The following presentation is rated TV 14.

It has been several hours since my last contact with external security.

I fear the lower gate may have fallen, and with it, the ability of the San

Francisco House to defend itself against whatever may be out there.

With the set link down, three hours ago, Alexandra Moreau volunteered to go for

help. Unless she can somehow get off the island and return with reinforcements

before we are overrun, it may be too late.

I will attempt to leave this record for whomever may find it in the hope our

work here may not have been in vain.

It is after midnight now.

We have been under siege since nightfall.

As for who or what may be behind this attack, I can only guess.

Only Nick Boyle and I remain.

Given the situation, extreme measures must be taken.

The attic's clear and near as I can tell.

Then there's no telling how long that's going to last.

Well, at least there's one thing to do.

Activate the EPD.

Emergency perimeter defense?

Yeah. Electrify the external walls. No one enters without knowing the code.

Will they get fried?

Pretty radical.

Extreme circumstances call for extreme measures.

I'll meet you at the front door in five minutes.

All right.

This will be my final written entry.

All further comments will be made on my voice -activated recorder.

Nick?

I'm above the foyer.

Stairs are clear.

Still no visual contact.

I've made it to the EPDR.

Nick?

Nick?

It's now 12 .52 a .m.

Nick has been taken.

My fear is that he's no longer within these walls and may be captured, or

I have no choice but to set the emergency perimeter defense.

Whomever or whatever is behind this obviously knows how the Legacy operates.

There are several possibilities.

Leave on Zoltar?

After all these years, it's good to be back.

Leave on Zoltar.

A legacy.

This very island which so long has been awash in rectitude.

Become a haven for my new flock over my dead body

Was

your

father who killed me

Sweet irony.

But his house and everything in it will be destroyed, leaving behind only the

hollow echoes of your pitiful existence.

Stan, I thought you thought I was dead.

You should have stayed away,

Stan.

Now you'll have to die along with the rest.

Tommy, fight him. Don't let him take you over like this. Tom, he's gone.

His body is merely a vessel.

He's there. I can feel him.

Don't do it, Tom. He's your brother. My brother in the dark.

Don't get into him, Tom!

Nick won't spare him.

That's impossible.

I saw him die.

Who then?

Who is attacking us?

No. I'm not going to let you take advantage of him.

I only want what's best for him, Milos.

You know that. Leave the boy alone.

Your arrangement was with me.

Our arrangement's terminated.

Can't be more. It was dangerous, but he doesn't know this house.

Must be someone else.

Don't you dare you

Haven't you always known?

Give yourself to me.

What are you doing here?

You should know you brought me.

How?

They're wanting me.

The same way that I want you.

That's wrong.

You love Samuel.

Samuel's gone, Derek.

But we trapped her.

Now, let's finish this.

Be gone.

Evil one, be gone from the earth.

Be still.

Be still and give in.

Do you think you can resist someone as ancient as me?

I have been feeding off your cards.

She killed Samuel. Get the field box. Open it.

Become evil.

Become from the earth.

I know what you are now.

See you in your true form.

Sealed up forever in Samuel's field box.

It has to be another.

It's 1 .30 a .m. The attacker, repelled by parameter defense, did not get a good

look, but I'm certain it was a woman.

You control your emotions well.

I like that.

We're going to stop you.

You must know that.

You think so?

You think you were chasing me?

I don't have to make love to you to kill you, you

know.

I can do it any time I want.

This time you live.

Next time you won't.

Now you let Nick know I'm doing this for him.

He'll understand.

With Nick missing, there's always the possibility he's been taken by a

known as Karen Morgan.

I'm not going to hurt you, Nick.

I love you.

I want you to love me.

I know you care about me.

I can feel it.

You're a murderer.

Cold -blooded.

Don't you see, Nick?

I've chosen you.

If you like, I can feed you with my strength.

you change your mind.

That's impossible.

I saw her die.

I knew you'd come.

You remember?

Your tree?

How could I forget?

You were right.

The view was beautiful.

Yeah.

I hope it didn't interrupt anything.

A murder, for instance.

That hurts me, Nick.

You should talk.

I am what I am, Nick.

I do what I have to do to survive.

You're a murderer.

But I'm not a monster.

I love you, Nick.

I want to be with you.

I know you want me too.

Don't you?

Yes, I do.

I know we can.

Tell me you love me.

Let me hear you say it.

I love you, Karen.

You're not feeling anything.

No, I'm not.

What are you doing?

Nick. Nick!

Take me over!

Nick, help me.

Nick, is that you?

Nick?

Nick?

At least I killed one of them.

I'll identify him.

And maybe we'll know who's safe.

The body is gone.

But his blood isn't.

It's now 2 .37 a .m.

I'm in the control room trying to analyze the blood from the floor of the

in the hope of identifying who's behind this assault on the legacy.

One thing is certain.

There's more than one assailant.

But who the leader is, I don't know.

