Agent 069: “I was just a little girl doesn’t that mean anything to you?”

Narration: “Because while you thought I didn’t know that you were watching me I was watching you and I followed you one night back to the orphanage.

You never knew your real parents because they left you at the hospital when you were born.”

Panel Four: Young 069 is hanging upside down with tape over her mouth and is tied up. There’s a shark tank below her and a timmer with fifty-nine seconds left on a timmer.
Narration: “That little girl that broke into my house…”
Panel Five: Young 069 is sitting on her bed with a book that says “Fairy Tales” on the cover.
Agent 069 Narration: “That little girl was still a little girl that just wanted a Mother to read her a story before bedtime.”
Panel Six: (Present day) Agent 069 is crying
Agent 069: “I just wanted someone to love me. I know what I did was wrong but that wasn’t a reason to tortue me.”
Mother: “I didn’t torture you. I taught you how to be a force of nature unlike any other. That's why you were hired because you are one of the best...besides myself of course.”

PAGE SIX
Panel One: Agent 069 is crying harder now.
Agent 069: “That’s all I ever wanted were parents who loved me. I didn’t want to become...this! And now I have a chance to give my baby what I’ve always wanted.”
Panel Two: Mother has a stern expression on her face as she looks at 069.
Mother: “I would advise against that, you’ve made a lot of enemies in your life Natasha. I’ve told you that having attachments to others is dangerous, those are strings. And when you have strings like that there are people out there who will try to cut them in order to get to you.”
Panel Three: 069 has her hand on her belly and she still has tears in her eyes but she looks angry at Mother.
069: “Then I quit! But my baby will know their dad!”
Mother: “That can’t happen, it will go against your contract and it will complicate things with the subjects. This research goes way beyond your desires.”
Panel Four: 069 is yelling and Mother is standing very close to her now.
069: “Fuck the contract! I will be a good mom! Fuck you! Fuck The Doctor and I don’t care about this research! I’m going to do what I have to do now, leave me alone you unloving bitch!”
Panel Five: Mother is kissing 069 on the forehead and holding her hand and 069 looks shocked with wide eyes.
Panel Six: Mother has her hand on 069 belly and 069 still looks shocked, her hand is balled.
Mother: “I hope you know what you’re doing Natasha, I have to go now.”

PAGE SEVEN
Panel One: Mother is in a room with The Doctor, he’s watching a monitor. There are other scientists around him and other monitors.
The Doctor: “Well that was interesting to watch, will she be a problem?”
Mother: “I’m not sure. But will you be a problem for her?”
The Doctor: “That depends.”
Mother: “On what? What exactly will you do to my daughter if she doesn’t stay quiet?”

Panel Two: The Doctor has turned around in his chair and is looking at Mother.
The Doctor: “Well that’s still up for debate but just so you know she’s now under constant watched because the baby she’s carrying is now part of the experiment.”
Mother: “How so?”
Panel Three: The Doctor has an ultrasound picture in his hand.
The Doctor: “Your...daughter...interacted with the test subject as you well know. But her baby is growing at a faster and larger rate than normal. And I need to know why. Unlike the test subject's wife who's taken a new experimental batch of pills that’s caused her multiples. Your daughter hasn’t and yet her baby is growing at the same rate as the other test subject and I need to know why.”
Panel Four: The Doctor has his hand extended out for Mother to take the ultrasound picture.
The Doctor: “The issue is that I can’t allow her to interfere and raise questions with the test subjects we’re so close to finalizing the formula. Besides do you really loveˆAgent 069?”
Panel Five: (Back in the holding room where Agent 069) is sitting, Agent 069 is looking at her closed fist.

Mother Speech Bubble: “Let’s get one thing clear Doctor I put her through so much…”
Panel Six: 069 opens her hand and reveals a key.
Mother Speech Bubble: “because I’ve always loved her as my own daughter.”
