- 9) Veradux : Wait, people still read forums? (Voice: Wait a minute...)

- 6) Veradux : You hippies want to get a guitar out? Start singin' Kumbaya? (Voice: Fum...)
- 7) Sonny : Hey, that reminds me!
- 8) Narrator : Like a magician's reveal, the cassette tape appears in his green hand.
- 9) Sonny : I've got this thing. It plays music, right? I kind of remember. (Voice: Hm?)
- 10) Dr Herregods: A cassette tape! Perhaps you were a music enthusiast in your previous life. (Voice: Hm...)
- 11) Sonny : Hah, no... well, maybe. Someone gave it to me. (Voice: Uh...)
- 12) Dr Herregods: Pass it here. I always carry my portable multi-platform music player with me. (Voice: Hm...)
- 13) Veradux : That don't sound right. (SFX: Tape Jam)
- 14) Dr Herregods: Hm. Strange. Sounds like something's stuck to the ribbon. Let's have a look...
- 15) Dr Herregods: Aha! Gotcha! (Voice: Haha!)
- 16) Narrator : Something hidden inside?
- 17) Narrator : A micro data chip.
- 18) Dr Herregods: ...Exactly who was it that gave you this tape? (Voice: Hm...)
- 19) Sonny : The man who saved my life when I woke up. He was called Louis. I think he was a scientist.
- 20) Dr Herregods: ...Get some sleep.
- 21) Dr Herregods: At first light, we must hurry to my facility.
- 22) Sonny : There's something you're not telling us, Doctor. (Voice: Come on.)
- 23) Dr Herregods: Yes. But it's because I don't know what's going on, either. Once I get to my computer, I will be able to explain. You have to trust me. (Voice: Mhm.)
- [46] Fight 4 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Veradux : Uh oh. We got company. (Voice: Uh oh.)
- 2) Dr Herregods: Titans! These creatures are extremely dangerous. (Voice: Titans!)
- 3) Dr Herregods: The strain will soon undergo a frenzy cycle. They'll be faster and stronger but also... (Voice: You see...)
- 4) Veradux : Vulnerable to attack. (Voice: Hm...)
- 5) Dr Herregods: Exactly. If we can withstand their onslaught, we should be able to kill them.
- 6) Sonny : Then let's get started. (Voice: Alright.)
- [47] Fight 4 End
- ----------------
- 1) Narrator : Finally, they arrive.
- 2) Narrator : A frail looking bamboo shack, with crude but lethal booby traps and noisy computers.
- 3) Veradux : Dont'cha think 'research facility' is a little bit of an overstatement? (Voice: Hey!)
- 4) Dr Herregods: Quiet! I need to run this micro disk through my data sequencer.
- 5) Veradux : At least let us listen to the tape while we wait for you to have a nerdgasm.
- 6) Narrator : The whirring of the tape begins. Music joins the loud hum of computer fans. (BGM: Radio Song)
- 7) Narrator : Numbers and letters fill the screens. Endless cyptic sequences.
- 8) Dr Herregods: Incredible...
- 9) Sonny : What is it? (Voice: What?)
- 10) Dr Herregods: It's a viral strain. I presume it's the strain inside of YOU. (Voice: You see...)
- 11) Dr Herregods: There are additional sequences... They're under the header 'Evolutional Variations.'
- 12) Dr Herregods: This work is incredible. There's only one scientist I know of who could have come up with such innovative strain sequencing.
- 13) Dr Herregods: But... it couldn't be. He's dead.
- 14) Sonny : You mean Louis?
- 15) Dr Herregods: Who? Louis? No... It's someone else. An old friend. (Voice: No...)
- 16) Dr Herregods: There's a lot to take in from this data, but the least I can do is share what I understand so far.
- 17) Dr Herregods: Follow me.
- [48] Fight 5 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: The infection strain inside your veins is totally unique. It's the most advanced one I've seen.
- 2) Dr Herregods: There was a subsection in the data explaining that your strain has the ability to 'evolve.'
- 3) Dr Herregods: Think of your body - or the virus inside it - as having an 'evolve gauge.' You could say the gauge fills while you're in combat.
- 4) Dr Herregods: When the gauge is full, the virus is ready to take on an instant evolutionary modification.
- 5) Dr Herregods: In theory, you should be able to apply a modification to anything in your ability set.
- 6) Dr Herregods: You can decide on what type of evolution you want to use, but only within the choices that your virus happens to present at the time.
- 7) Sonny : Sweet.
- 8) Veradux : Pff. I'll stick to robot armor. (Voice: Pff.)
- 9) Sonny : I think I get the idea, Doctor. Thanks.

