Chapter 43. The Gamble
----
Inside a black SUV speeding down a rural road, Connors sat behind the wheel while Nolan and Norman Osborn sat in the back, deep in discussion.
They were going over the final report on Jessica's dissection.
"When she initiates the thought of flying," Norman explained, "her pituitary gland secretes a unique hormone. It compresses her cellular structure by creating internal vacuoles within her cells basically making them lighter."
He paused.
"There's also something else. Her cells generate a localized magnetic field. It seems to envelop her entire body, but she can't manipulate it consciously."
"Her cells produce magnetism?" Nolan asked, intrigued. "They're forming closed-loop circuits internally?"
"So it appears."
"Once this mission is over," Nolan said, "we need to fully sequence her genome."
"Agreed."
Nolan shifted his attention to the file in his hand.
