Wait. Say that again.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qZuOIrCKu
How have you been?
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfqqMhcIUx
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXbKm2MGbH
Bruh.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzclYQriaGK
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQw6Nl6GewT
Alexis lost her Jersey accent!

ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrmK7AUo0Z
But I like my smog.
A loud BANG is heard. The car leans down on the front left side. It makes a scraping sound. It comes to a halt.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK6GKwltba

ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4j9Z6VIZ9
Randomly?
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVst3C8YFb
Yeah.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsDnadLrPZ

Yeah. How do you know about it?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZaIlwsdZg

ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmKx7hAjQ0
No. I heard he’s on vacation.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAHN5IQDkz
Alexis makes a face.
ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfSCnJ87W6
What?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3PZUiO7hx
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?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C0WPnbgKX
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

JAMIE46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDXyOzFQnp
Ellen.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZnPXLYT2r
Wait, do you work?

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi89HifOdw
With my mom. I don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night hearing weird noises coming from-

JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTpNnHE9zS
Here you go.
Jason sits down.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEqFfYjokx
So how are things in New York?
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KKmMjDY3B
Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hoLCnIO91
Really?
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBczpeQZsD
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEju6jkPTNq
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.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZHkULpg1q
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7GXZGBU4I
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.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipgGgOsT5q
Hey. If you want to impress my sister with a car it better be a food truck.

Bitch! I was waiting for that. How long were you waiting to do that?
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEAJwwe4zA
About three years.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOSwHmaMLt
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJWQeGwcHH
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdozToFexOa
That’s what I thought.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF9sCf1JD7
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGokyldtDA0
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvGBllelwW
Tee-Hee.

JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt24SHRaKWT
Really, like what?
WORKER46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1RQHH7wgt
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.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YJZIBRCXc
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWXekyUpGT
Yeah, it was crazy.

Old wounds die hard. Jason.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPQYVMEr8v
You know my name? How?
The Orphic starts walking toward Jason.
THE ORPHIC46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX11i2IX4h
Don’t tell me you have forgotten because I haven’t forgotten you! I have been searching for you for a long, long time.
JASON46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio0ZjyYjZ3

INTERCUT ALEXIS AND ADAM
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcHbzC7v8v
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?
ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8yeod5Ro2
Uh, let’s see.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbnsjZiR7w
(reading)46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09EMLxeVuR
The search for the next generation of soldiers is near, in the light of the DeSantos cartel’s recent surge in attacks, we are ready to commence the next phase in our operation. Galen and Mara Walker have volunteered to be one of the first in line.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXyqrOaSCU

ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmROBk8mwtY
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHuCIfbuSS
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxAY52qTKI
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1x78XfH3aO
I don’t know.
Beat.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbCceYdqzu
I think I’m going to have to make a call.

ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7niZMBIvB

ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaHtyYQhPI
Don’t act like you haven’t said worse. Seriously though, what’s up?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gRzpcp2Xh
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP1Zl8gQ9M
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoVMFf37Rf
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FczHSAWoP
What did you say?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5wRKT4UmF
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPPJWrGJV0
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfTjUnUQwd
And what happened?
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B7zhfL1mE
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.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuufP3Bn9c8
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?
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaJZa1TD43
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO4mFGRGLk
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zlcRoUcBr
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoztKXEXCr
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.
ABRAHAM46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvbBWjVGEq

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.

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.

The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.

I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.

What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.

I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.

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.
