  Intro From Game Manual
++++++++++++++++++++++++++

A few years ago, strange things started happening in the usually quiet American 
school of Leafmore. It is said that some students heard awful screams, and 
there are talks about mysterious disappearances.

Motivated by the disappearance of one of their friends, a group of students 
decide to start investigating these bizarre and frightening events.

One evening after class, they lock themselves inside the school, fully 
determined to discover what hides behind their seemingly ordinary school.  
Through long corridors and dark halls, Shannon, Kenny, Ashley, Stan, and Josh 
will come to understand why their school has turned into such a horrid place, 
while trying to survive.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Special Aptitudes From the Game Manual
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You can use special aptitudes by pressing Y when the symbol appears on the 
screen. 

Kenny Matthews - Kenny has great physical strength, which allows him to run 
faster, hit harder and be more resilient. When you press the Y button, Kenny 
will start sprinting for a period of time.

Shannon Matthews - Shannon can take care of her companions better than the 
others. Moreover by pressing on the Y button, Shannon will give you precious 
information about the current riddle. If she is your teammate, you can call on 
her to help you by pressing up the directional pad. 

Ashley Thompson - When playing Ashley you certainly have an edge in most 
fights. She is the only one double shooting with a fire weapon. She has a 
remarkable bat swing! During combat, once you have aimed using the right 
trigger, fire or hit using the Y button instead of the A button. 

Stanley Jones - By playing Stanley, certain door or cupboard locks are no 
longer obstacles. Standing next to them, Stanley picks them by pressing on the 
Y button. Whenever you press the Y button he will tell you if there is 
something to pick in the room. 


Josh Carter - By playing Josh, you will see objects or clues blinking 
immediately every time you enter a room (whereas for the other characters, the 
objects only blink when you pass them by). At any point, by pressing the Y 
button, Josh tells you if there are any objects left for you to pick up in the 
room. 

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Level 1:  Kenny's Capture
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You start off playing as Kenny. Shoot a few hoops if you want, and then head to 
the locker room to pick up your stuff. You can hear your cell phone ringing; 
it's probably your girlfriend Ashley. You'd better answer it. Enter the locker 
room. Pick up your cell phone from the bench. Somebody stole your stuff. Follow 
the thief back into the gym.  You can press and hold the Y button to run. 
Follow him through the garden and into the basement doors. Pick up the STICKY 
TAPE and the FLASHLIGHT, and OLD PISTOL from a barrel. Follow the on screen 
directions to use the tape to combine the flashlight with the gun. Climb down 
the ladder.

Follow the hall and open the door at the end. Check out the table.  It holds 
syringes and weird products. Also check out the cages, and make your way 
through the room to the door on the other side. Open the only open door. Talk 
to the guy in the room, his name is Dan. Now he's your teammate. Run from the 
monsters and make a mad dash for the exit. 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Level 2: Administration Building
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Pick a character, and a teammate. Pick up the DISC, and the BAT from the table. 
Also read the SCHOOL NEWSPAPER.  You can use the bat to break the right vending 
machine and pick up an ENERGY DRINK. Use the Bat to break open the glass door 
and search the janitor's closet. You've picked up a REEL OF WIRE. Use the reel 
of wire to pick the lock. Make your way out to the school foyer. Check the wall 
to your left as you enter the foyer.  You can pick up an ADMINISTRATIVE 
BUILDING MAP. In the small hallway across the foyer, enter the first room on 
the left. Pick up the ROLL OF STICKY TAPE. Go back out into the hallway, and 
enter the girl's restroom. Pick up the DISC in the last stall. Enter the boy's 
room, and a mysterious mold will cover the walls. Exit the room, and then re-
enter. Pick up the ENERGY DRINK from one of the stalls and exit again.

Now we will explore he second level. Check out the left hand side of the 
building you can't enter these doors for now. Check out the bulletin board on 
the right side of the second floor. The last door on this side is a glass door, 
so break it open with your bat. Inside, read NOTE 1 on the desk. Push the 
bookcase to one side, and then pick up the missing SCREWDRIVER.

