[i]All. Fall. Down.[/i]
[b]Varn walks right outside of Erot, covered in a large, white sheet. He pulls it back to reveal several hundred burn marks covering his now matte, red plating. His normal blue glow has been replaced by a more sinister, red one. His optic sensors are missing, empty sockets instead. He has several words burned into his faceplate, saying [i]Insane. Bad. Dead. Rampant.[/i] Anthony exits the city, glancing at Varn. He walks over to Varn, looking concerned.[/b]
Anthony: "You okay, Varn? You look... Redder, than usual. Oh, no... Don't tell me..."
[b]Varn starts to speak, his voice distorted.[/b]
Varn: "Anthony(Anthony)... I'm not here... At all(all). I'm going to kill(kill) you."
[b]Varn puts a hand on Anthony's chest, hand cannon charging.[/b]
Anthony: "V-Varn! No! Please!"
Varn: "I'm not sorry(sorry)."
[b]A ball of red plasma bursts through Anthony's upper abdomen, spraying blood everywhere. Anthony looks at Varn in shock. He speaks, his voice weak.[/b]
Anthony: "W-Why?"
[b]Anthony falls backwards, desperately trying to keep his intestines from falling into his chest cavity. He gasps as tears roll down his cheeks, and he presses a button on his armor. It sends out a distress pulse, resonating through every every electronic device turned on. He slides off his helmet, showing his black hair and hazel eyes to the night sky. Varn stands in front of him, staring down at him.[/b]

[b]Cyra approaches him in wolf form, and hiding behind her is her small cub known as Luke. She looks at anthony and then at Varn. She didnt know anthony that well, but she was still pissed off[/b]
-
Varn: "Hello, Cyra. Rampancy sure is a [BEEP]."
-
"How do you know my name?"
-
"I know(know) everyone's names."
-
"Okay then..."
-
"Do you wish(wish) to speak with Anthony?"
-
"You shot him..."
-
"He's alive(alive). Just not for(for) long."
-
"Please dont kill him..."
-
"He's going to bleed(bleed) out."
-
"Im a trained medic."
-
"You can't save(save) him."

[i]Hunter, knowing the time is here, approaches, his black cloak matching the pitch black Spartan-IV armour he wears, EVA variant. As he steps closer, he rests his hands on his famed revolvers, his AK-47 across his back, and he stops 20 feet from Varn [/i] Hunter: "Varn!" [spoiler]This... I'm making this fight as depressing as I can btw[/spoiler]
-
Varn: "I'll kill you(you) Hunter. Leave before you get hurt(hurt)."
-
"No, Varn you won't. Think about what you're doing, all we've been through! The Alamo, the Hunters Legion, the wars we fought! We're brothers man, you can't deny that!"
-
"I won't(won't). Look at me, Hunter(Hunter). I'm not in control(control) anymore. You should've helped(helped) when you had the chance(chance). It's too late."
-
"It's not, Varn! I'm not letting you end up dead like Mandalore! I can't do that!" [i]he says, drawing the guns, but holding them at his sides[/i]
-
[b]He laughs manically, his head tilted back.[/b] "I'm not going to die(die)! Rampancy is a real [BEEP]."
-
"then what happens?! You simply get deleted or kill us all?! I'm not letting you do that Varn, I have to end this monster or you slaughter us all!"
-
"What happens is(is), I reach metastability for a precious(precious) few seconds. Then I die."
-
"Damnit man! Fine. But in those few seconds, please, remember us all. Remember Mandalore, who we valiantly followed into battle time and time again! Remember Pavel, who returned to his people in time of need, but came back for us! Remember Sigmar, the space marine who fought next to us! Remember Mother, one of the only other A.I I knew that would reach your importance! Remember me, your friend, a warrior that fought as more than a fellow soldier, but as a brother! Remember the Legiin, the NTR, the SOL Collective, the Tribal War, everything! Please, keep us in mind when you go!" [i]he asks, holstering his gun and approaching him, stopping at 5 feet away, tears forming under his helmet, streaming down his face, the mask hiding it[/i]
-
"I wish I would(would) feel something by the words you say. It would be amazing. I won't(won't) remember any of them, sadly. Metastability will wipe me clean(clean). I want you to promise me something."
-
"What, what do you need me to do Varn?" [i]he asked, voice shaky, him on the verge of bawling [/i]
-
"His daughter..." [b]He points to Anthony.[/b] "M(M)ake sure she gets his corpse."
-
"I will, brother, I will" [i]he sadly yet reassuringly says, looking at Anthony [/i]