Jordan?

That's far enough.

This way.

We're trapped.

Still doesn't make any sense.

Jordan would never have come after me directly.

Rick, that was... You found me.

You came to me.

I knew you would.

What the hell kind of dark deal you got going on here?

What did you do to Scott and Bax?

Nothing.

They're dead.

Don't you remember?

You were there.

You brought them back.

They helped me with my work.

Your work?

Spreading the word of God.

By killing his clergy?

No.

You must look past the killing.

There's a necessary evil.

Where I come from, there's no such thing as a necessary evil.

Where you come from, there is no future.

Convince you to join me.

What the

hell

happened to them?

They're gone.

It was Nick he was trying to recruit.

Luring him away to the cave of the spider god.

appears unable to find a DNA match, but that's impossible.

Indications are it's the blood of a dead man.

Someone disarmed perimeter defense.

Entry through quadrant four.

Alex. Derek, the permanent is missing. I know.

I had to arm it. I had no choice.

Easy does it.

Let me rearm the EPD.

No, I already did.

What happened?

Derek, it was horrible. When I slipped down, I made my way across the island to

the cove, and that's when I saw them.

Who? Could you see their faces?

No, it was too dark.

But they're everywhere.

They've surrounded the whole house.

There are too many to fight.

It's amazing I got back.

But you were right.

Yeah, I... I just need a moment.

Yeah, not too fast. Let me help you.

Just get me to my room.

Of course.

Where's Nick?

Dead or captured. I don't know which.

Don't worry.

He's very strong.

Yes.

He is.

You wait here.

I'll be right back.

And my friend, I've already got her.

Justine.

Justine is dead.

Alex, stop.

Alex looked into me.

A moment too late.

She's mine.

I think not.

But Philippe is dead as well.

So who?

It's so strange.

These uncontrollable urges.

I don't know where they come from.

I went out to get help.

I tried. I really did.

But Marcus was waiting for me.

And he told me to come back.

That his minions had already broken in.

And were waiting for him.

with you should have done

this a long time ago you don't want to do this

He's right.

I really do.

Stop with your own volition. Remember.

Remember.

You must reject the powers of darkness.

Derek.

Alex, listen to me.

The undead, the vampires, are trying to pull you back.

You must fight them.

Fight them?

Yeah.

Philippe is dead.

You killed him with your own hands.

You must remember.

Think back.

Kill him, Alex.

Kill him.

Your soul is on the line, Alex.

Your immortal soul.

You can still be saved if you reject him.

If you reject all of this.

Stop. Do it, Alex.

Remember who you are, Alex.

Don't listen to him.

Remember what you stand for.

Don't surrender your soul.

Kill him, Alex.

Alex.

Do it.

I was hoping you'd remember.

But I killed you.

Derek.

We've been expecting you.

Mr. Darcy would like the pleasure of your company.

I'm at a disadvantage. You know my name, but I don't know yours.

Marcus.

Marcus.

I'd love to say it was a pleasure knowing you.

Unfortunately, it's been anything but.

Derek.

I was really hoping we could be gentlemen about this.

Speak for yourself.

You can be.

I killed you.

Oh, can't I?

Is your memory really so short that you don't remember?

Follow me.

Follow me.

Sleep.

Don't think so.

Where's Alex?

Where is he? I'll show you.

Still listed as a John Doe.

Cause of death was massive trauma. But his tissue seems to be in a strange

of degeneration.

Here's the best part.

Oh, ugly.

My incision.

But guess what?

This is exactly the way he looked when they brought him in. My God.

He's been autopsied before.

Scientifically speaking, what we have here is...

He simply can't exist.

This is very strange chemistry indeed, Derek.

Alchemy, not chemistry.

Mid -evil alchemists could turn lead into gold.

Vampires supposedly carry the same secret through time.

Through time?

Well, it's got to be how old you think these creatures are.

Well, it's difficult to say.

They have some kind of supernatural strength that increases with age.

They say that a truly ancient vampire...

A master vampire can never be killed.

So, you are the master vampire.

Very good.

Some people never understand.

It's my youth, I suppose.

You see, once you die young, you look young forever.

I see your eyes.

I should have known.

How many years have you been around?

Hundreds.

And you say, I intend to live forever.

Now that both Justine and Philippe are dead, Alex's initiation falls to me.

Only if she lets you.

Let's me?

What makes you think she won't let me?

I mean, don't you see?

That's why I've come back.

To turn Alex into one of us.

Alex, you must fight him.

Philippe may have been stupid enough to engage you in a test of wills over Alex,

but I won't make the same mistake you're saying.

Vampires have walked the earth since the dawn of time, always ready to prey on

whoever might fall beneath their sway.

Luckily, Alex was stronger than most.

Yet without a legacy, she too would have joined the ranks of the undead.

Thus we must stand together.

For in a world where evil knows no bounds, only the vigilant survive.
