Genetic Evaluation of the subject has been completed. Professor Membrane has ordered a push to the final stages of activation.
I myself am not convinced. We all understand the dangers of this technology. Hell, it damn near ended the world last time such radical genetic technology was dabbled with [SEE INCIDENT REPORT 25/12/09].
To be honest, this makes Naismith's crap seem elementary.
Membrane won't have any setbacks, mind you. He's obsessive with this field (hell, he's obsessive with all fields, really.) He seems to think that if he delays, M.E.R.F. will kick in the door and take over the project.
We've been green lit for activation over the thirtieth and thirty-first. I can't say I'm too happy about it…

I'm going to side with [SECURITY CHIEF DAMON GREY] on this. Membrane's desire to persist has shown an adverse affect on the health of the employed scientists. Seriously, guys, let's have some time out here – a week off, we'll have a few beers – just…delay for a bit, OK?
RESPONSE TO HANK SCORPIO, head of GLOBEX CORPORATION, supervisor to PROJECT REGENESIS.
Project is to go ahead. No delays can be accepted.

We've worked flat-out for the past twelve hours, and we've still got a ways to go until we're done. I've tried appealing for break to visit Valerie (god only knows what she's up to on her own – I hope she hasn't got that suit out again) but Membrane vetos my request every time.
He can't see it – the guy's so disconnected from reality he might as well be an alien. Hell, this guy has kids himself – they live on the other side of the country and he's been over here eight months flat out. He doesn't even call them.
The project is shaping up – we're starting to see an actual, finished project here. It's kinda freaky, really – I can see it, in the tank, lifeless but…alive. It's really kinda creepy.
I'm pretty sure the thing blinked at me, but maybe that's the exhaustion kicking in. I need caffeine…

Membrane stands over a tank, waiting for it to open. He has a crazed look, his eyes heavy and bagged. Around him, exhausted scientists and security guards watch, waiting.
The tank opens, and steam covers the room. Membrane lets out a laugh, and announces that his project has been completed.
Then the footage cuts out for two seconds.
It returns. There is a splatter of red – blood? – in the corner of the camera. Scientists run in horror as terrible screaming can be heard. Membrane lies on the ground, bleeding profusely from his stomach. Damon pulls his pistol from his holster and empties the clip at an off-screen object.
A brief .5 second cut – Damon steps back in terror – an inhuman roar.
The film cuts out. This time it doesn't come back.
Alarm backlog, 204h 31/10/10…
All personnel, we have a code black in effect, I repeat, code black is in effect. Prof. Membrane and Chief Grey are confirmed dead. All security personnel are to form up at the exit to block C. All non-essential personnel are to be immediately evacuated. I say again, we have a code black in effect…

Outside the cold metal building that is Block C, security has formed up. Heavy weapons have been taken out. Sirens can be heard wailing. The door is off-screen.
There is a ripping noise – some guards visibly recoil. Security Lieutenant Doe steps up and bellows out a fire order.
The footage flickers in and out. Guards fire – a black mass, impossible to discern, seems to be ripping apart security – another inhuman roar – a bloody mass of guards lie on the ground as their friends run in fear.
Then, there is a ten second video cut. The audio is simply a mismatch of screams of terror and pain, roaring and disgusting, wet splatter noises.
The video comes back. Every single guard is dead.
From off-screen, there is a sudden, vibrant flash of red light, and then…nothing.
Facility Nine has been confirmed wiped out. No survivors. Nearby city of Denver wiped out. Requesting permission to upgrade to Code Z.
Attention all personnel. Code Black is no longer in effect. Upgrade to Code Z is now in effect. This is a possible Galactic Extinction Event. All units are to prepare for immediate and heavy-handed counter-measures. Use of nuclear weapons is authorised. This comes down from the President and the U.N. secretary general. I repeat, Code Black is no longer in effect. Upgrade to Code Z is now in effect. This is…Event… … …Pres… … …