- [49] Fight 5 Wave 3 End
- -----------------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: One other thing, Sonny. The evolutions are short term. They'll wear off once you have had a break from combat.
- 2) Dr Herregods: I'm going to need more time to go over the data. I suggest we hold up here in my facility for a few days.
- 3) Veradux : Ain't like we got any other plans.
- [50] Fight 6 Wave 1 Start (Miniboss)
- -------------------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: I'm making good progress through the data on the micro chip, Sonny. Though I'm still no closer to finding out why you were chosen to test the strain.
- 2) Sonny : Well, take your time Doctor. We'll ju--
- 3) Veradux : Uh... we got company. (Voice: Uh oh.)
- 4) Herregods : Gushing gigabytes! These two are supercharged! Altered versions of strains you'll have seen before. (Voice: Gushing gigabytes!)
- 5) Sonny : So, what do we do? (Voice: So?)
- 6) Dr Herregods: Um, well, I suppose... kill them?
- 7) Sonny : Right then. (Voice: Alright.)
- 8) Veradux : Pucker up, fellas. I'm gonna show you some love.
- [51] Fight 6 End (Miniboss)
- ----------------
- 1) Sonny : Phew. That was kinda tough. (Voice: Phew.)
- 2) Dr Herregods: It is as I feared...
- 3) Sonny : What's that
- 4) Dr Herregods: The attack was not random. These strains are too advanced to have just evolved naturally in this environment.
- 5) Dr Herregods: Someone is organizing and deploying test strains. (Voice: Hm...)
- 6) Sonny : So there's some nut job behind all of this zombie experimentation? (Voice: What?)
- 7) Veradux : Sending 'em out to as many unprotected places as possible to try and get rid of any defenses.
- 8) Sonny : Who would do something like that?
- 9) Dr Herregods: I wouldn't know. But if it is answers you seek, we've exhausted the ones we'll find here.
- [52] Fight 7 End (or Fight 8 End)
- ----------------
- 1) Sonny : Alright, so we leave the jungle. But where do we go? Somewhere less hot, I hope. (Voice: Alright.)
- 2) Veradux : I got air-con inside this baby, so I ain't worried 'bout a few extra degrees. (Voice: Hah!)
- 3) Sonny : Oh and by the way, I'm so glad to hear you're really comfortable in there. (Voice: Wow.)
- 4) Veradux : Screw you.
- 5) Sonny : Like, really glad.
- 6) Veradux : Kid's been sayin' dumb crap since I met him. Now all of a sudden he’s got standards. (Voice: Jeez.)
- 7) Dr Herregods: Gentlemen! Please.
- 8) Dr Herregods: The most important thing is that I reach a better technological facility. I must analyze the data on the microchip further.
- 9) Dr Herregods: Perhaps we can head to a ZPCI base. It will be well protected and equipped for scientific research.
- 10) Veradux : No freaking way am I going to a ZPCI base. Not unless it's to burn it down.
- 11) Dr Herregods: But... the ZPCI are an anti-zombie force. Do we not share a common enemy with them?
- 12) Sonny : We do. But we've experienced a dark side of the ZPCI, Doctor. I don't think we should trust them.
- 13) Sonny : Besides, they kinda want to kill me.
- 14) Dr Herregods: ...Very well, I will take your word for it.
- 15) Veradux : I remember some of the locals tellin' me 'bout an old steelworks, east out the jungle.
- 16) Veradux : It's long since abandoned, but a big place like that must've had SOME technology, right?
- 17) Dr Herregods: Ah, yes, I know the one! (Voice: Haha!)
- 18) Dr Herregods: A fantastic idea! We can easily re-route power to its generators and get the place up and running again.
- 19) Sonny : Then it's settled. Let's move. (Voice: Come on)
- [53] Fight 9 Start (Boss)
- ------------------
- 1) Narrator : Not far from the jungle exit, the good Doctor starts to giggle.
- 2) Herregods : Hmm.. yes. YES! Oh, yes. (Voice: Hmm.. yes. YES! Oh, yes.)
- 3) Veradux : Sonny. Doc's bein' weird. (Voice: Uh oh.)
- 4) Sonny : Doctor Herregods, are you alright?
- 5) Dr Herregods: Haha! I'm more than alright. I'm a bloody GE. NI. US! (Voice: Haha!)
- 6) Dr Herregods: Before we encountered trouble at my facility, I was investigating a section in the data titled 'Strain Advancement.'
- 7) Veradux : Spare us the space-talk, Doc. (Voice: Huh?)
- 8) Dr Herregods: There were formulas! For unlocking alternate strain mutations!
- 9) Dr Herregods: I constructed one before we left. I've been waiting for my PortoChemMaker32 to finish binding it.
- 10) Sonny : Please, Herregods. Get to the point. (Voice: Please.)
- 11) Dr Herregods: There's just ONE more thing I need...
- 12) Veradux : Look out guys! Something's coming! (Voice: Careful.)

- 4) Corrupter: The land grows. Land takes.
- 5) Sonny : You can talk. But can you listen?
- 6) Sonny : Who sent you? Why attack us?
- 7) Corrupter: The land must eat so that it can give!
- 8) Veradux : I'm feelin' pretty anti-environmental right about now.

- 2) Dr Herregods: Now then!
- 3) Sonny : ...?
- 4) Veradux : Uhh.. Sonny. The doc's doin' somethin' weird to the body of that thing we just killed. (Voice: Yo!)
- 5) Dr Herregods: A bit more... and a bit more... there!
- 6) Dr Herregods: The best way to test the authenticity of the data is through experimentation! (Voice: Ehehe...)
- 7) Narrator : Is that a needle in his hand?
- 8) Sonny : What are you going to do with that?
- 9) Dr Herregods: I promise it won't hurt any more than dying and coming back to life again did. (SFX: Inject)
- 10) Sonny : Wait, no, I -- AGHH, OW (Voice: Wait, no, I -- AGHH, OW)
- 11) Herregods : Believe, Sonny! Believe in the power of science! (Voice: Believe, Sonny! Believe in the power of science!)
- 12) Dr Herregods: I extracted the mutagens from the super zombie.
- 13) Dr Herregods: It's going to open a whole new world of possibilities to you!
- 14) Sonny : Unngh... I feel sick...
- 15) Dr Herregods: That will go. Eventually. I think.

- 2) Sonny : What's the matter?
- 3) Veradux: Nothing. Just... I've been thinking...
- 4) Veradux: When can I get some new stuff too?
- 5) Sonny : ...What?! (Voice: What?)
- 6) Veradux: You've been out shopping, trying on new clothes and hats.
- 7) Veradux: I mean... I've just been wearing the same old stuff ever since we left the beach. It's getting smelly.
- 8) Veradux: You're gonna have to gear me up too, ya know.
- 9) Sonny : Uhm...
- 10) Sonny : Yeah. Sure, whatever. We'll get you new stuff to wear too, if it makes you happy.

