The air is full of black. It's hard to breathe, Coughing, crying,
screams for help start to fade, and there stands Adam. Helpless. Wanting to do something but not knowing what to do. Shortly after, a rumbling can be heard then out of no where A second explosion comes from no where knocking Adam and his cell wall down. Everything fades to black.
Adam wakes up under rubble he try's to lift it off. Nothing. He tries again,
nothing. Then he takes his time, he thinks to himself Adam you got this. Try to channel the phoenix in you. Then his eyes start to turn to black. With a deep gravely voice Adam says "I'M IN CONTROL NOW BWAHAHAH!" As several huge rings of blue manifest around his arms out of no where and the rubble that was on top of Adam has now been shot across the hallway. He then gets up, around Adam is a misty black aura that reeks of vengeance Adam slowly walks out of the room there are some guards stuck under a cross beam they're both crying for help. Adam just looks at them, raises his hand, and says "Still a failure?" as he put them both out of their misery. Adam grins and says "You deserved it. Maggots." Adam starts to hover but stops shortly after and hits his head. Adam says in a scared voice "What the hell was that? I saw everything. But I couldn't control It, I killed those two guys. I killed them." Adam then gets up and checks Franks cell, there's a huge hole in the wall with tracks leading somewhere. Adam says "Frank, he's gone, at least he's anywhere but here." He looks at the drop he opens his eyes wide. "I can leave, but it doesn't feel right. Why doesn't it feel right, my chance at freedom, SNOW, WHERE IS HE, I HAVE TO FIND HIM!" Adam turns around and runs into the hallway. He sees two signs hanging from the ceiling the one on the right saying "Containment" , the one on the left "Dining" Adam's immediate instinct was to go find snow, he did walk that way. But Adam thought that there could be people helpless that could die. Adam follows the sign, shortly after a walk down a few flights of stairs he walks down a dark corridor and there's one room that says "Level-1" "Level-2" and "Level-3" the door saying "Level-3" has a keycard lock. Adam decides which door to go through and he decides to go through the level-1 door he walks through and sees nothing but files, he decides to take a quick peek through them and look for K-517, he found his file. He opens it he looks through it and doesn't see anything important but then he sees a part that reads "Original Scientist" he could find his maker! The main scientist is Dr H. Frankler. The assistant scientist name is.. "No it can't be, NO this can't be right! HOW COULD THIS BE!! he will PAY for THIS!" Adam storms out and punches the next door open "Holy shit." He sees someone stuck under a metal pole on fire "I'M COMING!" As he lifts the beam off the person they crawl out from underneath in a spider like form. As its body contourts its wrists invert while the legs goes over its head it uses its arms as a back support and there's a giant SNAP the head hangs loosely from the body and you can see the neck jabbing the skin stretching it to Adam sees stretch marks forming within seconds. Adam stands there frozen, in horror. Adam has never felt this horrified before until now. It starts crawling towards him, slowly. Then it rushes to Adam in a hurry, Adam sprints out the room and shuts it behind him. There's loud bangs coming from behind the door with loud screeches. Adam try's to calm down and comprehend what just happened but before he can do that he hears screams coming from behind the level 3 door, he tries to punch it open yelling "HOLD ON IM COMING HOLD ON" He hurryingly searches for a guard where he finds ones body mush and he sees a keycard coming out of the pile and its cut in half but the barcode is still intact, he brings it over to the scanner and it doesn't work. Adam runs back over to another body which is severed in half he finds a higher level keycard. He scans it and it works, a huge sigh of relief is said and he rushes over to the girl and lifts the bar off the girl and pulls her from under the wreck she's mildly injured but she can walk, Rose she introduces herself, they get out of there as fast as they can. There's ashes flying through the air and he sees a name bag fly and hit him in the face, he sees a badge from a shirt, the name badge says..."NO THIS CAN'T BE!" Adam yells, the badge reads Snow.
