The Plague turned it's head up to the sky. Beautiful to hear their voices again. And... was that data? A warning? He raised his hand and it's energies were scrambled, making it unreadable and useless. Nobody was warning the Triarii of anything, nobody! The Plague gave a smug-snake style smile, not realising he had inadvertently helped the Collective in the long term. It simple moved through the lab, ignoring the silly little magical virus. He was the Plague, did they think they could give a virus a virus? Foolish creatures. He looked to the vents that were flooding in the virus, and called it forth. A sample hung in the air in front of him, and his eyes rapidly twitched, as displayed by the sudden, jerky movements of the glow. This was hilarious, in it's own little way. He snapped his fingers, a vial flowing forwards from across the room and into his hand, and he clasped the sample of the virus into it. The Aetherii's servants would taste this. He yelled aloud for Vahlens convenience "Come here, Good Doctor... cure this virus... You cannot avoid me. You killed my army, slowed my progress... but your kind will pay dearly for that, and you will make an excellent replacement... Don't bother crying for help, or trying to send out another message... warning the oh-so-great Aetherii, no doubt! I destroyed it, all messages will be destroyed, all information sent, any form of energy you use, evaporated and scrambled... You have killed my army... you have added time to a sentence I never deserved, so the only message your people will get from me is thus: Hide your children, here I come. Close your mind become a victim!" The biomass of his former army lay on the floor beneath him, he raised his hands slowly, and from it crawled a plague of small insects, which followed behind him like flies to a corpse. They slowly but surely broke their way through the door in Vahlens lab, a small hole in the center allowing the access of the small insects. They proceeded to open the door and through came the plague himself, staring around the office. He snatched the Deatheater Virus from the slot in the wall. He crossed the room and disconnected the teleporter from the network, placed his hands against the wall, breaking through it too the powercables... and then proceeded to set a voltage through it which fired the bases electronics. The approached the teleporter again, green energy hopping from his hands to activate it, before laughing as part of his army of bugs went through it, following after whereever Vahlen had sent her research notes, intent on death and destruction. He then proceeded to move his hand and obliterated the teleportation device by collapsing a section of the roof on it. He turned his head to the remaining bugs "Fetch me their bodies. Kill all that stands iny our path" He ordered, and the little creatures scurried off. He closed his eyes In front of Vahlen and Marble In front of Vahlen appeared a blast of green light, before a booming voice "It makes you mad, it makes you hate; There's no cure beyond this state. Far too bad and much too late, close your eyes accept your fate" It said, and then the light disappeared again, leaving nothing in front of them... nothing visible at least...
