Soon after words, an explosion occurs where Darius used to be standing.


As the smoke from the mushroom cloud clears, a man becomes visable, you realize that the figure is coaked and thus obscures all view of his body. He walks slowly, almost floating, up to Darius. He stands there with his hooded head pointed down and offers Darius his pale hand with unusualy sharp and long finger-nails.

He says in a rough, calm, and dark voice, "My name is Apocalypse. I wish to offer you a partner in your quest."

It is up to Darius Whether or not to accept Apocalypse's offering of a joining of forces.
