[music fades]
[rumbling]
[gasps]
[grunts]
[tense music plays]
It's already here?
[gasps]
The city. It's in danger!
Hold it right there!
[music fades]
[tense music plays]
[rumbling]
[dramatic music plays]
[operator] Commander Bob Skylum
has returned from Agarum.
Sir, glad to have you back on board.
[Skylum] Yeah.
Status report.
[Wise] It seems to have lost
some of its initial speed,
but it shows no sign of stopping.
That mutation continues its advance,
inching ever closer to Agarum, it seems.
[Skylum] Mm.
So the cryo-freeze
ultimately proved ineffective.
But is there something else?
Something drawing it to Agarum?
[music stops]
[ominous music plays]
[gurgling]
But where is it headed?
[ominous music continues]
I said stop!
[woman screams]
[man whimpers]
[man screams]
[music fades]
There aren't many people in this district,
but at this rate
[gurgling]
[suspenseful music plays]
No effect.
Huh?
What the hell is that?
Hold on. Isn't that
[dramatic music plays]
It's that thing.
[grunts]
[groans]
[dramatic music continues]
- [Jack] Hey!
- [gasps]
It doesn't even flinch at gunfire.
I think there's something
you're not telling me! What do you know?
But there's a lot I don't know
about your body either.
Avoid making contact with it.
I've seen it kill with just a touch.
[Jack] Shit. How do we
even stop this thing?
A person?
[dramatic music continues]
[Jack] That's
What are you doing? Mary! Run!
[music fades]
[suspenseful music plays]
[music fades]
[electricity crackles]
[crackling stops]
[gurgling]
[gasps]
[dramatic music plays]
[Jack] What the hell are you doing?
Mary! Take cover! Run! Hey!
Hey, Mary! You all right?
Mary, snap out of it! Mary!
[dramatic music continues]
[music stops]
[serene music plays]
Mary.
[music fades]
Mary! Mary! Mary!
Mary!
Jack? What?
Mary, you with me?
Uh
- Huh?
- You scared--
[grunts] What the heck are you doing?
[groans]
What's with you?
[gasps]
[eerie whooshing]
Huh?
[unsettling music plays]
[music fades]
- Oh.
- [exhales]
What's this?
[unsettling music plays]
[Salamandra] Did she do this?
- [drones whir]
- [gasps]
[car doors slam]
[Salamandra exhales]
[unsettling music continues]
[music fades]
[Jack] There's so much
So much I still don't know.
[inaudible speech]
[uneasy music plays]
[inaudible speech]
What exactly was it
that caused her to come to again?
- [Osma] Jack.
- Hm?
[music stops]
Let's confirm the situation.
You remain a suspect
of last year's terrorist incident.
So far, we're clear?
Yeah.
Sapientia has merely
postponed your sentencing for now.
And you are in direct custody
of your commanding officer, Rhys.
I trust you understand
what I'm trying to say.
[sighs] Loud and clear.
JOINT BASE AGARUM
[slapping]
[uneasy music plays]
Where's Salamandra?
In an underground holding cell.
And Mary?
Resting in the other room.
I see.
"Don't kill the contact."
"There's something that I need
to make sure of."
That was your order
to the special unit forces in pursuit.
Now, you're not the type
to just sit back and watch,
which is often
how you get yourself in trouble.
But usually, you take action
to protect people.
This time, it seems different.
Jack, what are you hiding?
[gulps]
[inaudible speech]
[Jack] To protect somebody?
Sharp as ever, Rhys.
Here we go.
So, what happens to her?
What happens to Salamandra after all this?
She'll be escorted back to HQ,
then transferred
to the intelligence department.
I expect the proceedings
will be implemented rapidly.
- Won't be long before the transfer--
- Can you find a way to let me see her?
[gasps] What is wrong with you?
All I'm asking for
is a conversation with Salamandra.
Wait. If I'm not mistaken,
you'e that friend of Philiosio's.
Jacob, was it?
Ah. Well, that changes things completely.
[sighs] Jack, you do understand
the position you're in, right?
I just need to speak with her
for a little while longer.
- I'm begging you.
- [grunts]
[slapping]
[music stops]
- [Georg exhales]
- [Inanna] Huh?
[Clemenza] Not only did you arrive late
with no prior notice,
but your squad
interfered with a local unit's mission.
Be thankful that I'm not
putting you behind bars.
Thank you for your understanding, sir.
And, Major
[machine whirs]
you picked up a whole new problem
along the way, didn't you?
- [door slides open]
- [soldier] Get in here.
You do not have permission
to leave this room.
[Jack] Yeah, yeah. I get it.
[gasps]
[grumbles]
So that's what happens
if you push Rhys too far.
[jaunty music plays]
[inhales sharply] Ow, ow.
Got a problem? A complaint?
Not one bit.
There's the right person
for every job, you know?
Quit whining.
It would have to be at least another
decade before I'd play nurse for you.
Nah, come on. I was never expecting that.
[Zowan] Based on
what Inanna was telling me,
if Rhys hadn't intervened,
the moment you ignored orders
and abandoned the squad
would have earned you
a one-way ticket back to Earth.
Where you'd probably be executed.
The fact that we even have
this limited freedom now,
I mean, it's pretty unbelievable.
Major Rhys has quite a lot of influence,
it seems.
[music stops]
Yes! And we're in!
[gasps]
[Jack] What are they doing?
[uneasy music plays]
[woman] End body scan.
Here, look at this.
It appears that an energy regarded as
highly incompatible with human biology
has somehow entered her body.
This should be impossible.
Furthermore, the footage onscreen shows
Goddard when the unidentified object,
or I suppose when the unidentified
organism first appeared.
A local drone was able to obtain
some data on it. Look here, please.
That would mean
[woman] Yes, the energy patterns
are basically identical.
We don't know how or why,
but it is our hypothesis
that some sort of mutation of the organism
has entered
and then essentially fused with her.
Based on the intel
detailing the organism's vast
and relentless advance towards Agarum,
coupled with the report
of the earlier incident
that occurred within the city walls
What is it?
[music stops]
She may be a core.
Effectively a queen bee,
or something similar for the organism.
That's our fear.
[ominous music plays]
Evidence suggests her condition
is highly dangerous.
The fact that someone like this exists
at all puts the whole world in peril.
[Zowan] What the hell does this mean?
[grunts softly]
[ominous music continues]
[inaudible speech]
Then what about me?
[tense music plays]
[device beeps]
Hm?
The general? Here?
