Sunshine looked at Nimo and they exchanged a knowing look. They had both met people like Cain before. People that thought they were smarter than everyone else in the room.
Major Elio tapped Sunshine's shoulder and pulled her back. He lowered a part of his helmet and said to her in a low voice, "The people here are scared of him. Women are trembling, children are shivering. I have seen some men with bruises."
Sunshine nodded. She figured that Cain ruled with an iron fist.
He was a bully. She disdained bullies.
His kind was not uncommon to see in the apocalypse. Superhumans that enslaved ordinary humans and stepped on them like worms. Cain and others like him were the reason why superhumans had a bad reputation in some places.
"Hey, what are you whispering about?" Cain barked. The faint blue veins in his exposed skin pulsed, seeming to hum.
"Whatever he is, he is sparking." Elio told Sunshine.