- 4) Sonny : I thought you said it was abandoned? (Voice: Hm?)
- 5) Veradux : It was. Someone's powered it back up already.
- 6) Sonny : Other survivors? The ZPCI? (Voice: ZPCI?)
- 7) Dr Herregods: I propose we find out. I MUST spend more time looking through the data. (Voice: Hm...)

- 4) Veradux : That's pretty smart.
- 5) Dr Herregods: Sonny, you must find a way to ignore or reduce their defenses too.

- 7) Veradux : Back up. He ain't no 'zed.'
- 8) Sonny : Well, I am. But I'm a good one. (Voice: Uh...)
- 9) Kara : No such thing as GOOD zeds.
- 10) Dr Herregods: The evidence thus far suggests otherwise, my dear.
- 11) Sonny : You were running from those other ZPCI. Why?
- 12) Kara : ...
- 13) Veradux : Hot damn! You're a rogue agent, ain't ya?! A ZPCI traitor! (Voice: Wait a minute.)

- --------------------------------
- 1) Kara : They sent us here sayin' we needed to clear the place of zeds. (Voice: So...)
- 2) Kara : Sounded routine enough. But I should've known something was up. The Praetor himself joined us.
- 3) Kara : We get here and there ain't no Zeds. We were here too early. (Voice: You see...)
- 4) Sonny : What? Too early? (Voice: What?)
- 5) Kara : There were WORKERS, doing WORK! (Voice: Damn it!)
- 6) Kara : So then Praetor says the workers were infected. That they were gonna start turning.
- 7) Kara : He gave order to kill them!
- 8) Kara : I don't kill humans! I kill Zeds! (Voice: I don't kill humans! I kill Zeds!)
- 9) Narrator : This time, it's not the gun to his head. It's a finger in his face. The threat is just as deadly.
- 10) Kara : Don't forget that!
- 11) Sonny : We have to stop them from killing more workers.
- 12) Veradux : Damn right. And I wanna meet that Grosk fella.
- 13) Dr Herregods: Yes, well... I suppose we must if I'm to be left undisturbed in the laboratory.
- 14) Kara : You're... going in there?
- 15) Sonny : We have to.
- 16) Veradux : You've gone AWOL. ZPCI won't be takin' you back with open arms.
- 17) Kara : ...
- 18) Sonny : Come with us. Let's get to the bottom of what's going on here.
- 19) Kara : ...Alright. (Voice: Alright.)
- 20) Kara : But don't think this means I'm your friend, Zed.
- 21) Sonny : Fair enough. Let's go, Officer Karantha. (Voice: Come on.)

- 4) Dr Herregods: What? (Voice: What?)
- 5) Kara : We've done training sims with engineered creatures like this.
- 6) Kara : It's got an unstable... uh, fusion reactor or something? At its core. (Voice: So...)
- 7) Kara : The radiation burns them over time. (Voice: You see...)

- 4) Dr Herregods: Why would the ZPCI be involved in some insane zombie CREATION plot?
- 5) Veradux : Yeah. It don't get more anti-ZPCI than that.

- 6) Kara : Oh, great. Nice work. (Voice: Argh!)
- 7) Veradux : God damnit! I knew this place was lookin' all cold and suspicious. (Voice: Hah!)
- 8) Dr Herregods: It isn't my fault! I've been following the map correctly. This place just... isn't charted.
- 9) Sonny : It's too late to turn back now.
- 10) Sonny : We gotta go full steam ahead, into the unknown.

- 4) Veradux : You ain't gonna think they're cute when they've got your throat in their mouth.

- 6) Veradux : Pfff. (Voice: Pfff.)
- 7) Narrator: The man stands. Even in defeat, his eyes are alight with determination.
- 8) Zakk : You are undead... a flesh eater. But you can speak?
- 9) Veradux : That's a long story and too complicated for a snow-eatin' redneck like you.
- 10) Sonny : I'm different. There are others like me, but I don't do bad stuff.
- 11) Zakk : So you think. We must all accept the fire of our will to fight.
- 12) Zakk : 'Good' or 'bad' mean little compared to what you MUST or WILL do.
- 13) Kara : The philosophy alarm is ringing. Move it along, boys. (Voice: Uh...)
- 14) Zakk : There lives a terrible man here, called Arcanis. But he is loved by many.
- 15) Zakk : He has brainwashed folk into worshiping the Frozen God. A vile, ancient being.
- 16) Zakk : I tried to warn my family and friends...
- 17) Zakk : ...but they have been overcome. And I MUST defeat him.
- 18) Zakk : ...even though I may have to kill people I know… and once loved… to get to him.
- 19) Sonny : ...If we help you defeat Arcanis, will you help us get out of here?
- 20) Zakk : Of course. I know these wilds better than any.
- 21) Narrator: The bigger picture is always made up of many smaller ones.

- [80] Fight 3 End

- 1) Sonny : What should we call you, by the way?
- 2) Zakk : I am Zakkiatherous Anerexon. Ninth of my father in the tribe of witch hunters. (Voice: Hm!)

- [81] Fight 4 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Zakk: The followers of the Frozen God have influence over animals, and charge them with powerful spells.

