Michael

There's only about an hour 'till daylight. Can you even make it back to the mansion before sunrise.

Michael

What am I supposed to do, wait here and wait for you? No! Kraven may still have his men with him. You're not going alone!

Michael

Look, I understand what you did. I'm grateful. You saved my life. I wasn't ready to die. I don't know. Everything's changed. I probably need just a minute to make it all fit in my head. It's a lot to process all at once.

Michael

Look, go. I'll be here. You just make sure you come back.

Michael

Three hundred years. What makes you think we're gonna find him now?

Michael

How does a Vampire have Lycan bodyguards?

Michael
(To Tanis)

Why would Lucian wanna protect you?

Michael
(To Tanis)

Marcus was after this. Why? (Throws Tanis Sonja's Pendent)

Michael
(To Tanis)

Why is Marcus looking for him now... after all this time?

Michael

How do we know Tanis isn't setting us up?

Michael

Kraven may still have his men with him. You're not going alone.

Selene

He's not as strong as you might think.

Michael

What?

Selene

Michael, you're unique. There has never been a Hybrid before. Not to be ambivalent about it, but the truth is your powers could be limitless. You depend on blood.

Selene
[Selene retrieves a plastic bag of cloned human blood from a medical cabinet, Michael is visibly unsettled]

You need to feed. Without it, you'll be growing weaker by the second. Use the time for that.

Michael

What if I don't? What if I can't?

Selene

Normal food could be lethal. If you don't anticipate your cravings, you will attack humans... and believe me, you don't want that on your conscience. There really is no going back, Michael. I'm sorry.

Selene
[Entering the safehouse, Selene and Michael are greeted by the sight of a dead Werewolf]

This thing's been dead for weeks.

Michael

I thought Lycans went back to their human form when they die.

Selene

They do. This one's been given a serum to stop regression so it can be studied.

Michael

How can you tell? [Selene shows a tag attached to the apparatus to Michael] Ah. Not quite your department, I guess.

Selene

I just killed them. I didn't pay much attention to their anatomy.

Michael

How long can we stay here?

Selene

Not long. These safe houses are all linked together on one mainframe with motion sensors revealing which ones are active. Someone could have picked us up already. [Selene moves over to a weapons cabinet to stock up on weapons, ammo and other supplies. Michael looks at the computer read-out which shows the time left until sunrise]

Michael

There's only about an hour 'till daylight. Can you even make it back to the mansion before sunrise?

Selene

Just.

Michael

Okay, let's get what we need and go.

Selene

No, I'm going alone.

Selene

If I can plead my case, there's a chance you'll be granted sanctuary. Right now, you'll be killed on sight. I'm not prepared to risk it.

Michael

What am I supposed to do? Just sit here and wait for you? No! Kraven may still have his men with him. You're not going alone!

Selene

You're not as strong as you might think.

Michael

What?

Selene

Michael, you're unique. There's never been a Hybrid before. However ambivalent you might feel about it, the truth is your powers could be limitless but you depend on blood. You need to feed. Without it, you'll be growing weaker by the second. [hands over a bag of cloned blood to Michael] Use the time for that.

Michael
[unsettled]

Jesus Christ! What if I don't? What if I can't...?

Selene

Normal food could be lethal. If you don't anticipate your cravings, you will attack humans. And believe me, you don't want that on your conscience. There really is no going back, Michael. I'm sorry.

Michael

Look, I understand what you did. I'm grateful, you saved my life. I wasn't ready to die. I don't know, everything's changed. I probably need just a minute to make it all fit in my head. It's a lot to process all at once. Look, go. I'll be here. You just make sure you come back.
[Selene leaves the bunker, closing the door behind her]

Selene
[to Tanis]

Your exile seems a bit more comfortable than I remember.

Michael

How does a Vampire like you have Lycan bodyguards?

Tanis

A gift, from a very persuasive client.

Selene
[Selene notices a familiar blue light shining through the rips of a tapestry]

Lucian.

Michael
[to Tanis]

Why would Lucian want to protect you?

Selene

Because he was trading with them. [holds up a UV round] UV rounds. [to Tanis] How long have you been in the business of killing your own kind?

Tanis

I've done what is necessary to survive. My decision was made easy the day your precious Viktor betrayed me.

Selene

Betrayal was something he did very well. Viktor's dead, I killed him.

Tanis

You? Killed Viktor? No, I think not. Oh, unless you've learned the truth. So your eyes are finally open. Isn't it interesting how the truth is even harder to absorb than light? You know, I tried to stop him, of course. A travesty, committing such a horrible crime, and then turning you. That was too much to take. My protests are why he put me here.

Selene
[Selene and Michael have been brought before Lorenz Macaro. He looks over the pendant] [to Lorenz]

So you're familiar with this, then?

Lorenz

Intimately.

Selene
[As Marcaro's hand moves over Sonja's Pendant, Selene sees his ring. Selene recognises its emblem from the woodcut of Alexander Corvinus' army of mortals that Tanis showed them] [realizing]

You're Alexander Corvinus.

[having been revealed, Alexander Corvinus walks towards Michael]

There was a time that I was known by that name. [to Michael] But by any name, I am still your forefather. [gives Michael a smile of paternal pride, as he hands the pendent back to him]

Selene

How have you stayed hidden all these years?

For centuries, I've stood back and watched the havoc my sons have wrought upon each other, and upon humanity. Not the legacy I prayed for, the morning I watched them enter this world. And a tiresome duty; keeping the war contained, cleaning up the mess. Hiding my family's unfortunate history.

Michael
[to Alexander]

Couldn't you have stopped it?

Selene

Yes.

Could you kill your own sons?

Selene

You know what Marcus will do! If he finds me, he finds William's prison! You have to help us stop him.

You are asking me to help you kill my son? You? A Death Dealer? How many innocents have you slain in your six-century quest to avenge your family? Spare me your self-righteous declarations. You are no different from Marcus and even less noble than William. At least he cannot control his savagery.

Selene

Anything I've done can be laid at your feet. Hundreds of thousands have died because of your inability to accept that your sons are monsters, that they created monsters! You could have stopped all of this.

Do not come groveling to me because you are weaker than your adversary-

Selene

You know the devastation William caused before he was captured. He cannot be set free.
