00:07Thrusters are dead. We are getting sucked into the black hole. It's over.
00:11Hang in there. I'm booting up the backup power. Nothing can happen to the Gene Archive.
00:25There's no escape. Transfer all power to the core pod. Get ready to eject it.
00:47Let's go.
01:18The hull. The gravity. How did you do that? What are you?
01:24Someone who refuses to accept this ending.
01:29What are you doing?
01:32To rewrite your ending.
01:50Sector 4? But this was three years ago.
01:54I don't know.

04:17Jace
04:27Jace look at me please stay with me
04:30Lyra is it really
04:39I saved him but if you shed one tear for him I will finish what those monsters started
04:48the dark energy is spreading we have to get him to the sector seven underground bunker
04:52but he's too heavy
04:56lead the way
05:03target locked Lyra purge protocol activated
05:22the pod slowing it down but only temporarily we need a military-grade quantum battery otherwise he dies in two
05:30hours
05:35that mech outs outside its target is you
05:40you change the timeline it'll be waiting at the armory
05:43then I'll kill it first
05:53don't ever touch me like that again mono molecular wire
05:59you'd already be in pieces
06:10blue first otherwise you trigger the alarm just like you did at outpost three
06:16how do you know about outpost three nobody survive except me and Jake
06:20because I watched you die there
06:23over and over again
06:34intruder detected

07:28you're bleeding can you still walk move
07:33Laya the bunker shield is failing
07:36there's another Reaper
07:37another one
07:40it's a trap
07:41fall back
07:45Jace doesn't have time for that
07:47I'm going through
08:03the shield is breaking drop it we need cover run I'll buy you time
08:08I don't leave useful assets behind to die move
08:24Evelyn
08:25two minutes out open the gate
08:27Lyra the pod's crashing and there's something in the middle
08:32let's go
08:34go
08:34go
08:35go
09:05They're getting in.
09:41Plug it in.
09:57Erase.
10:10That's Arc One.
10:18Liar.
10:20This world is a comic book.
10:24A comic book?
10:26What are you talking about?
10:27Have you lost your mind?
10:28Who exactly are you?
10:30A reader.
10:32Someone who watched you die a billion times, Lyra.
10:35This is the first time I can actually touch you.
10:50Save the crazy talk.
10:53I need your firepower alive.
11:02Evelyn, what are you doing?
11:09Correcting an era, Lyra.
11:15You were supposed to die on Arc One, sweetie.
11:20You're ruining the story.
11:23Shut up!
11:24Don't you dare use her voice!
11:50Get up!
11:51I don't have time to die here!
11:52And you're not dragging me down!
12:06It's the Reaper's poison.
12:08You have 30 seconds before your heart stops.
12:15Then save me, or I'll take you with me.
12:27My blood is the only cure.
12:30It'll make you faster, stronger, but it comes with a leash.
12:44Once you taste it, you belong to the script.
13:14The gift isn't free, Lyra.
13:16My heart stops, yours stops.
13:19My pain, your pain.
13:23Bad luck, Lyra.
13:25You don't get to throw me away anymore.
13:33What is this?
13:34A hallucination?
13:38No.
13:39Rendering failure.
13:40She's deleting this panel.
13:48Lyra.
13:49You were never supposed to see this.
13:51Broken pieces have to be recycled.
14:05Stop following the rules.
14:07In this world, the glitch is your weapon.
14:14You said he's the most important plug-in, right?
14:29I knew it!
14:30You can't afford to let him die!
14:32If he's in pain, the whole world glitches!
14:39If this is just a play, then I'm walking off the stage.
14:44No.
15:00Now tell me.
15:01Who are you?
15:03No more reader bullshit!
15:04it. Give me a name I can actually understand. You can call me Oriel. Welcome to the real
15:22wasteland, Lyra.
15:55Don't bleed out. I need you functional.
16:25Damn it.
16:39Control your heartbeat. You're distracting me.
16:43Then cut it out, Lyra. Because as long as we're tethered, every time you touch yourself,
16:49I feel it. So tell me, how do you expect me to calm down?
