Downside of BlackLight
Current mood:  anxious

..Mind Palace. A convoluted means of organizing memories in a familiar location within the confines of the human consciousness. ...Boy knew what this was. He remembered reading it in a book...at least, he thought he did. Was it someone else? He didn't know...and that scared him. That was why he decided to try his hand at this...mind palace thing. By nature, the young man hated what he was. That's just the sort of person the Virus took on, and mimicked. Even so, he's killed, maimed, and consumed BlackWatch operators by the hundreds...all under the orders of Mercer, or to satisfy a deep rooted hatred. 

...Yet...at some moments....when the stress becomes too much, and the human "facade" can't last...

The Palace walls break down, and-

"NO ONE IS SAFE! NOTHING IS SACRED!"

"WE ARE BLACKWATCH!"

Manhattan? Seriously? The baby will probably choke on all the damn smog in that sh*tho-

"WE ARE THE LAST LINE OF DEFENSE!"

"-wanted to live in a big city. I don't know, maybe I'm weird or someth-"

"WE WILL BURN OUR OWN TO HOLD THE RED LINE!"

"-amo come la mafia dannato! Mazzo di italiani a Manhattan insie-!"

"IT IS THE LAST LINE TO EVER HOLD!"

-people are flipping out about the news. What the hell happened that's so damn important?

Oh my god what the f*** happened at the station?

"-estimated thousands dead in a devastating biological attack on Penn Station. The bodies have yet to be identified due to quarantine-"

"-ime suspect is Alexander James Mercer-"

"We seeing action?" "F*** yeah man, red line's been drawn."

"-clothes were attached to the corpse and could not be removed by conventional means. We've already scheduled an autopsy to find out wh-"

"'Woke up?' What the f*** do you mean 'woke up'? Ah, sh*t, get Cross on the li-"

"-rget is not down! I repeat, target is not down!"

"-no body, just a bloodstain. No calls, no sign of struggle, and no sign of our resident superma-"

How the f*** did she disappear with a dead operative in her wake? There's going to be hell to pay for th-

"-ible runner?" "Not likely. Runners can do some crazy sh*t but they can't come back from the dead."

"-ny sign of the perp, and you call in military backup. Do not, I repeat, do not, engage!" "Why? It's just one guy. Nothing the NYPD can't handl-"

"Priority target's designation is now BOY."

The time for waiting waiting waiting is over.

"-nything like Hope?" "No. No, this is going to be much worse."

"Blackwatch can't handle this alone. We need shock troops. Call in the marines."

-ing back home to deploy in Manhattan? Are we going to be attacked?

-on in Manhattan? Why do we need all this f***ing gear in our home-

"-f***in towlheads I bet. I swear it's like nine eleven two point oh, with no airplanes this time."

-ake orders from these black op guys? Who the f*** are they? What authority do they ha-

Why is the sky red like that? What's happening?

"-oly sh*t are these numbers real? This can't be contained-"

"-ese f***ing amateurs are pissing me off." "Deal with it. They go in first to take hits, we go in after to clean up. Unless, you'd like to go first?"

"-fighting real goddamn monsters. Giant apes, f***in giant tentacles, and a guy with giant f***in claws. All of them can f***in toss tanks like they're f***in toys. Welcome to f***in Manhattan, a**hole. Enjoy your stay. I hear the pizza's f***in' great."

"The military said we should stay insi-" "Jesus he's puking blood!" "Oh no, get away from hi-"

"The city's changing. You see the sky over Harlem? It's red. F***ing blood red. It's the apocalypse man, I'm telling you-"

"-stopped this damn thing before. Stopped it dead."

"Saw those gasmask a**holes gun down a whole family. Crying kids, crying wife, begging husband. They just f***ing gunned them down. And laughed." "Jesus Christ, and they're calling the shots here!?"

"Priority one target! Priority one target! I need a goddamn strike packa-"

"What the f*** are we dealing with here, sir?" "Something that necessitates much larger armaments than what we have." "If those don't work?" "We're f***ed."

...Red eyes open wide, as the teen states forward in a catatonic state...leaning against a wall. He couldn't cry, he had no tear ducts. He couldn't vomit, he had no stomach. He couldn't shout, his mind wasn't focused on the illusion of being "human", so he had no voice. ...God...what the f*** is happening to me?
