Memory One "Tyson Williams eliminated." The voice is female and over a radio. You run out of a pair of glass doors. "Excellent work, 47." You flip over the rail of the balcony you've found yourself on and edge along it as voices sound from above you.

"Um... Mister Williams isn't looking too great."

"You think it's serious."

"What like malaria or something?"

"We all got shots before coming here."

You continue around the balcony. The voices continue, talking about how the man probably just has a fever, made worse with the heat. You flip over the ledge and run past.

The skies are dark, the wind is picking up. Waves crash against the shore as you run down wooden steps onto the sand below. You run across the sand to a plane, half landed in the water.

You climb in and fly off into the clouded skies.

Memory Two You are filled with a feeling of dread, but it's quickly fading already. The day is nearing its end and you, a boy with no name other than a double-digit number, are going back to your room.

Whatever awful thing that had you filled with fear and awe is dismissed as he reach up to a cage where something white and fluffy sat. You take out the rabbit and hold it close to your chest, the small creature bringing comfort with its warmth and softness. You sit down on a bed--plain, uniform, and hard despite the thin mattress--and simply run your fingers through the rabbit's fur for a long moment of time. You make yourself relax. The rabbit is one of the few things in your life that doesn't make you think of death. It is full of life and you are allowed to keep it that way. But it isn't free. You are resolved to fix that and a sigh of relief leaves you as he determine to set it free the next time you leave for a mission. The thought is a pleasant one. At least one of you could be free from this place.

Memory Three "Are you still with us, 81?"

"S-sadly, y-yes."

"No more sadness. We're beyond all that. Free."

"Y-you're the onl-ly one wh-who was fr-fr-freed. Th-the r-r-rest of us..."

"You're freer than I've ever been."

47 reached down towards his ill brother, lying prone in bed, too weak to move, and covered the other man's nose and mouth with his hand.

"Goodbye, brother."

It took little effort to suffocate Subject 81. He was too weak to fight back, and didn't have the will anymore to really try in the first place.

"I'm done now."

He had no more brothers left to kill. 81 was the last one remaining. He was the last "brother" that 47 was determined to set free. He had finished what he'd started so many years back. He didn't even remember why he had to do it anymore, just that he couldn't stop since he'd started. (The serum revealed that to him, gave him back that falsified memory, and he knew now--but back then, during the time the memory took place, he didn't remember the reason why he needed to set them all free, to finish what he'd started. Just that it was like another mission to him, that he had to do it.) He placed the body in a black body-bag and carried it down into the pit of the basement facility. He watched it burn in the incinerator--and he felt nothing but a sense of completion, as if it were just another mission accomplished. And even that was stunted.
