Fire. The light of the fires filled screens, into the dark room. Havoc reeked through the cities, countries, even the seas. A man cursed and turned to the woman in the back of the room. "Now do you see what happens?!" He yelled. "This is all your doing!"
The woman growled. "They needed to know. They needed to hear the truth." She spat. The man laughed maniacally.
"Now no one will." He waved his hand and his right-hand came in. "Kill them." He said, not taking his eyes off the woman.
"Sir?"
"Do it. Keep the children five and younger, and the women are near to giving birth."
"A-and the children's mothers?"
"Yes kill then too. Once the mothers give birth, kill them as well." His right-hand nodded solemnly, his face tinted green, and left the room.

"I hope we will meet again, my dear, in another life." He said as he closed the door. He couldn't hear her response, but he saw her bite her thumb at him.
He laughed. "She sure is a feisty one." He said to himself. Loud pops and screams sounded on the monitors, and finally an explosion.
