Do you copy?

Do you copy?

This is vax7 for ker4.

Copy, over.

Haven't heard from you

in a while.

I was worried about you.

Do you send me the morse code?

You are not vax7.

Identify yourself.

I am sum1 of outpost Cerberus.

I sent you the morse code.

It's great to hear you...

To talk to a real person.

Where's vax7?

You were in touch?

Where is he?

He was evacuated.

Some health issues.

You knew him?

What was he like?

What happened to him?

Our communication

is strictly forbidden.

But you talked to him.

W-why--

I found his-- his stuff,

his drawings.

Talk to me. Please.

At least we're not alone

anymore.

You love that stuff,

don't you?

You said the Mac

would come immediately.

It's been days.

It's not easy to organize

a safe passage for the Mac.

Surely you heard about

the attack at lalops.

No point in sending you

a dead Mac, is there, soldier?

Don't worry,

you only have 35 days left.

Hang in there, soldier.

The Mac is on his way.

Copy.

That's what I'm doing, sir.

Code transferred.

Base out.

They told me not to worry.

Again.

I don't trust them, doc.

I know.

--Sh*t.

I'm private sum1 unu force!

Identify yourself!

I am armed!

It's okay.

I'm here to help.

You must seek shelter

immediately.

The next entry point

of the exilium

is 16 kilomets away.

The nonsuch

can't touch you there.

Please, let us go!

You are in great danger.

The nonsuch could attack

at any moment.

If you come with me, I'll get

you and the child to safety.

No!

Wait!

Approaching

defense circle border

do not leave

your operational area.

You dropped this!

Attention, guards,

following the attack

on outpost lalops,

a number of stragglers

were detected on the surface.

They are in great danger

and on the run.

If they enter your zone,

your orders

are to make contact with them

and save them

from the nonsuch.

Looks like they don't

want to be saved!

There are stragglers

in your area.

You must convince them

to leave the surface.

For the safety of exilium.

Remember, our safety depends

on your watchfulness.

When I sleep,

i see children.

They're happy.

They laugh and jump.

Everything is warm and bright

I don't know where

these images come from.

They're not like memories.

They're different.

Someone once told me that

before the chaos,

people could do this

in their sleep.

They called it dreaming.

They said that it was

a special gift...

And that I shouldn't

tell anybody

because they'd diagnose me

as mentally disordered.

But I'm telling you this

because I know you'll keep

my secrets, won't you, doc?

I will take you somewhere

better, I promise.

This is sum1.

Do you copy? Do you copy?

If you can hear me,

please answer me.

It's important.

This is sum1.

I need to speak to you.

This is sum1.

Do you copy?

I can see you.

It's me.

Answer me.

Answer me!

Answer me!!

Answer me!!

Won't answer me.

Toxic emission alarm.

Toxic emission alarm.

Toxic emission alarm.

Toxic emission alarm.

Toxic emission alarm.

Sum1 for ker4.

Do you copy?

Sum1 for ker4.

Do you copy?

Sum1 for ker4.

Do you copy?

You don't wanna talk to me.

But I want to talk to you.

I saw something

in the woods today.

Something is out there.

I think the nonsuch

have penetrated the DC.

I think they got vax7.

You're good.

You listen.

14 days, and then

we're out of here, doc.

It's safe there.

It's safe.

Sh*t.

Nice to meet you, too.

Could you please put away

that f***ing gun?

I'm 7q7, your Mac.

Now can I do my job?

Sorry, i-- I just--

I didn't think you'd show.

Whatever, you don't listen

to the PR, do you?

Lalops was attacked.

Did you see it?

What was left of it.

And the casualties?

No, the ici took care of them

before I got there.

Before that, the nonsuch

took care of them.

So there wasn't much left

to take care of.

Sh*t.

Again, that smell of rat piss.

Hi, king.

Good to see you again.

-You've been here before.

-Okay, let's see.

DNA decoded.

Welcome, 7q7

system check engaged.

-What do we got here?

-Power is unstable.

And monitors for the DC cam

just dropped out.

-That's not mine.

-I know.

It's from the bastard

who was here before you.

-He asked to do my portrait.

-What was he like?

That guy was friends

with a rat.

What else do you know

about him?

I just told you.

He was friends with a rat.

What else is there to say?

He was...

-Kind of unstable.

-Can you access his data?

That's not allowed

and you know it.

I want to show you something.

There. What's that?

That spooky shadow?

It's you, blade man.

It's a glitch.

The faulty overlap

of a previous image.

You thought it was the nonsuch,

didn't you, soldier?

Have you seen one?

What do they look like?

Let's take a look

at the monitors.

They are all intact.

That means all cams

at the DC are down.

They can't be.

I just recharged them.

That's your business.

No go to that and tell me

if the circuits react.

Circuit a?

-Affirmative.

-Circuit b?

Affirmative.

Circuit c.

Affirmative.

--Doc!

Ah, again with the rat.

Man, you are as f***ed up

as the last bloke.

Please don't do this to me.

Please, doc, hey.

Please don't,

don't do this to me.

A doc, that's exactly

what you need, my friend.

I promise I'll take you with me.

I won't leave you hear alone.

Thank you.

Try mouth-to-mouth.

That usually does the trick.

Shut the f*** up.

What did you say?

-Are you crazy?

-Sit down.

-Cool down, partner.

-Sit down.

Tell them you have to turn off

the internal cam

-to do the diagnosis.

-Listen, soldier, I told you--

do it.

I have to shut down cam d

to run a full diagnosis.

Now I want you to bypass

the system.

I want to show me

the internal-cam data

-from before I got here.

-Listen, soldier,

i told you I can't do that.

-I don't know how.

-Then you'd better

figure it out fast.

You don't have the guts.

I knew it.

That's felt good.

That felt even better.

Now apologize to him

before I really get on a roll.

-What?

-You heard.

Sorry.

Look at him.

His name is doc.

I'm sorry, doc.

Es tut mir leid.

Good.

Now access the f***ing data.

Whoa, whoa!

Come on, man,

i need these to work.

Stop f***ing aiming

your gun at me.

You want the data,

i gotta concentrate.

And that thing

makes me nervous.

Just hurry up.

That's it.

The best I can do.

What do you mean?

I bypassed

the first firewall,

but to access this,

we need to know

the personal access code

of a guard.

-All right, my code is--

-no, not yours.

The second firewall

can only be deactivated

by a second soldier's

access code.

This is a leftover

from when we could have fought

six guards on each tower.

That's all I can do

unless you have

another soldier's

personal access code.

Hey, man, I swear,

without that code,

I can't do it.

I don't give a sh*t

whether or not

-you see this f***ing data.

-Get up.

All right.

Doc is bleeding!

You want to know

what they look like?

They not like us or anything

else you have ever seen.
