Welcome to Hyde Station, a mining platform floating in the backwaters of SOL's trade route, where the industry of extracting precious metals from asteroids is big business. Down on his luck and desperate to make quota, Jacoby happens upon a "cherry rock". The kind that wouldn't just meet his quota but put him into a sizable financial bonus. But there's a problem. A scan shows a sizable hollow cavity inside, and company procedures are clear: voids must be drilled and tested for potentially explosive gases. That would mean handing it over to a specialty drilling team, and thus, kissing his payday goodbye. Refusing to hand his financial future away, Jacoby ignores his terminal's warning and stakes his claim. Except, his saw cuts into more than just rock. Something was inside...something alive. Jacoby quickly learns that some rocks are hiding more than just precious minerals and trace metals. And when some things are set loose, there is no putting them back. Mankind will never be the same.… (plus d'informations)

It's ok.
Could use some more polish in spelling and grammar. Also, there are times where the texture makes no sense. Examples would be the flashback: if he was attacked with the knife, how did he both keep the knife away and strangle his father who is described as large and powerful? Or when they're trapped by the flight tech. They were in the room when he was securing doors, which means they were on the safe side, yet the tech locks them in and is killed, but somehow Jacoby comes from behind their attacker? He should have been heading for the elevators if I read correctly. The commissary is confusing as well. How is it empty and quiet if also being attacked?

Going forward I hope we get to see the story take a transhumanist direction, and not just for the MCs since this virus should be affecting everyone not displaying influenza. Especially since said virus is clearly not what humanity thinks of as science.
It kind of reminds me of the proto molecule from The Expanse, though not as widespread in application.
Definitely should expand the POVs to include Lex and Soraya. It'll be cool to see them all gain their own abilities like Jacoby seems to have. ( )