Go back downstairs to the girl's bathroom. Use the screwdriver to open the 
grate. Climb inside. In the bathroom on the other side, pick up an ENERGY DRINK 
from the top of the lockers. Make your way into the teacher's lounge. Examine 
the file cabinets to find the TEACHER'S MAGAZINE. Pick up the OLD RUSTY KEY 
from the long table.  Examine the bulletin board to find the NOTE FROM THE 
MINISTRY OF HEALTH. Make your way up the stairs to the upper level of the 
teacher's lounge. Pick up the DISC near the computer. Read the TEACHER'S 
NOTEBOOK. Check out the STUDENT FILES on the table. Apparently, Stan's grades 
suck. Also examine the photos on the wall, to find two photos of some guy who 
looks like a young version of your principal. Pick up the TEACHER'S ROOM KEY 
from the small cabinet near the lockers. 

Enter the records room and pick up a DISC from the shelves. Read the 
CONSTRUCTION PERMIT for the high school. Make your way down to the teacher's 
lounge and unlock both of the doors. Lets go up the stairs to the third floor. 
Pick up the FIRST AID KIT to the right side of the door, and use the rusty key 
to unlock it. Inside, some weird creatures will attack you. One of your 
teacher's Mr. Walden will save you, by breaking open the window. He will also 
open the doors to the school, so that you can go find Friedman.  Examine the 
rest of the room to pick up a METAL BAR, and an ENERGY DRINK. Make your way 
down to the first floor, and meat your crew in the middle of the courtyard.

  Notes and Clues
*******************
Strange Disappearance - The Leafmore high school is, once again, at the heart 
of the controversy. In effect, Greg Anderson, a second-year student, 
disappeared on Monday night.  It was after classes that his friends in the 
dormitory notified his absence.  He had gone to the sick bay after feeling 
unwell and it was there that he was seen for the last time. Another student 
disappears! The list of disappearances from Leafmore has got even longer, with 
a new victim. Tom Maheust. The police have not real clues at this date and a 
lot of parents have decided to change their children from the school. In 5 
years, no less than twelve students and no trace has been found.  The Leafmore 
affair: the police react. New measures have been taken by the police in the 
"Leafmore disappearances" affair. After the disappearance of a sixteenth 
student, Richard Craig, last Thursday.  Controversy at Leafmore "But what are 
the police doing? When will they order the closing of this school?" said Mr. 
Flynt when coming out of police headquarters, after the disappearance of his 
son, Harry.  The answer was not long coming. The principal of the 
establishment, Mr. Friedman, came this morning to meet journalists: "It seems 
that the furious lunatic wreaking havoc on our premises is only interested in 
the students staying in the dormitory. We have, therefore, by agreement with 
the forces of law and order, close access until order returns. Closure of the 
Leafmore dormitory. Three years after the last disappearances at Leafmore, none 
of which have been solved, Herbert Friedman, principal of the high school, 
officially announced that everything was back to normal. "Although the 
perpetrator of these crimes is still loose, it seems that the closing of the 
dormitory calmed the ardor of the mental patient responsible for these 
disappearances. 

