He cups her shattered skull in his lap and looks frantically around the room, tears running down his face. ”It didn’t have to end this way,” he cries. “IT DIDN’T HAVE TO END THIS WAY!” The blade of the axe crashes forcefully down into his skull. ”Of course it did!”

“We all can’t be heroes Jim, some of us need to be the villain,” Anders says, digging the blade into Jim’s stomach. ”T-T-The federation will come for you. T-They’ll hunt you do-do-down like a dog, everyone you’ve ever c-c-cared for will b…” ”Everyone I ever cared for is already dead!”

“Come on Steven, think it over, put all the pieces together and realise you already know the answer to your question,” he says, smiling broadly. ”Y-Y-You’re h-h-him?” ”In the flesh. Actually, flesh is such a passé word to use, but, it resembles what you bag-of-bones wear, so it will be,”

Her teeth saw together like blades of a chainsaw, tearing at each other, sending chills down his spine. Slowly he eases himself up from the bed, but before he’s fully detached from the bed a hand grabs him tightly, and she stares murderously into his eyes. “There is no escape!”

The metal door slides open and Absolom steps in, flanked by two royal guards. ”I must be hitting above my pay grade, if the Supreme Deity sent his faviroute son,” Reynolds says, his words laced with sarcasm. “You think too highly of yourself Captain Severson, But, that will soon change.”

She stands in the doorway, silhouetted by the hallway light, while thick clumps of vomit fall off her, to the floor. ”Mamma,” she says in a high-pitched, whiney voice. ”W-W-What?” Karen says, raising her head from the pillow. “H-H-H-Honey, a-are y-o-you okay?” ”Mamma, he said he’s coming for your soul.”

“I said, I SEE IT!” Wilks screams, as he turns the ship downward, punching the afterburners, but the Wraith follows him relentlessly. “A little help!” He yells, as his dashboard lights up, alerting him of incoming fire. “No one can help you now, Commander!” A voice hisses over his headset.

“I will devour all you are!” The deformed form of Martin screams, spitting a vile black liquid from his mouth, as he slowly, like an injured animal, makes his way toward Devon. Petrified, she presses herself up against the cabins wall, her eyes growing wider with each slow, demented step.

“Pockets in time?” he repeats, turning towards First Lieutenant Socravic. “Yes, it’s been theorised, but I’ve never actually seen it take place. The dwarf star’s death created a temporal anomaly, that interacted with the particles left from the destruction of the Falcors grav drive.” ”Will it dissipate?” ”That is, unknown.”

The pod crashes into the ground violently, cutting a path through the landscape like a blade through butter, until finally it comes to an eventual stop. For minutes it sits motionless, small sparks erupt throughout its hull, followed eventually by flames. A hatchway explodes open and two figures tumble out.

“I sense it,” Darrius says, looking over towards her, she fights back the tears and pulls her gaze away from his. ”A-A-Are you sure?” “Commander, there are many things in this vast galaxy I am unsure of, his death is not one of them,” he replies. ”Then it’s truly begun.”

Simon nervously places his palm against the board and a substance spews forth, wrapping itself around his hand. He bites down on his bottom lip, hissing with pain as he pierces the flesh. A siren breaks the silence, and then the substance begins to tighten its grip around his hand.

“Lock the god damn bridge down NOW! Or is there a malfunction with your hearing?” Shadforce yells, starring sternly towards Kristoff. ”No sir, my hearing is working perfectly. But, my prime directives overrule your commands, regardless of the attacking war party, eighty-seven crew members are still alive aboard this vessel.”

“Your technology is lacking human, the stars will never be yours. We will hunt you all, like the pests you are, and eliminate your species from existence,” Kreegan says, smiling broadly. “The thing about humans,” Crocker says, opening his hand to reveal a dead-man switch. “Death is a stepping stone.”

“No more silly questions. No more pointless arguments delaying what we all know we’ve gotta do. When I open the fucking door, just BLOODY DO IT!” Stephan yells as he grips the handle. “B-B-But, but I don…” Sierra doesn’t get to finish her sentence as Stephen pulls open the door.

“Just take it like it was meant girl. Your father was a good man, he just made a few bad life choices is all,” Gus says before breaking out in another violent coughing fit. “He killed a woman and her unborn child, how’s that marked down to bad life choices?”

He screams as the pliers are ripped back, tearing off his finger nail. ”FOR FUCK SAKE, I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WANT!” He screams into the hooded man’s face. “Why do you keep thinking I want something from you?” He whispers, gripping another finger nail with the pliers and pulls.
