Gooz gets up to his feet, shaking his head side to side, attempting to fix his blurred vision. He takes a deep breath and wipes the blood off his face with his ripped up shirt. He looks around, and still weak he opens a portal.
Before he steps through it, he sees movement in the near distance. He quickly makes his way toward it, finally seeing the arm of a young boy struggling to free himself from fallen rubble from the recent fight. Gooz grins his teeth and lifts the large stones off the young boy.
Gooz: Are you ok son?
Gooz helps the boy up, it is Lucky.
Gooz: Your Lucky right?
Lucky: Yeah, what happened? Where is Tobias?
Gooz: Everyone is gone, we failed.
Lucky: What do you mean...
Gooz: Come on, I'll take you back to the TIAMAT building.
Gooz opens a portal and they step through it. They step out in Jack's office, which is covered in web.
Gooz: This isn't good...
Sitting behind the desk, is the Colony. He turns and smiles. Gooz pushes Lucky behind him.
Welcome to my new home.
Oh no, the kids...
Gooz: Now why would you want this shit hole? Why do you think the MBL abandoned it years ago?
Nice try. But I like it here, feels like home. Don't worry about the children, I'll take good care of them. Very good care of them.
Lucky: NO!!!
Lucky runs at the Colony, Gooz barely has enough time to open a portal infront of him.
Gooz: This isn't over, I'll be back!
Gooz then jumps into the portal.
Lucky hits the grass infront of the TIAMAT building hard. Gooz hits the ground a few second later, he slowly gets to his feet, blocking out the pain from before hand.
Lucky: Why did you do that!?!
Gooz: He would have killed you with ease. Havn't you listened to anything Jack has been teaching you? Sometimes, you HAVE to regroup and plan. You and I alone have no chance against that monster...
Lucky: But... (tears fill his eyes) We have to do something... Can't just leave everyone there.
Lucky breaks down crying, Gooz sits down next to him, placing his hand on his shoulder.
Gooz: Look, everything will be ok. I just need a few minutes to think, we'll save them. We will. I promise.
Gooz quickly jumps to his feet and turns when he hears the sound of someone walking closer. Still weak from before, he tries to form his coat but can't.
Gooz: Who is there?
I-2 steps out of the darkness.
Gooz: Jack?
I-2: No, I... Well, I'm his son from the future. I came back in time looking for the MBL and the Snake Headed Son. I have a warning from the future.
Gooz: Well, (Gooz points toward Lucky) we are the MBL, what's left of the MBL anyhow. The Snake Headed Son is stuck in the Institute with a lot of other children. It has been taken over by a villain of invincible power. I'm sorry but your warning is gonna have to wait, because things can't get much worse.
I-2: Well than, I guess that means I'm here to help...
Gooz: Good, we can use some extra power. I have a plan to save the children, but it might take some time. We should head back to the HQ.
The shadows form another portal; that Lucky walks through, Gooz then signs for I-2 to do the same. Gooz looks back at the Institute one last time, before doing the same.
