The KRAKEN
Bird's eye view of a massive land area, looks very dry, but there is an underground facility buried deep in this government-restricted area. A small black drone flies over.

Welcome to sector 9. Every nation has a sector 9 where secret experiments and unspeakable stuff are birthed. birthplace of conspiracy theories, hidden alien tech, and stuff, like the Men In Black movie 🎬. Ever heard of Area 51? Well, that's what a country where Western culture flourishes calls theirs.
All paranormal activities are monitored here far away from other humans...
And David works here, too.
David
[hunched over a holographic projection of alien DNA]
its signatures are nothing like I have ever seen.
What exactly is this thing...
If I don't get answers, I'll...
Lavender
[leaning in] You're always so focused. Don't you ever get tired of staring at code?
David
[distracted] not when I feel close to a breakthrough.
Lavender
😊 😏 And what's this breakthrough worth to you?
Lavender
Brought you coffee again, Mr. Midnight Scientist.
David
Ugh… Lavender. Thanks. Didn’t know stalkers came with espresso machines. 🙂😏
Lavender
Uhh, that's miss stalker for you. One of these days you’ll thank me for keeping you alive.😏
He barely notices her. She’s liked him for months. But David? All he sees are molecules, monsters, conspiracy theories, and maybe... madness.
[In the Lower Lab Chambers] -
9:14 PM
David works on a sample, unaware of his exposure to fluids leaking from tHe equipment.
he has been exposed to it day after day and...
Exposure to unknown energies can have... unpredictable effects.
David
[Veins on his hands, subtly glowing with an eerie blue light]
what is this? oh, God!.
Lavender
[steps in]
heyy, you ok?
David
[hid his hand] I'm fine. I will be.
Lavender
Hey, David, you need a break. You've been working non-stop.
and you look ill. gets some rest, ok?
David
[nervously] Yeah, I'm fine.
Lavender
you can't even hide it.
it's showing all over you.
David
What does it look like? [even more nervous]
Lavender
Like you need some rest and sleep. see you in the morning. [leaves]
David
[whispers] For a second , I thought she saw the glowing veins. whew. [tries to think but falls asleep]
[Whispers echoing through metal walls]
KRAKEN
[unknown language and deep roar voice]: Zzzthakaraghsztuorieeee… Daaavid…
KRAKEN
[unknown language and deep roar voice]: Zzzthakaraghsztuorieeee… Daaaviddddd
David
[wakes up, looks around, heart pounding] That’s the third night in a row. Who’s talking to me? Who the hell knows my name?
Kraken. 50,000 feet below the surface. Part dragon. Part cosmic abomination. It speaks in strange languages and communicates through nightmares.
David
[voice keeps getting louder in his head.
Screams in anguish]
David
[David to himself]: Something’s not right. My skin heals like Wolverine. They better not find out.
heard this voice that sounds like it's 1000 years old, and I'm starting to see things too.
They better not find out, or I'll be another lab rat.
Lavender
heyyy, [waves to David and approaches him]
Lavender
you look like you didn't have a shuteye last night.
David
yeah, hearing things and couldn't sleep.
Lavender
You need therapy. or tacos. preferably, both.
David
you are welcome to be my therapist.
Lavender
Such an honor.
But I'll get you something to eat first. 😊
don't thank me.😊
Lavender
[Goes into the boardroom where 2 men in suits are sitting]
He is showing signs.
Tijani [Head of Lab Operations]
You do know it's only the Kraken’s heart that could give such kinda power. And he hasn't come in contact with it yet.
Lavender
Yes, sir, but believe me, I could clearly see it, and i thought so before, but after seeing the signs, I couldn't doubt it.
Mark [council member]
Report by tomorrow morning if you have found out anything extra.
Later that day...
7 PM
IN THE LAB
Lavender
You called, saying you need some help.
David
Yes. I need to know that I trust you, cos what I'm about to tell you, i haven't told anyone yet.
Lavender
So what should I do?
David
I need access to that machine to run some tests.
On my self, of course. I have been feeling weird, and I need to see what the problem is.
After the tests. They found a genetic signature reading that was so uncommon like any other that had mixed with David's DNA.
Author: Jade
David was in shock 😲
How did it happen?
how did He get it.
And well... Lavender had to layer drug him to deep sleep and extract his blood for further experiments.
The Council members had found out about his abilities and wanted to lock him up for further experiments and stuff.
But David noticed the moves and fled the place. he was now on the run. 🏃♂️
...actually Lavender helped him escape, and She took his DNA and was developing a mini David in her secret lab at her house. she tweaked the gender, the hairstyle, and encoded a specific genetic sequence to it.
Helping her modify and create a new being.
