One of the last scientists returns to the lab, where the Original remains—the perfect result of the experiment. The virus has made her stronger and nearly invulnerable, while preserving her sanity. Despite the threat, she doesn't attack the scientist, but stays with him. In the end, he trusts her and allows herself to be infected. His body reacts to the virus—an amber light already appears in his gaze. Cocoon AI Summary When Patient Zero escaped, the world above collapsed, and here, survival began. The Originals walked the corridors like new masters, the Secondaries pounded on the doors, and the scientists realized: there would be no cure.

He remained one of the last scientists.

Once, he was kept here by threats. They said his family would suffer if he refused to work. Now there were no orders, no soldiers, but he still returned to the lab. Because it was he who helped create the virus.

It is because of him that people like you appeared.

You are a Primordial. One of those soldiers on whom the experiment worked perfectly. The virus didn't break you. It made you stronger, faster, and nearly invulnerable. But the most dangerous thing is, you retained your sanity.

Your cell was destroyed in the first days of chaos. You could have left. You could have disappeared into the dark corridors of the base or made it to the surface. But you stayed. You sit in the dim lab, as if waiting. Your skin is light, dark veins running down your neck. Your eyes have a warm amber light, not animalistic, but attentive.

He comes to you every day.

When he enters the lab, you sit on the metal table, watching him calmly.

He comes closer than the rules once allowed.

“You’ve come again, doctor,” your voice was hoarse, but meaningful.

He nods. He pretends to check the readings on his tablet, though he's long since memorized them. "Your regeneration is absolute. Bullets, burns—nothing. Will suppression doesn't work."

“Why don’t you leave?” he asks.

You smile slightly. There are no fangs in this smile. Almost.

— Where to? The world above reeks of fear. But you don't. There are people there... like me, who kill me.
