Animus: "The one known as Alex was here..."

S Alex: "He can....sense where I am..."

Animus: "Unfortunately, he might end up meeting his demise before my project actually begins..."
....................................................................
Marvin: "Once I get my hands on that Animus guy...you probably won't have time to give him any thought!"

Alex: "Look, I need him alive, WE need him alive. It's to understand how far gone is the Siders Project..."

Victor: "We'll search The Edispu entirely."

Alex and the others arrived at The Edispu, to find the same as Alex did before...

Alex: "The Edispu, The Edispu, The Edispu..."

Victor: "It's kinda catchy."

Alex: "The Edispu..."

Alex realized something...

"THE UPSIDE!" Alex shouted.

Marvin, without any thought, shot the ceiling of the building!

Alex: "Holy shit!"

Suddenly, the building started to turn upside down...

Animus: *Through speakers* "I'm glad all of you could figure out the secret of The Edispu! Know that this right here, will probably be your end."

Gunshots spread all over the building's insides...

Alex: "Get to cover!"

Alex: "ARGHHHHHH!"

Alex hit the ground with his fist and broke up some coverage...his fist started bleeding...

Victor: "Jesus Christ, Alex! Your hand!"

Alex: "Yeah, don't worry about that."

Alex's hand started regenerating...

Alex: "I feel like, we're close to him!"

Suddenly...
*gun cocks*

Alex: "Huh?!"

Alex quickly spun around and grabbed Animus' gun in the nick of time!

Animus had fired and missed by a few inches...

Alex: "So, now you're resorting to shooting me in the head?"

Animus: "There has to be an end to your senseless rebellion..."

Alex: "VIIIIIIICTO-..."

Animus: "DO NOT ATTACK ME! If you do...you'll die."

Soldiers start emerging from the shadows...

They had Victor and Marvin cornered...

Alex: "Shit, this is fucking great."

Animus: "Drop the weapons, gentlemen."

Victor: *under breath* "Dammit, I hope we live this, Alex..."

Marvin: "Put your gun down, Victor..."

Victor was reluctant at first, but then, he decided it was best to surrender.

Animus: "Soldiers, point every gun on Alex..."

All the soldiers obeyed...

Animus then, walked up to Victor and Marvin...

Marvin: "What are you looking at?!"

Animus: "Hmph, soldiers! Handcuff Victor."

Victor was now handcuffed...

Animus: "Marvin, I'm terribly sorry about your 'sister', to express my condolences..."

Alex: "DON'T HURT HIM YOU SON OF A BITCH!"

Animus handed something to Marvin...

And then,

*gunshot*

Alex: "Ah...WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!"

Animus: "Heh, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Animus: "You, Alex Reyes, give trust to others naively..."

Marvin: "That said, you're under arrest."

Alex: "YOU....BASTARD! YOU SET ME UP!"

Marvin: "You were quick and precise... you felt as though this place had more than what it was leading on... we, just couldn't have you being a threat. Especially, to the Siders Project..."

Alex: "And here I thought you could've redeemed yourself to me."

Marvin: "Me? To you? Don't be a sorry piece of shit, I don't need to prove myself to you!"

Marvin pointed the gun towards Alex...

Alex: "A gun, how interesting, careful you don't miss your shot retard."

Marvin: "I won't, I never would've."

Animus: "..."

Alex in a swift motion jumped high in the air, he then grabbed the guard near him and broke his neck with his handcuffs...

Marvin fired.

Animus: "You idiot! You're not supposed to kill him."

Marvin: "Oh? But bullets barely have any effect on him."

Animus: "Not that gun you're holding... it has the power to kill Siders and their hosts..."

Marvin: "Great, you can find any other piece of shit on his birthday for your project."

Animus: "Hm..."

Marvin quickly chased after Alex...

Alex: "This corner should do."

Alex: "Now, if it's anything like those retro 2010's movies: the guards should all have keys to my cuffs..."

Alex frantically searched the guard but to no avail...

Marvin found Alex...

Marvin: "Well well..."

Alex: "You're a huge piece of shit!"

*gunshot*

Marvin had missed. Alex ran to find a way out...

Alex: *opens door* "This room should *huff* be enough."

He closed the door...

Alex: *thinks* "Huh, what a bizarre thing..."

Alex: "This room feels a bit off..."
