The Aberrant Series (Book 1): Super Charged Page 17

by Kendrick, Franklin


  I glance at her, feeling a sort of energy emanating from the book as I hover my hands over it. Then I reach around the cover and lift it open.

  To my surprise it’s a journal, the kind with the thin blue lines and fancy end papers. On the inside cover is my father’s name written in blue ink.

  “It’s his journal!” I say. It’s not like I haven’t seen his handwriting a million times before, but this is different than his fiction writing. These are his thoughts on real life. These are more precious than gold.

  “Looks quite valuable,” says Grandma. “I’m curious how this escaped the great purge that we sent to his publishers. What does it say?”

  I turn the protective page that keeps everything from smudging and begin to read the first page of my father’s daybook.

  To my publishers at Marshall-Crichton, it reads.

  This journal is to be read only by my son, Shaun, or to be published only 100 years after my death.

  Shaun, if you are reading these words now, know that I am sorry this information had to come to you this way. You deserved an explanation in person.

  There are so many things to tell you - things that only I know. Without this account, my memories will be buried in the ground. It is your job to keep them alive and use them to triumph over evil.

  There is so much evil in the world. Much of it is petty criminality. That will never be overcome completely. But, we can try. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that there are many tiers to evil.

  Some are minor annoyances, and some are an all-encompassing force that will not rest until it dominates all life.

  I regret to inform you that I must start with one such form of dominating evil, the one you must watch out for the most - and that is Bill Flagrant:

  The Drone.