- [82] Return to hub after Fight 4
- --------------------------------
- 1) Veradux: Yo, can we just clear somethin' up here? (Voice: Yo!)
- 2) Veradux: We're lookin' for a bunch of nutjobs who think some old fairy tale's givin' 'em magic powers?
- 3) Zakk : It is not a tale. It is the spirit of an ancient, terrible being.
- 4) Zakk : My ancestors sealed it in the ice, never to threaten our land again.
- 5) Zakk : Over the years, our people forgot about the spirit's true wrath and power.
- 6) Zakk : Some started to think of it as a benevolent god, one that must be released so that it may bless the land.
- 7) Zakk : Now, these fools have a church. And they are led by Arcanis.
- [83] Fight 5 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Frost Hunter: Allow the Frozen God to wrap you in its sub-zero embrace!
- 2) Veradux : Do they even know how stupid they sound?
- 3) Frost Hunter: Like the ice consumes the ground...
- 4) Frost Hunter: I will take the blood of my kin to empower my own!
- 5) Kara : Oh, what? Gross. (Voice: Eww.)
- 6) Zakk : Their curse has more to it.
- 7) Zakk : If they drink the blood of another follower, the Frozen God grants them even more power.
- 8) Dr Herregods: Fascinating... (Voice: Hm...)
- 9) Zakk : We must stop them before they become too powerful!
- [84] Fight 6 Wave 1 Start (Miniboss)

- 1) Inquisitor Leon: Be still, heretics.
- 2) Inquisitor Leon: Offer your cruel hearts to the Frozen God and be spared further suffering.

- -------------------------
- 1) Zakk : We are near the inner sanctum of Arcanis' church.
- 2) Priest: Indeed you are. But not for long, cruel heretics.
- 3) Priest: Soon the Frozen God will come to judge you.
- 4) Zakk : A priest! We must act swiftly.
- 5) Zakk : These followers are the highest rank within Arcanis' church.
- 6) Zakk : If they cast a dark ritual on an ally, they will be granted a terrible unholy power.
- 7) Sonny : I'm getting sick and tired of these guys and their magic powers.
- 8) Kara : Confession's over, priest. Time for the penance. (Voice: Yeah.)
- [86] Fight 8 Wave 2 After turn 4
- --------------------------------
- 1) Zakk : If we kill their allies, they will be unable to cast their unholy spell on them!

- --------------------------
- 1) Arcanis : Welcome, pilgrims, to the church of the Frozen God. (Voice: Welcome, pilgrims.)
- 2) Zakk : Arcanis! I call you to battle, vile witch! (Voice: Vile witch!)
- 3) Kara : Oh, so a dude can be a witch too?
- 4) Veradux : Huh. Did not know that. (Voice: Fum...)
- 5) Dr Herregods: Fascinating.
- 6) Sonny : Fair's fair, I guess.
- 7) Arcanis : ...Witch hunter. So nice of you to attend today's service.
- 8) Arcanis : Have you come to pay respects to your tribe?
- 9) Zakk : Respects...?
- 10) Arcanis : Indeed. Your entire tribe have selflessly sacrificed their blood as part of Frozen God's mighty plans.
- 11) Zakk : No....BASTARD!
- 12) Sonny : You better start praying, Arcanis.
- 13) Arcanis : Undead! The Frozen One calls upon me to rid you from our world.
- 14) Arcanis : I will purge your spoiled blood and free you of your curse.
- 15) Sonny : I'm not cursed... I'm blessed.
- 16) Sonny : When I came back to life, I had a SIX PACK. Do you even know what that means to me? (Voice: Please.)
- 17) Veradux : Pahaha! (Voice: Hah!)
- 18) Zakk : ENOUGH! Arcanis, this ends NOW!
- 19) Arcanis : Very well. Let us see who the Frozen God favors.
- [88] Fight 11 Wave 1 After turn 20
- ----------------------------------
- 1) Zakk : The floating orbs around him are beacons of great magic. They imbue him with restoration!
- 2) Sonny: So we destroy the orbs, and his healing goes away? Too easy. (Voice: So.)
- 3) Zakk : I feel there may be more to it than that...
- [89] Fight 11 Wave 1 Arcanis used Glacier Shock
- -----------------------------------------------
- 1) Arcanis: I call upon the unforgiving cold!
- 2) Arcanis: I beg for the gripping strength of ice!
- 3) Arcanis: Frozen God! Bless me with power none have witnessed for centuries!
- [90] Fight 11 Wave 1 Arcanis below 25% HP
- -----------------------------------------
- 1) Arcanis: ...you do not fear the Frozen God...
- 2) Arcanis: ...you do not see your mortality melting like the frost in summer...
- 3) Arcanis: Foolish heretics...
- 4) Arcanis: I will stand against the undead until my dying breath!
- 5) Sonny : That breath is going to come much sooner than you think! (Voice: Good.)
- [91] Fight 11 End
- -----------------
- 1) Zakk : ...it is finished. Arcanis will no longer brainwash innocents to do his bidding. (BGM: Inspirational)
- 2) Zakk : Thank you, all of you. This was not your fight, but you faced it all the same. (Voice: Thank you.)
- 3) Sonny : Don't mention it.
- 4) Veradux : Yeah. Besides, we just took down a God, right? Don't get better than that when it comes to braggin'.
- 5) Kara : What will you do now, Zakk?
- 6) Zakk : Arcanis took everyone I loved from me.
- 7) Zakk : And with him gone, I doubt any of his surviving followers will take on his mantle.
- 8) Dr Herregods: Then you're out of work, as it were.
- 9) Zakk : It would appear so.
- 10) Sonny : Come with us. We'll kick ass and not worry about what's good or bad. (Voice: Come on.)
- 11) Zakk : I must admit, the fire within you all is strong. I am honored to add my flame to yours.
- 12) Veradux : That sounds weird. (Voice: Hm...)
- 13) Sonny : It's settled, then! (Voice: Alright.)
- 14) Sonny : Now...
- 15) Sonny : Show us how to get out of this place. I'm freezing. (Voice: Uhm...)

- -----------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: Yes, yes... we seem to be back on track.
- 2) Kara : I'm glad to be out of that frozen hell hole. (Voice: Yeah.)
- 3) Kara : Err. No offense, Zakk. (Voice: Uhm...)
- 4) Zakk : My land is not for all. I understand.
- 5) Narrator : In the distance, an enormous building.
- 6) Narrator : It seems as though it is glowing.
- 7) Dr Herregods: There it is! We've made it.

