I still think the planet needs a fresh start, you just may have to skip a few million years in the story arc...I have to agree with @drpaladin, there is little now to differentiate our hero's from the enemy, so it seems...

Well...for the lack of better words this chapter is an example of a dichotomy...we see what our hero's are becoming in losing their humanity as evidenced by the following... Lahari released her grip on the two victims she had absorbed, but to her surprise, a man and a woman were looking back at her. Both of them were naked. “Who the fuck are you?” Lahari asked, and she shoved them away from her. They fell onto the grass and both looked very confused. “We’re not…” the woman started to say, “monsters anymore?” but neither of them was given an opportunity to reflect further on their renewed condition. A disc of Tisa’s shadow appeared in front of Lahari, and from it came an enormous serpentine neck, and the thing’s head was only mouth. It chomped down, biting off the top half of the man and the woman. Their waists and legs quivered where they knelt for a moment, as if yet to realize they were no longer attached to bodies, and they slumped to the earth. “Huh,” Lahari mused, “my power seemed to revert them back to their human forms.” Then she laughed. “They didn’t stand a chance against you, Tisa!” Juxtaposed against this... Gawa looked surprised, and she stared at Olona with her blank white eyes. “You don’t think it’s, I don’t know, gross to touch me?” Gawa asked. Olona looked hurt, but not by Gawa’s words. It was as if even the very idea that Gawa, or any of the Biological Shifts, felt untouchable, hurt Olona. “I’m so sorry,” she blurted out, quickly removing her hand from Gawa’s shoulder. “I should not have just reached out and touched you. I apologize.” She then asked, “May I please touch your arm again?” Gawa looked confused and turned her gaze to the others. “I guess so,” she replied with an uncertain shrug. Surrounded by the gore of the destroyed monsters, Olona returned her palm to Gawa’s skin. “I don’t think you’re gross at all.”★ I'm beginning to think it is well past time for the meteor, or a deadly virus...let the planet heal itself and let evolution begin anew...

Perhaps he's gonna meet his maker...none too soon but...it would be my guess it is a Messiah he's familiar with

Christmas went off without a hitch and pretty soon, 9 months later, we may have grandbabies!!!

Michael's eyes are slowly being opened to a new world of possibilities, let's see how this mini-vacation works out...

Onne can only hope that whatever is in the sea takes care of the rest of the messiah's...

Little did I expect to find Dani and Giaco smack dab in the middle of the bridge that spans the Rubicon... Lots of tangents remaining to be explored here and fireworks I'm sure to come...

Oh Bryan...what a confused young man, you've got a tough road ahead of you if you continue to accept the help therapy is offering you...

That she needs help is evident and hopefully Olona is able to restore her missing arm.... Where will this lead? An epiphany?

Is it daniel who's in the jar?

Looks as if Grandad has set his hooks pretty deep...

Despite the obvious reference, with the addition of MaryAnne and the baby Hope, thru MaryAnne they rediscovered a part of their humanity...and a bit of hope for the future. Now, those frisky boys need to get to thinking about a cabin...pronto...Garrett is proving himself to be quite the asset!

Did we forget Ben Dover???

It will be interesting to see what become of Tchama...

I have to believe the strength testing was purposeful, Tchama would need a new arem to match the other I would suspect...

Or Peter Peckerhead, Billy Boner, Tommy Tumescent, someone stop me now....Sammy Sphincter, Lord I need help...

Perish the thought...does Karen have a brother???

I was wondering WTF was up with Dan, and then we met his mother. A great biology lesson here on gene transference...By any chance, is Mrs. Thomas first name Karen, husband Ken???

Never a dull moment and David nearly broke my heart...he'll go far, that much is evident...how old is David?

Just why is store issued apron laced with aluminum, could it be possible Karen or her significant other Ken may have nether regions kryptonite?? He had no name, but the gossiping public dubbed him the Retail Ninja. Armed with his plentiful box-cutter knives, barcode stickers, price gun, and aluminum-laced apron, he was considered formidable. Even with his reputation, evil-doers tried.

Or no place for drips, everything is percolating just find, not your daily grind....

Looks like there will be a unique, complementary collection of talent, a formidable foe to the Messiah's and all others that would do evil...Wonder if we will see The Voice again???

The best laid plans of shifts and bioshifts....

Could this be the beginnings of an organized resistance???

Oh my...well there's a cliffhanger or two or a dozen or so...we all know the heart wants, what the heart wants... And...is Cosmo a blood relation, will we find out if blood is thicker than water...what possibly could go wrong/right now, in several instances/scenarios??? And for those who want to see the bike ride the following can give you an idea... https://mapcarta.com/Scala