Mortifilia Notes - The Mortifilia comes in the form of ciphers. Classification 
appears difficult. This endemic plant allows microscopic buds to appear, which 
do not appear destined to form a new plant but to possibly generate other 
leaves (for closer examination). The parasite and the spider-like appearance 
explain its capacity to propagate in an excessive manner. Hypothesis verified 
by the presence of an oversized sucker ensuring proliferation. Detailed 
examination of the buds: the bud shows a stupefying germinative power. Hundreds 
of lines at the neck confirm that the species has phenomenal longevity. Cutting 
the xylems: the ducts are completely dry. No trace of humidity. How are these 
chlorophyll cells irrigated? The black substance released comes from glands 
located on the root; it is poisonous to its biological environment. During a 
darkness - light - darkness sequence, variation in dioxygen concentration are 
observed, whether DCPIP is present or not. The plant is particularly sensitive 
to exposure: it fears the light! This plant transgresses the rules of 
phytology. Molecular analyses show genetic associations that enable the 
Mortifilia to be defined as a non-recombinant isolat at the genetic level; this 
means that it does not have a sexual process of exchanging genetic material, 
but a parasexual one. I attempted and experiment during which a transient 
diploid node was formed. In this node, mitotic cross-over was produced at low 
frequency. The diploid node then self-haploided through the loss of 
chromosomes. Using this system, two distinct species could exchange genetic 
material. Conclusion: It is certain that the Mortifilia possesses abnormal 
properties. Notwithstanding its incredible longevity, the plant is particularly 
receptive to crossbreeding. Research must be continued and the genotype of 
these cells must be examined in detail. 

Commerative Plaque - a commemorative plaque for a scientific expedition. You 
can see the coordinates on it. Longitude 330 - Latitude 20.

Post It - A post it note from Friedman: "I'm in the library if you want to see 
me."

Letter from Elisabeth - My dear Herbert, I am writing to you in secret. Leonard 
would leave me if he knew I was meddling in his work. You are his twin brother 
and sometimes it seems to me that you understand him better than I. That is why 
I would like you to speak to him. We quarreled last night. He is completely 
obsessed with his research and I fear he will go too far. He wants to attempt 
the experiment on himself, I am certain. You know him, he is capable of it. 
That would be foolish, the subjects treated are only stable after three weeks. 
There may be secondary effects that appear much later. Please try to reason 
with him Elisabeth.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Level 4: Find Principal Friedman - Library
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Make your way down to the first floor, and use the library key to enter the 
library. Check out the guy on the steps, and he will mutate in to a monster, 
and another monster will also attack. Back near the entrance pick up the 
LIBRARY MAP from the wall. In the side hallway near the door, break the glass 
door and pick up the SCRAP OF PAPER from one of the desks inside. Back in the 
side hall pick the lock on the nearest door, and break all the windows to 
destroy the entity inside. Pick the lock on the cabinet in the corner to gain a 
GOOD QUALITY FLASHLIGHT. In the next classroom, on the left side of the hallway 
from the office, blow out the windows to destroy the monsters. Pick up the 
STICKY TAPE from one of the desks. Use the scrap of paper from the office on 
the projector to reveal the numbers 2432. Examine the last classroom, and watch 
as a monster breaks the window and then dissipates. Pick up the DISK from the 
desk.

Go back to the office and use this code to open the safe. Read the LETTER FROM 
KERRIDAN, and pick up the LIBRARY KEY inside. Go back to the hallway that leads 
down the stairs. Enter the Boy's room and use your screwdriver to open the 
vent. Pick up the PISTOL AMMO inside. In the girl's room pick up an ENERGY 
DRINK. Go down the steps, and before entering the library, pick up the DISK 
from the bench. 

Inside the library, look inside a box sitting in the stacks. Read the NEWSPAPER 
ARTICLE. Pick up the DISC from one of the tables. Meet Mr. Friedman at the back 
of the library. He tells you to find the Janitor and he will let you out. When 
Friedman leaves, examine the EXPIDITION NOTES on his desk. Time to exit the 
library and join up with the gang.

  Notes and Clues
*******************
Letter from Kerridan - Dear Leonard and Herbert, I am writing to you as your 
friend. I have just come out of the Seattle conference where your book "Eternal 
life is possible" had an explosive effect. You discoveries totally contradict 
the theories of Dr. Leon Korsenberg and I expect an unfavorable reaction from 
the council. You have virulent detractors who fear that your research is 
immoral and casts a slur on the entire scientific community. I have analyzed 
the file. Your theory certainly goes against the first law of medical ethics. 
You understand that without the support of a reputation, it will have no other 
destiny that sinking into oblivion. And, sadly I do not have sufficient weight 
to prevent that. You may find salvation outside the scientific community, you 
know. I fear that sanctions may even be taken against you and I cannot advise 
you strongly enough to locate your work in a safe place. I remain, my dear 
friends, yours sincerely, Your loyal friend, Walt Kerridan. 