17:02Pain is a great way to kill a distraction. Welcome to my world, Oriel.
17:14The agent is patching the system. She realized pure force can't kill us.
17:21So what's her plan B? Narrative correction. She's sending a reset switch.
17:44Anomaly detected. Target Lyra. Initiating timeline reset.
18:01Touch her and I'll incinerate your code.
18:09Target locked.
18:30Step away from him. Now.
18:35He's aim is the starter. He is the reset trigger.
18:39one touch. And you're dead again.
18:49Lyra. Run. I can't.
19:11Don't look at him. Look at me.
19:19Lyra. Take the shot. Don't let me do this.
19:37Chase.
19:40He's down. But the grid is tearing apart. We have to move.
20:02Drop it. You'll kill us both.
20:04Good. The virus can't run on dead hosts.
20:09See if a hard reboot works on God.
20:13Run...
20:30Jesse tore his own arm off. He was crying.
20:35Fine. You said this is a comic book. A script. So his tears? Was it all just ink on a
20:42page? Is this a joke to you? Watching us bleed? Watching us scream while you readers just turn the page?
20:59Does this feel fake to you? In a billion timelines, you're the only one who didn't surrender. You fought, you
21:06fought, you bled, you killed. I didn't come here to watch a drawing, Lyra. I came for you.
21:22The mark! It burns!
21:35It's not the proxy. Something else found us.
21:56It burns!
22:02I feel bad.
22:02I'm aware of that.
22:06Wraith!
22:07Aawwww!
22:26It hurts, Lila.
22:30Why do we always have to die?
22:34Every single time.
22:46Who are you?
22:47What are you?
22:48I am you.
22:50Who died a billion times.
22:58Is this another trick?
23:00Another simulation?
23:02Answer me.
23:03Answer me.
23:12So I'm supposed to fear this?
23:15My own pain?
23:20The system can wipe the files, but it can't erase the phantom pain.
23:26This is the weight, is the weight of your a billion deaths.
23:31In these billion deaths, you've been crying, haven't you?
23:39Give it back to me!
23:46Fatal error.
23:49Anomaly excludes threshold.
23:52Initiating physical purge.
24:12You didn't just destroy that thing, you reversed time!
24:15Tell the system.
24:17The purge is cancelled.
24:24The purge is cancelled.
24:29You rewrote your own code.
24:32Can you walk?
24:34I'm going back to Sector 7.
24:36To kill Evelyn?
24:37No.
24:38To ask her who wrote this script.
24:43And then, I'm going to find the author.
24:57Keep up.
24:58The proxy is hardwired to the core.
25:01She won't talk.
25:02I'll make her.
25:25Unauthorized access.
25:33Who wrote this script?
25:35Give me a name.
25:43You want to find the author, Lyra?
25:46Ask the man behind you.
25:51Ask him who created your hell.
26:01You wrote this.
26:02You drew the Reapers.
26:04You scripted Evelyn to wear my mother's face.
26:07Lyra.
26:11Is it fun, Orion?
26:13Playing God with our lives.
26:15Does it turn you on to watch us bleed?
26:17Ten billion times.
26:19You sat up there flipping the pages while I was torn apart in the dark.
26:23And now you drop down here playing the fucking hero?
26:26To play the victim?
26:28I was the author.
26:30But I burned the script for you.
26:32I fell into this cage to be with you.
26:35You want to be with me.
26:37You want to feel what I feel.
26:48You played God with my life fine.
26:51From now on, I am God.
26:53As you wish.
26:56My God.
26:57Author privileges completely overbitered.
26:59Initiating protocol blank canvas.
27:02World Weish in progress.
27:04World Weish in progress.
27:05World Weish in progress.
27:08Protocol blank canvas.
27:10Initiated.
27:11Formatning sector 7.
27:15Stand up.
27:26Show them what a God's weapon looks like, Orion.
27:29Kill them all.
27:33As you command.
27:55Use the pain.
28:09The physics engine is breaking.
28:11Gravity is about to flip.
