ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdwajX20JY
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo5dxEEE7I
Bruh.
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfanat1aide
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.

Randomly?
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb43wukj2AU

No. I heard he’s on vacation.70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UyJF26W5y
Alexis makes a face.
ADAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWzNq5sVXJ
What?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJf5jHDTq3
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?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7gi4r0YYO
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nKLS5DCN3

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh8kTLMYlD
Really?
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YidtoDUwN
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplbeF7BKRL
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.
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUh4FDLhfJ
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLw1JqZLnm
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.
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHZHAB8F8L

What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPOnhuo0DY
That’s what I thought.
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZImIJRnX5
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzKfImETPX
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6uoAw8Qi0
Tee-Hee.

JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHndiU4WWD
Really, like what?
WORKER70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4LDrWD0kN
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.
JASON70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDxC2fzYwK
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAazgcp15q
Yeah, it was crazy.

INTERCUT ALEXIS AND ADAM
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoRfGInQyc
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?
ADAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Nqfi7BEr
Uh, let’s see.70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDpLPnGtCT
(reading)70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6NXHzo4ec
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.70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqX58eJGUiD

ADAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWPSmzTd8I
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy6N8T9fGw
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfwpkBQ9vj
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD9BeOor5t
I don’t know.
Beat.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5s6y5Hi5V
I think I’m going to have to make a call.

ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UZMbjqtlI
Don’t act like you haven’t said worse. Seriously though, what’s up?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PrImMsGEd
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYkdLH6ska
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJeodw8ObW
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kbi0NztDN
What did you say?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUiWl2qbgd
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseXJvivfsC
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1myko3cxjk
And what happened?
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRerSgxchL
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.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsjev4JxHR
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?
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcQ3MYWXfZ
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXnVzh5p9B
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64ejjbf89J
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE73bESQ647
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.

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.

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.

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.

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.
