body
213
00:01:50,849 --> 00:01:51,060:
was
214
00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:51,120:
a
215
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:51,959:
prison,
216
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:52,200:
an
217
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:52,560:
evil
218
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:53,189:
thing,
219
00:01:53,189 --> 00:01:53,519:
not

00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:53,819:
be
222
00:01:53,819 --> 00:01:55,109:
desired.
223
00:01:55,109 --> 00:01:55,290:
Yet
224
00:01:55,290 --> 00:01:55,590:
here
225
00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:55,739:
I
226
00:01:55,739 --> 00:01:56,099:
was
227
00:01:56,099 --> 00:01:56,640:
desiring
228
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:56,730:
to
229
00:01:56,730 --> 00:01:57,060:
trade
230
00:01:57,060 --> 00:01:57,359:
one
231
00:01:57,359 --> 00:01:57,719:
prison
232
00:01:57,719 --> 00:01:57,930:
for
233
00:01:57,930 --> 00:01:58,620:
another
234
00:01:58,620 --> 00:01:58,799:
by
235
00:01:58,799 --> 00:01:59,549:
transitioning
236
00:01:59,549 --> 00:01:59,760:
from
237
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:00,269:
female
238
00:02:00,269 --> 00:02:00,420:
to
239
00:02:00,420 --> 00:02:01,469:
male—an
240
00:02:01,469 --> 00:02:01,769:
act
241
00:02:01,769 --> 00:02:02,159:
so
242
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:03,150:
heretical
243
00:02:03,150 --> 00:02:03,299:
that
244
00:02:03,299 --> 00:02:03,390:
if
245
00:02:03,390 --> 00:02:03,480:
the
246
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:03,840:
priest
247
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:03,989:
had
248
00:02:03,989 --> 00:02:04,620:
known,
249
00:02:04,620 --> 00:02:04,769:
he
250
00:02:04,769 --> 00:02:05,280:
probably
251
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:05,400:
would
252
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:05,489:
have
253
00:02:05,489 --> 00:02:05,640:
been
254
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,000:
tempted
255
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:06,090:
to
256
00:02:06,090 --> 00:02:06,480:
drown
257
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:06,750:
me
258
00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:07,109:
right
259
00:02:07,109 --> 00:02:07,319:
then
260
00:02:07,319 --> 00:02:07,439:
and
261
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:08,879:
there.
But
262
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:09,120:
I
263
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:09,689:
knew
264
00:02:09,689 --> 00:02:09,930:
my
265
00:02:09,930 --> 00:02:10,349:
religion
266
00:02:10,349 --> 00:02:10,680:
had
267
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:10,770:
to
268
00:02:10,770 --> 00:02:10,889:
be
269
00:02:10,889 --> 00:02:11,189:
more
270
00:02:11,189 --> 00:02:11,340:
than
271
00:02:11,340 --> 00:02:11,550:
that
272
00:02:11,550 --> 00:02:11,909:
bigoted
273
00:02:11,909 --> 00:02:12,930:
teaching.
274
00:02:12,930 --> 00:02:13,080:
And
275
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:13,919:
besides,
276
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:14,159:
this
277
00:02:14,159 --> 00:02:14,340:
was
278
00:02:14,340 --> 00:02:15,120:
my
279
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,259:
baptism.
280
00:02:16,259 --> 00:02:16,379:
It
281
00:02:16,379 --> 00:02:16,560:
was
282
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:16,650:
an
283
00:02:16,650 --> 00:02:17,129:
important
284
00:02:17,129 --> 00:02:17,340:
rite
285
00:02:17,340 --> 00:02:17,430:
of
286
00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:17,849:
passage
287
00:02:17,849 --> 00:02:18,090:
for
288
00:02:18,090 --> 00:02:19,169:
all 20-year-olds
289
00:02:19,169 --> 00:02:19,259:
of
290
00:02:19,259 --> 00:02:19,349:
the
291
00:02:19,349 --> 00:02:20,310:
faith,
292
00:02:20,310 --> 00:02:20,490:
and
293
00:02:20,490 --> 00:02:20,759:
damn
294
00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:21,180:
it
295
00:02:21,180 --> 00:02:21,330:
I
296
00:02:21,330 --> 00:02:21,539:
was
297
00:02:21,539 --> 00:02:21,719:
going
298
00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:21,810:
to
299
00:02:21,810 --> 00:02:21,930:
be
300
00:02:21,930 --> 00:02:22,349:
brave
301
00:02:22,349 --> 00:02:22,560:
for
302
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:23,580:
this.
303
00:02:23,580 --> 00:02:23,849:
From
304
00:02:23,849 --> 00:02:24,120:
that
305
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:24,479:
moment
306
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:25,289:
forward,
307
00:02:25,289 --> 00:02:25,469:
I
308
00:02:25,469 --> 00:02:25,620:
would
309
00:02:25,620 --> 00:02:26,009:
show
310
00:02:26,009 --> 00:02:26,280:
those
311
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:26,490:
old
312
00:02:26,490 --> 00:02:26,849:
priests
313
00:02:26,849 --> 00:02:26,969:
that
314
00:02:26,969 --> 00:02:27,060:
I
315
00:02:27,060 --> 00:02:27,240:
could
316
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:27,389:
do
317
00:02:27,389 --> 00:02:27,689:
right
318
00:02:27,689 --> 00:02:27,900:
by
319
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:28,620:
God,
320
00:02:28,620 --> 00:02:29,280:
regardless
321
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:29,340:
of
322
00:02:29,340 --> 00:02:29,520:
my
323
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:29,909:
longing
324
00:02:29,909 --> 00:02:30,030:
to
325
00:02:30,030 --> 00:02:30,389:
become
326
00:02:30,389 --> 00:02:30,539:
my
327
00:02:30,539 --> 00:02:30,780:
true
328
00:02:30,780 --> 00:02:31,830:
self.
329
00:02:31,830 --> 00:02:32,009:
I
330
00:02:32,009 --> 00:02:32,310:
would
331
00:02:32,310 --> 00:02:32,969:
not,
332
00:02:32,969 --> 00:02:33,300:
could
333
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:33,990:
not,
334
00:02:33,990 --> 00:02:34,379:
back
335
00:02:34,379 --> 00:02:34,710:
down
336
00:02:34,710 --> 00:02:38,159:
now.
Unfortunately,
337
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:38,490:
that
338
00:02:38,490 --> 00:02:38,639:
was
339
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:38,819:
when
340
00:02:38,819 --> 00:02:38,879:
the
341
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:39,180:
whole
342
00:02:39,180 --> 00:02:39,810:
world
343
00:02:39,810 --> 00:02:40,110:
came
344
00:02:40,110 --> 00:02:40,289:
to
345
00:02:40,289 --> 00:02:40,409:
an
346
00:02:40,409 --> 00:02:42,090:
end.
I
347
00:02:42,090 --> 00:02:42,539:
recall
348
00:02:42,539 --> 00:02:42,629:
a
349
00:02:42,629 --> 00:02:43,020:
sudden
350
00:02:43,020 --> 00:02:43,919:
realization
351
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:44,069:
that
352
00:02:44,069 --> 00:02:44,159:
I
353
00:02:44,159 --> 00:02:44,310:
had
354
00:02:44,310 --> 00:02:44,490:
been
355
00:02:44,490 --> 00:02:44,580:
in
356
00:02:44,580 --> 00:02:44,669:
the
357
00:02:44,669 --> 00:02:45,030:
water
358
00:02:45,030 --> 00:02:45,389:
far
359
00:02:45,389 --> 00:02:45,599:
too
360
00:02:45,599 --> 00:02:46,889:
long.
361
00:02:46,889 --> 00:02:47,460:
Baptism
362
00:02:47,460 --> 00:02:47,580:
was
363
00:02:47,580 --> 00:02:47,969:
supposed
364
00:02:47,969 --> 00:02:48,060:
to
365
00:02:48,060 --> 00:02:48,300:
take
366
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:48,659:
nothing
367
00:02:48,659 --> 00:02:48,810:
but
368
00:02:48,810 --> 00:02:48,840:
a
369
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,199:
quick
370
00:02:49,199 --> 00:02:49,530:
dunk
371
00:02:49,530 --> 00:02:49,650:
to
372
00:02:49,650 --> 00:02:49,919:
rinse
373
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,099:
off
374
00:02:50,099 --> 00:02:50,189:
the
375
00:02:50,189 --> 00:02:50,669:
sin,
376
00:02:50,669 --> 00:02:50,909:
so
377
00:02:50,909 --> 00:02:51,000:
to
378
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,050:
speak,
379
00:02:52,050 --> 00:02:52,229:
but
380
00:02:52,229 --> 00:02:52,409:
I
381
00:02:52,409 --> 00:02:52,530:
had
382
00:02:52,530 --> 00:02:52,680:
been
383
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:52,919:
under
384
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:53,129:
for
385
00:02:53,129 --> 00:02:53,219:
at
386
00:02:53,219 --> 00:02:53,580:
least
387
00:02:53,580 --> 00:02:53,639:
a
388
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:53,849:
few
389
00:02:53,849 --> 00:02:55,169:
seconds.
390
00:02:55,169 --> 00:02:55,289:
The
391
00:02:55,289 --> 00:02:55,710:
priest’s
392
00:02:55,710 --> 00:02:56,280:
mumbling
393
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:56,819:
ceased
394
00:02:56,819 --> 00:02:57,960:
altogether,
395
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:58,110:
and
396
00:02:58,110 --> 00:02:58,500:
something
397
00:02:58,500 --> 00:02:58,949:
spread
398
00:02:58,949 --> 00:02:59,099:
through
399
00:02:59,099 --> 00:02:59,189:
the
400
00:02:59,189 --> 00:02:59,580:
water
401
00:02:59,580 --> 00:02:59,969:
around
402
00:02:59,969 --> 00:03:00,840:
me:
403
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:01,409:
ripples
404
00:03:01,409 --> 00:03:01,530:
in
405
00:03:01,530 --> 00:03:02,069:
space
406
00:03:02,069 --> 00:03:02,219:
and
407
00:03:02,219 --> 00:03:03,120:
time,
408
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:03,960:
cascading
409
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:04,229:
into
410
00:03:04,229 --> 00:03:04,379:
my
411
00:03:04,379 --> 00:03:04,860:
body
412
00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:05,039:
as
413
00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:05,099:
the
414
00:03:05,099 --> 00:03:05,849:
shockwaves
415
00:03:05,849 --> 00:03:06,030:
from
416
00:03:06,030 --> 00:03:06,150:
the
417
00:03:06,150 --> 00:03:06,689:
impact
418
00:03:06,689 --> 00:03:07,020:
made
419
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:07,199:
on
420
00:03:07,199 --> 00:03:07,710:
reality
421
00:03:07,710 --> 00:03:08,009:
that
422
00:03:08,009 --> 00:03:08,550:
day
423
00:03:08,550 --> 00:03:09,060:
washed
424
00:03:09,060 --> 00:03:09,300:
over
425
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:10,650:
creation.
426
00:03:10,650 --> 00:03:10,889:
Then
427
00:03:10,889 --> 00:03:10,979:
the
428
00:03:10,979 --> 00:03:11,400:
ripples
429
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,120:
vanished,
430
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:12,300:
and
431
00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:12,539:
with
432
00:03:12,539 --> 00:03:12,870:
them
433
00:03:12,870 --> 00:03:13,110:
went
434
00:03:13,110 --> 00:03:13,229:
the
435
00:03:13,229 --> 00:03:13,800:
priest’s
436
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,449:
arms.
I
437
00:03:15,449 --> 00:03:15,719:
didn’t
438
00:03:15,719 --> 00:03:16,139:
sink
439
00:03:16,139 --> 00:03:16,289:
when
440
00:03:16,289 --> 00:03:16,379:
he
441
00:03:16,379 --> 00:03:16,770:
dropped
442
00:03:16,770 --> 00:03:17,280:
me,
443
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:17,550:
because
444
00:03:17,550 --> 00:03:17,639:
I
445
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:18,060:
wasn’t
446
00:03:18,060 --> 00:03:18,270:
in
447
00:03:18,270 --> 00:03:18,360:
the
448
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:18,930:
baptismal
449
00:03:18,930 --> 00:03:19,289:
pool
450
00:03:19,289 --> 00:03:20,370:
anymore.
451
00:03:20,370 --> 00:03:20,969:
Instead,
452
00:03:20,969 --> 00:03:21,060:
I
453
00:03:21,060 --> 00:03:21,270:
was
454
00:03:21,270 --> 00:03:21,810:
drifting
455
00:03:21,810 --> 00:03:22,080:
like
456
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:22,110:
a
457
00:03:22,110 --> 00:03:22,710:
comet
458
00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:22,949:
through
459
00:03:22,949 --> 00:03:23,009:
a
460
00:03:23,009 --> 00:03:23,639:
perfectly
461
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,180:
dark,
462
00:03:24,180 --> 00:03:24,539:
empty
463
00:03:24,539 --> 00:03:26,039:
void.
464
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:26,129:
A
465
00:03:26,129 --> 00:03:26,729:
strange
466
00:03:26,729 --> 00:03:27,120:
calm
467
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:27,479:
washed
468
00:03:27,479 --> 00:03:27,719:
over
469
00:03:27,719 --> 00:03:28,319:
me,
470
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:28,469:
as
471
00:03:28,469 --> 00:03:28,590:
if
472
00:03:28,590 --> 00:03:28,740:
my
473
00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:29,099:
sudden
474
00:03:29,099 --> 00:03:29,849:
displacement
475
00:03:29,849 --> 00:03:30,060:
was
476
00:03:30,060 --> 00:03:30,270:
no
477
00:03:30,270 --> 00:03:30,509:
more
478
00:03:30,509 --> 00:03:31,409:
noteworthy
479
00:03:31,409 --> 00:03:31,560:
than
480
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,009:
falling
481
00:03:32,009 --> 00:03:32,430:
asleep
482
00:03:32,430 --> 00:03:32,520:
at
483
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:33,780:
night.
484
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:33,990:
With
485
00:03:33,990 --> 00:03:34,199:
that
486
00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:35,009:
comfortable,
487
00:03:35,009 --> 00:03:35,430:
almost
488
00:03:35,430 --> 00:03:36,060:
hypnotic
489
00:03:36,060 --> 00:03:36,509:
bliss
490
00:03:36,509 --> 00:03:36,870:
keeping
491
00:03:36,870 --> 00:03:37,020:
me
492
00:03:37,020 --> 00:03:37,800:
calm,
493
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:37,979:
my
494
00:03:37,979 --> 00:03:39,090:
transformation
495
00:03:39,090 --> 00:03:41,159:
began.
It
496
00:03:41,159 --> 00:03:41,610:
started
497
00:03:41,610 --> 00:03:41,699:
at
498
00:03:41,699 --> 00:03:41,849:
my
499
00:03:41,849 --> 00:03:42,840:
feet.
500
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:42,960:
The
501
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:43,710:
sensation
502
00:03:43,710 --> 00:03:43,830:
of
503
00:03:43,830 --> 00:03:44,310:
ghostly
504
00:03:44,310 --> 00:03:44,789:
hands
505
00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:45,240:
rested
506
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:45,479:
upon
507
00:03:45,479 --> 00:03:45,599:
my
508
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:46,560:
toes,
509
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:46,710:
but
510
00:03:46,710 --> 00:03:46,800:
I
511
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:47,069:
didn’t
512
00:03:47,069 --> 00:03:47,400:
feel
513
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:47,430:
a
514
00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:47,789:
need
515
00:03:47,789 --> 00:03:47,909:
to
516
00:03:47,909 --> 00:03:48,240:
draw
517
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:48,569:
back
518
00:03:48,569 --> 00:03:48,780:
from
519
00:03:48,780 --> 00:03:48,960:
their
520
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:49,620:
unexpected
521
00:03:49,620 --> 00:03:50,939:
touch.
522
00:03:50,939 --> 00:03:51,120:
My
523
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:51,509:
feet
524
00:03:51,509 --> 00:03:52,229:
tingled
525
00:03:52,229 --> 00:03:52,409:
as
526
00:03:52,409 --> 00:03:52,650:
those
527
00:03:52,650 --> 00:03:53,159:
invisible
528
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:53,610:
hands
529
00:03:53,610 --> 00:03:54,090:
teased
530
00:03:54,090 --> 00:03:54,240:
my
531
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:55,020:
nails,
532
00:03:55,020 --> 00:03:55,349:
turning
533
00:03:55,349 --> 00:03:55,530:
them
534
00:03:55,530 --> 00:03:56,280:
black,
535
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:56,819:
thick,
536
00:03:56,819 --> 00:03:57,000:
and
537
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,379:
curved.
538
00:03:58,379 --> 00:03:58,979:
Fingers
539
00:03:58,979 --> 00:03:59,430:

