p.m. A hard knock at the doorresulted in no response, so he knocked harder the second time, yelling,"Monique Watson. This is the police. Please open up." After failing toget a response a second time, he clicked on his radio. "This is Unit 7responding to the missing person report on Monique Watson. There's a carin the driveway and I can see there are lights on through her window, butthere is no response to my presence. Waiting for further instructions." "Unit 7, we have contacted her family, and you are authorized with theirpermission to use any means necessary to enter the house and report on anyactivity." "Roger that." He grabbed the doorknob and noticed that is waslocked, so he forcefully butted the door with his right shoulder twiceand succeeded to bust it open. After walking inside, he scoped the housecarefully, yelling once again, "Monique Watson, this is the police. Pleaseanswer me if you can." Still being cautious, he walked slowly through theliving room, then noticed an arm stretched out from behind the couch. Herushed over and knelt next to her with a horrid look, seeing her lying onher back, wearing just her underwear and bra. After feeling a pulse on herneck, he clicked on his radio once more.

Her stomachseems to be covered with scars, like stretch marks or something. It couldbe the sign of twins or triplets, but it doesn't look natural. It's nothing likeI've ever seen before." Monique heard him and slowly opened her eyes. He looked at herwhile she spoke slowly and out of breath. "Get it ... it out ... please.It's ... it's hurting me." "Ma'am, just try to breathe. What is your name?" "Monique. But I can't ... be ... this far ..." "Ma'am, I need you to stay calm. The ambulance is on its way. Youand your baby will be just ..." Suddenly he was stifled by a squishing noiseand stared in awe while watching her stomach distort, as if the infantsinside her w
