1521 AD, TENOCHTITLÁN

Makkari joins Thena and Narcisa from walking away from the burning city after they finished taking care of the deviants, it took everything in Narcisa to not turn around but Thena squeezing her hand helped her. She wanted to help the villagers but Ajak has told them time after time to not get involved in human affairs, it was getting hard to remember that when the screaming made her tense up.

"Where are the others?" Ajak asks, when the three women join the rest of them.

"We had to separate," Makkari answers.

"There were more deviants than you said," Thena adds in.

"Well, I sure that was a lot of fun for you." Phastos says.

Thena grins, "It was."

Phastos brings up an image of the globe "Once the others kill these last Deviants, we will have eliminated them all from the planet."

The sound of gunshots and the screams of the villagers echo to them, Narcisa flinching and is going to turn around but Thena grabs her shoulder before she can.

Druig eyes begin to glow and before he can start controlling the humans, Ajak stops him, "Don't." She tells him. "We don't interfere in their wars."

"This isn't war, its genocide." Druig replies back. "Their weapons have become too deadly." He turns to Phastos. "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea helping them advance, Phastos."

"Technology is a part of their evolutionary process, Druig. It's not exactly something that I can stop." Phastos defends.

"No you can't but I can," Druig says.

"Stay strong," Makkari signs to him.

"It's too late," Thena says, Narcisa turns to her, taking a step back.

"Thena?" She says, looking at the others but only Sersi was paying to attention.

Thena goes on, "Everyone is going to die," her eyes change to white.

The two girls share a look, Sersi stepping closer. "Are you okay?"

Thena creates her sword, "Thena?" Sersi says and Makkari runs over to Sersi and grabs her, but Thena is still able to hit her.

"Thena, Thena no!" Phastos yells as Thena stabs him. 

Thena goes to stab Narcisa but the latter creates a crystal wall to protect herself. She takes a step back and from the wall, she creates two weapons like Thena's. Thena goes to swipe at her but Narcisa blocks it with her own weapons. "Thena! Snap out of it!" Narcisa blocks Thena's every move, turning around she traps Thena's legs with limestone. Narcisa dissolves her sword and steps to her, "Thena, listen to me, you are safe, it's okay."
