Uranium? Well that did put a different spin on things. Bruce had heard rumors that a physicist by the name of Oppenheimer had been working with the radioactive stuff, but he'd never read or seen anything that would indicate it could cause such mutations in human beings before. Cancer, sure, he mused, thinking of his own condition. He'd often wondered how much his own exposure had contributed to his once-failing health.
"I don't believe in curses Sam," he replied gently, laying a hand on the boy's shoulder. "I believe in science. But this is too much for me to be able to figure out here and now. I'm going to need to come back, take some samples, do some research, if that's okay."
Bruce didn't like the sound of these Sentinels, nor any corporation trying to force people off their land, but he was currently in no more of a position to do anything about them than he was able to fully analyze the Guthries.