28:18Then let's fall upwards.
28:45Let's fall upwards.
28:53Sloppy. You let it touch you.
29:00Punish me later. Brace for impact.
29:14The system re-writ the core logic. It's trying to bury us in the sketch layer.
29:19A sketch is meant to be erased.
29:28Deploying ultimate anchor. Eradicate the anomalies.
29:38Targets locked.
30:05He is a dead node. End him.
30:09I don't need your permission to decide who gets to live.
30:22Wake up, Jace! Fight the code!
30:29We grew up in the Sector 4 ruins. Help me tear this out.
30:32If my life is a script...
30:37Then I choose how it ends!
30:40Jake!
30:41Jake!
30:45No!
30:45Oh!
31:12Oh, my God.
31:29We have a tower to climb.
31:32Gravity's gone to hell. We have to jump through the debris.
31:42Then jump.
31:47Warning. Una-authorized heat approaching the core. Accelerating deletion.
32:09Hold on.
32:32It's hard code. Brute Force won't dent this. It needs an administrator's signature.
32:38Then sign it.
32:53You have made a mess of my publication, Orion.
32:59You were the architecture, Oriol. You held the pen. Now look at you. A stray dog wearing a glitch's leash.
33:08How pathetic.
33:10It's better than sitting in the dark with you. Writing fake tears.
33:20So you're the one who wrote my billion deaths? Your writing is absolute garbage!
33:27Delete.
33:29You love her pain so much, Orion. Fine.
33:33But she...
33:35Won't remember you.
33:57Protocol, Memory Wipe. Enjoy your new genre, Lyra. A perfect, painless utopia.
34:12Lyra, don't close your eyes.
34:23Good morning, sweetie. Breakfast in bed for the beautiful bride.
34:29Morning, Mom. I slept great. But my wrist feels weird.
34:35It looks perfect, Lyra. Not a single blemish.
34:39Yeah. It's just... It feels too light. Like I forgot to put on a watch or something.
34:44Look at you. Flawless. Jace is going to lose mind when he sees you.
34:59Lylah, what are you doing? You're ruining the skin.
35:01I don't know. It just itches. It feels like something heavy is supposed to be there.
35:10What are you doing here?
35:11What are you doing here?
35:30You look perfect.
35:33Thanks. This place is intense.
35:51I have the patch. It'll vanish in one second.
35:57No marks. That's much better.
36:02I need some air. I'm walking back.
36:12Lyra.
36:14Why can't I?
36:30Why can't I?
36:43Lyra.
36:44You're zoning out on me.
36:53Lyra.
36:54Lyra.
36:59Stand up. You're white as a shield.
37:01It's the pain in my chest. I can feel his pain.
37:05It's a hologram. An art, Proust. You're probably dehydrated.
37:10Stay put. I'll go grab some water.
37:12Who are you?
37:14Why... Why can I feel your pain?
37:18It's just a show. Go home.
37:22Okay...
37:27I know I'll cause you plenty of your pain, too...
37:28Uh...
37:38I'll come...
37:39Give me another one, baby.
37:40Give me another one.
37:43You're asking.

41:12This exceeds standard anomaly parameters.
41:17She is not supposed to remember how to fight.
41:22She just stopped caring about your perfect script.
41:27Final phase initiated.
41:29Execute.
42:12Security breach.
42:14Unauthorized entity within perimeter.
42:20Let go.
42:22Please.
42:33I was the author.
42:35PYRA!
42:51PYRA!
42:53Don't die.
42:54I'm not done with you yet.
42:56As you command, my god.
43:08You're bleeding.
43:10Don't.
43:16Anomaly restored.
43:17You put me in a box.
43:19You put him on a cross.
43:21Now I erase you both.
43:23PYRA!
43:30Your mistake was keeping us both alive!
43:41Combat capability exceeds all parameters.
43:45Full suppression.
43:49Here's the only parameter.
44:00You wore my mother's face.
44:03She was a skin for the proxy.
44:05Nothing more.
44:08She was more real than you.
44:19There she is.