Newspaper article - Destiny strikes the Friedman family again. The community is 
in mourning at the death of Leonard Friedman. More than a citizen, the city has 
lost a brilliant, conscientious and dynamic researcher. Leonard worked to 
advance the work of the brotherhood, not recoiling from any obstacle. The 
scientific community, despite it differences with the duo, admitted that "He 
was among those who could have helped us advance in giant steps". As all the 
vents surrounding this unusual family, the death of Leonard Friedman remains 
enigmatic. Although a good pilot, Leonard lost control of his craft before 
crashing into the sea. His twin brother Herbert, the only escapee from this 
terrible accident, was rescued from the open sea off Long Island.

Expedition Notes - The vegetation is really very strange, particularly the 
trees. Two more porters have disappeared and we have discovered a slashed 
corpse. The native are frightened and want to leave the island. Yet, I think we 
are reaching our goal. The flora is evolving in parallel with our progress, 
which is difficult, both physically and morally. Bizarrely, the fauna is 
becoming rarified, the atmosphere leaden, the silence heavy. The specimens 
found here and the geology show that this island was cut off from the world and 
has followed a parallel ecological development for three thousand years. But 
this period of time would not be sufficient to cause such brutal changes. That 
would need millions of years. Something has accelerated the evolution of the 
species and this ecosystem. I want to find out what it was. We have a trail: 
black putrefying matter, which appears overnight on the vegetation, appears to 
be more and more prevalent as we progress north wards. Traces indicate this may 
have come from a tubercular plant. Tomorrow, we must reach the volcanic peak. 
The soil is light in this part of the island, which should facilitate our 
analyses of the sub-soil. Leonard Friedman Travel Journal 1895.

  Level 5: Rescue Nurse Wickson
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As you make your way back to the center of the courtyard you can hear something 
collapse. Make your way to the Janitor's room. Pick up the SHOTGUN, SHOTGUN 
AMMO, PISTOL AMMO, DISK, and GOOD QUALITY FLASHLIGHT. The Janitor is dead. 
Enter the back security room and pick up LAST NIGHTS SECURITY VIDEO.  As you 
pick up the DINING HALL KEY, the video surveillance equipment shows Ms. Wickson 
in the infirmary. Use the surveillance video in the VCR to see what happened to 
Kenny last night. Also look at the subject 37 video. 

Go back to the courtyard and enter the dining hall. Defeat the monsters in the 
dining area, and pick up the PISTOL ammo from the table. At the end of the room 
enter a kitchen area. Pick up the ENERGY DRINK, DISK, and an AUTOMATIC PISTOL 
WITH 10 BULLETS. Go back to the dining area, and up the stairs and defeat the 
waiting monsters. Break the vending machine to pick up the ENERGY DRINK inside. 
Pick up the FIRSTAID KIT from the table, and the SHOTGUN AMMO from the serving 
area. 

Enter the kitchen and pick up a DISK and FIRST AID kit. In the next room, pick 
up the SHOTGUN AMMO. You can pick the lock on the cupboard to gain a BOX OF 
FUSES, but first you have to take out the monsters. You can hear Ms. Wickson 
calling from the other room. She won't open the door until the lights are back 
on. Go back to upper dining area and use the fuses in the fuse box next to the 
Vending machines. Flip the lower middle switch to the left, and the upper 
middle switch to the right. The left hand switches should be from top to 
bottom: Right left, left. The right hand switches from top to bottom should be 
up, right, right. The lights will come back on. Make your way back upstairs and 
talk to Ms Wickson. In the nurse's station pick up the two FIRST AID KITS, the 
DISK. Read the LETTER FROM HERBERT. When you open the door you will gain the 
WHEEL. Make your way back to the courtyard.

