Saw you walk past my doorway. Immediately froze and locked eyes. Frenzied, like a new dream, out of nowhere, you invaded my life. We would never worry, just didn’t care. You’d laugh and smile, running fingers through your dark hair. Stolen kisses, driving beneath the stars. Those days are gone. All we’ve got now are bittersweet scars. Try as we may, time won’t unwind. Never going back to those moments of truth. All we can do is look forward. Here’s to the future a new friendship, me and you. Back then before any lies, you’d simply whisper, that you’d always be mine. Hands held, motor running, under the stars. Those days are gone. All we’ve got now are bittersweet scars. Life’s torn us apart, we knew it couldn’t last. Let’s just remember, those warm lost years, toasting to our past.

about

What doesn’t kill us... makes us stronger.

You mastered your UPGRADE. Thwarted the shadow organization’s attempt to silence you. Defeated the monstrosities they sent against you. You thought the nightmare was over. You were wrong.

You are the nightmare.

Even as a new threat arrives from the deepest recesses of space to lay waste to your homeworld, the SCARS you carry destabilize, mutating your upgrade beyond all control, pulling apart the life you knew.

But not all is lost. A small team of companions gathers, determined to help you face down the darkness – both within and without.

Can you consume the darkness before it consumes you?

Only time will tell.

about