- [93] Fight 1 Start
- ------------------
- 1) Sonny : So this is owned by your employer? (Voice: So?)
- 2) Veradux : Yep. InfectAid owns a whole bunch of labs.
- 3) Veradux : They use 'em to research ways of combating zombies, or preventing the spread of infection.
- 4) Dr Herregods: Indeed. This particular lab specializes in the harvesting of electrical currents for ion defenses.
- 5) Sonny : So we should finally get some others on our side... (Voice: Huh.)
- 6) Dr Herregods: Quite right. I daresay the good researchers here will find you to be very interesting, Sonny.
- [94] Fight 1 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: Wait... something isn't right. These researchers are...
- 2) Zakk : Undead...
- 3) Sonny : What...?! Has the place been attacked? (Voice: What?)
- 4) Celestia : Well, well, well... (Voice: Well, well, well...)
- 5) Sonny : Who... ?!
- 6) Celestia : We were not expecting any visitors today.
- 7) Veradux : Yo! I'm an InfectAid employee! The Hell's goin' on here? (Voice: Yo!)
- 8) Celestia : InfectAid has undergone a few... changes.
- 9) Celestia : Then again, we all have.
- 10) Celestia : I, for example, have changed from a boring, mediocre electro-astrophysical engineer...
- 11) Celestia : ...to a heavyweight bio-mechanical electro-astrophysical super conductor!
- 12) Herregods : What pseudo-scientific trash! There's no such thing! (Voice: Heh!)
- 13) Celestia : Then let class begin. I will teach you the science.
- 14) Kara : Oh jeez. I freaking hate learning. (Voice: Damn it!)
- [95] Fight 2 Wave 1 Start
- -------------------------
- 1) Sonny : Hey! Who are you, lady? (Voice: Who are you?)
- 2) Celestia: I used to be a top engineer in my field. But that person is gone...
- 3) Celestia: I am now Celestia! A servant of light and energy. (Voice: Celestia!)
- 4) Veradux : Are you behind all this super zombie crap?
- 5) Celestia: Not what is, but what will be.
- 6) Celestia: You can think of me as... 'phase two', as it were. (Voice: *Laughs*)
- 7) Celestia: And today, you'll be learning on the job! You will be official InfectAid Quality Assurance Testers!
- 8) Veradux : InfectAid?! What, you're tellin' me I work for the nutcases behind all this crap?! (Voice: Say, what!)
- 9) Kara : How's it feel to fall off that high-horse? (Voice: *Laughs*)
- 10) Kara : Maybe now you'll stop talking trash about us ZPCI. (Voice: Yeah.)
- [96] Fight 3 Wave 3 End
- -----------------------
- 1) Celestia : I really must thank you all. You're making wonderful Quality Assurance Testers.
- 2) Sonny : Enough! We're not your employees! We want answers!
- 3) Dr Herregods: If you are really part of InfectAid, I must demand that you allow us access to your lab!
- 4) Dr Herregods: This young man is a highly advanced re-animated!
- 5) Celestia : I can see. Join the club.
- 6) Sonny : Huh? She's a zombie, too? (Voice: Hm?)
- 7) Kara : Yeah I thought she was a cyborg or something. (Voice: Yeah.)
- 8) Zakk : One can be in all states. Machine, flesh, undead - as long as the fire is lit.
- 9) Veradux : So you're the 'wise sage' archetype in this story, now?
- [97] Fight 3 End
- ----------------
- 1) Herregods : I have been trying to make sense of the data from the tape in conjunction with the super zombies we have encountered thus far. (Voice: Hm...)
- 2) Dr Herregods: At first, the super zombies we encountered were physically advanced, but lacked any sense of intellect.
- 3) Dr Herregods: We are now meeting super zombies with extremely human-like behavior, similar to Sonny.
- 4) Sonny : Grosk acted like he was an employee at the steelworks. Celestia the same.
- 5) Kara : She's also part machine.
- 6) Veradux : You think she's really part of InfectAid?
- 7) Kara : Maybe she WAS. She definitely isn't anymore. (Voice: Uhm...)
- 8) Zakk : People can be changed by others. Their willingness to please can be a weakness.
- 9) Zakk : It makes brainwashing them much easier. This I know from experience...
- 10) Sonny : So what... they let somebody change them into what they are now? (Voice: So...)
- 11) Dr Herregods: It's plausible.
- [98] Fight 4 Start
- ------------------
- 1) Celestia: I've been trying to improve the quality of my creations.
- 2) Celestia: It's remarkable, really, that humans would be able to test my work so rigorously.
- 3) Celestia: I suppose you would not have made it this far if you did not have a superior being on your side.
- 4) Sonny : Hear that, Veradux? I'm superior. (Voice: *Laughs*)
- 5) Veradux : Pretty sure she meant me.
- 6) Kara : Pff. (Voice: Pff.)
- [99] Fight 5 Wave 2 Start (Miniboss)
- -------------------------
- 1) Celestia : I think it's time I put away the box of toys and show you what I'm really capable of.
- 2) Celestia : This... is the Blitz Raptor.
- 3) Herregods: Holy heliocentrism! (Voice: Holy heliocentrism!)
- 4) Zakk : It is an abomination! (Voice: It is an abomination!)
- 5) Veradux : Is that a velociraptor with a crap tonne of guns strapped to its back? (Voice: Woah.)
- 6) Celestia : Not strapped. They're grafted on to its skin. (Voice: *Laughs*)
- 7) Herregods: I have to admit, it is rather... awe inspiring. (Voice: Hm...)
- 8) Kara : We need to kill this thing. Now. (Voice: Ew.)
- 9) Sonny : I'm way ahead of you. (Voice: I'm way ahead of you.)
- [100] Fight 5 Wave 2 End (Miniboss)
- ------------------------
- 1) Celestia: ...
- 2) Celestia: I did not expect the Blitz Raptor to fail.
- 3) Celestia: I will not be disappointed. Disappointment is a weak, human emotion...
- 4) Sonny : It doesn't have to be this way, Celestia. You're a creator! Not a destroyer. (Voice: Stop.)
- 5) Celestia: You don't know me.
- [101] Fight 6 Wave 1 End
- ------------------------
- 1) Celestia: Such is the weak nature of humanity. Simple creatures with primitive emotions.
- 2) Celestia: The creators of technology! The most beautiful thing in existence.
- 3) Celestia: But humans are naive. You do not realize the full potential of technology.
- 4) Celestia: The best fate humanity can hope for is to be eliminated and replaced with a far more superior species.
- 5) Celestia: Part biological, part mechanical.
- 6) Veradux : That's basically me you're describing. Hundred percent human in a tech shell.
- 7) Celestia: Do not compare your pathetic existence to a being such as me. You consume FOOD!
- 8) Celestia: Pointless, wasteful, limited, decomposing FOOD!
- 9) Celestia: I consume... energy. Electricity. Light and power!
- 10) Celestia: The cogs of the universe! (Voice: The cogs of the universe!)
- [102] Fight 7 End
- -----------------
- 1) Carbon : Alright. I don't wanna give this too much time because they're pathetic. (BGM: Badass) (Voice: *Sighs*)
- 2) Carbon : Really, they are. They're pathetic. (Voice: Really, they are. They're pathetic.)
- 3) Carbon : Some... puked up, pretend super-zombie. A cripple in a high-tech tin can! A nerd in tourist shorts.
- 4) Carbon : A skinny little girl with a toy gun and some ice-loving WHACK JOB FROM WHO KNOWS WHERE!
- 5) Carbon : Just pathetic.
- 6) Carbon : Alright? So what YOU do is... fix it. Because if they keep being a pain in my ass, then I gotta start using resources.
- 7) Carbon : And I don't wanna use more resources, Celestia.
- 8) Carbon : Here's what you do. When they come for you, you tell them about the 'SEED Protocol.'
- 9) Carbon : We'll use them to finish off the ZPCI. Hey, maybe they'll kill each other!
- 10) Carbon : I dunno. It IS a perfect plan, though. I come up with the best plans.
- 11) Celestia: I underst-
- 12) Carbon : Seriously. No one comes up with better plans than I do. Let me tell ya, mine are the best.
- 13) Celestia: Y-yes. I understand, Carbon. I won't fail you.
- 14) Carbon : Yeah. You won't.
- 15) Carbon : I gotta get ready for the launch.
- 16) Celestia: Launch?
- 17) Carbon : Oh, nothing. It's nothing. Just a launch party for one of our products. It'll be boring.
- 18) Carbon : Also, you're not invited.
- 19) Celestia: Ah. Well, I'll get back to work.
- 20) Carbon : Yeah. (Voice: Yeah.)
- [103] Fight 8 End
- -----------------
- 1) Sonny : We need to rest. This is proving to be a hell of a fight. (Voice: Give me a break.)
- 2) Kara : Hmph. The dead guy wants to rest. (Voice: Hmph.)
- 3) Veradux : You gotta know when to stop and put a stew on, honey.
- 4) Kara : Call me honey again and it'll be you boiling in that pot. (Voice: Argh.)
- 5) Narrator : The clanging of spoons in bowls. Bellies full. Feet rested. (BGM: Sentimental)
- 6) Narrator : The artificial light makes it difficult to sleep. Two of them remain awake.
- 7) Zakk : Doctor Herregods.
- 8) Dr Herregods: Yes, Zakk?
- 9) Zakk : You are an expert in the undead. Correct?
- 10) Dr Herregods: That's right.
- 11) Zakk : Are you the only man with such knowledge?
- 12) Dr Herregods: Oh, no no. There are other men and women who have dedicated their lives to the study of the reanimation.
- 13) Dr Herregods: In my youth, I would say I was at the top of my game. Myself and two others were highly praised for our commitment to reanimation study.
- 14) Zakk : What became of the two others?
- 15) Dr Herregods: They were obsessed with trying to create alternative strains to the reanimation virus.
- 16) Dr Herregods: Instead of trying to find a cure. Which was what we were MEANT to be doing.
- 17) Dr Herregods: Last I heard they had both been eaten by their experiments. A sad but inevitable fate.
- 18) Dr Herregods: Rest in peace, my colleagues.
- [104] Fight 10 Wave 1 Start (Boss)
- ---------------------------
- 1) Celestia : You have surprised me again and again, little ones.
- 2) Celestia : But now, testing is going to take on a new level of danger.
- 3) Celestia : Sonny. Allow me to appeal to the human in you, that you so desperately wish to keep hold of.
- 4) Celestia : Surrender yourself to me and I will spare your friends.
- 5) Sonny : My... friends...
- 6) Kara : I'm not his friend, you half-robot, half-Zed piece of crap. (Voice: Uh...)
- 7) Veradux : And I ain't goin' nowhere. (Voice: Hah!)
- 8) Dr Herregods: I refuse to let you run this perfectly good lab into the ground.
- 9) Zakk : My flame still burns, and your steel will soon melt like the ice.
- 10) Sonny : My friends speak for themselves, Celestia. (Voice: Heh.)
- 11) Sonny : >You have your answer. Now we're going to make it even clearer!
- [105] Fight 10 Wave 1 Celestia dies (Boss)
- -----------------------------------
- 1) Celestia: Well... we've had a rocky finish, you and I...
- 2) Celestia: ...but we've reached the end of the Quality Assurance Test.
- 3) Celestia: We think the client, ZPCI Praetor Murdock, will be pleased with the results.
- 4) Kara : The Praetor?! He's who you're making all these insane bio-mech weapons for?
- 5) Celestia: Why, yes. As part of the SEED Protocol, the deal was to provide supercharged bio-mech weaponry for controlling the zombie infestation.
- 6) Sonny : And what was the other part of the deal? (Voice: Hm?)
- 7) Celestia: Ha! An enormous super laser that can annihilate entire cities in the blink of an eye!
- 8) Kara : WHAT?! (Voice: WHAT?!)
- 9) Celestia: Now... if you'll excuse me...
- 10) Celestia: I am handing in my resignation.
- 11) Narrator: Death comes for her silently.
- 12) Narrator: Like pulling the plug on a life support machine.
- [106] Fight 10 Wave 1 End (Boss)
- -------------------------
- 1) Kara : That scrap bitch, working for InfectAid... made the ZPCI Praetor a GOD DAMN SUPER WEAPON! (Voice: Damn it!)
- 2) Veradux : Gotta admit. This is pretty whack. (Voice: Gotta admit. This is pretty whack.)
- 3) Sonny : Alright. So we stop the ZPCI. (Voice: Alright.)
- 4) Sonny : Right? No one wants a super weapon, right?
- 5) Herregods : But the ZPCI do not seem involved with the super zombie creation. They attacked InfectAid's steelworks. (Voice: Hm...)
- 6) Zakk : My flame flickers here. Questions behind the super zombies remain unanswered. (Voice: Hmph.)
- 7) Veradux : Ain't gonna be no super zombies, or ANYONE around for that matter, if those crazy-ass ZPCI have a giant death beam. (Voice: Hm...)
- 8) Dr Herregods: I'm getting fed up with this lazy usage of the word 'super' to describe a VERY complex thing!
- 9) Sonny : Screw it. Time do die, ZPCI. (Voice: Alright.)
- 10) Kara : Not so fast. If we try to attack ZPCI HQ head on, we won't stand a chance.
- 11) Zakk : Then we should take the lower realm.
- 12) Sonny : The what now? (Voice: What?)
- 13) Zakk : The lower realm. The ancient tunnels that connected the old world.
- 14) Kara : Hey, that's a good idea. The tunnels connect to ZPCI HQ from back in the days of the Blackhall Keep. (Voice: Yeah.)
- 15) Sonny : Blackhall Keep?