  Notes and Clues
*******************
Letter from Herbert - Elisabeth, You were not there, so I am leaving you this 
message. I hope it will be sufficiently clear. This morning I saw Mr. W coming 
out of the amphitheater. I suspect it was he who left the lock chamber open 
last night. That idiot is putting everybody in danger. You know that the 
current instability means that we cannot take the least risk. We must do 
something. Try to engage him in conversation today, you may be able to learn 
more. Herbert. 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Level 6: Find Kenny - Campus
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Make your way back into the administration building. There are three monsters 
that will immediately attack, so be prepared with weapons and your health. Take 
them out and you will see that the stairs have collapsed.  You can pick up some 
SHOTGUN AMMO.  Make your way through the teachers lounge to the records room. 
Use the wheel to gain access to the door at the other end of the records room. 
Pick up the ARCHIVE 23 FILM, PISTOL AMMO, CONSTRUCTION PHOTOS, and DISK. As you 
are leaving the building you will run into Mr. Walden in the upper teacher's 
lounge, looking for Friedman. He will give you the AMPHITHEATER KEY.

Get to the parking lot outside of the amphitheater. You can pick the lock on 
the rusty van to gain a FIRST AID KIT, but you will also be attacked by two 
monsters. Inside the amphitheater, pick up the DISK from the reception desk, 
and the STICKY TAPE from the nearby table. You can also pick up an AMPHITHEATER 
MAP near the door. If you check out all of the paintings in the hallway, you 
will see Herbert Friedman looks the same.

Enter the main theater through the double doors. In the back of the auditorium, 
pick up the STICK TAPE from one of the speakers. In the last row of seats there 
is a FIRST AID KIT. Pick up the WOODEN PLANK from the stage. Use the controls 
in the center of the room to lower the viewing screen. Go back out to the 
lobby, and up the stairs at the end of the hall, and defeat the monsters on the 
catwalk. In the projection room, pick up the SHOTGUN AMMO. Use the film reel on 
the projector, and watch the film. 
 
Go back to the auditorium and back stage and pick up the FIRST AID KIT, PISTOL 
AMMO, and the ENERGY DRINK. Enter the dressing room, and pick up the DISK and 
the SHOTGUN AMMO.  Turn the safety off of the elevator, and ride it to the top. 
Take out the waiting queen, and pick up the FIRST AID KIT. When you defeat her 
she will knock open the hatch. Ride the elevator back to the first floor. Use 
the plank in the elevator while the doors are open, and then ride the elevator 
back to the second floor. One there exit the elevator, turn on the safety using 
the lever, and climb down the hatch. If you don't turn on the safety, someone 
will die. Back on the first floor, climb down the ladder inside the elevator. 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Level 7: Find Kenny - Basement
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At the bottom of the elevator shaft, pick up the DISK, FIRST AID KIT, PISTOL 
AMMO, and POWERFUL FLASHLIGHT. Enter the door, and follow the passage way 
straight ahead to its very end. Take out the two monsters that attack, and pick 
up the ENERGY DRINK. Follow the passage around the corner, and enter the door. 
On the other side turn to the right, and you can see some vines growing through 
the wall. Just beneath the large hole in the upper area of the wall, and near a 
square piece of metal, pick up the SHOTGUN AMMO. Pass the locked door, and 
enter the door at this end of the hallway. Inside kill the monster, and in the 
blocked end of the tunnel, pick up the SHOTGUN AMMO and THE FIRST AID KIT.

