ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv9GQkqYJ6
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyuYi2GZfu
Bruh.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUJ0VdbhYV
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.

Alexis lost her Jersey accent!
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTkuKOiSw0

Thanks. And you haven’t heard anything from Montoya, have you?

Alexis makes a face.
ADAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qxjjlhN4Q
What?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wCffQ3uRl
Something isn’t adding up. Montoya wouldn’t just go on vacation without telling us, especially not in the middle of a cartel trying to take over the city.
ADAM
So what do you think happened?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltEzqeiZ6V
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfeFh0oxsC

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9ZeLDx1Mf
Really?
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpNm4b9DAY
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfcCx800ft
Yeah, sometimes. But I prefer how quiet Deacon is compared to New York. I mean, until recently, that is. Gave me flashbacks to New York.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBiHApkbYn
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlGEjEpZzC
It’s a mixed bag. I grew up there but a lot happened too. I actually didn’t want to leave New York, not after everything that happened so it’s nice to hear that it’s doing well.
A GT V8 Mustang pulls up next to them. A 20-year-old male is in the driver's seat. He looks at Ellen and revs the engine.

About three years.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGXAosOMWQ
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwtPkeoXCR
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qELRzqZOX
That’s what I thought.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgfrNUUriM
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbCbns4LzU
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqNt0HM7UF
Tee-Hee.

Really, like what?
WORKER674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb361q9OFEl
The other day, I was walking down Main Street when a strong gust of wind just blew through. It was so random because it was so calm then all of a sudden, bam.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WYuOf1ami
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFJ02jpTJ0
Yeah, it was crazy.

INTERCUT ALEXIS AND ADAM
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15Hd5NNapU
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?

ADAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEQbnrOYVa
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTmfM8BL4q
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmtbPZbSaW
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe3iQ5bAZm
I don’t know.

Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9mrvN8czQ
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIbZfjFgzB
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA5khWSkfd
What did you say?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pcfxZg7tp
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ29KWEqHYl
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG0fsTSbQb
And what happened?
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkpSQwaPwB
It worked, they were faster, stronger, more resilient. Super soldiers. But it got canceled because the syndicate found out about it, and the CIA didn’t want to risk the project getting into their hands. What exactly happened over there?
Beat.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYgPOYqW7P
We got the file from Helix Genetics. A witness that was there said, Javier Madrazo activated a sphere that caused the blast. Would you know anything about a sphere?
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51sT8vns5q
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMsszuKJPr
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLbSEusmZw
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?

A new subject has been brought forward. She put up a bit of a fight but was able to be apprehended. After administering nano-machines, the subject went crazy and escaped into the facility, causing a small surge in one of our accelerators. The resulting surge produced unidentified particles and dark matter.
On the file, “unidentified particles” is circled with an arrow pointed at it. “Tachyons!” is written at the base of the arrow.
Alexis puts the file down.

Reeves is hiding behind cover. He looks over to see The Orphic glow red and release a large blast. He goes back underneath the cover.
The cover is eviscerated, knocking Reeves down. When Reeves looks up The Orphic is gone.
Alexis runs to Adam and Ricky.

Are you guys okay?
Ricky is on the floor groveling in pain. He’s grabbing his shoulder cap.
ADAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fp05pOzxK
Ricky got hit.
Alexis checks Ricky’s shoulder cap. There’s a gnarly gash.

Oh fuck.
ADAM674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1akk1FN3Y
What the hell was that?
ALEXIS674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7JxqRk16e
I don’t know.
Not too far, Jason collapses. He touches his shoulder.

Jason blacks out.

INT. JASON’S BUNKER - MORNING
Jason wakes up. His vision is blurry. He’s looking at the roof. He looks around and sees a blurry figure.
It gets up and walks toward him. Jason’s vision clears. It’s Ellen. Jason sits up. He doesn’t have his mask on.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BIByMMPX7
Thank God you’re awake.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsSjYjVDWZ
How long was I out for? What happened?
Ellen turns on a TV. Isabella Valdez is on the TV. Jason sits up.

Tragedy be-felled Nicholas Reeves’ address to the city last night when a mysterious man who calls himself The Orphic, interrupted the speech killing at least seven Task Force 212 operators and fourteen people who were in attendance and injuring many more.
The TV shows the footage of The Orphic.

The motivation of The Orphic is unclear but what is clear is that he’s not here in peace. In other news the rumors of a vigilante operating in the shadows has been seemingly confirmed as showcased by The Orphic last night. The Raven, a victim in The Orphic’s attack. Who is this Raven and why is he doing this? But more importantly, is he still alive or not.
Ellen turns off the TV. She looks at Jason.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iFdYlceck
The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IaLBKGBFd
I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.
ELLEN674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9UnDtUdBf
What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu2Q3L3ER7
I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.
JASON674Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFcXQR7n4o
All that training, practicing, learning, and I could barely touch him, I’m not good enough to beat The Orphic. But this city is in danger so I can’t stop, I won’t stop until he’s dead.
