“I’m surprised you even found the courage to come here in the first place, what with all the strange goings-on and all,” Simone says as she places the key in the lock and turns it. “S-S-Strange goings-on?” Derrick asks nervously. “Didn’t Mister Boyle tell you about them in his letters?”
-
“How can I trust you anymore? Every word you say is a lie, every promise you make is broken seconds after you make it. How can we continue living like this?” Sandy yells venomously. ”Mummy, I said I’d be a good girl. I promise, and I mean it this time.”

He taps the screen several times before spinning on his seat and pushing himself to another computer screen. He drops his glasses, peering out from above their rim, and his eyes widen. ”WE’VE FUCKING GOT ONE!” He yells jumping from his seat and scrambles across the room to the telephone.

“And I don’t care! We’ve been running test for seventeen years, and nothing has had such a high growth spurt like Delta Thirty-Seven. My recommendation is to burn the whole facility to the ground. Whatever is yielding those results can’t be natural.” ”But, don’t you want to see it first?”
-
“Romeo, we have contact with the package. Do you copy, we have made contact,” Sloan screams into the headset. ”What is the condition of the package?” ”I can’t give you an accurate account of its condition as yet. All I can tell you is that it’s bigger, meaner, and hungry!”
-
He falls to his knees as the energy courses through him, twisting his very DNA in ways it was never meant to be. He screams, as his body begins to morph, stretching, growing into something more. ”WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?” ”Nothing dear doctor, I’ve only removed your facade.”
-
“I was once like you, blind to another way, set upon the path of principles I believe were the righteous of all paths,” he says, as his eyes sparkle in the darkness. “But then I found another path, one that chose me, and gave me these gifts you see now.”

“We have to trust he’ll got that shield down, otherwise we’re all done for!” Oliver screams as he pulls back on the thrusters. The ships hull scraps the defensive grid, sending shudders of energy coursing throughout the craft. “We can’t wait much longer, sensors are picking up enemy attackers approaching!”
-
“Sacrifice everything I’ve worked for, just to satisfy YOUR curiosity? That’s never going to happen,” Tyler says, juggling the blade, from one hand to the other. ”It’s not curiosity, it’s doing the right thing! Too many people have died because of us, but together, we can give their families closure.”
-
“I can’t believe you lied to me!” Cathy yells throwing the vase towards Gregor. He ducks in panic, cracking his head on the corner of the table. For a few moments he stands there dazed, then as he feels the thick, warm blood rush down his face, they lock eyes.
-
Decker strides around Kyle, dragging the scythe behind him, carving a circle in the concrete. ”The thing is Kyle, I never wanted to hurt you, it was your piece-of-shit father I wanted. That son-of-a-bitch took everything away from me, but unfortunately for you, time got that bastard before I could!”
-
“You can’t mean it? Surely you’re just overreacting!” Conner says as he pulls the phone from his ear and stares at the display with bewilderment, before slamming it back. ”I just need another day, ca….” He stops mid-sentence, and his mouth drops open, as a tear runs down his cheek.
-
“When you were a child, do you remember the moment everything changed?” Garrick asks, looking over to Bastic, who stares at him in surprise. “W-W-What do you mean?” “I mean,” he says, placing a small device on the table between them. “Do you remember this? A what it can do?”
-
“Her light, it blinds me,” Scannon says, tightly closing his eyes. “It only burns because you are not worthy of it, the things you’ve done aboard my ship, she does not forget,” Rannak says, lowering the blaster to Scannon’s skull. “We all have our demons Scannon, and mine is call…”
-
“We don’t need to hear the charges, and we don’t need to hear your plea, for we all know you’re guilty of these crimes Douglas. So, there will be no deliberating, there will only be judgment, as the World Engine has spoken, and it has told me of your death!”
-
“You just couldn’t let me win, could you?” Silas yells, spinning around to face a battle worn Damon, his blaster raised towards him. “You need help, Silas.” “GO ROT IN HELL!” Silas yells, lunging towards Damon in a futile attack, as a shot from the blaster rips him in half.
-
“MUMMY!” Fiona cries out as the shape swallows her whole. Janet rushes forward, screaming incoherent words, and crashes into the now solid black mass, which sends her tumbling to the floor. For a few moments she lies there dazed, until Fiona cries out for her again. “GIVE MY DAUGHTER BACK!”
-
“Of course she never knew who I was, although anything would’ve sent her over the edge in the end,” Tanner laughs to himself as he lowers the blaster. “You should’ve seen the look of terror she had on her face, as I choked the life from her.” “It was you?”
-
“Why the hell did I let you talk me into this!” Kevin yells as he storms back to the doorway, and begins pounding on it once again. “ME? This is all your fault! If you’d just been a good neighbour, instead of an arrogant prick, none of this would’ve happened!”
-
“It was simple, no bullshit, just naughty or nice. But then all you bleeding hearts started giving the presents out, deciding to reward those little fuckers regardless,” he says, grabbing Barb by the hair, then slams her head into the ground. “Well guess what, I’m making a comeback this year!”
