They begin experiments. Within days, they realize the pillar grants abilities—mutations, enhancements, powers beyond comprehension.

🧬 Scene 2: The Experiments Begin

The lab becomes a crucible of chaos. Human trials begin. Some subjects gain powers. Others lose their minds.

Eight weeks pass. The team fractures.

> Don: "We were scientists. Now we're gods playing roulette."

He pleads with Vera to stop. She shoots him in the chest.

> Vera: "Progress doesn't wait for conscience."

Lisa finds Don's body. Overwhelmed, she takes her own life the next morning.

Lena, Quan, and Henry stare at the lifeless bodies—haunted.

Henry and Lena stumble into one of their creations—Experiment 101, a malformed humanoid with glowing eyes.

It tears them apart.
