INT. MAINTENANCE TUNNEL – BELOW CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡval9saEWW4
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohRgWPkICg
[The tunnel is barely wide enough for Jason’s shoulders. His flashlight-arm illuminates the narrow path ahead—metal walls groaning softly as the city above shifts in its sleep. There’s a low hum. Not from machinery. Not natural.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkevuRm66c
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtfuvhE6AM
[He presses forward, eyes locked on the streaks of oil and scratch marks.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5iU8BW13y
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH8imI7eZk
[Then he sees it—light reflecting off something wet, just ahead.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6LWOxGxqJ
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8Dg5TZF7a
[He emerges into a cramped side chamber filled with hanging wires, blown-out consoles, and a single Labor bot—slumped, twitching, back propped against a wall.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJuzjckHKN
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhOzIIhxWG
[At first glance: standard unit. Rusted. Oil leaking from the abdomen. But then—Jason freezes. The bot’s chest cavity is… wrong.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPJwUiC219
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT0rVek2a2
[A spiderweb of black tendrils coils out from the seams. They're organic-metal hybrids, squirming faintly—alive. They pulse slowly, like a machine breathing.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6CFRvUyqf

(low, guarded)134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEcBfq0gAC
“…What the hell?”134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpldvYz9MWp
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VgXijoCb6
[The Labor bot’s eyes are dim red, blinking erratically. One arm tries to lift but fails, fingers spasming. Jason steps closer, railcannon aimed. The tendrils respond—contracting inward like they’re hiding.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeosdEkklT
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIJ68zvduS
[He crouches, scanning.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHCSeRiAIt

“That’s no hacking virus. That’s infestation.”134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5LjAzl9jT
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJsDrqtaC8
[The bot jerks its head slightly, jaw creaking. Its voice module is corrupted—glitchy, broken.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqoqOGaR2E

134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKylhGTsuKp
[Jason stares. His hand twitches. For a second, the tough-guy façade slips. Just a second.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB7qLOvVZr

JASON (V.O.)134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO4eyPJUPF
“I’ve fought bots trying to kill me. I’ve fought bots programmed to kill. But this… this looks like something forgot how to die.”134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiybOgYWmA8
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMb7cMfxLA
[Suddenly, one of the tendrils lashes out, narrowly missing his head. Jason blasts it, and the bot shrieks—a distorted, multi-pitched sound that echoes off the walls like metal screaming.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUaR2v9Icp
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjBmdl3lfu
[The tendrils retreat into the bot’s torso. Its frame convulses violently. Jason raises his railcannon again.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCCBciZC3g

134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IB7AjIRh1
[Jason pauses. Then fires a single, clean shot into the bot’s core. It collapses, finally still. The tendrils curl, blackened, twitch once—and die.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Tak6THO6

134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMgPODTLmu
[He pulls a blade from his side holster, slicing off a fragment of the tendril and storing it in a sealed tube. He stands, breathing heavier than usual. Not from exertion—but unease.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55tQ6PExKy
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNNLgDEY8t
[Suddenly—thud. A distant sound from the tunnel ahead. Not footsteps. Something… dragging.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0QUMVliO9

134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9HFSmLodF
[He turns toward the sound, eyes glowing sharper now. One last glance at the dead bot. Then—onward.]134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9Y57YfSuo
