<span class="mu-r">The Hunger isn’t even fighting you anymore. Why should it? A wolf doesn’t need to expend energy on a fresh kill–why are you any different?
You feel something lurch in the periphery of your mind. You’re moving, you think–towards a target, maybe? Anywhere’s better than the lab, now.
Anywhere…
So much for your rebellion, you think, not that you can do much else right now. For all your bluster, for all your struggling, for every blow you’ve taken and riddle you’ve solved, what exactly have you GAINED?
The ire of a deranged scientist and the blood of a friend–no, a loved one, on your hands. At least when Ronnie bit it you barely knew the guy–Pepper, though…
You’re probably the only person she ever really opened up to. And now she’s gone...
It would be so easy to just sit back and relax now–to just hand the reins over to whatever’s taking up residence inside you and watch the whole island burn in your wake.
Worthy, you scoff in a hollow, disembodied thought. Worthy of WHAT?
You’re pouncing now–hopefully on something that deserves it. God forbid this stupid thing triggers when you NEED it to!
Something stirs within you as you feel the comfort of an old friend: ANGER. It’s not FAIR that you had to deal with all this! It’s not fair that tonight of all nights was the one where monsters crashed the party! Just imagine how things would have gone if it was just a NORMAL Grad Bash!
Your blood gets hotter. The Hunger warily stares at your consciousness with unseen senses. It’s watching you…
Pepper gave her life because she was certain something was wrong–hell, she dived alone into an abandoned mine for people that didn’t give a SHIT about her because nothing was more important to her than the truth!
Something washes over you and your mind–something that urges you, no, COMPELS you to keep control!
Pepper died for the truth… and she passed that task on to y</span>ou!
<span class="mu-s">YOU’RE NOT GIVING UP YET!</span>