Exit this area through the door you used to enter. We will now explore the 
opposite end of the hallway. Follow it all the way to the end, and in the last 
side tunnel, enter the room. Defeat the creature inside. Pick up the RESEARCH 
NOTES, FIRST AID KIT, and DISK. Make your way back out in the hall. This 
portion is easiest to do with one character, or by making one character stand 
out of the way in a corner. With two characters one of the characters tends to 
get killed in the crossfire. Enter the room at the end of the side hall that 
you passed. Push aside the large cage in front of the raise platform. Pick up 
the SEMI-AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN. Use the sticky tape to join the powerful flashlight 
to this shotgun. Pick up the HOSTAGE LETTER. Push the cage away from the door, 
and prepare to do battle.

Pick up the LEVER from the table, and watch the monster in the cage mutate. 
Keep your distance or he will grab you, and defeat him. Enter the cage it was 
in and you can pick up a LIGHT GRENADE. Equip it and make your way back out 
into the hall. Two super mutated creatures will attack, so use the grenade on 
them. Make your way to the room with the dissection table, and get ready to 
fight of the mega monster waiting inside. Use the lever on the sparking switch 
to open a secret hatch. Make your way down the ladder. At the bottom, pick up 
the PISTOL AMMO, and enter the nearby door. It's Kenny!

  Notes and Clues
*******************
Research Notes - Jan 18, 1903 Leonard seems to have handled the treatment 
reasonably well. No special symptoms. March 24, 1903 After a few days his skin 
is covered with melanoma. The tumors are not metastasizing very much, but their 
large number is causing a worsening in his general condition. March 30, 1903 
The hypersensitivity of the skin to UV radiation and the first lesions 
resulting from this are similar to Xeroderma Pigmentosum, an inherited illness. 
This illness is due to a mutation of the gene that protects against skin 
cancers. But, in theory this illness is hereditary. April 18, 1903 Henceforth, 
Leonard will protect himself from the sun, but the damage is done. The light 
rays have cause an acute reaction in the Mortifilia gene inserted into his 
system. We did not foresee this, because our previous guinea pigs remained in 
their cages. At present the entire surface of Leonard's skin is suffering 
profound mutations. May 25, 1903 The mutations appear to have slowed down. They 
are however, spectacular, and I ask myself how he can survive in this 
condition. The wounds have transformed into scabs that look as though they will 
remain, like the bark of a tree. The damage to his skeleton and his metabolism 
appear irreversible. His temporal lobes and his upper members are the most 
affected parts. Jun 30, 1904 His condition has stabilized. His mental condition 
concerns me as much as the appearance he has taken on, if human can still be 
spoke of in this case. The only hope to cure him now is to have new guinea pigs 
who have suffered in the same way, in order to test a therapy aimed at 
eradicating the gene and returning the subject to his initial condition. 
September, 24, 1926 This research is very long I will not live long enough to 
achieve my goal. Unless I inject myself with the treatment and remain in the 
shadows until the serum is discovered. 

Hostage Letter - If you are reading this letter, you have probably been as I 
was, locked up by Herbert Friedman. I can't get out but you might be luckier 
than me. I am afraid I will soon be used as a guinea pig, like all the other 
students. If you do get out, I have put together, in a safe hidden in the 
dormitory, all the proof necessary to bring down Friedman. Find the .

door lock. Pick up the PLIERS and use them to cut open the lock on the trunk. 
Take back all of your stuff. Exit through the unlocked door, and take out the

it. Boost one of your teammates up and use the hook to pull the ladder down. 
Climb up and make your way back to the infirmary. At the end of the courtyard,

