ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PTX6cp1rt
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7blgtRO2ci
Bruh.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qc4dCLr5r
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiNXgjVVMH
Alexis lost her Jersey accent!
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5coBWa1i3Q

Alexis makes a face.
ADAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI3kcezh4Z
What?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNf9vDGwNS
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?

I don’t know, but we need to find out.

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

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5se4ErcFq
Really?
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSEVZM5CKw
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwsQytzNaQ
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.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmW36aEqDG
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1hrq0A9lt
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.

JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3hSkCPymN
About three years.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla1JuRStMg
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PHy3HZM7j
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGekwpJacpF
That’s what I thought.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF4wHFU28r
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQHd8IUTAQ

JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjaLZFiAvX
Really, like what?
WORKER197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HgfXEVAV8
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.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA0BDezHLN
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxpxb4vUHc
Yeah, it was crazy.

That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLHCyDCXvW
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gZVJbnYeQ
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI1E6rGmtq
I don’t know.

ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNGuYKUBIR
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vS2NxQeSs
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrwdGWPW69
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRT7FmFhUY
What did you say?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvj6ZyVEON
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEvTTzjou4
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCwXP4Bsum
And what happened?
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu48Swe62If
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.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw80ENriMo
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?
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu70Qu7QE3s
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jpVTZ6b98
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlRqvZRXFE
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCgFAACjbn
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.

THE ORPHIC197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcJSRJnRw2
I am The Orphic. This city, this world, is mine!
He raises his hand and it glows red. He’s about to strike when more 212 operators fire at The Orphic. Jason gets away.
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.
ADAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tcjBpuAu4
Ricky got hit.
Alexis checks Ricky’s shoulder cap. There’s a gnarly gash.

Oh fuck.
ADAM197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgSAcCxiMq
What the hell was that?
ALEXIS197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS4owYJl8p
I don’t know.
Not too far, Jason collapses. He touches his shoulder.

Ellen!
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.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hpK8svAL0
Thank God you’re awake.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J7lKvH7ak
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.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp70p5XyMTB
The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwPVCSp77s
I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.
ELLEN197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG928FSkBMw
What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jcXxYvvBM
I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.
JASON197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE5YFkdx1u
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.
