Dead Drop #1
Subject 140's name has been confirmed as Esther Munroe. Female Caucasian. Age: 26. Conduit magnitude: 2, Potential: 9. Conduit state: Dormant.

In order to activate Conduit abilities subject has been exposed to minor Ray Field radiation. This seems to have only minor effects; but the subject, unlike many others, also seems to be unhurt by the radiation. This shows promise for later experimentations. Subject's hair has been bleached white by the radiation exposure, the reasons for this effect are unknown. Another strange result of subject's exposure is the increase in the amount of specific proteins in her body, one that stood out was sirtuin. The theoretically known effects of such increase in Conduits are yet to be demonstrated by subject 140. However, longevity, a more robust cell structure and even telekinesis has been predicted. Finding out the magnitude of her potential telekinesis has proven difficult but subject 140 has shown more promise than any of the past subjects. Further testing is required.

Concerning other matters, the effects that the Ray Sphere explosion will have on Cole Macgrath have proven troublesome to predict. There is a possibility that, due to the him being subjected to the explosion earlier than he should be, he will not develop the electrokinetic abilities that we need him to. The Ray Sphere explosion has been postponed to next month, as a result of accelerated research required for subject 140. Hopefully, that extra month will provide enough time to allow Cole's dormant Conduit-self to develop enough for him to acquire electrokinesis. We are yet to obtain a source of his DNA, which is needed to determine his current Conduit magnitude. It must be at least 2 for him to gain the required abilities. We will just have to wait and see what the blast has in store for Cole Macgrath. End of recording.

~~New-Marais~~

The new Dead Drop was disturbing. Cole MacGrath didn't fully understand it. No doubt Wolfe would be able to explain it to him, but Wolfe is dead. What Cole did know was that the speaker was Kessler, and that he recorded it before the blast. It felt creepy that Kessler was researching about him before Cole even knew that he existed. But what was more mysterious was the woman he was talking about. Esther Munroe: Subject 140. Kessler said that he needed to have a Conduit magnitude (whatever that was) of 2 to get electricity powers, which he has, and Esther also had a magnitude of 2; meaning that she could be just as strong as Cole, if she's still out there. That's what was disturbing. Cole's never met a Conduit he can't beat (except for the Beast), this 'Esther' could be a threat. He held up the Dead Drop to the sun and inspected it. It looked the same as every other Dead Drop. He'd have to find more to solve this mystery.

"Wassup?" A voice asked from behind him. Cole turned around to see Nix walking towards him. The Conduit teleported closer. With a sigh, Cole smiled at the maniac. Sure, she was useful, but she was far too unpredictable. Far too volatile. She's killed enough people, despite Cole's obvious distaste, and no doubt she's going to kill more. He's always contemplated putting her down, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

"How'd you find me here?" Cole asked, the rooftop was kind of a private place, where he'd go when he needs to clear his head.

"You come here all the time, everyone knows," She sat down on an air conditioning unit, "Wasthat you got?" She pointed at the Dead Drop in his hand.

"Dead Drop," Cole answered, not explaining any further, "What d'you want?"

"You need to see something, Cole," Nix smirked and stood up, "Follow me!" She teleported to the adjoining rooftop.

"I'm not in the mood for games, Nix!" He shouted so she could hear.

"Trust me man!" She replied "You wanna see this."

Trust you? Cole thought No, thank you.

After a short journey full of Cole making good use of his Ice Launch and Lightning Tether and Nix mocking him about his inability to get around as swiftly as she does, they arrived on top of a roof overlooking an old building with two towering spires.

"What am I meant to be seeing?" Cole asked.

"Patience, Man!" Nix slapped him on the back, "Just wait and see, it's hilarious."

Just then four swamp monsters ran towards the building. They stopped at the huge doors and waited. A Hive Lord tunneled under the ground and appeared behind them. Cole raised his hand and aimed at the group of Corrupted. The Hive Lord might prove to be a problem, he could easily take it down with an Ionic Storm, but he wanted to save that for a rainy day. Alone he could take it down with ease, but the other swamp monsters would be annoying, not to mention that the Hive Lord himself could summon Spikers.

Here goes nothing, Cole was about to throw a cluster grenade into the group, when Nix grabbed his arm.

"Watch." She whispered. The door that they were waiting by blew open and slammed on its hinges, as if hit by a strong wind. An booming voice echoed from the darkness revealed.

ENTER IF YOU DARE, WASTRELS!

The monsters ran into the building with a crazy battle-cry. Their battle-cries turned into blood-curdling screams. Something was happening to them in there. Their pain was deafening. And then there was silence.

"What the f..."

***Alice***

They come and they come and they come. They don't stop. I showed weakness, I showed sympathy, and now they think they can destroy me. They are sorely mistaken. If I have to kill them all to prove my point, I will. They are no longer scared of me. They no longer consider me a threat. None of this matters. If they step one foot inside my library, I will kill them, whether they perceive me as a threat or not. Before the Electric Man came, they wouldn't dare come near my library. It would be wise if they reverted back to those old ways. Either that, or they die. This is all his fault... The Demon of Empire City: Kessler. Cole MacGrath. If he enters my library, I will show him no mercy, the same way he did to me.
