(Catherine's Father's POV)
For the last eight weeks, I have been almost constantly in the lab, trying to figure out how baby Jonathan regained his DNA after that shot. It should have removed all traces of my DNA and left him totally human. And Catherine. Catherine spent her whole life human, only to regain my DNA shortly after giving birth. Why? Is the DNA I passed down that powerful, or did that shot only mask their true DNA until nature decided otherwise. I don't know. Either way, I never wanted this for my daughter, my grandson, or anyone else for that matter. Muirfield forced me into all the experiments they did on me as a child and they're the ones who made sure I had the training to recreate my DNA in a lab for their use as an adult. I need another sample of Jonathan's DNA, and it can't wait till morning.
I made my way upstairs to Vincent and Catherine's room, and knocked. In a flash, Catherine was at the door, questioning my intrusion so late at night. Once a explained, she allowed me to sneak over to Jonathan's Crib and take a sample of his DNA to test. I also took a sample from her, and Vincent, along with my own to cross reference Jonathan's with. Once the testing was complete, I knew that the shot I had given Catherine while she was pregnant, had indeed worked. That none of the lab created DNA Vincent possessed had retained, just his human DNA. But the DNA Catherine had somehow retained had taken over months into her pregnancy. Vanessa had never expressed that Catherine showed any traits of my DNA growing up. The only theory I can come up with is that the hormones of pregnancy and delivery had somehow triggered my DNA coursing through her veins.
I shouldn't be so hard on myself, trying to find out exactly why all this happened to Catherine. She seems content, almost happy, that she and Vincent are now equals. That she now understands fully what he and I went through because of our mutated DNA. Quite frankly, I'm almost glad that she can protect Jonathan if needed while Vincent and I are off destroying Muirfield. Our plan will take several months to complete, in several stages. First thing's first, to destroy every ounce of research they have accumulated over the last few decades. Then, every facility they have ever used, to destroy all equipment and all traces of their research. Then, one by one, every agent, doctor, and scientist that has ever worked for them, along with any research they might have. It's not going to be a short, or an easy process, and it's dangerous to say the least, but one way or another, I'll make up for everything, all the pain and damage I've caused, all the hurt, and for leaving Catherine as an infant.