540
00:03:59,430 --> 00:03:59,550:
my
541
00:03:59,550 --> 00:04:00,300:
skin,
542
00:04:00,300 --> 00:04:00,960:
liberating
543
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:01,289:
deep
544
00:04:01,289 --> 00:04:01,770:

00:04:01,770 --> 00:04:02,129:
fur
546
00:04:02,129 --> 00:04:02,340:
from
547
00:04:02,340 --> 00:04:03,210:
underneath,
548
00:04:03,210 --> 00:04:03,419:
which
549
00:04:03,419 --> 00:04:03,930:
swept
550
00:04:03,930 --> 00:04:04,050:
up
551
00:04:04,050 --> 00:04:04,199:
my
552
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:04,560:
foot
553
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:04,770:
like
554
00:04:04,770 --> 00:04:04,830:
a
555
00:04:04,830 --> 00:04:05,250:
field
556
00:04:05,250 --> 00:04:05,370:
of
557
00:04:05,370 --> 00:04:06,569:
wheat.
558
00:04:06,569 --> 00:04:06,780:
I
559
00:04:06,780 --> 00:04:07,139:
opened
560
00:04:07,139 --> 00:04:07,349:
my
561
00:04:07,349 --> 00:04:07,650:
eyes
562
00:04:07,650 --> 00:04:07,770:
and
563
00:04:07,770 --> 00:04:08,219:
watched
564
00:04:08,219 --> 00:04:08,310:
in
565
00:04:08,310 --> 00:04:08,340:
a
566
00:04:08,340 --> 00:04:09,150:
nonchalant
567
00:04:09,150 --> 00:04:09,900:
gaze,
568
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:10,020:
the
569
00:04:10,020 --> 00:04:10,500:
void
570
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:10,979:
calming
571
00:04:10,979 --> 00:04:11,340:
me
572
00:04:11,340 --> 00:04:11,610:
until
573
00:04:11,610 --> 00:04:11,699:
the
574
00:04:11,699 --> 00:04:12,180:
change
575
00:04:12,180 --> 00:04:12,449:
felt
576
00:04:12,449 --> 00:04:12,569:
as
577
00:04:12,569 --> 00:04:13,080:
soothing
578
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:13,259:
as
579
00:04:13,259 --> 00:04:13,319:
a
580
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:13,800:
hot
581
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,449:
bath.
Those
582
00:04:15,449 --> 00:04:16,139:
ethereal
583
00:04:16,139 --> 00:04:16,589:
hands
584
00:04:16,589 --> 00:04:17,160:
pressed
585
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:17,339:
into
586
00:04:17,339 --> 00:04:17,459:
the

00:04:17,459 --> 00:04:17,730:
arch
588
00:04:17,730 --> 00:04:17,819:

00:04:17,819 --> 00:04:17,939:
my

foot,
591
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:19,290:
stretching
592
00:04:19,290 --> 00:04:19,379:
it
593
00:04:19,379 --> 00:04:19,589:
like
594
00:04:19,589 --> 00:04:20,610:
putty.
595
00:04:20,610 --> 00:04:20,790:
What
596
00:04:20,790 --> 00:04:21,155:
should
597
00:04:21,155 --> 00:04:21,300:
have
598
00:04:21,300 --> 00:04:21,449:
been
599
00:04:21,449 --> 00:04:21,930:

600
00:04:21,930 --> 00:04:22,319:
sent
601
00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:22,949:
ecstasy
602
00:04:22,949 --> 00:04:23,399:
roaring
603
00:04:23,399 --> 00:04:23,610:
through
604
00:04:23,610 --> 00:04:23,790:
me
605
00:04:23,790 --> 00:04:24,959:
instead.
606
00:04:24,959 --> 00:04:25,139:
I
607
00:04:25,139 --> 00:04:26,040:
gasped,
608
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:26,160:
and
609
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,310:
my
610
00:04:26,310 --> 00:04:26,670:
head
611
00:04:26,670 --> 00:04:27,149:
lolled
612
00:04:27,149 --> 00:04:27,540:
back
613
00:04:27,540 --> 00:04:27,629:
as
614
00:04:27,629 --> 00:04:27,810:
my
615
00:04:27,810 --> 00:04:28,230:
heel
616
00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:28,500:
grew
617
00:04:28,500 --> 00:04:29,129:
upward
618
00:04:29,129 --> 00:04:29,279:
and
619
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:29,370:
the

00:04:29,370 --> 00:04:29,699:
front
621
00:04:29,699 --> 00:04:29,759:

00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:30,779:
filled
625
00:04:30,779 --> 00:04:31,740:
out.
626
00:04:31,740 --> 00:04:31,860:

00:05:55,290 --> 00:05:55,500:
out
836
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:55,829:
one
837
00:05:55,829 --> 00:05:56,639:
climactic
838
00:05:56,639 --> 00:05:57,269:
howl
839
00:05:57,269 --> 00:05:57,540:
that
840
00:05:57,540 --> 00:05:57,959:
echoed
841
00:05:57,959 --> 00:05:58,199:
through
842
00:05:58,199 --> 00:05:58,290:
the
843
00:05:58,290 --> 00:06:00,120:
void.
As
844
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:00,240:
the
845
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:00,600:
pleasure
846
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,439:
faded,
847
00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:01,680:
an
848
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:02,310:
afterglow
849
00:06:02,310 --> 00:06:02,790:
settled
850
00:06:02,790 --> 00:06:03,509:
in.
851
00:06:03,509 --> 00:06:03,779:
My
852
00:06:03,779 --> 00:06:04,199:
eyes
853
00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:04,860:
fluttered,
854
00:06:04,860 --> 00:06:05,009:
and
855
00:06:05,009 --> 00:06:05,069:
I
856
00:06:05,069 --> 00:06:05,791:
surrendered
857
00:06:05,791 --> 00:06:05,873:
to
858
00:06:05,873 --> 00:06:05,970:
the
859
00:06:05,970 --> 00:06:06,569:
pleasant
860
00:06:06,569 --> 00:06:07,290:
embrace
861
00:06:07,290 --> 00:06:07,439:
of
862
00:06:07,439 --> 00:06:09,569:
sleep.
When
863
00:06:09,569 --> 00:06:09,660:
I
864
00:06:09,660 --> 00:06:10,019:
woke
865
00:06:10,019 --> 00:06:10,800:
up,
866
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:11,459:
water
867
00:06:11,459 --> 00:06:11,759:
was
868
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:12,360:
rushing
869
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,660:
into
870
00:06:12,660 --> 00:06:12,839:
my
871
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,910:
lungs.
Reality
872
00:06:14,910 --> 00:06:15,269:
struck
873
00:06:15,269 --> 00:06:15,480:
like
874
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:16,170:
lightning
875
00:06:16,170 --> 00:06:16,350:
and
876
00:06:16,350 --> 00:06:16,800:
returned
877
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:16,920:
me
878
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,040:
to
879
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,160:
the
880
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:17,730:
baptismal
881
00:06:17,730 --> 00:06:18,449:
pool.
882
00:06:18,449 --> 00:06:18,600:
I
883
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:19,379:
gasped,
884
00:06:19,379 --> 00:06:19,620:
which
885
00:06:19,620 --> 00:06:20,009:
only
886
00:06:20,009 --> 00:06:20,160:
drew
887
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:20,459:
more
888
00:06:20,459 --> 00:06:20,790:
holy
889
00:06:20,790 --> 00:06:21,089:
water
890
00:06:21,089 --> 00:06:21,480:
inside
891
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:21,629:
my
892
00:06:21,629 --> 00:06:22,319:
chest,
893
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:22,709:
burning
894
00:06:22,709 --> 00:06:22,949:
like
895
00:06:22,949 --> 00:06:23,939:
magma.
896
00:06:23,939 --> 00:06:24,060:
I
897
00:06:24,060 --> 00:06:24,209:
was
898
00:06:24,209 --> 00:06:24,449:
so
899
00:06:24,449 --> 00:06:25,410:
disoriented
900
00:06:25,410 --> 00:06:25,529:
that
901
00:06:25,529 --> 00:06:25,620:
I
902
00:06:25,620 --> 00:06:25,949:
couldn’t
903
00:06:25,949 --> 00:06:26,189:
right
904
00:06:26,189 --> 00:06:27,269:
myself.
905
00:06:27,269 --> 00:06:27,420:
I
906
00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:27,990:
flailed
907
00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:28,079:
and
908
00:06:28,079 --> 00:06:28,439:
tried
909
00:06:28,439 --> 00:06:28,500:
to
910
00:06:28,500 --> 00:06:28,800:
cry
911
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:28,980:
out
912
00:06:28,980 --> 00:06:29,129:
for
913
00:06:29,129 --> 00:06:29,759:
help,
914
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:30,240:
drowning
915
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:30,810:
pitifully
916
00:06:30,810 --> 00:06:30,899:
in
917
00:06:30,899 --> 00:06:30,959:
a
918
00:06:30,959 --> 00:06:31,379:
shallow
919
00:06:31,379 --> 00:06:31,769:
pool
920
00:06:31,769 --> 00:06:31,889:
of
921
00:06:31,889 --> 00:06:32,279:
God’s
922
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:32,519:
own
923
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:32,939:
blessed
924
00:06:32,939 --> 00:06:34,470:
waters.
But
925
00:06:34,470 --> 00:06:34,860:
just
926
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:34,949:
as
927
00:06:34,949 --> 00:06:35,129:
my
928
00:06:35,129 --> 00:06:35,819:
consciousness
929
00:06:35,819 --> 00:06:36,209:
began
930
00:06:36,209 --> 00:06:36,269:
to
931
00:06:36,269 --> 00:06:37,019:
fade,
932
00:06:37,019 --> 00:06:37,139:
I
933
00:06:37,139 --> 00:06:37,470:
felt
934
00:06:37,470 --> 00:06:37,769:
someone
935
00:06:37,769 --> 00:06:38,100:
wrap
936
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:38,250:
their
937
00:06:38,250 --> 00:06:38,519:
arms
938
00:06:38,519 --> 00:06:38,879:
around
939
00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:39,269:
me
940
00:06:39,269 --> 00:06:39,509:
and
941
00:06:39,509 --> 00:06:40,740:
pull.
942
00:06:40,740 --> 00:06:40,920:
In
943
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:41,399:
one
944
00:06:41,399 --> 00:06:41,759:
big
945
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:42,480:
lift,
946
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:42,660:
I
947
00:06:42,660 --> 00:06:43,110:
burst
948
00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:43,290:
through
949
00:06:43,290 --> 00:06:43,379:
the
950
00:06:43,379 --> 00:06:44,100:
water,
951
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:44,910:
choking,
952
00:06:44,910 --> 00:06:45,600:
coughing,
953
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:45,839:
and
954
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,819:
retching.
“I’ve
955
00:06:47,819 --> 00:06:48,060:
got
956
00:06:48,060 --> 00:06:48,870:
you!
957
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:49,079:
Come
958
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:49,259:
on,
959
00:06:49,259 --> 00:06:49,680:
Petra,
960
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:50,009:
cough
961
00:06:50,009 --> 00:06:50,100:
it
962
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:50,819:
up.
963
00:06:50,819 --> 00:06:51,029:
There
964
00:06:51,029 --> 00:06:51,149:
you
965
00:06:51,149 --> 00:06:52,829:
go.”
I
966
00:06:52,829 --> 00:06:53,279:
coughed
967
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:53,399:
up
968
00:06:53,399 --> 00:06:53,490:
the
969
00:06:53,490 --> 00:06:53,879:
last
970
00:06:53,879 --> 00:06:53,970:
of
971
00:06:53,970 --> 00:06:54,029:
the
972
00:06:54,029 --> 00:06:54,329:
holy
973
00:06:54,329 --> 00:06:54,930:
water,
974
00:06:54,930 --> 00:06:55,379:
returning
975
00:06:55,379 --> 00:06:55,514:
it
976
00:06:55,514 --> 00:06:56,069:
soiled
977
00:06:56,069 --> 00:06:56,160:
and
978
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:56,639:
cloudy
979
00:06:56,639 --> 00:06:56,759:
to
980
00:06:56,759 --> 00:06:56,850:
the
981
00:06:56,850 --> 00:06:57,360:
pristine
982
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,350:
pool.
983
00:06:58,350 --> 00:06:58,709:
Weak
984
00:06:58,709 --> 00:06:58,829:
and
985
00:06:58,829 --> 00:06:59,970:
disoriented,
986
00:06:59,970 --> 00:07:00,120:
I
987
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:00,300:
would
988
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:00,420:
have
989
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:00,839:
keeled
990
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,170:
over
991
00:07:01,170 --> 00:07:01,319:
if
992
00:07:01,319 --> 00:07:01,529:
not
993
00:07:01,529 --> 00:07:01,649:
for
994
00:07:01,649 --> 00:07:01,800:
the
995
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:02,160:
arms
996
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:02,490:
holding
997
00:07:02,490 --> 00:07:02,639:
me
998
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:04,620:
steady.
“Woah,
999
00:07:04,620 --> 00:07:04,889:
not
1000
00:07:04,889 --> 00:07:05,730:
here.
1001
00:07:05,730 --> 00:07:06,029:
Let’s
1002
00:07:06,029 --> 00:07:06,209:
get
1003
00:07:06,209 --> 00:07:06,329:
you
1004
00:07:06,329 --> 00:07:06,480:
out
1005
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:06,569:
of
1006
00:07:06,569 --> 00:07:06,660:
the
1007
00:07:06,660 --> 00:07:06,990:
pool
1008
00:07:06,990 --> 00:07:07,529:
first,
1009
00:07:07,529 --> 00:07:09,149:
alright?”
I
1010
00:07:09,149 --> 00:07:09,540:
barely
1011
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:10,019:
understood
1012
00:07:10,019 --> 00:07:10,199:
where
1013
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:10,319:
I
1014
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:11,100:
was,
1015
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:11,430:
much
1016
00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:11,759:
less
1017
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:11,939:
what
1018
00:07:11,939 --> 00:07:12,089:
my
1019
00:07:12,089 --> 00:07:12,600:
rescuer
1020
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:12,720:
had
1021
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:13,019:
just
1022
00:07:13,019 --> 00:07:13,860:
said.
1023
00:07:13,860 --> 00:07:15,180:
Heart pounding,
1024
00:07:15,180 --> 00:07:15,329:
they
1025
00:07:15,329 --> 00:07:15,600:
led
1026
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:15,779:
me
1027
00:07:15,779 --> 00:07:16,079:
half
1028
00:07:16,079 --> 00:07:16,589:
blind
1029
00:07:16,589 --> 00:07:16,740:
up
1030
00:07:16,740 --> 00:07:16,860:
the

baptismal
1032
00:07:17,430 --> 00:07:18,509:
steps.
1033
00:07:18,509 --> 00:07:18,720:
My
1034
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,230:
rescuer
1035
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:19,649:
lowered
1036
00:07:19,649 --> 00:07:19,740:
me
1037
00:07:19,740 --> 00:07:19,889:
to
1038
00:07:19,889 --> 00:07:19,980:
the

finally
1060
00:07:29,790 --> 00:07:30,420:
recognized

00:07:30,420 --> 00:07:30,509:
the

00:07:31,889 --> 00:07:32,009:
they
1068
00:07:32,009 --> 00:07:32,579:
calmingly
1069
00:07:32,579 --> 00:07:33,000:

