Shattered
Part One: Byrne
Chapter Four
Special Delivery
It was one heck of a wake up call when we found out the truth.
We found a package on our doorstep, about the size of a man, with a DNA label on it.
We were suspicious, but Deets and I brought it inside. Fizz checked it over to make sure it wouldn't explode on us or anything, and once we were sure it wasn't dangerous we let the outside fall away.
Inside was a solid piece of glass or crystal, with a slight orange tinge. Inside that was Byrne.
He looked like he was sleeping.
Something else fell out of the package, a holo-disc from Bedlam.
The crystal was Medullian Crystal. It forms a symbiotic connection with anyone trapped inside it. And there was no way to remove him from it without killing him because of that.
We didn't speak for a while.
