Alone in the Dark Page #4

for genny to come online.

Misfire. Misfire.

No engagement. Hold your fire.

Repeat-hold your fire.

Krash, any updates?

Perimeter defenses in place,

Commander.

Copy that.

Looks like it's a dead-end.

I'll go check it out.

Turner, you said five minutes

ten minutes ago.

Come on.

Where the hell are the lights?

I got it. I got it.

About f***ing time.

Miles.

Readings are stable, sir.

Another dead-end.

Maybe we should double back

and try another tunnel.

No, no, no.

There's got to be

something else here.

Look at this.

It's Abkani.

There's more over here.

I think I found something.

-Marko!

-Marko!

We've got to go down there.

Let's move, people.

How long do we have

to hold them?

Only till dawn.

-That's four hours away, sir.

-That's right.

Incoming!

Electromagnetics around the mine

are off the scale.

Getting too much interference.

Satellite intel is compromised.

Tracking multiple

Zenoe clusters in the area...

mostly centered at...

Fischer, no!

Sir, the generator's gone!

Hold your fire till they reach

the second perimeter.

Commander,

They're already en route.

What is your status?

Can you read me?

Yeah. We're retrieving Marko.

Tell them to hurry up,

goddamn it.

Hold your fire.

Hold your fire.

Hold your fire

till they hit the perimeter.

-Fire!

-Fire!

Faster. Come on.

Oh, God! Help!

Aline!

Hang on! Hang on!

I got you!

Grab ahold!

Get your footing!

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Come on! Move faster!

Come on!

Come on!

Get down there! Jump!

Burke, I'm stuck!

What? Cheung, lay down.

Lay down.

Barr, get over here.

I'm gonna keep pressure

on the wound.

I need you to wrap this now.

Relax.

Everything's gonna be fine.

-Gunships approaching.

-Richards.

Richards, do you copy?

Richards?

All right, Feenstra.

Check on Richards.

Copy that.

I don't think

we're supposed to be here.

You guys, check this out.

It's a warning.

What's the warning?

It says once you make it

down here alive...

you're already dead.

That's comforting.

Miles! Miles!

Burke, go again.

I'm trying to find

a way out of here.

Miles, Krash, anyone.

Burke, go again.

Krash!

Are you getting anything?

Nothing.

I'm getting nothing but static.

Change your frequency.

Try again.

Burke, Miles, come in.

Fall back! Fall back!

We've got to get out of here.

We've got to get out.

Jesus!

Aline!

I got it!

Watch it! Watch her legs!

Watch out!

Shoot it! Shoot it!

Right there!

More?

Aw, Jesus.

She's gone.

Sh*t.

Burke, come on. She's gone.

Come on.

We've got to find a way out.

Come on! Let's move!

Miles, Richards is dead.

Everyone's dead!

All right,

find some high ground.

I'm gonna stay here. Go.

Go!

Watch your back.

Burke.

Something tells me we're not

the first ones down here.

-Let's blow it, Barr.

-Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Feenstra!

God.

Carnby.

It's 713.

They implanted us

with those things.

This isn't happening.

It doesn't make any sense.

We've been trying

to stop something...

that they created

the whole time.

My guys are dying out there

for nothing!

For f***ing nothing!

Goddamn it!

Sir.

You guys, come here.

What's going on?

Aline, give me the artifact.

Yeah.

It's a key.

This could be

our only way out of here.

The answers I've been

looking for my whole life...

could be on the other side

of this thing.

Some doors are meant

to stay shut.

What do you want to do, Carnby?

I say...

we trust the Abkani.

Drop your weapons!

Now move away from the door!

Do it!

Put them down!

You son of a b*tch.

Guns on the floor now!

That's good. That's good.

Now get in here.

Does this place

bring back memories, Carnby?

You were my last failure here.

If you hadn't escaped...

shut down my experiments.

I spent twenty years looking

for the key to that door!

Now give it to me!

Give it to me!

No? What a pity.

You were a fine archaeologist.

Aline, just give it to him.

There's been

enough killing today.

That's fine. Right.

Now get over there!

You never could have

opened the door, you know...

not without this.

Hudgens.

Don't be insane.

Don't open that door.

Hudgens, please,

think about what you're doing.

Don't open that door!

Sh*t.

All right, let's just...

back up nice and easy,

nice and slow.

Go. Go.

Go, go, go!

Sh*t.

Come on!

Come on! This way! Come on!

Commander Burke.

Miles. Richards.

Yonek.

Or any operations. Over.

Can anyone read me?

Sh*t.

Come on! Go, go! Run!

Hey! There's a ladder up here!

How's it look?

It looks like

it could be a way out.

All right. I'm pulling.

-F***. F***!

-What is it?

Detonator's inactive.

The signals not going through.

We'll find another way.

Let's get out of here!

I've got to get back there.

I've got to get closer to them.

You can hear them!

Let's get the hell out of here!

Let's go! Come on!

You guys get out of here.

I'm going back.

Burke, come on!

Burke!

Come on!

They were under us

the whole time.

I don't believe it.

Sister Clara?

The gate was closed again.

But, like the Abkani discovered

there's a price to pay...

for bringing darkness

into the light.

The Abkani people were wiped

off the face of the earth.

And now...

it looks like it's happening

all over again.