“Mark?”
1072
00:07:35,639 --> 00:07:35,819:
I
1073
00:07:35,819 --> 00:07:37,709:
asked. “What…
1074
00:07:37,709 --> 00:07:38,040:
what
1075
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,560:
happened?”
“Shhh.
1076
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:40,769:
Get

00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:42,629:
Deep
1081
00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:44,550:
breaths.”
I
1082
00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:44,819:
did
1083
00:07:44,819 --> 00:07:44,939:
as
1084
00:07:44,939 --> 00:07:45,060:
I

1090
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:47,189:
pushing

wheezing

Mark
1098
00:07:49,410 --> 00:07:49,769:
spoke
1099
00:07:49,769 --> 00:07:49,860:
to
1100
00:07:49,860 --> 00:07:50,250:
someone
1101
00:07:50,250 --> 00:07:51,779:
else.
“Stay
1102
00:07:51,779 --> 00:07:52,079:
back
1103
00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:52,230:
for
1104
00:07:52,230 --> 00:07:52,860:
now.
1105
00:07:52,860 --> 00:07:53,009:
We
1106
00:07:53,009 --> 00:07:53,310:
don’t
1107
00:07:53,310 --> 00:07:53,579:

00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,649:
him.”
“He’s
1111
00:07:55,649 --> 00:07:56,009:
okay
1112
00:07:56,009 --> 00:07:56,430:
though,
1113
00:07:56,430 --> 00:07:57,839:
right?”
I
1114
00:07:57,839 --> 00:07:58,439:
recognized
1115
00:07:58,439 --> 00:07:58,709:

00:07:59,040 --> 00:07:59,189:
as
1118
00:07:59,189 --> 00:08:01,560:
well. “S-Seth?”
1119
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:01,769:
I
1120
00:08:01,769 --> 00:08:02,490:
asked,
1121
00:08:02,490 --> 00:08:02,939:
reaching

00:08:03,660 --> 00:08:04,199:
forms
1127
00:08:04,199 --> 00:08:04,319:
in
1128
00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:04,589:
front
1129
00:08:04,589 --> 00:08:04,680:
of
1130
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,029:
me.
“I’m

00:08:06,029 --> 00:08:06,810:
here,”
1132
00:08:06,810 --> 00:08:07,170:
Seth
1133
00:08:07,170 --> 00:08:07,980:
said,
1134
00:08:07,980 --> 00:08:08,220:
too
1135
00:08:08,220 --> 00:08:08,699:
concerned
1136
00:08:08,699 --> 00:08:08,790:
to
1137
00:08:08,790 --> 00:08:09,089:
heed
1138
00:08:09,089 --> 00:08:09,420:
Mark’s
1139
00:08:09,420 --> 00:08:10,350:
warning.
1140
00:08:10,350 --> 00:08:10,529:
He
1141
00:08:10,529 --> 00:08:10,949:
grabbed
1142
00:08:10,949 --> 00:08:11,129:
my

00:08:11,129 --> 00:08:11,519:

1144
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:11,639:
and
1145
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:11,850:
gave
1146
00:08:11,850 --> 00:08:11,910:
it
1147
00:08:11,910 --> 00:08:12,000:
a

00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:12,689:
reassuring
1149
00:08:12,689 --> 00:08:14,220:
squeeze.
I
1150
00:08:14,220 --> 00:08:14,790:
smiled
1151
00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:14,939:
at
1152
00:08:14,939 --> 00:08:15,600:
him,
1153
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:15,810:
though
1154
00:08:15,810 --> 00:08:16,199:
something
1155
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:16,470:
about
1156
00:08:16,470 --> 00:08:16,560:
the
1157
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:16,920:

1161
00:08:17,590 --> 00:08:17,970:
felt
1162
00:08:17,970 --> 00:08:19,230:
different.
1163
00:08:19,230 --> 00:08:19,410:
He
1164
00:08:19,410 --> 00:08:19,769:
gripped
1165
00:08:19,769 --> 00:08:19,949:
my

00:08:19,949 --> 00:08:20,310:

1167
00:08:20,310 --> 00:08:20,730:
tighter

response,
1170
00:08:21,899 --> 00:08:22,110:
and
1171
00:08:22,110 --> 00:08:22,199:
I
1172
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:22,500:
heard
1173
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:22,649:

1179
00:08:24,029 --> 00:08:24,209:

big

The

last

1185
00:08:26,790 --> 00:08:26,910:
had
1186
00:08:26,910 --> 00:08:27,209:
seen

congregation.
1205
00:08:32,490 --> 00:08:32,730:
No

00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:34,740:
so
1215
00:08:34,740 --> 00:08:35,129:
quick
1216
00:08:35,129 --> 00:08:35,279:

1222
00:08:36,450 --> 00:08:37,679:

1223
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,100:
whatever
1224
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:38,250:

just

00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:39,809:
happened.
1227
00:08:39,809 --> 00:08:40,049:
There
1228
00:08:40,049 --> 00:08:40,259:

1232
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:40,980:
would

00:08:45,059 --> 00:08:45,269:
was
1244
00:08:45,269 --> 00:08:45,600:
only
1245
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:45,779:
when
1246
00:08:45,779 --> 00:08:45,809:
I
1247
00:08:45,809 --> 00:08:46,230:
started
1248
00:08:46,230 --> 00:08:46,440:
getting
1249
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:46,590:
my
1250
00:08:46,590 --> 00:08:47,100:
senses
1251
00:08:47,100 --> 00:08:47,399:
back
1252
00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:47,549:
that
1253
00:08:47,549 --> 00:08:47,669:
I
1254
00:08:47,669 --> 00:08:48,299:
realized
1255
00:08:48,299 --> 00:08:48,720:
Seth’s
1256
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:49,169:
hands
1257
00:08:49,169 --> 00:08:49,500:
didn’t
1258
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:49,889:
feel
1259
00:08:49,889 --> 00:08:50,429:
smooth
1260
00:08:50,429 --> 00:08:50,549:
and
1261
00:08:50,549 --> 00:08:51,090:
slender
1262
00:08:51,090 --> 00:08:51,330:
like
1263
00:08:51,330 --> 00:08:52,529:
before;
1264
00:08:52,529 --> 00:08:53,070:
instead
1265
00:08:53,070 --> 00:08:53,220:
they
1266
00:08:53,220 --> 00:08:53,370:
were
1267
00:08:53,370 --> 00:08:54,179:
large,
1268
00:08:54,179 --> 00:08:55,139:
rounded,
1269
00:08:55,139 --> 00:08:55,289:
with
1270
00:08:55,289 --> 00:08:55,350:
a
1271
00:08:55,350 --> 00:08:55,860:
texture
1272
00:08:55,860 --> 00:08:55,980:
that
1273
00:08:55,980 --> 00:08:56,309:
felt
1274
00:08:56,309 --> 00:08:57,299:
like…
1275
00:08:57,299 --> 00:08:58,799:
fur.
1276
00:08:58,799 --> 00:08:59,070:
My
1277
00:08:59,070 --> 00:08:59,490:
vision
1278
00:08:59,490 --> 00:08:59,970:
finally
1279
00:08:59,970 --> 00:09:01,200:
resolved.
1280
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:01,350:
I
1281
00:09:01,350 --> 00:09:02,370:
froze,
1282
00:09:02,370 --> 00:09:02,669:
like
1283
00:09:02,669 --> 00:09:03,149:
prey
1284
00:09:03,149 --> 00:09:03,570:
meeting
1285
00:09:03,570 --> 00:09:03,750:
the
1286
00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:04,049:
eyes
1287
00:09:04,049 --> 00:09:04,169:
of
1288
00:09:04,169 --> 00:09:04,230:
a
1289
00:09:04,230 --> 00:09:07,019:
predator.
“Petra?
1290
00:09:07,019 --> 00:09:07,139:
Are
1291
00:09:07,139 --> 00:09:08,429:
you alright?”
1292
00:09:08,429 --> 00:09:08,549:
the
1293
00:09:08,549 --> 00:09:08,940:
beast
1294
00:09:08,940 --> 00:09:09,029:
in
1295
00:09:09,029 --> 00:09:09,299:
front
1296
00:09:09,299 --> 00:09:09,389:
of
1297
00:09:09,389 --> 00:09:09,539:
me
1298
00:09:09,539 --> 00:09:10,320:
asked,
1299
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:10,559:
its
1300
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:11,159:
inhuman
1301
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:11,519:
jaw
1302
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:12,029:
somehow
1303
00:09:12,029 --> 00:09:12,539:
forming
1304
00:09:12,539 --> 00:09:13,019:
Seth’s
1305
00:09:13,019 --> 00:09:14,370:
voice.
1306
00:09:14,370 --> 00:09:14,519:
It
1307
00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:14,820:
looked
1308
00:09:14,820 --> 00:09:15,029:
like
1309
00:09:15,029 --> 00:09:15,090:
a
1310
00:09:15,090 --> 00:09:15,990:
tiger,
1311
00:09:15,990 --> 00:09:16,139:
with
1312
00:09:16,139 --> 00:09:16,320:
that
1313
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:16,950:
familiar
1314
00:09:16,950 --> 00:09:17,399:
orange,
1315
00:09:17,399 --> 00:09:17,789:
black,
1316
00:09:17,789 --> 00:09:17,909:
and
1317
00:09:17,909 --> 00:09:18,210:
white
1318
00:09:18,210 --> 00:09:19,200:
fur,
1319
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:19,350:
but
1320
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:19,470:
it
1321
00:09:19,470 --> 00:09:19,679:
wore
1322
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:20,250:
clothes
1323
00:09:20,250 --> 00:09:20,399:
on
1324
00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:20,940:
its lithe
1325
00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:21,629:
body,
1326
00:09:21,629 --> 00:09:21,779:
and
1327
00:09:21,779 --> 00:09:21,870:
it
1328
00:09:21,870 --> 00:09:22,379:
crouched
1329
00:09:22,379 --> 00:09:22,529:
on
1330
00:09:22,529 --> 00:09:22,769:
two
1331
00:09:22,769 --> 00:09:23,220:
legs
1332
00:09:23,220 --> 00:09:23,429:
that
1333
00:09:23,429 --> 00:09:23,759:
bent
1334
00:09:23,759 --> 00:09:23,909:
at
1335
00:09:23,909 --> 00:09:24,210:
odd
1336
00:09:24,210 --> 00:09:25,320:
angles.
1337
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:25,529:
Its
1338
00:09:25,529 --> 00:09:26,039:
feline
1339
00:09:26,039 --> 00:09:26,399:
face
1340
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:26,580:
was
1341
00:09:26,580 --> 00:09:26,850:
so
1342
00:09:26,850 --> 00:09:27,929:
expressive
1343
00:09:27,929 --> 00:09:28,080:
that
1344
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:28,169:
I
1345
00:09:28,169 --> 00:09:28,500:
couldn’t
1346
00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:28,889:
deny
1347
00:09:28,889 --> 00:09:28,980:
it
1348
00:09:28,980 --> 00:09:29,129:
was
1349
00:09:29,129 --> 00:09:30,090:
Seth;
1350
00:09:30,090 --> 00:09:30,330:
his
1351
00:09:30,330 --> 00:09:30,720:
emerald
1352
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:30,990:
eyes
1353
00:09:30,990 --> 00:09:31,440:
shined
1354
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:31,710:
too
1355
00:09:31,710 --> 00:09:32,159:
bright
1356
00:09:32,159 --> 00:09:32,279:
with
1357
00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:32,460:
that
1358
00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:33,029:
familiar
1359
00:09:33,029 --> 00:09:33,450:
worry
1360
00:09:33,450 --> 00:09:33,600:
and
1361
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,460:
care.
“W-what
1362
00:09:35,460 --> 00:09:35,700:
are
1363
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:36,539:
you?”
1364
00:09:36,539 --> 00:09:36,690:
I
1365
00:09:36,690 --> 00:09:38,309:
asked.
“Petra,
1366
00:09:38,309 --> 00:09:38,549:
it’s
1367
00:09:38,549 --> 00:09:39,269:
me,”
1368
00:09:39,269 --> 00:09:39,389:
the
1369
00:09:39,389 --> 00:09:39,750:
tiger
1370
00:09:39,750 --> 00:09:40,710:
said. “I
1371
00:09:40,710 --> 00:09:40,919:
know
1372
00:09:40,919 --> 00:09:41,009:
I
1373
00:09:41,009 --> 00:09:41,220:
look
1374
00:09:41,220 --> 00:09:42,000:
different,
1375
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:42,149:
but
1376
00:09:42,149 --> 00:09:42,240:
I
1377
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:42,720:
promise
1378
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:42,899:
it’s
1379
00:09:42,899 --> 00:09:43,710:
true.
1380
00:09:43,710 --> 00:09:44,070:
Please
1381
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:44,250:
don’t
1382
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:44,519:
freak
1383
00:09:44,519 --> 00:09:46,080:
out.”
I
1384
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:46,289:
was
1385
00:09:46,289 --> 00:09:46,950:
certainly
1386
00:09:46,950 --> 00:09:47,399:
freaking
1387
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:48,059:
out.
1388
00:09:48,059 --> 00:09:48,299:
How
1389
00:09:48,299 --> 00:09:48,480:
could
1390
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:48,570:
I
1391
00:09:48,570 --> 00:09:49,559:
not?
1392
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:49,740:
But
1393
00:09:49,740 --> 00:09:49,830:
I
1394
00:09:49,830 --> 00:09:50,129:
held
1395
00:09:50,129 --> 00:09:50,220:
the
1396
00:09:50,220 --> 00:09:50,610:
panic
1397
00:09:50,610 --> 00:09:50,789:
in
1398
00:09:50,789 --> 00:09:51,330:
somehow
1399
00:09:51,330 --> 00:09:51,450:
and
1400
00:09:51,450 --> 00:09:51,750:
just
1401
00:09:51,750 --> 00:09:52,620:
responded
1402
00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:52,769:
with
1403
00:09:52,769 --> 00:09:52,830:
a
1404
00:09:52,830 --> 00:09:53,340:
single
1405
00:09:53,340 --> 00:09:53,940:
hesitant
1406
00:09:53,940 --> 00:09:55,770:
nod.
Seth
1407
00:09:55,770 --> 00:09:56,009:
took
1408
00:09:56,009 --> 00:09:56,070:
a
1409
00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:56,399:
deep
1410
00:09:56,399 --> 00:09:56,879:
breath
1411
00:09:56,879 --> 00:09:57,029:
and
1412
00:09:57,029 --> 00:09:57,360:
looked
1413
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:57,539:
up
1414
00:09:57,539 --> 00:09:57,629:
at
1415
00:09:57,629 --> 00:09:57,990:
something
1416
00:09:57,990 --> 00:09:58,350:
behind
1417
00:09:58,350 --> 00:10:00,179:
me. “Okay,
1418
00:10:00,179 --> 00:10:00,330:
if
1419
00:10:00,330 --> 00:10:00,450:
he
1420
00:10:00,450 --> 00:10:00,629:
can
1421
00:10:00,629 --> 00:10:01,019:
handle
1422
00:10:01,019 --> 00:10:01,139:
what
1423
00:10:01,139 --> 00:10:01,289:
I
1424
00:10:01,289 --> 00:10:01,590:
turned
1425
00:10:01,590 --> 00:10:02,460:
into,
1426
00:10:02,460 --> 00:10:02,580:
do
1427
00:10:02,580 --> 00:10:02,669:
you
1428
00:10:02,669 --> 00:10:02,879:
think
1429
00:10:02,879 --> 00:10:03,000:
he
1430
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:03,149:
can
1431
00:10:03,149 --> 00:10:03,509:
handle
1432
00:10:03,509 --> 00:10:03,690:
you
1433
00:10:03,690 --> 00:10:06,125:
too?”
“Maybe,”
1434
00:10:06,125 --> 00:10:06,274:
came
1435
00:10:06,274 --> 00:10:06,634:
Mark’s
1436
00:10:06,634 --> 00:10:07,745:
voice. “I
1437
00:10:07,745 --> 00:10:08,225:
suppose
1438
00:10:08,225 --> 00:10:08,404:
we’d
1439
00:10:08,404 --> 00:10:08,615:
better
1440
00:10:08,615 --> 00:10:09,004:
find
1441
00:10:09,004 --> 00:10:10,534:
out.”
Mark
1442
00:10:10,534 --> 00:10:11,014:
circled
1443
00:10:11,014 --> 00:10:11,345:
around
1444
00:10:11,345 --> 00:10:11,524:
me
1445
00:10:11,524 --> 00:10:11,644:
and
1446
00:10:11,644 --> 00:10:11,975:
came
1447
00:10:11,975 --> 00:10:12,154:
into
1448
00:10:12,154 --> 00:10:12,965:
view.
1449
00:10:12,965 --> 00:10:13,054:
I
1450
00:10:13,054 --> 00:10:13,414:
saw
1451
00:10:13,414 --> 00:10:13,654:
his
1452
00:10:13,654 --> 00:10:13,955:
hand
1453
00:10:13,955 --> 00:10:14,434:
first
1454
00:10:14,434 --> 00:10:14,554:
as
1455
00:10:14,554 --> 00:10:14,615:
it
1456
00:10:14,615 --> 00:10:15,034:
landed
1457
00:10:15,034 --> 00:10:15,335:
upon
1458
00:10:15,335 --> 00:10:16,384:
Seth’s shoulder,
1459
00:10:16,384 --> 00:10:16,565:
and
1460
00:10:16,565 --> 00:10:16,625:
it
1461
00:10:16,625 --> 00:10:16,774:
was
1462
00:10:16,774 --> 00:10:17,164:
so
1463
00:10:17,164 --> 00:10:17,794:
alien
1464
00:10:17,794 --> 00:10:17,975:
that
1465
00:10:17,975 --> 00:10:18,065:
I
1466
00:10:18,065 --> 00:10:18,215:
would
1467
00:10:18,215 --> 00:10:18,304:
have
1468
00:10:18,304 --> 00:10:18,875:
scrambled
1469
00:10:18,875 --> 00:10:19,144:
back
1470
00:10:19,144 --> 00:10:19,264:
in
1471
00:10:19,264 --> 00:10:19,745:
fright
1472
00:10:19,745 --> 00:10:19,894:
if
1473
00:10:19,894 --> 00:10:20,044:
I’d
1474
00:10:20,044 --> 00:10:20,284:
had
1475
00:10:20,284 --> 00:10:20,404:
the
1476
00:10:20,404 --> 00:10:21,725:
energy.
1477
00:10:21,725 --> 00:10:22,085:
Mark’s
1478
00:10:22,085 --> 00:10:22,414:
hand
1479
00:10:22,414 --> 00:10:22,625:
was
1480
00:10:22,625 --> 00:10:23,134:
red
1481
00:10:23,134 --> 00:10:23,345:
and
1482
00:10:23,345 --> 00:10:24,394:
scaled,
1483
00:10:24,394 --> 00:10:24,575:
with
1484
00:10:24,575 --> 00:10:25,024:
jet
1485
00:10:25,024 --> 00:10:25,355:
black
1486
00:10:25,355 --> 00:10:25,894:
claws
1487
00:10:25,894 --> 00:10:26,014:
that
1488
00:10:26,014 --> 00:10:26,345:
seemed
1489
00:10:26,345 --> 00:10:26,825:
moments
1490
00:10:26,825 --> 00:10:27,154:
away
1491
00:10:27,154 --> 00:10:27,365:
from
1492
00:10:27,365 --> 00:10:27,815:
tearing
1493
00:10:27,815 --> 00:10:28,024:
into
1494
00:10:28,024 --> 00:10:28,144:
the
1495
00:10:28,144 --> 00:10:28,625:
tiger’s
1496
00:10:28,625 --> 00:10:30,154:
flesh.
My
1497
00:10:30,154 --> 00:10:30,424:
head
1498
00:10:30,424 --> 00:10:30,995:
snapped
1499
00:10:30,995 --> 00:10:31,174:
up
1500
00:10:31,174 --> 00:10:31,294:
to
1501
00:10:31,294 --> 00:10:31,684:
behold
1502
00:10:31,684 --> 00:10:31,804:
the
1503
00:10:31,804 --> 00:10:32,495:
impossible
1504
00:10:32,495 --> 00:10:32,975:
beast
1505
00:10:32,975 --> 00:10:33,514:
towering
1506
00:10:33,514 --> 00:10:33,815:
above
1507
00:10:33,815 --> 00:10:34,745:
me.
1508
00:10:34,745 --> 00:10:34,924:
At
1509
00:10:34,924 --> 00:10:35,524:
first,
1510
00:10:35,524 --> 00:10:35,644:
I
1511
00:10:35,644 --> 00:10:35,914:
thought
1512
00:10:35,914 --> 00:10:36,004:
he
1513
00:10:36,004 --> 00:10:36,154:
was
1514
00:10:36,154 --> 00:10:36,365:
some
1515
00:10:36,365 --> 00:10:36,634:
sort
1516
00:10:36,634 --> 00:10:36,725:
of
1517
00:10:36,725 --> 00:10:37,804:
lizard.
1518
00:10:37,804 --> 00:10:38,075:
That
1519
00:10:38,075 --> 00:10:38,615:
changed
1520
00:10:38,615 --> 00:10:38,764:
when
1521
00:10:38,764 --> 00:10:38,825:
I
1522
00:10:38,825 --> 00:10:39,245:
noticed
1523
00:10:39,245 --> 00:10:39,365:
the
1524
00:10:39,365 --> 00:10:39,754:
wings
1525
00:10:39,754 --> 00:10:39,875:
on
1526
00:10:39,875 --> 00:10:40,054:
his
1527
00:10:40,054 --> 00:10:40,835:
back,
1528
00:10:40,835 --> 00:10:41,434:
standing
1529
00:10:41,434 --> 00:10:41,615:
out
1530
00:10:41,615 --> 00:10:41,825:
from
1531
00:10:41,825 --> 00:10:41,914:
the
1532
00:10:41,914 --> 00:10:42,485:
tatters
1533
00:10:42,485 --> 00:10:42,634:
where
1534
00:10:42,634 --> 00:10:42,754:
they
1535
00:10:42,754 --> 00:10:42,934:
had
1536
00:10:42,934 --> 00:10:43,264:
ripped
1537
00:10:43,264 --> 00:10:43,504:
through
1538
00:10:43,504 --> 00:10:43,625:
his
1539
00:10:43,625 --> 00:10:44,884:
shirt.
1540
00:10:44,884 --> 00:10:45,245:
Just
1541
00:10:45,245 --> 00:10:45,455:
like
1542
00:10:45,455 --> 00:10:46,264:
Seth,
1543
00:10:46,264 --> 00:10:46,624:
Mark
1544
00:10:46,624 --> 00:10:46,774:
had
1545
00:10:46,774 --> 00:10:47,554:
transformed
1546
00:10:47,554 --> 00:10:47,794:
into
1547
00:10:47,794 --> 00:10:48,065:
some
1548
00:10:48,065 --> 00:10:48,335:
sort
1549
00:10:48,335 --> 00:10:48,455:
of
1550
00:10:48,455 --> 00:10:49,534:
beast,
1551
00:10:49,534 --> 00:10:49,745:
but
1552
00:10:49,745 --> 00:10:49,985:
one
1553
00:10:49,985 --> 00:10:50,105:
that
1554
00:10:50,105 --> 00:10:50,225:
was
1555
00:10:50,225 --> 00:10:50,674:
supposed
1556
00:10:50,674 --> 00:10:50,794:
to
1557
00:10:50,794 --> 00:10:50,914:
have
1558
00:10:50,914 --> 00:10:51,095:
been
1559
00:10:51,095 --> 00:10:51,815:
entirely
1560
00:10:51,815 --> 00:10:54,034:
mythical.
“Hun,
1561
00:10:54,034 --> 00:10:54,274:
it’s
1562
00:10:54,274 --> 00:10:54,815:
me,
1563
00:10:54,815 --> 00:10:56,075:
Mark.”
1564
00:10:56,075 --> 00:10:56,195:
The
1565
00:10:56,195 --> 00:10:56,615:
dragon
1566
00:10:56,615 --> 00:10:57,065:
crouched
1567
00:10:57,065 --> 00:10:57,304:
next
1568
00:10:57,304 --> 00:10:57,424:
to
1569
00:10:57,424 --> 00:10:57,965:
Seth,
1570
00:10:57,965 --> 00:10:58,115:
and
1571
00:10:58,115 --> 00:10:58,264:
his
1572
00:10:58,264 --> 00:10:59,164:
fiery-orange
1573
00:10:59,164 --> 00:10:59,554:
eyes
1574
00:10:59,554 --> 00:10:59,855:
locked
1575
00:10:59,855 --> 00:11:00,004:
with
1576
00:11:00,004 --> 00:11:01,325:
mine. “It’s
1577
00:11:01,325 --> 00:11:01,504:
been
1578
00:11:01,504 --> 00:11:01,654:
an
1579
00:11:01,654 --> 00:11:01,985:
hour
1580
00:11:01,985 --> 00:11:02,254:
since
1581
00:11:02,254 --> 00:11:02,345:
you
1582
00:11:02,345 --> 00:11:02,644:
went
1583
00:11:02,644 --> 00:11:03,304:
under.
1584
00:11:03,304 --> 00:11:03,455:
We
1585
00:11:03,455 --> 00:11:03,605:
were
1586
00:11:03,605 --> 00:11:03,784:
all
1587
00:11:03,784 --> 00:11:04,174:
taken
1588
00:11:04,174 --> 00:11:04,955:
somewhere,
1589
00:11:04,955 --> 00:11:05,134:
and
1590
00:11:05,134 --> 00:11:05,254:
in
1591
00:11:05,254 --> 00:11:05,465:
that
1592
00:11:05,465 --> 00:11:05,855:
time
1593
00:11:05,855 --> 00:11:06,634:
we’ve…
1594
00:11:06,634 --> 00:11:07,325:
well,
1595
00:11:07,325 --> 00:11:07,565:
we’re
1596
00:11:07,565 --> 00:11:07,924:
different
1597
00:11:07,924 --> 00:11:08,914:
now.”
1598
00:11:08,914 --> 00:11:09,065:
He
1599
00:11:09,065 --> 00:11:09,575:
gestured
1600
00:11:09,575 --> 00:11:09,875:
down
1601
00:11:09,875 --> 00:11:09,934:
at
1602
00:11:09,934 --> 00:11:11,225:
himself. “Do
1603
00:11:11,225 --> 00:11:11,404:
you
1604
00:11:11,404 --> 00:11:11,975:
understand
1605
00:11:11,975 --> 00:11:12,184:
you’re
1606
00:11:12,184 --> 00:11:12,575:
different
1607
00:11:12,575 --> 00:11:13,924:
too?”
I
1608
00:11:13,924 --> 00:11:14,254:
couldn’t
1609
00:11:14,254 --> 00:11:14,855:
comprehend
1610
00:11:14,855 --> 00:11:15,004:
what
1611
00:11:15,004 --> 00:11:15,125:
he
1612
00:11:15,125 --> 00:11:15,424:
meant
1613
00:11:15,424 --> 00:11:15,514:
at
1614
00:11:15,514 --> 00:11:16,264:
first,
1615
00:11:16,264 --> 00:11:16,595:
before
1616
00:11:16,595 --> 00:11:17,105:
remembering
1617
00:11:17,105 --> 00:11:17,254:
my
1618
00:11:17,254 --> 00:11:18,455:
vision.
1619
00:11:18,455 --> 00:11:18,575:
I
1620
00:11:18,575 --> 00:11:18,875:
drew
1621
00:11:18,875 --> 00:11:19,054:
my
1622
00:11:19,054 --> 00:11:19,475:
hands
1623
00:11:19,475 --> 00:11:19,625:
from
1624
00:11:19,625 --> 00:11:20,044:
Seth’s
1625
00:11:20,044 --> 00:11:20,495:
grasp
1626
00:11:20,495 --> 00:11:20,615:
and
1627
00:11:20,615 --> 00:11:20,855:
looked
1628
00:11:20,855 --> 00:11:20,945:
at
1629
00:11:20,945 --> 00:11:22,054:
them—the
1630
00:11:22,054 --> 00:11:22,475:
same
1631
00:11:22,475 --> 00:11:22,985:
paws
1632
00:11:22,985 --> 00:11:23,164:
from
1633
00:11:23,164 --> 00:11:23,254:
the
1634
00:11:23,254 --> 00:11:24,245:
void.
1635
00:11:24,245 --> 00:11:25,235:
Trembling,
1636
00:11:25,235 --> 00:11:25,355:
I
1637
00:11:25,355 --> 00:11:25,684:
brought
1638
00:11:25,684 --> 00:11:25,835:
them
1639
00:11:25,835 --> 00:11:25,924:
to
1640
00:11:25,924 --> 00:11:26,075:
my
1641
00:11:26,075 --> 00:11:26,465:
face
1642
00:11:26,465 --> 00:11:26,585:
and
1643
00:11:26,585 --> 00:11:26,893:
felt
1644
00:11:26,893 --> 00:11:27,004:
the
1645
00:11:27,004 --> 00:11:27,575:
long,
1646
00:11:27,575 --> 00:11:27,965:

“No

I

1659
00:11:34,264 --> 00:11:34,384:
I
1660
00:11:34,384 --> 00:11:34,745:
tried
1661
00:11:34,745 --> 00:11:34,804:

1672
00:11:38,044 --> 00:11:38,195:
but
1673
00:11:38,195 --> 00:11:38,284:
I

1685
00:11:42,424 --> 00:11:42,575:
I

00:11:42,575 --> 00:11:42,904:

1688
00:11:43,355 --> 00:11:43,445:
and
1689
00:11:43,445 --> 00:11:43,715:
caught
1690
00:11:43,715 --> 00:11:44,044:
sight
1691
00:11:44,044 --> 00:11:44,105:

1695
00:11:45,184 --> 00:11:45,274:

00:11:46,085 --> 00:11:46,294:

the void.
1704
00:11:49,235 --> 00:11:49,325:
I
1705
00:11:49,325 --> 00:11:49,924:
scrambled
1706
00:11:49,924 --> 00:11:50,164:

00:11:51,394 --> 00:11:51,695:
looked

1718
00:11:53,075 --> 00:11:53,375:
There
1719
00:11:53,375 --> 00:11:53,465:
I
1720
00:11:53,465 --> 00:11:53,705:
saw

my

1733
00:11:58,445 --> 00:11:58,623:
it
1734
00:11:58,623 --> 00:11:59,105:
somehow
1735
00:11:59,105 --> 00:11:59,524:
felt
1736
00:11:59,524 --> 00:11:59,975:

1743
00:12:01,835 --> 00:12:07,115:

“I… I’m a—”
“You’re a wolf!”

said,
1746
00:12:07,804 --> 00:12:08,254:
crawling
1747
00:12:08,254 --> 00:12:08,404:

1751
00:12:09,605 --> 00:12:09,695:
The

which

00:12:13,054 --> 00:12:13,625:

1768
00:12:16,054 --> 00:12:16,205:
it
1769
00:12:16,205 --> 00:12:16,414:
looks

00:12:16,414 --> 00:12:16,654:

I
1778
00:12:19,414 --> 00:12:19,894:
blinked

00:12:19,894 --> 00:12:20,014:
and
1780
00:12:20,014 --> 00:12:20,434:
followed

for
1790
00:12:22,475 --> 00:12:23,975:
myself.
1791
00:12:23,975 --> 00:12:24,725:
First,
1792
00:12:24,725 --> 00:12:24,875:
I
1793
00:12:24,875 --> 00:12:25,294:
noticed
1794
00:12:25,294 --> 00:12:25,414:

disappeared.
1809
00:12:31,774 --> 00:12:32,495:
Instead,

1823
00:12:37,595 --> 00:12:37,745:
I
1824
00:12:37,745 --> 00:12:38,075:

vanished.
1841
00:12:43,445 --> 00:12:44,225:
Then,
1842
00:12:44,225 --> 00:12:44,284:
a

