Underworld: Awakening

[THUNDER CRASHES]

[GROWLING]

SELENE:

The Vampire and Lycan

clans had been at war

for centuries before I was born,

their conflict

hidden from

the human world.

I was turned

by a Vampire.

Given the strength

to avenge

my family

against the Lycans.

And I was good at it.

[GRUNTING]

Then I found Michael Corvin,

a human that was

turned to neither Vampire

nor Lycan,

but a hybrid

of the two.

Everything changed.

[GROWLING]

Allies turned

enemies,

and the Vampire elders I had

protected for over six centuries

wanted me dead.

We retaliated,

killed the elders,

and for a moment of time

we were safe.

But then

a new darkness arose.

REPORTER 1 [ON TV]:

In the nine days

since the first discovery

of the non-human species,

scores of so-called "covens"

have been uncovered.

Estimates of the number

of infected have skyrocketed.

REPORTER 2:

Military sources confirm

that the primary measures

of defense

against the non-humans are

ultraviolet light and silver,

to which the infected

appear to have fatal sensitivity.

Tents are posted at every

barricade throughout the city.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

A test will be administered

to verify

if you're clear of infection.

SOLDIER 1:

Spray her!

Spray her with silver!

[GROWLING]

SOLDIER 2:
Get it out here!

WOMAN:
Help! Run!

No, no! Run!

[GUNFIRE]

MAN:
We've begun our

second attack wave

using ultraviolet

and silver-nitrate

munitions, which are

deadly to the infected.

REPORTER 1:

Due to the volatile

situation

martial law was declared two hours ago.

[SOLDIERS CLAMORING]

LANE:

Many of us have

lost loved ones to this.

[LYCANS ROARING]

[SCREAMS]

Please know that you cannot

help them or yourself.

REPORTER 2:

It's shocking

that not one

but two distinct

species may have been coexisting

within human populations.

The existence of Vampires and Werewolves

now appear to have actual basis in fact.

REPORTER 1:
The city remains

reluctant to share new

information.

We are getting reports on what

appears to be a mass cleansing.

SOLDIER 3:

Fire!

SOLDIER 4:

Get back! No cameras!

There's no cure.

SOLDIER 5:

There it is!

Engage contact!

[GUNFIRE]

Man down! Man down!

SOLDIER 6:
Cover me!

[SOLDIERS SCREAMING]

[SCREAMING]

SELENE:

The Purge.

Human beings no longer kill each other.

We are the enemy they've been waiting for.

Escape has become

our only chance of survival.

Therefore,

Michael and I are leaving tonight.

Halt!

[POLICE SIRENS WAILING]

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

Whoever it is, they couldn't

have made it very far.

I'll alert CDC to keep an eye out.

They're en route.

There's no way this attack was human.

You don't know that.

Don't know what?

The guy's shredded.

His throat was

in the gutter.

Just let me handle it.

What's to handle?

This has Lycan written all over it.

Detective,

when was the last time you heard

about a reported Lycan killing?

A couple years ago.

How many years

have you been with this department?

What? I've been here

for three months.

Exactly.

You question me less

until you know a bit more.

We clear?

Crystal.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Detective Sebastian.

MAN [OVER PHONE]:

Detective, we've just received a report.

There's been a disturbance at Antigen Labs.

A witness says there was an escape.

They said someone jumped

out of a window.

This is a priority

investigation.

We need you over there ASAP.

We're on our way.

Hey, let's go.

Johnson, you're the lead.

JOHNSON:

You got it, detective. Will do.

Who's in charge?

There's a Detective Sebastian

here to see you, sir.

You'll be relieved to know

the situation is well under control.
