It's about the experiment that went wrong. Project Genesis. Details of what happened."
"And what happened?" Corey said.
I had to finish reading the first page before I could answer. Then I explained. As we'd guessed, Project Genesis was another experiment with genetically modified supernaturals. Only these ones seemed to be normal types. Well, "normal" in the sense that we'd heard about them before. Witches, sorcerers, half-demons, werewolves, and something called necromancers.
"I've seen them in video games," Corey said. "They control the dead."
"Zombies?" I said.
"Right."
As supernatural types went, that seemed weird, and I suspected there was more to it. According to the notes, some of the kids had problems. So they locked them up in a group home. The kids figured out why they were there and escaped. And apparently came back and destroyed the laboratory, killing Dr. Davidoff and several others.
"Why can't we do that?" Corey said.
"Because we don't know where to find anyone," I said. "Even if we did, we aren't ready for that. They had help. A father and an aunt who'd been in on the experiments."
"So what happened?" Corey asked. "And what does this have to do with us?"
