CK: What Is Happening? Where is Spectre?

SG1: It escaped, killing half of us while doing it.

CK: How did it get out of its cage? Who let it out?

SG1: I don't know. I wasn't there while it happened.

CK:Where is your manager? Was he there?

SG1:Yes he was. I'll shoot him an email. *Typing* Okay. He'll be on in a sec.

CK: *Light tapping* Could you tell him to hurry up, I don't have all day.

SG1: Sure thing. *Typing* And sent.

M has joined your chat room

M: What! What could possibly be so important!

SG1: Sorry sir! The Colonel is on and he told me to.

M: The Colonel! I express my apologies sir. I had no idea.

CK: Apology accepted. Now, tell me more about this 'escape.'

M: We were in the middle of feeding him...

CK: It. It is not human, nor animal. It is an it.

M: Sorry, We were feeding It. My feeder went and got a refill for his water, when he suddenly came to me in a panic, telling me It disappeared. Sure enough, when we got to the cell, It was gone.

CK: Well, that's It's ABILITY!! Were you not briefed? You should have been.

M: I was briefed but *Deep inhale of breath* I didn't believe it. It was impossible.

CK: So you thought that I was lying to you.

M:Yes.

CK: *Sigh* Continue with the story.

M: Anyways, we opened the cell to search for the hole. As soon as the door opened fully, It reappeared and ran toward us. It was terrifying. It was like a wraith, it was barely touching the ground as it streaked towards us like a shadow.

CK: It's designation is literally 'Spectre' so I guess that makes sense.

M: Yes. We tried firing at it, but it dodged all of the bullets somehow. It jumped on the guard next to me. It put it's legs on his chest and grabbed his neck. It was awful. There was a sucking sound, and black veins spread throughout his body. Then It started glowing black. It jumped off of him stood up straight as he fell over, dead. *Shuddering breaths* It stole his life force. It then shot blasts of pure black energy at the other two guards that were standing there just as mesmerized as I was. They instantly vaporized, but not before they were able to let out screams of pain and terror. Spectre then started walking towards me. Scared, I backed up and fell against the wall. I swear, it was going to kill me. But then, It spoke to me.

CK: It can talk?! It must have evolved in it's prison. Half of all of these powers you say were not there when we jailed it. The invisibility and incinerator were the only ones. It wasn't able to move very fast or steal people's spirit. This is very disturbing.

SG1: What do you mean? It can evolve? That is insane! Coming from someone who studies the evolution of animals for a living, It typically takes full generations to adapt and evolve on that level. It did it in- When did you capture It?
