"It's okay" 

The words were slurred, and the former Agent wasn't sure she had actually managed to get them out, everything was numb, and she found it was almost like being trapped in her own mind, but Caits was alright with that. It meant she had succeeded in breaking the case. It meant Gerswhin was free. 

"if I have to die, I'd rather die free then one of their pawns..."

At least she would die doing what was right. 

"it's okay, Gerswhin"

It meant...it meant, if there was any after life, she could tell Dioxide they had managed to get Cody and Gerswhin out. Or give them the chance to do it for themselves. 

"You're a good person, Gerswhin, no matter what they make you"

She let her eyes closee, imagining, for one brief moment, all the 'subjects' that had come before, and her hand in them. 

"I deserve to die. I brought so many here..."

the choas Cody was causing spurred him on. cody didn't think, right then, that nothing short of a head or heart shot would kill him. As long as his heart was beating, he was sure he would heal. He had before. And he would do it again. 

After everything, it was easy to find his way to the labs. And even easier to destroy them. And then it was onwards, towards the one last thing that could bring the operations back together. the sounds of the reeniforments, so far away, yet so close, did not worry Cody. 

They couldn't stop him. And they wouldn't be able to stop Gerswhin, either. 

Big Boss was his target.