44:21We're not done.
44:41There's a hole in my page.
44:48He's burned his core for you.
44:50Jace burned his battery for you.
44:52Evelyn is in pieces because of you.
44:55And for what?
44:56If you're going to wipe me, get it over with.
44:58Wipe you?
44:59No.
44:59You I'm keeping.
45:01The author's pet gets a special ending.
45:17Well, shit.
45:28You tore a hole in his page.
45:30You tore a hole in his page.
45:31He can't undo that.
45:32Why isn't he chasing us?
45:34Because it's not his page anymore.
45:36It's yours.
45:38We're going down.
45:39Now.
45:56There's something down here.
46:00I see it.
46:01That's from the Ark.
46:03The gene bank you grabbed.
46:06It's real.
46:08That's where we're heading.
46:10That shouldn't be there.
46:31Cut the link.
46:34What?
46:36The wipe is hitting me.
46:38If we stay connected, it'll take you too.
46:42So what?
46:44So cut it loose.
46:46Take the gene bank.
46:48Get out.
46:50You got this far on your own.
46:53You don't need it now.
46:56You came into this page for me.
46:59You burned your core for me.
47:03So don't you dare tell me to leave you behind.
47:14All right.
47:17Together!
47:18Together.
47:27It's going to hold.
47:30I know.
47:36It stopped.
47:41The gene bank.
47:46It was never loaded into his system.
47:50I designed the Ark outside the comics database.
47:57He can't touch anything from there.
47:59Then we stay in the light.
48:04It's pulling the real world towards us.
48:06It's pulling the real world towards us, using the gene bank as an anchor.
48:08How long?
48:10Longer than we have.
48:15Longer than we have.
48:18That object is not in the database.
48:23Where did you get it?
48:25He's going to throw everything he has left.
48:28The whole system.
48:29Once that hits, the gene bank won't hold.
48:40You built this world.
48:43You built this world.
48:43You know how to break it.
48:46I don't have a core anymore.
48:47You gave me your blood once.
48:50Now give me whatever you have left.
48:57It's not enough.
49:03Then we give it everything.
49:05That's not part of the story.
49:12He's not stopping.
49:16Neither are we.
49:20This isn't enough.
49:22Not even close.
49:23I don't have a core.
49:25I can't give you the kind of power that breaks a page.
49:28You built this world.
49:30You built the tether.
49:31You said it binds everything.
49:33So bind this.
49:35Not blood to blood.
49:37Power to power.
49:38If I push what's left of my blood into the tether,
49:41and you push your dark energy in from the other end at the same time...
49:45Or they make something new.
50:08That can't, that power doesn't.
50:17We're close.
50:22If I can't have this world, no one can.
50:27Page zero.
50:44It didn't work.
50:47Not yet.
50:52Take the gene bank.
50:54The green light can still get you through.
50:57Say that again.
51:04The crack is still there.
51:07I can't do this alone.
51:09I can't do this alone.
51:09I can't do this alone.
51:31Go.
51:33We go together.
51:34We go together.
51:36Hold on.
51:37Not letting go.
51:38No.
51:40No.
51:44Money is still there.
51:46Oh, my God.
51:46hmph. ...
52:04Maybe.
52:05You do
52:05me. Oh,
52:05my God. That's
52:07you. Yeah?
52:07No? No.
52:07Yeah.
52:07It's
52:08all.
52:08all.
52:08No. No.
52:08No. Oh,
52:27Still staring at it.
52:29Third week on the list.
52:36I sketched this out before we even moved in.
52:42So either I made it all up, or it already happened.
52:47You're here. I'm here.
53:00The ARC-1 final transmission captured what scientists called an unidentified luminous event.
53:36The ARC-1 final transmission.
53:46Say it
53:48My God
53:50Kiss me
54:16Book tour starts today
54:18I know
54:19You nervous?
54:22No
54:24No
54:40Is it true that you based Orion on someone real?
54:50Something like that
55:01You haven't signed mine
55:05What do you want me to write?
55:07You know
55:45What do you want me to write?
