jason. i've missed you so much, jason. you have no idea what i've been through, how much i've wanted to see you -- deacon brought me back. yes. listen to your father, jason. it's going to be a better world. there's no use fighting us, jason. these are my people now. i'm one of them. you don't understand. i've killed, i've hunted, and i've enjoyed it. i wish you could see the world as i do. deacon opened my eyes. there's no turning back from that. you will. time is on our side. sooner or later, the thirst always wins. your mother died the night you were born. rushes at karen in a near-blur. the snarling hellion is upon karen in an eye-blink, slamming her down against the temple floor, pinning her. did you think i'd forgotten you, you little whore?
