“Looks like our man's got something to hide," Delta yells without breaking his stride as he runs toward the now metal-encased office.

“Where's Malfour?" the fire Elemental asks, looking around the street. "Oh, don't worry. He'll be back in ..." There's only a hint of a scream before Malfour comes crashing out of the sky.

Ugh. That's really going to bother me all night, guys. Thanks a lot," I say into the pit.”

“A position to stop it? I tried! I tried to get my metabands and I couldn't, okay? And that is what got Gary shot. I have to live with that now. Knowing that not only did I not prevent a man's death, I caused it with my stupid decisions. Are you happy now? You were right. I was wrong. I don't know what I'm doing! Okay? Happy?" I yell.”
