Underworld: Awakening Page #4

all our years of research...

Rather than tell me how to do my job,

why not take a look at your

own professional conduct?

And how your continual need

to endow this creature

with human traits has led to the

laxness of its security protocols.

It's not a human being, Lida!

It's not your child.

It's not to be coddled.

It's a blight of nature.

Stop worrying.

It'll come back to us.

[DAVID GRUNTS]

Get Olivia at once.

THOMAS [IN RUSSIAN]:

Again you break my rules. Why?

DAVID [IN RUSSIAN]:

She was attacked.

She is not healing.

And for this you compromise our safety?

SELENE [IN RUSSIAN]:

You have

no reason to fear us.

enough to take you at your word?

No reason

to fear a Death Dealer

who fell in love with a Lycan,

who murdered two of our elders,

and who, at every turn, has betrayed

her own kind.

Do you know who this is?

But it was we who betrayed her, Father.

Let her through.

She's not healing.

[GRUNTS]

She was attacked by a lower Lycan.

Two hours ago.

OLIVIA:

Her cell repair is

active but weakened.

She has no

origin bite marks

Or scars.

I've never seen a child like this before.

When did you last feed?

Feed?

Give her blood.

OLIVIA:

Child,

you must.

Slowly.

Slowly.

There.

There, now.

She's healing.

And quickly.

DAVID:
Good.

Take her to my room.

She needs to rest.

No.

Look at the eyes.

OLIVIA:

I never believed it.

They do exist.

This is not one of us.

No, it's something more, Father.

What do you know of her?

at a place called Antigen.

One of the other prisoners freed me.

I believed it was Michael Corvin,

the only hybrid

I knew existed at that time.

Yes, yes, your Lycan lover, long dead.

What is this, then?

None of your concern.

As soon as she regains

her strength, I will leave with her.

DAVID:

I used to hear stories

of the Death Dealers.

That they were a thing of the past,

never to return.

I'm glad they were wrong.

You knew who I am...

and yet you still brought me here.

Thank you.

You're a fighter.

We could use more like you to teach us.

I'm not sure

your father would agree.

There was a time when he would have.

That's why he dislikes you so much.

I think it reminds him of the days

when he defended us with fire and steel

rather than hollow words.

He knows how much we need you.

I'm not a leader.

But you fight for what you believe in.

You always have.

I don't know

what I believe in anymore.

I don't recognize this world.

But you haven't changed.

I saw it in your eyes

when you looked at the child.

You will protect her.

It's in your blood.

It's who you are.

When you leave, take me with you.

[]

You distrust me.

Of course you do.
