Thunder Struck (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798224409723)

There were stranger things on Earth.The government cover-up was trending on social media. Posts from eyewitnesses loaded videos that spread quicker than the security unit in I.T. could contain. Too many witnesses and nosey town folks fueling the speculations.

Pike, Morris, and 49 held newly altered jumpsuits. The weight was not much heavier than the hazmat suits from the plane but the web of wires was concerning. Pike held his suit toward Cooper while turning back to see his teammates' expressions as he stated, "We are driving. Why do we need to wear these?"

Cooper returned, shoulders slumped muttering to himself. He handed them each a padded pouch. Pike pulled the Velcro. Cooper pointed. "You can track the sky. Gives you an edge."

Pike pulled out the John Lennon shaped glasses, spreading the arms and trying them on. It took his vision a few moments to adjust to what he was actually seeing. "What are these Cooper?"

Cooper put on his own pair. "Did you know bees can see the electromagnetic patterns in the sky?"

Pike walked out a few steps unsteadily still adjusting his vision through the glasses. The blue tires were no longer powder blue. He could see the fibers woven in the rubber. He should see the flex of black that clung to the blue particles. Pike extended his hand and focused. The graphing of his skin popped out. The dirt particles in between the folds of his skin, tiny dots attached to his arm hair. He shook his hand as if to free it from germs. "What the heck? Dude, what am I seeing?"

"Your early warning system. Don't scratch the glasses. Be super careful. It took me a year to perfect the magnetism and reflection into a single lens." He scolded Pike like a child, "Dude I am completely serious. If they are not on your face put them back in the case."

Pike turned to Cooper. There was a shadow around his silhouette. "Coop, you have a dark cloud around you. Kind of a fog?"

"All humans do. Yours is white."

Clair and 49 fumbling to place their glasses on staring at Pike then Cooper. Clair admitted, "I see it." 49 stepped closer to Pike, "What in God's name." Pike looked at both arms extended then down his body. "What? White? I don't see anything?"
