The Aroer demons; what a plague on mankind.  Blown to earth, when a few ill advised scientists launched a probe to see if the Sun was alive.  When it crashed into the Sun, the impact blew them on a solar breeze, into this world.  They ravaged the earth; city to city, country to country.  Many fought back against their attacks.  That was the reason for the towers; to guard against the locust that had descended upon their world. 

Back at the tower, Mia screams "their coming".  Lasers from their eyes are punishing the shields.  The tower is shaking violently.  He turned to a book so old, its logic had left this world a long time ago, he tore out a page and handed it to her.  Capt. Rogers said "send this message out to the world".  He turned away and walked towards the lift.  Just then he remembered something his Science Officer C. C. Han told him before he died, "there is a chance to defeat them, but it may cost you your life".  He turned and went over to the auxiliary tool cabinet.  Inside he found what he was looking for.  He pulled out 2 small drums of "INDUSTRO WELD".  One drum contains liquid steel/epoxy resin, and the other contains hardener. When mixed together in equal portions, a chemical reaction occurs that turns the mixture into a compound that binds objects together.  Just maybe, as Officer Han had suggested, the Aroer demons will bind up, and seize if they come into contact with the mix.  Its a long shot he thought, but it's the only hope left.  He quickly read the instructions.  I've got about 30 minutes to pull this off he thought, and he began to pour both ingredients into a third canister.  When the combining was done, he began to cover himself from head to toe in the mixture, as Mia looked on in shock and disbelief.  Hurry he thought, the clock is ticking. 

Capt. Rogers runs to the lift, the doors open automatically, and he steps inside.  He presses the down button, the doors close and the lift zooms towards the ground floor entrance.  The doors open and he steps out into the bright sunlight.  Here they come, the drone of the hoard deafening, the demons talons begin to rip the flesh from his body.  He screamed again and again.  As the demons made contact with the substance the Capt. was covered in, they were instantly propelled backwards.  Seizing in flight, they exploded on contact with the rest of the hoard, destroying their own.  As the black rain of their metallic pieces fell from the sky, he knew it was over.  He staggers back to the tower and into the lift, rising back to the control deck.  As the lift door opens, he looks around and sees pieces of the Aroer demons scattered on the floor around "MIA" !  Her rifle is still in her cold, bloody hands.  He picks up her lifeless body and kisses her and then turns his head to see one last flickering screen.  On it he read the message he had asked her to send out:

          JAMES:14...Wereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.  For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

This is for all the ones who feel the pain of bringing us into this world, let me say this ones FOR YOU! She must have said no a million times before she ever said yes. There would be months ahead of pain and sickness. Her once svelte body now ballooning out of shape. Then came the cravings! Where is he, she thought, "I need it so BAD". As she dropped to her knees from the pain crawling around inside her, she screams! He walks in with the doctor, his face as pale as ash. Doc moves slowly toward her, his face as pale as white stone. His words seem to come from a place not in reality. "Push, Push" he screamed as the pain grew! Then, finally it happens; first the head then the rest, the screams grow louder almost to a level of thunder. Doc turns quickly and yells "GIVE ME THE BAG!" He's wild now, plunging needles into all parts of her body, his eyes watery from the sweat rolling down his pale white face. As my head falls into my hands, the only voices I can hear are the chantings of a madman and those awful screams!!