- 1) Narrator : Fingers tapping at keyboards in a blur. Eyes scanning page after page. (BGM: Goofy)
- 2) Veradux : Yo, how much longer you gonna be geeking out in here Doc? I'm gettin' the itch to do some more hurtin'. (Voice: Yo!)
- 3) Herregods : Incredible... Brandt, you old dog! (Voice: Haha!)
- 4) Dr Herregods: I was right to think this work looked familiar when I first saw it in my jungle facility.
- 5) Dr Herregods: It is the work of my dear old friend Dr Sergei Brandt. Like me, he was a leading researcher in re-animation.
- 6) Dr Herregods: Brandt dedicated his life to finding a way for humanity to BENEFIT from the re-animation virus.
- 7) Dr Herregods: He was making immortality.
- 8) Dr Herregods: And it seems the closest he came... was in the strain YOU are made from.
- 9) Sonny : So... I was Brandt's experiment? (Voice: So...)
- 10) Dr Herregods: I suppose so. I'm sorry, but there is no mention of you in his notes. So I can't give you any more details.
- 11) Sonny : Piss. I want to know who I am. Er, was. (Voice: Hm...)
- 12) Kara : What's it matter who you were? What you are now's a dead Zed walkin'. (Voice: Hmph.)
- 13) Dr Herregods: Yes, well... on the plus side, I have another strain upgrade for you!
- 14) Sonny : Whoop-dee-bloody-doo. Does this involve another needle?
- 15) Dr Herregods: Yes. But it will be the last one. Any more after this will make the strain unstable.
- 16) Dr Herregods: It would be far too dangerous.
- 17) Narrator : As soon as the needle is in, his arm begins to pulsate. His body surges with great power. (SFX: Inject)
- 18) Veradux : You alright, Sonny?
- 19) Sonny : ...never been better. (Voice: ...never been better.)