Without

00:14:14,465 --> 00:14:14,705:
It’s
2052
00:14:14,705 --> 00:14:16,504:
over.”
Now
2053
00:14:16,504 --> 00:14:16,835:
back
2054
00:14:16,835 --> 00:14:17,495:
then,
2055
00:14:17,495 --> 00:14:17,825:
only
2056
00:14:17,825 --> 00:14:17,914:
the
2057
00:14:17,914 --> 00:14:18,514:
Gnostics
2058
00:14:18,514 --> 00:14:18,875:
knew of
2059
00:14:18,875 --> 00:14:19,355:
Sabaoth
2060
00:14:19,355 --> 00:14:19,631:
and
2061
00:14:19,631 --> 00:14:20,764:
the archons, and
2062
00:14:20,764 --> 00:14:20,914:
what
2063
00:14:20,914 --> 00:14:21,095:
the
2064
00:14:21,095 --> 00:14:21,304:
end
2065
00:14:21,304 --> 00:14:21,424:
of
2066
00:14:21,424 --> 00:14:21,664:
their
2067
00:14:21,664 --> 00:14:22,024:
battle
2068
00:14:22,024 --> 00:14:22,325:
meant
2069
00:14:22,325 --> 00:14:22,504:
for
2070
00:14:22,504 --> 00:14:22,654:
us
2071
00:14:22,654 --> 00:14:23,764:
all.
2072
00:14:23,764 --> 00:14:23,945:
But
2073
00:14:23,945 --> 00:14:24,034:
the
2074
00:14:24,034 --> 00:14:24,394:
gist
2075
00:14:24,394 --> 00:14:24,485:
of
2076
00:14:24,485 --> 00:14:24,605:
it
2077
00:14:24,605 --> 00:14:24,784:
was
2078
00:14:24,784 --> 00:14:25,865:
this:
2079
00:14:25,865 --> 00:14:26,044:
in
2080
00:14:26,044 --> 00:14:26,105:
the
2081
00:14:26,105 --> 00:14:26,644:
terms
2082
00:14:26,644 --> 00:14:26,735:
of
2083
00:14:26,735 --> 00:14:27,154:
Modern
2084
00:14:27,154 --> 00:14:28,325:
Gnosticism,
2085
00:14:28,325 --> 00:14:28,684:
Mark
2086
00:14:28,684 --> 00:14:28,835:
had
2087
00:14:28,835 --> 00:14:29,134:
just
2088
00:14:29,134 --> 00:14:29,495:
told
2089
00:14:29,495 --> 00:14:29,825:
me
2090
00:14:29,825 --> 00:14:30,004:
that
2091
00:14:30,004 --> 00:14:30,215:
while
2092
00:14:30,215 --> 00:14:30,394:
I
2093
00:14:30,394 --> 00:14:30,664:
was
2094
00:14:30,664 --> 00:14:30,904:
under
2095
00:14:30,904 --> 00:14:31,024:
the
2096
00:14:31,024 --> 00:14:31,654:
water,
2097
00:14:31,654 --> 00:14:31,804:
at
2098
00:14:31,804 --> 00:14:31,924:
the
2099
00:14:31,924 --> 00:14:32,434:
very
2100
00:14:32,434 --> 00:14:33,034:
moment
2101
00:14:33,034 --> 00:14:33,215:
of
2102
00:14:33,215 --> 00:14:33,394:
my
2103
00:14:33,394 --> 00:14:34,475:
baptism,
2104
00:14:34,475 --> 00:14:34,625:
the
2105
00:14:34,625 --> 00:14:35,195:
world
2106
00:14:35,195 --> 00:14:35,434:
had
2107
00:14:35,434 --> 00:14:35,794:
come
2108
00:14:35,794 --> 00:14:36,004:
to
2109
00:14:36,004 --> 00:14:36,154:
an
2110
00:14:36,154 --> 00:14:38,075:
end.
That
2111
00:14:38,075 --> 00:14:38,524:
seemed
2112
00:14:38,524 --> 00:14:40,085:
impossible—too
2113
00:14:40,085 --> 00:14:40,534:
grand
2114
00:14:40,534 --> 00:14:40,654:
and
2115
00:14:40,654 --> 00:14:41,135:
biblical
2116
00:14:41,135 --> 00:14:41,224:
an
2117
00:14:41,224 --> 00:14:41,615:
event
2118
00:14:41,615 --> 00:14:41,794:
to
2119
00:14:41,794 --> 00:14:42,065:
ever
2120
00:14:42,065 --> 00:14:42,455:
happen
2121
00:14:42,455 --> 00:14:42,575:
to
2122
00:14:42,575 --> 00:14:43,625:
us.
2123
00:14:43,625 --> 00:14:43,774:
And
2124
00:14:43,774 --> 00:14:44,014:
being
2125
00:14:44,014 --> 00:14:44,345:
turned
2126
00:14:44,345 --> 00:14:44,585:
into
2127
00:14:44,585 --> 00:14:45,004:
animal
2128
00:14:45,004 --> 00:14:45,365:
people
2129
00:14:45,365 --> 00:14:45,904:
certainly
2130
00:14:45,904 --> 00:14:46,264:
wasn’t
2131
00:14:46,264 --> 00:14:46,294:
a
2132
00:14:46,294 --> 00:14:46,654:
part
2133
00:14:46,654 --> 00:14:46,774:
of
2134
00:14:46,774 --> 00:14:46,865:
the
2135
00:14:46,865 --> 00:14:47,315:
Gnostic
2136
00:14:47,315 --> 00:14:47,884:
apocalypse
2137
00:14:47,884 --> 00:14:49,205:
story.
2138
00:14:49,205 --> 00:14:49,355:
If
2139
00:14:49,355 --> 00:14:49,504:
the
2140
00:14:49,504 --> 00:14:49,774:
end
2141
00:14:49,774 --> 00:14:49,924:
had
2142
00:14:49,924 --> 00:14:50,674:
come,
2143
00:14:50,674 --> 00:14:50,855:
we
2144
00:14:50,855 --> 00:14:51,095:
should
2145
00:14:51,095 --> 00:14:51,215:
have
2146
00:14:51,215 --> 00:14:51,634:
escaped
2147
00:14:51,634 --> 00:14:51,725:
our
2148
00:14:51,725 --> 00:14:52,174:
bodies
2149
00:14:52,174 --> 00:14:52,325:
and
2150
00:14:52,325 --> 00:14:52,745:
ascended
2151
00:14:52,745 --> 00:14:52,835:
to
2152
00:14:52,835 --> 00:14:53,554:
heaven,
2153
00:14:53,554 --> 00:14:53,764:
as
2154
00:14:53,764 --> 00:14:53,975:
was
2155
00:14:53,975 --> 00:14:55,174:
foretold.
2156
00:14:55,174 --> 00:14:55,445:
What
2157
00:14:55,445 --> 00:14:55,745:
made
2158
00:14:55,745 --> 00:14:56,075:
Mark
2159
00:14:56,075 --> 00:14:56,495:
think
2160
00:14:56,495 --> 00:14:56,855:
this
2161
00:14:56,855 --> 00:14:57,065:
was
2162
00:14:57,065 --> 00:14:57,304:
that
2163
00:14:57,304 --> 00:14:57,544:
day
2164
00:14:57,544 --> 00:14:57,664:
of
2165
00:14:57,664 --> 00:14:59,315:
judgment.
I
2166
00:14:59,315 --> 00:14:59,764:
searched
2167
00:14:59,764 --> 00:14:59,914:
for
2168
00:14:59,914 --> 00:15:00,034:
the
2169
00:15:00,034 --> 00:15:00,725:
answer,
2170
00:15:00,725 --> 00:15:01,294:
finally
2171
00:15:01,294 --> 00:15:01,684:
taking
2172
00:15:01,684 --> 00:15:01,835:
in
2173
00:15:01,835 --> 00:15:02,014:
my
2174
00:15:02,014 --> 00:15:03,245:
surroundings.
2175
00:15:03,245 --> 00:15:03,394:
To
2176
00:15:03,394 --> 00:15:03,575:
my
2177
00:15:03,575 --> 00:15:04,475:
surprise,
2178
00:15:04,475 --> 00:15:04,595:
I
2179
00:15:04,595 --> 00:15:04,985:
found
2180
00:15:04,985 --> 00:15:05,375:
myself
2181
00:15:05,375 --> 00:15:05,914:
exploring
2182
00:15:05,914 --> 00:15:06,125:
not
2183
00:15:06,125 --> 00:15:06,304:
with
2184
00:15:06,304 --> 00:15:07,054:
sight,
2185
00:15:07,054 --> 00:15:07,235:
but
2186
00:15:07,235 --> 00:15:07,384:
with
2187
00:15:07,384 --> 00:15:08,735:
smell.
2188
00:15:08,735 --> 00:15:08,855:
I
2189
00:15:08,855 --> 00:15:09,394:
closed
2190
00:15:09,394 --> 00:15:09,575:
my
2191
00:15:09,575 --> 00:15:09,875:
eyes
2192
00:15:09,875 --> 00:15:09,965:
and
2193
00:15:09,965 --> 00:15:10,475:
inhaled
2194
00:15:10,475 --> 00:15:10,654:
through
2195
00:15:10,654 --> 00:15:10,835:
my
2196
00:15:10,835 --> 00:15:11,855:
nose;
2197
00:15:11,855 --> 00:15:11,975:
it
2198
00:15:11,975 --> 00:15:12,184:
was
2199
00:15:12,184 --> 00:15:12,754:
suddenly
2200
00:15:12,754 --> 00:15:12,934:
as
2201
00:15:12,934 --> 00:15:13,085:
if
2202
00:15:13,085 --> 00:15:13,205:
the
2203
00:15:13,205 --> 00:15:13,715:
church
2204
00:15:13,715 --> 00:15:14,044:
Mark
2205
00:15:14,044 --> 00:15:14,195:
and
2206
00:15:14,195 --> 00:15:14,404:
I
2207
00:15:14,404 --> 00:15:14,524:
had
2208
00:15:14,524 --> 00:15:14,855:
grown
2209
00:15:14,855 --> 00:15:15,004:
up
2210
00:15:15,004 --> 00:15:15,934:
attending
2211
00:15:15,934 --> 00:15:16,205:
was
2212
00:15:16,205 --> 00:15:16,654:
coated
2213
00:15:16,654 --> 00:15:16,804:
in
2214
00:15:16,804 --> 00:15:17,315:
colors
2215
00:15:17,315 --> 00:15:17,434:
I
2216
00:15:17,434 --> 00:15:17,615:
had
2217
00:15:17,615 --> 00:15:18,129:
never
2218
00:15:18,129 --> 00:15:19,235:
seen.
2219
00:15:19,235 --> 00:15:19,384:
The
2220
00:15:19,384 --> 00:15:19,715:
woody
2221
00:15:19,715 --> 00:15:20,164:
aroma
2222
00:15:20,164 --> 00:15:20,284:
of
2223
00:15:20,284 --> 00:15:20,404:
the
2224
00:15:20,404 --> 00:15:21,394:
pews,
2225
00:15:21,394 --> 00:15:21,514:
the

00:15:22,024 --> 00:15:22,804:
freshness
2228
00:15:22,804 --> 00:15:22,894:
of
2229
00:15:22,894 --> 00:15:22,985:
the

00:15:23,615 --> 00:15:24,634:
waters,
2232
00:15:24,634 --> 00:15:24,875:
and
2233
00:15:24,875 --> 00:15:25,144:
even
2234
00:15:25,144 --> 00:15:25,235:
the
2235
00:15:25,235 --> 00:15:25,684:
smell
2236
00:15:25,684 --> 00:15:25,835:
of
2237
00:15:25,835 --> 00:15:26,225:
wine
2238
00:15:26,225 --> 00:15:26,345:

00:15:26,345 --> 00:15:26,465:
the

00:15:26,465 --> 00:15:26,914:
altar
2241
00:15:26,914 --> 00:15:27,365:
whirled
2242
00:15:27,365 --> 00:15:27,725:
around
2243
00:15:27,725 --> 00:15:28,865:
me.
2244
00:15:28,865 --> 00:15:29,644:
Strongest
2245
00:15:29,644 --> 00:15:29,735:
and
2246
00:15:29,735 --> 00:15:30,304:
sweetest
2247
00:15:30,304 --> 00:15:30,424:

2248
00:15:30,424 --> 00:15:30,514:
the

2250
00:15:30,934 --> 00:15:31,024:
of

00:15:31,024 --> 00:15:31,115:
the

2254
00:15:31,955 --> 00:15:32,794:
dragon
2255
00:15:32,794 --> 00:15:33,365:
patiently
2256
00:15:33,365 --> 00:15:34,565:
watching.
2257
00:15:34,565 --> 00:15:34,715:
I
2258
00:15:34,715 --> 00:15:34,955:
let
2259
00:15:34,955 --> 00:15:35,375:
those
2260
00:15:35,375 --> 00:15:35,554:
in
2261
00:15:35,554 --> 00:15:36,394:
deep,
2262
00:15:36,394 --> 00:15:36,514:
the
2263
00:15:36,514 --> 00:15:36,875:
scent
2264
00:15:36,875 --> 00:15:36,965:
of
2265
00:15:36,965 --> 00:15:37,115:
my
2266
00:15:37,115 --> 00:15:37,595:
mates
2267
00:15:37,595 --> 00:15:38,105:
flooding
2268
00:15:38,105 --> 00:15:38,375:
into
2269
00:15:38,375 --> 00:15:38,554:
my
2270
00:15:38,554 --> 00:15:39,304:
memory,
2271
00:15:39,304 --> 00:15:39,815:
sparking
2272
00:15:39,815 --> 00:15:40,384:
feelings
2273
00:15:40,384 --> 00:15:40,534:
of
2274
00:15:40,534 --> 00:15:41,195:
love
2275
00:15:41,195 --> 00:15:41,345:
and
2276
00:15:41,345 --> 00:15:42,875:
safety.
I
2277
00:15:42,875 --> 00:15:43,054:
could
2278
00:15:43,054 --> 00:15:43,384:
smell
2279
00:15:43,384 --> 00:15:43,534:
the
2280
00:15:43,534 --> 00:15:43,865:
others
2281
00:15:43,865 --> 00:15:43,955:
in
2282
00:15:43,955 --> 00:15:44,044:
the
2283
00:15:44,044 --> 00:15:44,434:
church
2284
00:15:44,434 --> 00:15:45,365:
too,
2285
00:15:45,365 --> 00:15:45,544:
but
2286
00:15:45,544 --> 00:15:45,965:
something
2287
00:15:45,965 --> 00:15:46,144:
was
2288
00:15:46,144 --> 00:15:46,835:
strange
2289
00:15:46,835 --> 00:15:47,105:
about
2290
00:15:47,105 --> 00:15:47,345:
those
2291
00:15:47,345 --> 00:15:48,394:
scents;
2292
00:15:48,394 --> 00:15:48,544:
they
2293
00:15:48,544 --> 00:15:48,904:
lacked
2294
00:15:48,904 --> 00:15:48,995:
the
2295
00:15:48,995 --> 00:15:49,715:
solidity
2296
00:15:49,715 --> 00:15:49,865:
of
2297
00:15:49,865 --> 00:15:50,225:
Mark
2298
00:15:50,225 --> 00:15:50,345:
and
2299
00:15:50,345 --> 00:15:51,424:
Seth’s.
2300
00:15:51,424 --> 00:15:51,575:
They
2301
00:15:51,575 --> 00:15:51,754:
were
2302
00:15:51,754 --> 00:15:52,654:
weak.
2303
00:15:52,654 --> 00:15:53,764:
Ethereal.
2304
00:15:53,764 --> 00:15:54,004:
Like
2305
00:15:54,004 --> 00:15:54,664:
flowers
2306
00:15:54,664 --> 00:15:54,965:
blown
2307
00:15:54,965 --> 00:15:55,205:
away
2308
00:15:55,205 --> 00:15:55,384:
by
2309
00:15:55,384 --> 00:15:55,475:
the
2310
00:15:55,475 --> 00:15:56,195:
wind,
2311
00:15:56,195 --> 00:15:56,554:
leaving
2312
00:15:56,554 --> 00:15:56,884:
only
2313
00:15:56,884 --> 00:15:57,394:
pollen
2314
00:15:57,394 --> 00:15:58,745:
behind.
2315
00:15:58,745 --> 00:15:58,924:
I
2316
00:15:58,924 --> 00:15:59,254:
opened
2317
00:15:59,254 --> 00:15:59,434:
my
2318
00:15:59,434 --> 00:15:59,764:
eyes
2319
00:15:59,764 --> 00:16:00,034:
once
2320
00:16:00,034 --> 00:16:00,394:
more
2321
00:16:00,394 --> 00:16:00,544:
and
2322
00:16:00,544 --> 00:16:01,085:
quickly
2323
00:16:01,085 --> 00:16:01,445:
learned
2324
00:16:01,445 --> 00:16:03,004:
why.
They
2325
00:16:03,004 --> 00:16:03,154:
were
2326
00:16:03,154 --> 00:16:04,684:
gone.
In
2327
00:16:04,684 --> 00:16:05,105:
place
2328
00:16:05,105 --> 00:16:05,195:
of
2329
00:16:05,195 --> 00:16:05,284:
the
2330
00:16:05,284 --> 00:16:05,644:
church
2331
00:16:05,644 --> 00:16:06,754:
congregation,
2332
00:16:06,754 --> 00:16:07,534:
vestments,
2333
00:16:07,534 --> 00:16:08,044:
robes,
2334
00:16:08,044 --> 00:16:08,195:
and
2335
00:16:08,195 --> 00:16:08,735:
dresses
2336
00:16:08,735 --> 00:16:08,945:
lay
2337
00:16:08,945 --> 00:16:09,575:
scattered
2338
00:16:09,575 --> 00:16:09,965:
across
2339
00:16:09,965 --> 00:16:10,054:
the
2340
00:16:10,054 --> 00:16:10,894:
floor,
2341
00:16:10,894 --> 00:16:11,375:
peppered
2342
00:16:11,375 --> 00:16:11,554:
with
2343
00:16:11,554 --> 00:16:12,245:
jewelry,
2344
00:16:12,245 --> 00:16:12,815:

