Prologue

"And you're sure this is all that can be done to combat it?"

Captain Mitchell turned towards his assistant, Angela Fairweather, who appeared as worried as he did. If what this young man was telling him was true, then it certainly was true and the steps to keep things safe had to be made. But this was Mariner Bay, it had been safe for as long as he could remember. Going off of a hunch, off of a prophecy…?

That was blasphemy.

They had been prepared for this day in many ways but with this, to have this power? And to have it created, for it to finally have worked.

"I'm sure," Billy Cranston replied. "With everything I've been through over the past couple of years, not to mention my studies, technological advance, research…" He shook his head. "There's nothing else that can be done. They're going to be released and it's going to be soon."

Captain Mitchell reached out and placed his hand on Billy's shoulder. "Thank you," he said. "If it wasn't for all of your hard work these past couple of weeks, I'm not sure this would've been possible. Mariner Bay has you to thank."

Billy shook his head. "Don't thank me. With these guys…" He took a deep breath. "There's a lot I'd do to see them put back where they come from once their inevitable release comes to fruition." He licked his lips. "And it will."

In the desert, covered figures walked their camels through the sand up to the ruins they had spotted in the distance. They weren't sure if it was a mirage or real, but they needed to find out. Their camels were getting restless and they needed to find a space to stop. As they approached the ruins, the sand began to pull away from their feet until they fell through the Earth and landed hard on the ground below.

Coughing, the travelers got to their feet and took in their surroundings. It looked like a tomb. A tomb for the ancient snake if the statues adorning the walls were any indication. Around their feet were gold coins they greedily took and shoved into their pockets. One of the travelers walked over to a tomb that sat in the middle of the room with more gold coins sitting atop it.

In the flickering light of the torches his companions carried, he studied the cover of the tomb. There was writing on it, in a language he had never seen before. But if there were gold coins outside…

The traveler pushed open the top of the tomb and gasped before screaming in horror, his voice blending in with his companion's as apparitions raced out, letting out ghostly wails, moans, and screeches as they went.

They swirled around the travelers before racing up into the air, disappearing from sight.
