A shrill, synthetic whine pierces through the silence—automated systems crying out as their limits approach.

“All units, you’ve got less than five minutes before core temperatures breach tolerance. Initiate retreat protocol now!”

(gritting his teeth, watching steam hiss from his arms)
“You heard the nerd. Fall back! Mark your routes as you go—don’t get cocky.”

“Exit’s behind us, shaft’s stable. Dropping signal beacons.”

The team moves fast, metal limbs straining, servos whining with heat-stressed effort. Flare tags and electronic markers are punched into organic walls—burning through layers of soft flesh and latching in with anchors.

As they abseil back up the elevator shaft, it feels more like escaping the stomach of something alive. The vines around them twitch and tighten, but don’t attack—just observe.

“This place... It wasn’t finished growing.”

“Then let’s not stick around for its birthday party.”

Up, up, climbing back toward light and metal and breathable air. The howling fades, replaced by the rhythmic clanks of boots and grapples.

They emerge through the blasted hole in HQ’s lower level, panting, limbs trailing vapor like they just crawled out of hell.
87Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLoIzoPW8s
Cool air slams into them—clean, industrial, painfully sharp.

SCIENTIST UNIT (on-site)
“Your vitals are off the charts. Coolant flush stations are ready—move!”
87Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98prSLjU2E
The team rushes toward the temporary triage station, collapsing into position, coolant streams hissing as it floods through systems.

JASON, seated on the ground, looks back at the gaping hole behind them. The glow of purple light still faintly visible through the breach.

JASON
(quietly, to himself)
“We found the heart... but we still don’t know what’s pumping it.”

FADE OUT.