00:16:12,815 --> 00:16:13,355:
wallets,
2346
00:16:13,355 --> 00:16:13,475:
and
2347
00:16:13,475 --> 00:16:14,495:
keys.
2348
00:16:14,495 --> 00:16:14,644:
The
2349
00:16:14,644 --> 00:16:15,125:
priest’s
2350
00:16:15,125 --> 00:16:15,605:
robes
2351
00:16:15,605 --> 00:16:16,144:
floated
2352
00:16:16,144 --> 00:16:16,264:
in
2353
00:16:16,264 --> 00:16:16,355:
the
2354
00:16:16,355 --> 00:16:17,105:
baptismal,
2355
00:16:17,105 --> 00:16:17,284:
where
2356
00:16:17,284 --> 00:16:17,375:
the
2357
00:16:17,375 --> 00:16:17,674:
man
2358
00:16:17,674 --> 00:16:17,855:
had
2359
00:16:17,855 --> 00:16:18,605:
disappeared
2360
00:16:18,605 --> 00:16:19,745:
mid-rite.
2361
00:16:19,745 --> 00:16:19,865:
I
2362
00:16:19,865 --> 00:16:20,404:
searched
2363
00:16:20,404 --> 00:16:21,274:
desperately,
2364
00:16:21,274 --> 00:16:21,455:
but
2365
00:16:21,455 --> 00:16:21,725:
didn’t
2366
00:16:21,725 --> 00:16:22,024:
find
2367
00:16:22,024 --> 00:16:22,414:
anyone
2368
00:16:22,414 --> 00:16:22,504:
in
2369
00:16:22,504 --> 00:16:22,595:
the
2370
00:16:22,595 --> 00:16:23,014:
church
2371
00:16:23,014 --> 00:16:23,434:
except
2372
00:16:23,434 --> 00:16:23,825:
Mark,
2373
00:16:23,825 --> 00:16:24,274:
Seth,
2374
00:16:24,274 --> 00:16:24,394:
and
2375
00:16:24,394 --> 00:16:26,434:
myself.
Every
2376
00:16:26,434 --> 00:16:27,034:
Christian
2377
00:16:27,034 --> 00:16:27,184:
of
2378
00:16:27,184 --> 00:16:27,544:
certain

2380
00:16:28,384 --> 00:16:28,654:
knew
2381
00:16:28,654 --> 00:16:28,835:
this
2382
00:16:28,835 --> 00:16:29,975:
sign,
2383
00:16:29,975 --> 00:16:30,245:
whether
2384
00:16:30,245 --> 00:16:30,514:

00:16:32,855 --> 00:16:33,034:
or
2392
00:16:33,034 --> 00:16:33,215:
from

apocalyptic

00:16:34,565 --> 00:16:34,894:
told

00:16:34,894 --> 00:16:35,075:
by
2397
00:16:35,075 --> 00:16:35,585:
parents
2398
00:16:35,585 --> 00:16:35,705:
to
2399
00:16:35,705 --> 00:16:36,065:
scare
2400
00:16:36,065 --> 00:16:36,245:
their

00:16:36,245 --> 00:16:36,544:
kids
2402
00:16:36,544 --> 00:16:37,774:
straight.
2403
00:16:37,774 --> 00:16:38,164:
Few
2404
00:16:38,164 --> 00:16:38,645:
children
2405
00:16:38,645 --> 00:16:38,805:

00:16:38,805 --> 00:16:39,274:
avoided
2407
00:16:39,274 --> 00:16:39,605:
having

00:16:39,605 --> 00:16:39,695:
the

00:16:39,695 --> 00:16:40,325:
nightmare
2410
00:16:40,325 --> 00:16:40,445:
of
2411
00:16:40,445 --> 00:16:40,684:
being
2412
00:16:40,684 --> 00:16:40,985:
left

the
2416
00:16:41,615 --> 00:16:42,725:
aftermath,
2417
00:16:42,725 --> 00:16:43,085:
doomed
2418
00:16:43,085 --> 00:16:43,205:
to
2419
00:16:43,205 --> 00:16:43,595:
wander
2420
00:16:43,595 --> 00:16:43,684:
the

world
2422
00:16:44,075 --> 00:16:44,284:
and
2423
00:16:44,284 --> 00:16:44,674:
burn
2424
00:16:44,674 --> 00:16:44,794:
in
2425
00:16:44,794 --> 00:16:45,215:
whatever
2426
00:16:45,215 --> 00:16:45,664:
sins
2427
00:16:45,664 --> 00:16:45,875:
had
2428
00:16:45,875 --> 00:16:46,144:
earned
2429
00:16:46,144 --> 00:16:46,355:
them
2430
00:16:46,355 --> 00:16:46,715:
God’s
2431
00:16:46,715 --> 00:16:51,904:
abandonment.
Rapture.
“Wait,
2432
00:16:51,904 --> 00:16:52,985:
no,”
2433
00:16:52,985 --> 00:16:53,105:
I
2434
00:16:53,105 --> 00:16:53,945:
said,
2435
00:16:53,945 --> 00:16:54,154:
my
2436
00:16:54,154 --> 00:16:54,514:
voice
2437
00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:55,085:
strained
2438
00:16:55,085 --> 00:16:55,205:
as
2439
00:16:55,205 --> 00:16:55,355:
if
2440
00:16:55,355 --> 00:16:55,745:
waking

up
2442
00:16:55,894 --> 00:16:56,105:
from
2443
00:16:56,105 --> 00:16:57,754:
sleep. “That’s
2444
00:16:57,754 --> 00:16:59,404:
impossible.”
2445
00:16:59,404 --> 00:16:59,554:
I
2446
00:16:59,554 --> 00:16:59,884:
tried

00:16:59,884 --> 00:16:59,975:

00:17:00,394 --> 00:17:00,995:

to

00:17:01,715 --> 00:17:02,134:
chase
2455
00:17:02,134 --> 00:17:02,434:
after

the

souls
2458
00:17:02,975 --> 00:17:03,125:
that
2459
00:17:03,125 --> 00:17:03,215:
had
2460
00:17:03,215 --> 00:17:03,695:
departed
2461
00:17:03,695 --> 00:17:04,055:
without
2462
00:17:04,055 --> 00:17:04,714:
me,
2463
00:17:04,714 --> 00:17:04,865:
but
2464
00:17:04,865 --> 00:17:04,954:
I
2465
00:17:04,954 --> 00:17:05,285:
lost
2466
00:17:05,285 --> 00:17:05,404:
my

2468
00:17:06,515 --> 00:17:07,055:
expecting
2469
00:17:07,055 --> 00:17:07,144:

paws.
Seth,
2477
00:17:11,375 --> 00:17:11,615:
with
2478
00:17:11,615 --> 00:17:12,154:
newfound
2479
00:17:12,154 --> 00:17:12,845:

2480
00:17:12,845 --> 00:17:13,295:
saved
2481
00:17:13,295 --> 00:17:13,444:
me
2482
00:17:13,444 --> 00:17:13,654:
from
2483
00:17:13,654 --> 00:17:14,075:
falling
2484
00:17:14,075 --> 00:17:14,224:
into
2485
00:17:14,224 --> 00:17:14,315:
the

baptismal.
2487
00:17:15,484 --> 00:17:15,694:
He
2488
00:17:15,694 --> 00:17:16,055:
asked
2489
00:17:16,055 --> 00:17:16,174:
if
2490
00:17:16,174 --> 00:17:16,265:
I
2491
00:17:16,265 --> 00:17:16,474:
was
2492
00:17:16,474 --> 00:17:17,164:
alright,
2493
00:17:17,164 --> 00:17:17,345:
but
2494
00:17:17,345 --> 00:17:17,434:
I
2495
00:17:17,434 --> 00:17:17,914:
hardly
2496
00:17:17,914 --> 00:17:18,214:
heard
2497
00:17:18,214 --> 00:17:18,724:
him,
2498
00:17:18,724 --> 00:17:19,025:
because
2499
00:17:19,025 --> 00:17:19,144:
the
2500
00:17:19,144 --> 00:17:19,565:

2501
00:17:19,565 --> 00:17:19,684:

me,
2510
00:17:22,325 --> 00:17:23,164:
squeezing
2511
00:17:23,164 --> 00:17:23,464:
out
2512
00:17:23,464 --> 00:17:23,884:
every

00:17:24,875 --> 00:17:24,964:
I
2517
00:17:24,964 --> 00:17:25,325:
had
2518
00:17:25,325 --> 00:17:25,565:

wolf,
2523
00:17:27,365 --> 00:17:27,934:
forming

2530
00:17:29,825 --> 00:17:30,065:
where
2531
00:17:30,065 --> 00:17:30,515:
fear

00:17:30,515 --> 00:17:30,994:
crawled
2533
00:17:30,994 --> 00:17:31,325:
in
2534
00:17:31,325 --> 00:17:31,505:
and
2535
00:17:31,505 --> 00:17:31,894:
took
2536
00:17:31,894 --> 00:17:33,214:
root.
2537
00:17:33,214 --> 00:17:33,394:
My

2539
00:17:33,904 --> 00:17:34,444:
trembled
2540
00:17:34,444 --> 00:17:34,565:

2541
00:17:34,565 --> 00:17:34,684:
I
2542
00:17:34,684 --> 00:17:35,134:
clutched
2543
00:17:35,134 --> 00:17:35,255:
my

00:17:35,255 --> 00:17:35,944:
scalp,
2545
00:17:35,944 --> 00:17:36,454:
crushing
2546
00:17:36,454 --> 00:17:36,694:

“We…

00:17:40,115 --> 00:17:40,295:
we
2551
00:17:40,295 --> 00:17:40,535:

But…

00:17:43,295 --> 00:17:43,474:

Nausea
2558
00:17:45,875 --> 00:17:46,295:
gripped
2559
00:17:46,295 --> 00:17:46,444:

I

00:17:53,345 --> 00:17:53,795:
thought
2579
00:17:53,795 --> 00:17:53,944:
I
2580
00:17:53,944 --> 00:17:54,095:

their

00:17:56,375 --> 00:17:58,444:
restraints.
You
2588
00:17:58,444 --> 00:17:58,924:
will
2589
00:17:58,924 --> 00:17:59,644:
burn

you

00:18:00,005 --> 00:18:00,365:
don’t

You

are
2595
00:18:02,434 --> 00:18:03,214:

Only

those

of
2610
00:18:09,424 --> 00:18:12,125:
God.
The

my

2617
00:18:14,585 --> 00:18:15,214:
snaking
2618
00:18:15,214 --> 00:18:15,394:

and
2622
00:18:16,085 --> 00:18:16,444:
taking

00:18:16,444 --> 00:18:16,894:
hold
2624
00:18:16,894 --> 00:18:17,224:
once

00:18:17,224 --> 00:18:19,295:
more.
“No,

I’m

I

“Petra,”