- 11) Zakk : We may seem backwards to you, but my tribe knew much of the rest of the world. (Voice: Hmph.)
- 12) Zakk : It is you city dwellers that know nothing of life outside your bubble.
- 13) Veradux : Oooohh! You got her there, Zakky-boy.
- 14) Kara : Shut it! (Voice: Shut it!)
- 15) Dr Herregods: Blackhall Keep is where the zombie virus began, Sonny.
- 16) Narrator : Those words seem to bring a chill to the air.
- 17) Dr Herregods: No one really knows how. It was such a long time ago.
- 18) Dr Herregods: But somehow, through experiments in science and old magic, they succeeded in resurrecting the dead.
- 19) Veradux : If by succeeded you mean they made an incurable virus that we're STILL fighting a few hundred years later.
- 20) Dr Herregods: To try and prevent the spread of the virus, the folk above ground sealed all the entrances to the tunnels.
- 21) Dr Herregods: The Baron and his Blackhall Keep were left to rot underground as punishment for what he released.
- 22) Dr Herregods: The entrances locked... forever.
- 23) Sonny : But...
- 24) Sonny : We opened the tunnel door at the Thunder Labs and walked straight in, no problem.
- 25) Dr Herregods: Yes, well...
- 26) Kara : It's probably a bunch of horse crap anyway. (Voice: Pff.)

