HARRY RUTHERFORD
Jenny's lack of training was immediately apparent as she highlighted her capabilities. Straight to overkill before they even knew the problem, rookie mutant mistake.
"No claws!" Harry hissed. "For fuck's sake no claws. You run if you ‘ave to but don't even fink about showing them."
Harry remembered that Jenny was a new arrival and probably hadn’t had her induction yet, otherwise she would know about the absolute prohibition about using special abilities anywhere near the Institute. Powers were generally a last resort anyway, anything suspected of being mutant related was directed to the Department of Homeland Security. DHS had a separate section now for dealing with the ‘mutant problem’, the Sentinel Division. No one in government noticed the unfortunate initials were the same as the Sicherheitsdienst, the Nazi’s security service. The last thing the Institute needed was a mutant incident so close to it and SD investigators on the scene.
“There’s only three of 'em, don’t put yourself in danger Dee, okay. We walk on and act casual like.”
