“Leave,” she said calmly, “just go. A recruiting visit was here just three weeks ago and they had no success. The people here don’t much like the Union. Hell, it took me almost a year before any of them would even speak to me, and I didn’t try to razzle-dazzle them.” She quickly scanned the list and produced folders matching each name. “Here,” she said and slid them across the desk, “but they won’t go with you.”

The Union tries very hard to get all Supers to sign on and become active members, but some simply won’t. This is the first Village, and already The Union is constructing others. Either the mutation rate is rising among the Normals, or we’re getting better at ferreting them out. Either way, we need more space.

2. I'll check it out after work.
I quite enjoyed your last one, Biggie. Same narrator, I assume?

5. Is there a possibility to read it?
I have a terrible time with audio texts; I think I miss at least 30% of the story. I'd just like to read the text myself. Is this possible?