2644
00:18:27,125 --> 00:18:28,115:
Seth. “What

I

00:18:33,335 --> 00:18:35,015:
us?”
You
2659
00:18:35,015 --> 00:18:35,194:
have
2660
00:18:35,194 --> 00:18:36,005:
succumbed
2661
00:18:36,005 --> 00:18:36,275:
to
2662
00:18:36,275 --> 00:18:37,714:
evil.
You
2663
00:18:37,714 --> 00:18:37,984:
will
2664
00:18:37,984 --> 00:18:38,194:
be
2665
00:18:38,194 --> 00:18:40,174:
abandoned.
You
2666
00:18:40,174 --> 00:18:40,505:
are
2667
00:18:40,505 --> 00:18:43,085:
wrong.
Mark
2668
00:18:43,085 --> 00:18:43,714:
approached
2669
00:18:43,714 --> 00:18:43,835:
and
2670
00:18:43,835 --> 00:18:44,015:
put
2671
00:18:44,015 --> 00:18:44,164:
his
2672
00:18:44,164 --> 00:18:44,494:
hands
2673
00:18:44,494 --> 00:18:44,585:
on
2674
00:18:44,585 --> 00:18:44,644:
the
2675
00:18:44,644 --> 00:18:44,914:
sides
2676
00:18:44,914 --> 00:18:44,974:
of
2677
00:18:44,974 --> 00:18:45,125:
my
2678
00:18:45,125 --> 00:18:45,934:
face,
2679
00:18:45,934 --> 00:18:46,325:
pressing
2680
00:18:46,325 --> 00:18:46,474:
his
2681
00:18:46,474 --> 00:18:46,835:
snout
2682
00:18:46,835 --> 00:18:47,224:
against
2683
00:18:47,224 --> 00:18:48,605:
mine. “Don’t
2684
00:18:48,605 --> 00:18:48,875:
you
2685
00:18:48,875 --> 00:18:49,565:
dare,”
2686
00:18:49,565 --> 00:18:49,714:
he
2687
00:18:49,714 --> 00:18:50,615:
said. “This
2688
00:18:50,615 --> 00:18:50,974:
isn’t
2689
00:18:50,974 --> 00:18:51,244:
your
2690
00:18:51,244 --> 00:18:51,724:
fault.
2691
00:18:51,724 --> 00:18:51,934:
You
2692
00:18:51,934 --> 00:18:52,295:
have
2693
00:18:52,295 --> 00:18:52,444:
to
2694
00:18:52,444 --> 00:18:52,654:
know
2695
00:18:52,654 --> 00:18:54,065:
that.”
But
2696
00:18:54,065 --> 00:18:54,154:
I
2697
00:18:54,154 --> 00:18:54,515:
didn’t
2698
00:18:54,515 --> 00:18:55,204:
know.
2699
00:18:55,204 --> 00:18:55,565:
Not
2700
00:18:55,565 --> 00:18:56,825:
anymore.
2701
00:18:56,825 --> 00:18:57,005:
I
2702
00:18:57,005 --> 00:18:57,275:
looked
2703
00:18:57,275 --> 00:18:57,575:
down
2704
00:18:57,575 --> 00:18:57,634:
at
2705
00:18:57,634 --> 00:18:57,785:
my
2706
00:18:57,785 --> 00:18:58,234:
parents’
2707
00:18:58,234 --> 00:18:59,105:
fallen clothes
2708
00:18:59,105 --> 00:18:59,255:
and
2709
00:18:59,255 --> 00:18:59,765:
remembered
2710
00:18:59,765 --> 00:18:59,944:
them
2711
00:18:59,944 --> 00:19:00,305:
telling
2712
00:19:00,305 --> 00:19:00,454:
me
2713
00:19:00,454 --> 00:19:00,664:
this
2714
00:19:00,664 --> 00:19:00,785:
would
2715
00:19:00,785 --> 00:19:01,505:
happen,
2716
00:19:01,505 --> 00:19:02,164:
screaming
2717
00:19:02,164 --> 00:19:02,315:
at
2718
00:19:02,315 --> 00:19:02,555:
me
2719
00:19:02,555 --> 00:19:02,644:
for
2720
00:19:02,644 --> 00:19:02,734:
the
2721
00:19:02,734 --> 00:19:03,184:
crime
2722
00:19:03,184 --> 00:19:03,305:
that
2723
00:19:03,305 --> 00:19:03,454:
had
2724
00:19:03,454 --> 00:19:03,694:
now
2725
00:19:03,694 --> 00:19:04,444:
manifested
2726
00:19:04,444 --> 00:19:04,865:
between
2727
00:19:04,865 --> 00:19:05,015:
my
2728
00:19:05,015 --> 00:19:06,904:
legs.
Seth
2729
00:19:06,904 --> 00:19:07,265:
hugged
2730
00:19:07,265 --> 00:19:07,384:
me
2731
00:19:07,384 --> 00:19:07,595:
from
2732
00:19:07,595 --> 00:19:08,105:
behind
2733
00:19:08,105 --> 00:19:08,255:
while
2734
00:19:08,255 --> 00:19:08,615:
Mark
2735
00:19:08,615 --> 00:19:08,914:
held
2736
00:19:08,914 --> 00:19:09,035:
me
2737
00:19:09,035 --> 00:19:09,244:
from
2738
00:19:09,244 --> 00:19:09,335:
the
2739
00:19:09,335 --> 00:19:10,355:
front.
2740
00:19:10,355 --> 00:19:10,474:
The
2741
00:19:10,474 --> 00:19:11,015:
dragon’s
2742
00:19:11,015 --> 00:19:11,434:
wings
2743
00:19:11,434 --> 00:19:11,855:
fanned
2744
00:19:11,855 --> 00:19:12,125:
out
2745
00:19:12,125 --> 00:19:12,244:
and
2746
00:19:12,244 --> 00:19:12,634:
wrapped
2747
00:19:12,634 --> 00:19:12,994:
around
2748
00:19:12,994 --> 00:19:13,505:
us,
2749
00:19:13,505 --> 00:19:14,015:
shutting
2750
00:19:14,015 --> 00:19:14,224:
out
2751
00:19:14,224 --> 00:19:14,315:
the
2752
00:19:14,315 --> 00:19:16,924:
church.
“Shhh,”
2753
00:19:16,924 --> 00:19:17,255:
Mark
2754
00:19:17,255 --> 00:19:18,275:
hushed. “You’re
2755
00:19:18,275 --> 00:19:18,694:
safe,
2756
00:19:18,694 --> 00:19:19,535:
hun.
2757
00:19:19,535 --> 00:19:20,134:
Please
2758
00:19:20,134 --> 00:19:20,404:
don’t
2759
00:19:20,404 --> 00:19:21,154:
worry.
2760
00:19:21,154 --> 00:19:21,424:
There’s
2761
00:19:21,424 --> 00:19:21,694:
more
2762
00:19:21,694 --> 00:19:21,815:
to
2763
00:19:21,815 --> 00:19:22,085:
this
2764
00:19:22,085 --> 00:19:22,234:
than
2765
00:19:22,234 --> 00:19:22,384:
you
2766
00:19:22,384 --> 00:19:23,644:
know.”
2767
00:19:23,644 --> 00:19:23,795:
He
2768
00:19:23,795 --> 00:19:24,125:
looked
2769
00:19:24,125 --> 00:19:24,275:
up
2770
00:19:24,275 --> 00:19:24,365:
at
2771
00:19:24,365 --> 00:19:25,505:
Seth. “Can
2772
00:19:25,505 --> 00:19:25,714:
you
2773
00:19:25,714 --> 00:19:25,865:
get
2774
00:19:25,865 --> 00:19:26,015:
his
2775
00:19:26,015 --> 00:19:26,884:
clothes?
2776
00:19:26,884 --> 00:19:27,035:
We
2777
00:19:27,035 --> 00:19:27,214:
should
2778
00:19:27,214 --> 00:19:27,394:
get
2779
00:19:27,394 --> 00:19:27,575:
out
2780
00:19:27,575 --> 00:19:27,664:
of
2781
00:19:27,664 --> 00:19:27,845:
here
2782
00:19:27,845 --> 00:19:28,174:
before
2783
00:19:28,174 --> 00:19:30,365:
sundown.”
“No,”
2784
00:19:30,365 --> 00:19:30,484:
I
2785
00:19:30,484 --> 00:19:31,085:
said,
2786
00:19:31,085 --> 00:19:31,565:
shrugging
2787
00:19:31,565 --> 00:19:31,714:
them
2788
00:19:31,714 --> 00:19:32,015:
both
2789
00:19:32,015 --> 00:19:33,125:
off. “We
2790
00:19:33,125 --> 00:19:33,394:
need
2791
00:19:33,394 --> 00:19:33,484:
to
2792
00:19:33,484 --> 00:19:34,444:
stay.
2793
00:19:34,444 --> 00:19:34,835:
Maybe
2794
00:19:34,835 --> 00:19:34,954:
if
2795
00:19:34,954 --> 00:19:35,075:
we
2796
00:19:35,075 --> 00:19:35,674:
just
2797
00:19:35,674 --> 00:19:36,005:
pray
2798
00:19:36,005 --> 00:19:36,095:
to
2799
00:19:36,095 --> 00:19:36,875:
him.
2800
00:19:36,875 --> 00:19:37,115:
This
2801
00:19:37,115 --> 00:19:37,204:
is
2802
00:19:37,204 --> 00:19:37,295:
the
2803
00:19:37,295 --> 00:19:37,565:
house
2804
00:19:37,565 --> 00:19:37,684:
of
2805
00:19:37,684 --> 00:19:38,345:
God.
2806
00:19:38,345 --> 00:19:38,555:
He’ll
2807
00:19:38,555 --> 00:19:38,795:
have
2808
00:19:38,795 --> 00:19:38,884:
to
2809
00:19:38,884 --> 00:19:39,154:
hear
2810
00:19:39,154 --> 00:19:39,335:
us,
2811
00:19:39,335 --> 00:19:39,575:
won’t
2812
00:19:39,575 --> 00:19:41,404:
he?”
Mark’s slitted
2813
00:19:41,404 --> 00:19:41,765:
eyes
2814
00:19:41,765 --> 00:19:42,095:
locked
2815
00:19:42,095 --> 00:19:42,244:
with
2816
00:19:42,244 --> 00:19:42,904:
mine,
2817
00:19:42,904 --> 00:19:43,505:
staring

with
2819
00:19:43,654 --> 00:19:43,865:
that
2820
00:19:43,865 --> 00:19:44,255:
knowing

2822
00:19:45,005 --> 00:19:45,184:
as
2823
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:45,305:

2824
00:19:45,305 --> 00:19:45,815:
peering

right
2826
00:19:46,174 --> 00:19:46,444:
into
2827
00:19:46,444 --> 00:19:46,595:
my

soul.
2829
00:19:47,795 --> 00:19:47,944:
He
2830
00:19:47,944 --> 00:19:48,335:
placed
2831
00:19:48,335 --> 00:19:48,484:
his

00:19:48,484 --> 00:19:48,845:
hands
2833
00:19:48,845 --> 00:19:48,964:
on
2834
00:19:48,964 --> 00:19:49,085:
my
2835
00:19:49,085 --> 00:19:50,795:
shoulders. “Look,
2836
00:19:50,795 --> 00:19:51,035:
we’ve
2837
00:19:51,035 --> 00:19:51,184:
been

00:19:51,184 --> 00:19:51,545:
awake

00:19:51,545 --> 00:19:51,904:
longer

00:19:52,085 --> 00:19:52,625:
you.
2842
00:19:52,625 --> 00:19:52,954:
Just
2843
00:19:52,954 --> 00:19:54,454:
listen.”
I
2844
00:19:54,454 --> 00:19:54,755:
kept

00:19:55,865 --> 00:19:56,255:
hadn’t
2850
00:19:56,255 --> 00:19:57,305:
heard. “There

has
2852
00:19:57,605 --> 00:19:57,694:

something

we

00:21:31,579 --> 00:21:31,670:
at
3063
00:21:31,670 --> 00:21:31,849:
each
3064
00:21:31,849 --> 00:21:32,630:
other.
3065
00:21:32,630 --> 00:21:32,779:
I
3066
00:21:32,779 --> 00:21:33,200:
watched
3067
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:33,289:
as
3068
00:21:33,289 --> 00:21:33,440:
their
3069
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:34,099:
confusion
3070
00:21:34,099 --> 00:21:34,430:
turned
3071
00:21:34,430 --> 00:21:34,519:
to
3072
00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:35,690:
concern.
3073
00:21:35,690 --> 00:21:35,900:
Had
3074
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:35,990:

00:21:37,430 --> 00:21:37,579:
than
3081
00:21:37,579 --> 00:21:38,599:
me?
3082
00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:38,809:
Through
3083
00:21:38,809 --> 00:21:38,990:
my
3084
00:21:38,990 --> 00:21:39,619:
fear,
3085
00:21:39,619 --> 00:21:39,740:
I
3086
00:21:39,740 --> 00:21:40,190:
struggled
3087
00:21:40,190 --> 00:21:40,279:
to
3088
00:21:40,279 --> 00:21:40,519:

vision

00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:41,900:
could
3095
00:21:41,900 --> 00:21:42,440:
possibly

00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,210:
mean.
Whatever
3097
00:21:44,210 --> 00:21:44,390:

3098
00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:45,470:
concern,
3099
00:21:45,470 --> 00:21:45,650:
Mark
3100
00:21:45,650 --> 00:21:45,920:
didn’t
3101
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:46,099:
give
3102
00:21:46,099 --> 00:21:46,250:
me
3103
00:21:46,250 --> 00:21:46,369:
an
3104
00:21:46,369 --> 00:21:47,299:
answer.
3105
00:21:47,299 --> 00:21:47,509:
He
3106
00:21:47,509 --> 00:21:47,869:
nodded
3107
00:21:47,869 --> 00:21:48,140:
toward
3108
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:48,230:

3111
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,480:
instead. “Will

00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:50,630:
you
3113
00:21:50,630 --> 00:21:50,900:

00:21:51,079 --> 00:21:51,259:
us
3116
00:21:51,259 --> 00:21:52,069:
then?
3117
00:21:52,069 --> 00:21:52,220:
We
3118
00:21:52,220 --> 00:21:52,400:
should
3119
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:52,609:
go
3120
00:21:52,609 --> 00:21:52,789:
there
3121
00:21:52,789 --> 00:21:53,359:
together,
3122
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:53,599:
like
3123
00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:53,690:
the

00:21:53,690 --> 00:21:54,019:
vision

There

No
3131
00:21:57,829 --> 00:21:58,940:

3132
00:21:58,940 --> 00:21:59,240:
Just
3133
00:21:59,240 --> 00:21:59,299:
a

I
3137
00:22:01,789 --> 00:22:02,119:
thought
3138
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:02,210:
I
3139
00:22:02,210 --> 00:22:02,450:
knew

00:22:02,450 --> 00:22:02,630:
what
3141
00:22:02,630 --> 00:22:02,750:
I
3142
00:22:02,750 --> 00:22:03,049:

3264
00:22:45,829 --> 00:22:46,009:
them
3265
00:22:46,009 --> 00:22:46,430:
both
3266
00:22:46,430 --> 00:22:46,640:
made
3267
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:46,789:

3273
00:22:48,380 --> 00:22:49,430:
wag.
3274
00:22:49,430 --> 00:22:49,579:
They
3275
00:22:49,579 --> 00:22:50,119:
flirted
3276
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:50,210:
and
3277
00:22:50,210 --> 00:22:50,630:
teased
3278
00:22:50,630 --> 00:22:50,809:
each
3279
00:22:50,809 --> 00:22:51,049:

00:22:51,049 --> 00:22:51,200:
as
3281
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:51,319:
we
3282
00:22:51,319 --> 00:22:51,829:
prepared
3283
00:22:51,829 --> 00:22:51,920:
to
3284
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:52,579:
leave,
3285
00:22:52,579 --> 00:22:52,759:
and
3286
00:22:52,759 --> 00:22:52,819:
I
3287
00:22:52,819 --> 00:22:53,210:
wanted
3288
00:22:53,210 --> 00:22:53,569:
so
3289
00:22:53,569 --> 00:22:54,079:
badly
3290
00:22:54,079 --> 00:22:54,230:
to
3291
00:22:54,230 --> 00:22:54,589:
join
3292
00:22:54,589 --> 00:22:54,859:
them
3293
00:22:54,859 --> 00:22:55,069:
like
3294
00:22:55,069 --> 00:22:55,160:
I
3295
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:55,640:
usually
3296
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:56,750:
would,
3297
00:22:56,750 --> 00:22:56,990:
but
3298
00:22:56,990 --> 00:22:57,289:
every
3299
00:22:57,289 --> 00:22:57,589:
time
3300
00:22:57,589 --> 00:22:57,710:
I
3301
00:22:57,710 --> 00:22:58,009:
willed
3302
00:22:58,009 --> 00:22:58,430:
myself
3303
00:22:58,430 --> 00:22:58,519:
to
3304
00:22:58,519 --> 00:22:59,240:
try,
3305
00:22:59,240 --> 00:22:59,359:
a
3306
00:22:59,359 --> 00:22:59,839:
priest’s
3307
00:22:59,839 --> 00:23:00,319:
words
3308
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:00,650:
echoed
3309
00:23:00,650 --> 00:23:00,769:
in
3310
00:23:00,769 --> 00:23:00,920:
my
3311
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,569:
head.
Don’t
3312
00:23:02,569 --> 00:23:02,869:
give
3313
00:23:02,869 --> 00:23:03,440:
in to
3314
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,839:
temptation.
Temptation
3315
00:23:05,839 --> 00:23:06,109:
is
3316
00:23:06,109 --> 00:23:06,375:
their
3317
00:23:06,375 --> 00:23:08,150:
chain.
And
3318
00:23:08,150 --> 00:23:08,990:
so,
3319
00:23:08,990 --> 00:23:09,170:
I
3320
00:23:09,170 --> 00:23:09,589:
forced
3321
00:23:09,589 --> 00:23:09,829:
those
3322
00:23:09,829 --> 00:23:10,279:
feelings
3323
00:23:10,279 --> 00:23:11,150:
down,
3324
00:23:11,150 --> 00:23:11,779:
replacing
3325
00:23:11,779 --> 00:23:12,140:
them
3326
00:23:12,140 --> 00:23:12,319:
with
3327
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:12,890:
silent
3328
00:23:12,890 --> 00:23:14,509:
prayers.
We
3329
00:23:14,509 --> 00:23:14,869:
found
3330
00:23:14,869 --> 00:23:14,960:
the

00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:15,259:

3337
00:23:16,849 --> 00:23:17,839:
expected.

they
3358
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:26,240:

00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:26,690:

00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:28,279:
their

3367
00:23:29,539 --> 00:23:29,869:
We
3368
00:23:29,869 --> 00:23:30,170:

00:23:33,980 --> 00:23:34,369:
first

00:23:36,109 --> 00:23:36,529:
played
3391
00:23:36,529 --> 00:23:36,650:
as

00:23:36,650 --> 00:23:37,339:
kids,
3393
00:23:37,339 --> 00:23:37,519:

00:23:39,349 --> 00:23:39,619:
we
3400
00:23:39,619 --> 00:23:39,950:
spent
3401
00:23:39,950 --> 00:23:40,279:
most

00:23:40,279 --> 00:23:40,369:

3405
00:23:40,849 --> 00:23:41,240:
hanging
3406
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:41,630:
out
3407
00:23:41,630 --> 00:23:41,809:

3408
00:23:41,809 --> 00:23:42,200:
falling
3409
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:42,319:

00:23:42,319 --> 00:23:43,670:

3411
00:23:43,670 --> 00:23:43,910:
All
3412
00:23:43,910 --> 00:23:44,029:

3413
00:23:44,029 --> 00:23:44,180:

00:23:44,180 --> 00:23:45,170:
vacant.
3415
00:23:45,170 --> 00:23:45,440:
All

00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:45,559:
of
3417
00:23:45,559 --> 00:23:46,039:
it
3418
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:46,369:
left
3419
00:23:46,369 --> 00:23:47,809:
behind.
But
3420
00:23:47,809 --> 00:23:47,960:
the

00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:48,289:
empty
3422
00:23:48,289 --> 00:23:48,769:
town
3423
00:23:48,769 --> 00:23:49,069:
didn’t
3424
00:23:49,069 --> 00:23:49,339:
feel
3425
00:23:49,339 --> 00:23:49,490:
as
3426
00:23:49,490 --> 00:23:49,819:
eerie
3427
00:23:49,819 --> 00:23:49,970:
as
3428
00:23:49,970 --> 00:23:50,082:
it
3429
00:23:50,082 --> 00:23:50,299:
could
3430
00:23:50,299 --> 00:23:51,109:
have.
3431
00:23:51,109 --> 00:23:51,289:
My

3434
00:23:52,279 --> 00:23:52,549:
picked
3435
00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:52,700:
up
3436
00:23:52,700 --> 00:23:52,759:
a

3438
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:53,329:

3440
00:23:53,809 --> 00:23:54,319:

00:23:54,319 --> 00:23:54,440:
the

3443
00:23:54,950 --> 00:23:55,069:

00:23:55,069 --> 00:23:56,480:
humanity.
3445
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:56,599:
I
3446
00:23:56,599 --> 00:23:56,809:

00:24:03,410 --> 00:24:03,680:
both
3467
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:03,829:
my
3468
00:24:03,829 --> 00:24:04,220:
lovers’
3469
00:24:04,220 --> 00:24:05,450:
heartbeats.
3470
00:24:05,450 --> 00:24:05,660:
And
3471
00:24:05,660 --> 00:24:05,960:
then
3472
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:06,109:
there
3473
00:24:06,109 --> 00:24:06,259:
were
3474
00:24:06,259 --> 00:24:06,349:
the
3475
00:24:06,349 --> 00:24:07,579:
smells.
3476
00:24:07,579 --> 00:24:07,730:
The
3477
00:24:07,730 --> 00:24:08,150:
world
3478
00:24:08,150 --> 00:24:08,390:
was
3479
00:24:08,390 --> 00:24:08,960:
painted
3480
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,140:
in
3481
00:24:09,140 --> 00:24:09,680:
scents
3482
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:10,190:
beyond
3483
00:24:10,190 --> 00:24:10,549:
anything
3484
00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:10,670:
the
3485
00:24:10,670 --> 00:24:11,089:
church
3486
00:24:11,089 --> 00:24:11,269:
could
3487
00:24:11,269 --> 00:24:11,390:
have
3488
00:24:11,390 --> 00:24:12,259:
offered,
3489
00:24:12,259 --> 00:24:12,440:
and
3490
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:12,589:
my
3491
00:24:12,589 --> 00:24:13,009:
brain
3492
00:24:13,009 --> 00:24:13,579:
struggled
3493
00:24:13,579 --> 00:24:13,670:
to
3494
00:24:13,670 --> 00:24:14,000:
sort
3495
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:14,180:
through
3496
00:24:14,180 --> 00:24:14,329:
them
3497
00:24:14,329 --> 00:24:15,289:
all.
3498
00:24:15,289 --> 00:24:15,410:
I
3499
00:24:15,410 --> 00:24:15,920:
suddenly
3500
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:16,549:
understood
3501
00:24:16,549 --> 00:24:16,789:
why
3502
00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:17,180:
dogs
3503
00:24:17,180 --> 00:24:17,420:
tried
3504
00:24:17,420 --> 00:24:17,509:
to
3505
00:24:17,509 --> 00:24:17,869:
stop
3506
00:24:17,869 --> 00:24:17,960:
and
3507
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:18,259:
smell
3508
00:24:18,259 --> 00:24:18,589:
things
3509
00:24:18,589 --> 00:24:18,740:
on
3510
00:24:18,740 --> 00:24:18,859:
their
3511
00:24:18,859 --> 00:24:19,910:
walks;
3512
00:24:19,910 --> 00:24:20,029:
I
3513
00:24:20,029 --> 00:24:20,240:
had
3514
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:20,299:
to
3515
00:24:20,299 --> 00:24:20,660:
force
3516
00:24:20,660 --> 00:24:21,079:
myself
3517
00:24:21,079 --> 00:24:21,170:
to
3518
00:24:21,170 --> 00:24:21,380:
keep
3519
00:24:21,380 --> 00:24:21,829:
moving
3520
00:24:21,829 --> 00:24:22,069:
every
3521
00:24:22,069 --> 00:24:22,339:
time
3522
00:24:22,339 --> 00:24:22,490:
my
3523
00:24:22,490 --> 00:24:22,849:
nose
3524
00:24:22,849 --> 00:24:23,089:
caught
3525
00:24:23,089 --> 00:24:23,180:
an
3526
00:24:23,180 --> 00:24:23,630:
interesting
3527
00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:25,400:
scent.
Seth
3528
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:25,579:
was
3529
00:24:25,579 --> 00:24:26,029:
vocal
3530
00:24:26,029 --> 00:24:26,269:
about
3531
00:24:26,269 --> 00:24:26,329:
the

00:24:26,329 --> 00:24:26,839:
feline
3533
00:24:26,839 --> 00:24:28,130:
experience;
3534
00:24:28,130 --> 00:24:28,279:
he
3535
00:24:28,279 --> 00:24:28,700:
tested
3536
00:24:28,700 --> 00:24:28,880:
how
3537
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:29,150:
high
3538
00:24:29,150 --> 00:24:29,269:
he
3539
00:24:29,269 --> 00:24:29,450:
could
3540
00:24:29,450 --> 00:24:30,079:
jump,
3541
00:24:30,079 --> 00:24:30,380:
how
3542
00:24:30,380 --> 00:24:30,740:
fast
3543
00:24:30,740 --> 00:24:30,829:
he
3544
00:24:30,829 --> 00:24:30,980:
could
3545
00:24:30,980 --> 00:24:31,609:
run,
3546
00:24:31,609 --> 00:24:31,759:
and
3547
00:24:31,759 --> 00:24:32,329:
especially
3548
00:24:32,329 --> 00:24:32,509:
his
3549
00:24:32,509 --> 00:24:32,990:
control
3550
00:24:32,990 --> 00:24:33,200:
over
3551
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:33,380:
his
3552
00:24:33,380 --> 00:24:34,759:
tail.
3553
00:24:34,759 --> 00:24:35,420:
Eventually
3554
00:24:35,420 --> 00:24:35,599:
he
3555
00:24:35,599 --> 00:24:36,019:
started
3556
00:24:36,019 --> 00:24:36,380:
asking
3557
00:24:36,380 --> 00:24:36,559:
me
3558
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:37,490:
questions,
3559
00:24:37,490 --> 00:24:37,880:
knowing
3560
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,029:
that
3561
00:24:38,029 --> 00:24:38,119:
I
3562
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:38,480:
must
3563
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:38,599:
be
3564
00:24:38,599 --> 00:24:39,319:
experiencing
3565
00:24:39,319 --> 00:24:39,650:
some

3567
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,009:

overload
3570
00:24:41,029 --> 00:24:41,150:
as
3571
00:24:41,150 --> 00:24:41,210:
a
3572
00:24:41,210 --> 00:24:42,259:
wolf.
3573
00:24:42,259 --> 00:24:42,380:
I
3574
00:24:42,380 --> 00:24:42,769:
wanted
3575
00:24:42,769 --> 00:24:42,890:
to
3576
00:24:42,890 --> 00:24:43,339:
indulge
3577
00:24:43,339 --> 00:24:43,490:
his
3578
00:24:43,490 --> 00:24:44,480:
curiosity,
3579
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:44,660:
and
3580
00:24:44,660 --> 00:24:44,750:
to
3581
00:24:44,750 --> 00:24:45,049:
share
3582
00:24:45,049 --> 00:24:45,200:

3583
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:45,349:
him
3584
00:24:45,349 --> 00:24:45,559:
these
3585
00:24:45,559 --> 00:24:46,069:
beautiful
3586
00:24:46,069 --> 00:24:46,279:
new
3587
00:24:46,279 --> 00:24:46,849:
dimensions
3588
00:24:46,849 --> 00:24:46,940:
of

sound
3590
00:24:47,450 --> 00:24:47,569:
and
3591
00:24:47,569 --> 00:24:48,799:
smell.
3592
00:24:48,799 --> 00:24:49,640:
Instead,
3593
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:49,759:
I
3594
00:24:49,759 --> 00:24:50,119:
tried
3595
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:50,750:
desperately
3596
00:24:50,750 --> 00:24:50,809:
to
3597
00:24:50,809 --> 00:24:51,140:
shut
3598
00:24:51,140 --> 00:24:51,230:
it
3599
00:24:51,230 --> 00:24:51,410:
all
3600
00:24:51,410 --> 00:24:52,400:
out.
3601
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:52,579:
I
3602
00:24:52,579 --> 00:24:53,029:
immersed
3603
00:24:53,029 --> 00:24:53,480:
myself
3604
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:53,599:
in
3605
00:24:53,599 --> 00:24:54,079:
silent

00:24:54,079 --> 00:24:54,950:
prayer,
3607
00:24:54,950 --> 00:24:55,220:
giving
3608
00:24:55,220 --> 00:24:55,640:
Seth
3609
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:56,029:
nothing
3610
00:24:56,029 --> 00:24:56,180:
but
3611
00:24:56,180 --> 00:24:56,599:
short
3612
00:24:56,599 --> 00:24:57,140:
answers
3613
00:24:57,140 --> 00:24:57,289:
and
3614
00:24:57,289 --> 00:24:57,650:
hints
3615
00:24:57,650 --> 00:24:57,769:
to
3616
00:24:57,769 --> 00:24:58,009:
leave
3617
00:24:58,009 --> 00:24:58,130:
me
3618
00:24:58,130 --> 00:24:59,660:
alone—hints
3619
00:24:59,660 --> 00:24:59,779:
the

tiger
3621
00:25:00,410 --> 00:25:00,769:
just
3622
00:25:00,769 --> 00:25:01,160:
wouldn’t
3623
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,170:
take.
It
3624
00:25:03,170 --> 00:25:03,650:
finally
3625
00:25:03,650 --> 00:25:03,950:
reached
3626
00:25:03,950 --> 00:25:04,009:
a
3627
00:25:04,009 --> 00:25:04,430:
breaking
3628
00:25:04,430 --> 00:25:04,700:
point
3629
00:25:04,700 --> 00:25:04,819:
when
3630
00:25:04,819 --> 00:25:04,910:
I
3631
00:25:04,910 --> 00:25:05,210:
felt
3632
00:25:05,210 --> 00:25:05,359:
him
3633
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:05,809:
flicking
3634
00:25:05,809 --> 00:25:05,900:
at
3635
00:25:05,900 --> 00:25:06,019:
the
3636
00:25:06,019 --> 00:25:06,200:
end
3637
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:06,259:
of
3638
00:25:06,259 --> 00:25:06,440:
my
3639
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:07,490:
tail.
3640
00:25:07,490 --> 00:25:07,640:
I
3641
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:08,089:
tried
3642
00:25:08,089 --> 00:25:08,210:
to
3643
00:25:08,210 --> 00:25:08,569:
ignore
3644
00:25:08,569 --> 00:25:09,019:
it,
3645
00:25:09,019 --> 00:25:09,170:
but
3646
00:25:09,170 --> 00:25:09,230:
the
3647
00:25:09,230 --> 00:25:09,890:
sensation
3648
00:25:09,890 --> 00:25:10,009:
was
3649
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:10,279:
so
3650
00:25:10,279 --> 00:25:11,210:
distracting
3651
00:25:11,210 --> 00:25:11,330:
that

00:25:11,330 --> 00:25:11,419:
I
3653
00:25:11,419 --> 00:25:11,869:
eventually
3654
00:25:11,869 --> 00:25:12,289:
turned
3655
00:25:12,289 --> 00:25:12,440:
and
3656
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:13,789:
snarled,
3657
00:25:13,789 --> 00:25:14,180:
baring
3658
00:25:14,180 --> 00:25:14,329:
my

00:25:14,329 --> 00:25:16,130:
fangs.
Seth
3660
00:25:16,130 --> 00:25:16,400:
held
3661
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:16,519:
his

00:25:16,519 --> 00:25:16,940:
paws
3663
00:25:16,940 --> 00:25:17,359:
up,
3664
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:17,660:
pink
3665
00:25:17,660 --> 00:25:18,140:

3666
00:25:18,140 --> 00:25:19,339:
out. “I’m
3667
00:25:19,339 --> 00:25:19,970:
sorry!
3668
00:25:19,970 --> 00:25:20,089:

them.
4477
00:30:40,464 --> 00:30:40,644:
It
4478
00:30:40,644 --> 00:30:41,065:
sounded

badass.”
“Where

Mark’s

so
4489
00:30:46,464 --> 00:30:47,845:
slightly. “You’d

surprised

4501
00:30:51,984 --> 00:30:52,105:
I
4502
00:30:52,105 --> 00:30:53,454:
scoffed. “Why

4519
00:30:59,095 --> 00:30:59,484:
Without

00:30:59,484 --> 00:31:00,085:
realizing

00:31:00,085 --> 00:31:00,265:
it,
4522
00:31:00,265 --> 00:31:00,505:
I had

00:31:00,505 --> 00:31:00,775:
begun

frustration.

asked. “Why

00:32:02,964 --> 00:32:04,255:
hesitated.

I
4696
00:32:08,125 --> 00:32:08,424:
didn’t
4697

so

I

00:32:10,585 --> 00:32:11,005:
quoted

Mark
4741
00:32:28,914 --> 00:32:29,994:
scolded. “We

“It

Seth’s

sure

it’s

00:32:45,295 --> 00:32:45,865:
asked,

swishing

00:32:46,345 --> 00:32:46,494:

back. “Don’t

feel

“It’s

feel.
4799
00:32:52,914 --> 00:32:53,095:
It’s
4800
00:32:53,095 --> 00:32:53,394:
about

wants.”
I
4804
00:32:55,525 --> 00:32:55,825:
thought

finally
4808
00:32:56,545 --> 00:32:57,085:
quieted

00:32:57,085 --> 00:32:57,384:
Seth

Mark,

and
4813
00:32:58,494 --> 00:32:58,585:
I
4814
00:32:58,585 --> 00:32:58,944:
nearly
4815
00:32:58,944 --> 00:32:59,305:
began

walking
4817
00:32:59,724 --> 00:33:00,025:
once

00:33:00,025 --> 00:33:01,134:
more,
4819
00:33:01,134 --> 00:33:01,315:
but
4820
00:33:01,315 --> 00:33:01,615:
both
4821

me
4826
00:33:03,355 --> 00:33:03,535:
and
4827
00:33:03,535 --> 00:33:03,805:
pulled
4828

me
4829

into
4830

“I

didn’t

right
4904
00:33:32,964 --> 00:33:33,144:

4905
00:33:33,144 --> 00:33:34,494:
just.

00:33:34,494 --> 00:33:34,855:
Nothing
