G-Man:
"CLAP CLAP CLAP. You have survived against all expectations .
My Dear Dragon. You are a stone in our shoes here, you know?
We were ready to euthanize you to deliver you of yours sufferings.
But if I actually called you Mrs. FREEMAN, It would make a nice paradox.
I actually am here to clean the mess you have done? But there is something not logic here.
You were supposed to evolve and cure your wounds using your octahedron but it is disabled no? and then create an army with your vore. then USA army and boom boom you die and the country ravaged and the reality is damaged forever. a catastrophe with the transfer of technology and dimensional travel. We'll lose our job and our life , who for us is the same.
But, no,
you endured and survived like that, simply.
But the bad news are for now.
Your friend or clone or I could say your TWIN, you are crushing it. TSK TSK not good.
You have changed, the better for you and the not so good for us if you understand what I mean.
The problem is you WERE a pivot of the universe and you lost it with all the system to go with, Your god, the Cosmic Hand who was your master,as you were only a tool but unexpectedly sentient with a conscience who was definitively corrupted. I think what saved you was the MADNESS. You were friendly with the black pharaoh no? His name I think is Nyarlartothep.
Yes, a real eel who keep gliding out of our clutches. You certainly have eel blood as well as you sort yourself out of such dire situations
You have no more place in this universe, you are young but also very old too old.
As time is stopped, I am not in a hurry .And as you expected we are replacing you by more obedient "pivot" or Balance or Cosmic Dragon or whatever, it's not important.
When you were on the cutting board, you were going to evolve and as you fall unconscious, we have stopped your evolution by convincing your options running out to your Octahedron, your Monster or "GOD" core. As the core has priority on restoring the chaos balance, your options of survival and evolution, the core has abandoned you, letting you the strict minimum of core function to die quick or to die slowly. your core has made the replenishment of energy, we gave him and generated a backup of the core but with upgrades and evolution more suited for a better host. you but without your MADNESS OR SOUL we don't care.
I need an obedient tool and not a tool with freewill. In fact we give you a service in choosing for you than giving you the illusion of the freewill.
So I'll be happy to present you TETRAHEDRON, more powerful, more stable, more obedient, More strong and PERFECT.
Ah the TETRAHEDRON IS A REAL CORE, PHYSICAL AND ORBITING IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM.
IT WAS BUILT BY THE TRON CORPORATION AND AS A DEVOURER ALSO DIFFERENT FROM YOU.
you are a simple aster inside but TETRAHEDRON is a computer assimilator, he replace organic life by digital life, whit a digital world and universe. You'll have no need of a physical body anymore and you'll be eternal. The only difference will be there are no money and it's replaced by memory space. nice no?
Oh, anyway you'll all die here the reactor will explode and your mess will be cleaned. and the world will go without you. Ah this brother of you , say Hi to the DRACOLICH, when he has a little more blood and energy , you will be you in the past with the evolution of NOW . hahaha

And the Gray man left by the door,but the door is in red color this time.
TIME RUN
------------
What to say????
The old scientist :
"I've worked at Black Mesa before and I've seen this people several times now I remember.
All he says is the truth. we have to do something. if not the country and our mode of life are lost. It's an invisible war where you lose all without the impression of losing anything.
You are right, we'll defend you. We'll help you with the ARK system to fight these monsters
Despite your appearances, we don't see you anymore as a monster but a saver, a hope.
Me: but I don't forget all the pain you inflicted me. expect one day to be judged and I 'll be in the rank of the claimers.
I HATE YOU
-------------------
Ok, all go in the MONSTROTANK as it is waiting in the main hangar. When the authorities will catch you, don't forget the promise. if not, for you, it will be DOLL TIME!
It's my creation as a SCIENTIST and not a beast. This little spiky guy will mayve save your ass now and i the future.
Tell the monstrotank is a prototype left by the intruders who wanted to steal the AI computer. You repaired it and make it work for you to escape death under the dome of lower floors. There the nuclear core has melted all in the lower basement. and the lab is lost. the data are safe and samples also. There will be then a lower investigation as the results are saved and they dollars invested saved also.
The men are entering the Mostrotank and are now travelling to freedom.
KKKRKRKKKRRKKKK
PSHHH as the door open.
the scientit rush out the tank :
"don't shoot, don't shoot we are working here ! as they are facing a bunch of US army tanks.
Then the tank dig back before the army tank react.
Noo don't fire!
TSK TSK made the Abrams commander as he didn't shoot the Monstrotank.
A few minutes, after inspecting the lab, I ask
"OCTAHEDRON", can we make working the ARK?
--- ANALYSE ---
--- YES, the structure must have some modifications, made like for the golems.--
Processing :
The walls, broken glass, mess, almost all in the structure is remodelled around various spheres, and all wiring and mana tubes are centralized to the throne room or command center.
Garage, workshop are reoganised so the tanks and Myself as now or evolued can freely roam inside the lab.
After modification, the Ark dimensional antennae is deployed on the left side like a futuristic tower. and at the base various sas are set, meeting airspace standards
The armor is reinforced and a shield generator is placed. Several power unit to be loaded are placed in various places as if I have a power surge loss, the loss is not general but by sectors.
The structure is able to stand in space as well underground and underwater.
The structure is able to bed 3000 people inside and the hangar, 3 armored divisions. and a essaim of drones.
There is too much danger the humans use this technology. The G-Men office will destroy it or use it to kill me and ahh this is tiring,
Octahedron, hide all the inside with heavy hard rocks. All the control panels, doors and systems must be hidden from inside and outside. It must look as a natural cavern with a lake, lava cave, stalactites and stalagmites. Even an expert archeologist must not found the mechanism Only me and my children if I die are able to use it. and send a hint to my family grave for my descendants.
BRRRRR
Moving rock are rotating and appearing from black windows cut in the reality. The rocks are placing themselves in an organized chaos. Then the place looks like a natural cavern in a massive round rock.
---- PROCESS DONE---
Octahedron, process to test the ark moving the structure to a wild life federation natural reserve. yes there is one in MONTANA, there is also volcanic activities and we can have a lot of energy. There are big caves there. Ok lets go to Montana.
During all the modifications, I was in the cavern and outside the structure.
Then hear a sound like the apocalypse trumpets, meaning the membrane of reality is perforated by the ark. Then a gush of gold light surround the egg structure and make like a scan of the environment. Then in Montana mountain, in a huge hole underground in the mountain, the same gold light is scanning the environment then a black shadow emerge from it and pink plasma due to air ionization are appearing, revealing the original structure, then the rock shell, making the Lab or more a Lair looking like integral part of the mountain structure and a passage to the outside is done, but sealed with a big rolling rock from outside. Only a dragon or a good lifter can move it.
The cavern now is empty
I m exhausted and broken, laying down in the bottom of the space occupied by the lab.
I hear in the far tunnels some voices and machines of excavation. The Monstrotank has vanished with the ARK.
I'm alone here, broken and without energy. I must have depleted the nuclear core or it has been absorbed for my evolution.
Then I sense somebody sitting on me and starting patting my neck.
"Well done, you are a paladin, you pass. Now, rest" and I close my eyes.
