Assuming that Michelle was telling the truth, which she wasn't but Lucas didn't know that, two guesses formed in Lucas' mind.
The first one was that Michelle was indeed poisoned, but she had something in her system others didn't have which gave her a certain immunity to poisons.
So, her body was constantly fighting the poison, and when it failed, outbursts she couldn't control would appear.
Second, maybe Michelle wasn't even poisoned.
There was a good possibility that Michelle had an inborn predisposition for inhuman abilities, but they never activated.
And when she fell into the liquid she talked about, maybe those abilities got activated.
Maybe, if someone else fell into the liquid, nothing would have happened to them.
"Try climbing the rope again!" Lucas finally said.
He wanted to see if it would happen again.
That would tell a lot about Michelle's condition.
Michelle nodded and put her hands on the rope again.
She was, too, quite curious.
