A/N: I'mma publish 3 chapters cause it's uneven, but....Oh my fucking god...this is the last chapter of the second book. I'm literally taking a 1-2 week break after this. Although, I will promise to re edit the chapters so a few certain characters can get more dialogue. That's also said for the chorus trilogy. I promise once after that, I'll do the third book, which is obviously the trilogy (11-13). I'll put it on the message board when I publish the two first chapters of the chorus trilogy. For now, enjoy this last chapter!

FREELANCER OFFSITE STORAGE FACILITY. PRESENT DAY

The Director is seen sitting alone in a room watching the last known recording of Allison over and over again. Carolina and Alpha walk in as the video plays.

F.I.L.S.S: "Beginning playback."

Allison: (on video) "Leonard, come on, stop it, put that thing down. You're gonna make me late, they're waiting for me."

Carolina: "Hello, Director."

Alpha: "Director...."

Director: "Hello, Agent Carolina, and Alaska. Would you like to watch this file with me?"

Carolina: "No."

Director: "Play it again, F.I.L.S.S."

F.I.L.S.S: "Director?"

The Director smashes his fist onto the arm of his chair.

Director: "Again!"

Carolina: "So, this is what you've become?"

The Director lowers his head in sadness.

Director: "I just need to watch this. I think I have a way... a way to bring her back right this time."

Carolina: "The authorities are hunting you now. If we found you, they will too."

Director: "I just need a bit more time."

Epsilon appears and floats over to the Director.

Epsilon: "No! You've had your fucking time. You have to answer for what you did. To the Meta, to Washington, to Carolina, to Alaska, to me and to her! To Texas!"

Director: "Hello, Epsilon. You came all this way just to see me?"

Epsilon: "I'm here to remember what you've done. Somebody has to!"

Carolina: "Church..."

Epsilon: "Not all of us got off scott-free, Carolina."

Epsilon begins to change into the different AI fragments of the Alpha.

Epsilon: (Epsilon-Delta) "He was brilliant..."

Epsilon: (Epsilon-Theta) "...and we trusted him."

Epsilon: (Epsilon-Gamma) "But he lied to us. He twisted..."

Epsilon: (Epsilon-Omega) "...and tortured us, and used us!"

Epsilon: (Epsilon-Sigma) "Manipulated us for his own purposes, and for what? For this? This...shadow?!"

Epsilon converts back to himself.

Epsilon: "He needs to pay."

Carolina and Alpha look at each other, silently. They both remove their helmet and stares at the Director. The Director removes his glasses and hesitantly looks up at Carolina and Alpha, revealing he has the same green eyes as Carolina.