- 4) Kara : ...This is some sort of joke.
- 5) Baron : I am Baron Brixius. It is my honor to receive guests from the upper lands.

- 3) Veradux : Hey, you OK'd it, boss. (Voice: Hey!)
- 4) Zakk : A good tribe leader does not blame their fishermen when the lake is frozen.

- 5) Veradux : You talkin' 'bout me, douchebag?! (Voice: Hey!)

- ------------------------
- 1) Dr Herregods: My theory is that the Baron created the first zombies in order to have an army that cannot be defeated. (BGM: Sad)
- 2) Dr Herregods: After all, the history books portray him as a warmonger.
- 3) Baron : Warmonger?! I am a man of peace! Of beauty and love!
- 4) Baron : I was not creating an army of undead...
- 5) Baron : I was... I needed to...
- 6) Narrator : The silence is heavy.

- 4) Baron: ...and love would be the key ingredient to bind them together.
- 5) Sonny: Maybe your intentions were good, Baron.
- 6) Sonny: But you're totally crazy! Look at the monsters you've made! (Voice: Please.)

- 8) Dr Herregods: Oh dear. It seems we are compromised.
- 9) Sonny : Where are you? Show yourself! (Voice: Show yourself!)
- 10) Farsight : Well... bite me in the neck. Is that Officer Karantha?
- 11) Kara : Lieutenant Farsight... (Voice: Hmph.)
- 12) Kara : Gotta watch out for this one. She's sniper, A-Class. (Voice: Watch out!)
- 13) Veradux : Camper, huh? Got no time for campers.
- 14) Farsight : Karantha, you and your crew better be here to turn yourselves in.
- 15) Sonny : It's MY crew. And we're here to destroy your super weapon.
- 16) Farsight : Super weapon? First I've heard of it.
- 17) Kara : The Praetor's up to something, Farsight. He's keeping you, Vendara, and everyone else in the dark. (Voice: You see...)
- 18) Kara : He gave orders to kill civvies!
- 19) Farsight : Same old Karantha. Stirrin' up trouble to get a bit of attention.
- 20) Kara : Hey, this is different! (Voice: Hey!)
- 21) Farsight : Well, it DOES sound important. You better hurry on in. We could take bets on how far you'll make it.
- 22) Farsight : Just like old times, right dear friend?
- 23) Sonny : My bet is we splatter your brains as far as your scope can see. (Voice: Heh.)

- 9) Dr Klima: I want this 'Sonny' brought to me. Immediately. He is of great importance to my work.
- 10) Vendara : You're supposed to be here for the weapon, Doc! Zombie strains ain't your remit, so I was told. (Voice: Listen.)
- 11) Dr Klima: Well, yes... I...
- 12) Vendara : Or are you sayin' you have an INTEREST in this Zed's DNA?
- 13) Dr Klima: W-well, ah... (Voice: Ah...)

- 3) Dr Klima : Only adaption remained a plausible response.
- 4) Dr Herregods: I refute that! (Voice: No!)

- 8) Dr Herregods: Sonny is a fascinating subject, of course...
- 9) Dr Klima : Well, not quite as fascinating as MY super zombies. Would you agree?
- 10) Sonny : You?! YOU made all the super zombies? (Voice: What?)
- 11) Dr Klima : Of course! Except for you, my dear Sonny. YOU are no doubt the work of Dr Brandt.

- 7) Veradux: Yeah, your pal here knows all about that. He killed my friends on the Silver Coast!
- 8) Vendara: The Praetor had intel... we don't just... we wouldn't...
- 9) Kara : Something's gone WRONG, Captain! The super weapon isn't for killing Zeds... It's for wiping out any place he SAYS there's Zeds!
- 10) Vendara: ...No. The ZPCI doesn't work that way. (Voice: No!)

- 2) Vendara: The attacks on Silver Coast... Tera Jungle... the re-opening of the Firewell.
- 3) Kara : No, you're wrong! It was that Dr Klima, from InfectAid! HE made the super zombies! (Voice: No way!)
- 4) Vendara: Klima...?
- 5) Sonny : Yeah. The same guy who made your Praetor's super weapon.
- 6) Vendara: But... the laser is for taking out Zeds...
- 7) Kara : He's hiding the truth from you! (Voice: Damn it!)

- 11) Kara : Exactly. If you put a bullet in him, then you might as well kill me too. (Voice: Hmph.)
- 12) Kara : I'm still ZPCI.
- 13) Kara : Even if the Praetor isn't.
- 14) Sonny : ...

- 2) Dr Herregods: He was here to intercept Sonny for further study into the super zombie strains HE CREATED!
- 3) ZPCI Praetor: What trash. We wouldn't be involved in a Zed-creation scheme.
- 4) ZPCI Praetor: It's weak-minded, pathetic excuses for humans like YOU who have driven me to this.
- 5) ZPCI Praetor: We can't let there be Zed-lovers running around, fornicating with Zeds and making new types!
- 6) Sonny : That's... not how it's done... (Voice: Uh...)

- 8) Kara : Yeah. He's on the radio. (Voice: Yeah.)
- 9) Dr Herregods: Hmm... Let me try and trace the signal. (Voice: Hmm...)
- 10) Carbon : The testing has gone really well. It's a shame you couldn't be here to see it.
- 11) Carbon : It really works! The humble city of Velware, about six hundred kilometers away... BOOM!
- 12) Carbon : Now there's a lot of dead folk. And a crater the size of my bank account.
- 13) Carbon : Which is freaking huge, by the way.
- 14) ZPCI Praetor: You...

- 20) ZPCI Praetor: ...NO! THE ZPCI WILL NOT BE- (Voice: No!)
- 21) Carbon : Whoa, okay, look - you're getting a little shouty now. It's not good for the blood pressure.