Letter From Congress - Office of the Technology of the Congress, Dear Sirs, 
Following the conference in Seattle, where your publications and particularly 
your work entitled "Eternal life is possible" were the subject of much 
discussion, the experts examined your research . As it was generally accepted 
that the use of your knowledge cannot be controlled, no can the ecological, 
social and ethical consequences of your discoveries in the field of life be 
measured, we had to reach a decision on the maintenance, or not, of the 
research budgets. What safeguard can be imposed against the eugenic temptation 
foreseen by your hypotheses? Sacrificing the environment of breeding for the 
benefit of an artificial and very certainly contagious life cannot receive our 
support. The contribution of your work to the knowledge of individual 
characteristics is one thing, but modifying the transmission of these 
characteristics by such inhuman means is another. As a consequence, the Office 
of Technology of Congress, in agreement with the international scientific 
commission has issued a report ruling on your expulsion, for life, from this 
community. We will be required to legislate on the archiving or destruction of 
your research on cellular prolongation. In conclusion, no assistance will be 
allocated to you; your equipment and all your work will be confiscated and re-
sold. Sworn State agents will arrive on 8th October to seal up the premises. As 
regards Leafmore High school, a commission will decide on the necessity of 
closing it or not. Cordially yours.

fountain in the middle of the courtyard, you will know that you need to put the 
statues in order around the room machine, broken statue, arms like a cross, 
praying, and arms behind the back. Use the lever to start the machine and open

Make your way up the ladder and into the room with the hatch. Watch Walden and

the plant pillars. Pick up a FIRST AID KIT and AMMO Enter the open door. It's 
monster Leonard, and he's pissed because Herbert's dead!

You now have to fight Herbert. The goal here is to shoot all of his appendages 
that shoot up to the ceiling. If you saved your laser, now is the time to use 
it. He has three kinds of attacks. The first is a poison pillar attack. He 
causes poison to rush from the floor to the ceiling like a geyser. Another is a 
poison wave where he causes the toxic waters around him to wash outward in a 
wave. As you destroy his appendages, light spots will appear that can offer you 
some protection from these two attacks.  The last attack he will hit you with 
his tentacle/arm if you loiter in the light spots or one place for too long. 
After all the tentacles have been destroyed the ceiling will fall on him and 
you will find yourself in the gym.  You will have to battle him again, just 
keep shooting and avoiding his attacks. Eventually the rising sun will get him.

  Notes and Clues
*******************
Mutations Document - Post-treatment mutations. Type 1: Generalized melanomic 
attack. Prolonged exposure to UV creates micro-cancers in every individual, 
combated by the cells using specific proteins. The treatment stops the creation 
of these proteins. The subject therefore develops numerous skin cancers. These 
cancers revive the inert mutagenous properties of the treatment. The cancer 
becomes general and often give rise to type 2, 3, and 4 mutations. Type 2: 
Polytrophy of the members. Very frequent, this mutation causes hypertrophy in 
the subject or hypertrophy in one of the members. It manifests itself in the 
over-development of the arms, or only some phalanxes, the tongue, etc. The 
hypertrophy is sometimes generalized and causes wounds that are often 
gangrenous. Type 3: displacement of the central nervous system. The nervous 
system is relieved and then replaced by a hybrid nervous system. The symptom is 
spectacular as the head is neglected to benefit other organs. It is often lost 
by the subject after long days left without bloodflow. Type 4: merging. In a 
non-sterile environment, the subject sometimes comes into contact with foreign 
bodies. On occasion these bodies (fly, ameba) have merged with the subject. The 
results are very variable. Sometimes very little of the original individual can 
be recognized.

Experiment Notes - Subject 22 February 17 Age: 17 years Rhesus: O Negative 
Preparation for test no 1735: Preparation in sterile conditions for 50 hours at 
37degrees Celsius of 7.2 mg/ml of xGm and 100 mM of methylglioxak prepared in a 
swab of phosphate 100mM pH 7.8. Exposure time to UV after injection of the 
agent: 72 hours. Waiting time for injection of treatment: 20 days Pathology 
level: Level 3 (metatastic) Reaction to the treatment: Day 1: General condition 
stable pathology Temperature: 33 degrees Celsius. Day 2: General condition: 
unstable pathology Temperature: 38 degrees Celsius Day 3: General condition: 
numerous hemorrhages Temperature: 43 degrees Celsius. Failure: death of subject 
Conclusion In man, the apoptosis of pericytes induced by the xGM is governed by 
the inducement of an oxidizing stress. This stress must be controlled.
