Steve watched the news broadcast with sorrowful eyes as his new lover buried her face into his chest. All she could see was the giant form of Erica laying waste to everyone in sight and smiling as she did so. It wasn't like before where she was mostly mindless. This was different. She was fully aware and that made her more dangerous than ever.
"Why? Why can't she just go away?" The blonde cried.
"I don't know, Beth. I don't know." Steve whispered.
The giant woman was causing all kinds of destruction as she stomped her way through the prison walls and onto the awaiting cop cars outside. The police had opened fire upon her, and she was shrugging off their bullets as if they were nothing but bug bites.
One of cop cars was even hoisted up into the air with cops still in it and hurled just over the horizon. There was no way those brave men would survive the impact and even if they somehow did then no question they would be praying for death.
The nightmare had returned... and it was all his fault.
"This is all my fault." Steve sighed.
Beth quickly pulled her tear-stained face away and shook her head. "No, it isn't."
"But I'm the one who paid off that guard and brought the shrink ray into it." The doctor explained. "If I had known Erica was involved I would've... why couldn't Debbie tell me? We're supposed to have each other's backs, aren't we?"
"You did have her back, but this isn't on you." Beth tried to reassure him.
"The government won't see it that way." Steve frowned. "When they see this, they'll come looking for me with questions about how this is even possible when I have the only working shrink ray technology in existence. It's all over. The project, everything. They'll hang me for this."
The blonde looked terribly frightened now. Not for herself but for the man who'd stolen her heart. For the first time in a long time, she felt a swell of anger directed toward Debbie. Steve had literally sacrificed everything for her and there was a very high chance he may never recover this time. How could she ask something so selfish of him.
Why couldn't she woman up and face the problem herself without involving the man she loved?
"It'll be okay. I still have daddy's money. We can go somewhere else and start over. This doesn't have to be the end. We can still make the project work together. Please, don't give up." Beth pleaded.
"But what about the kids?" Steve asked. "They won't abandon their mother or want to start all over. Their lives are here."
Beth honestly didn't know what to say about that and before she could come up with some kind of retort, something else major was happening on the news station.
"O-M-G!" Beth breathed.
"Why? Why can't she just go away?" The blonde cried.
"I don't know, Beth. I don't know." Steve whispered.
