Loved the story. Well written. Your sister had talent, just like you!
There was one scene that made for an interesting mental image.
Lyn employed a technique taught by the Underground, heard him grunt with pain and felt his hold loosen. She twisted hard, managed to free herself and leaped away. Psychic energies reached out and heat flared. The area around the groin of Teddy's pajamas smoked suddenly, and a darkening circle appeared. Teddy yelped. The circle became a hole with rapidly widening, blackened edges. Teddy screamed, beating at the area with both hands.
I can only imagine how effective that 'technique' would be. I expect it is only useful against the male of the species...
Now, question about Dupres. I think he was a sleeper that had been programmed so strongly, that he developed a split personality. Do we hear from him again?
