Quotes 

• 1 : Sometimes one must be sacrificed.

• 9 : You're nothing but a coward.

  1 : How dare you challenge me; I, who kept everyone safe all these years? Ever since you got here, everything has been unraveling! You're a curse, A FOOL, guided by pointless queries!

  9 : And you are a blind man, guided by fear.

  [something flies by the window, darkening it] 

  1 : Sometimes fear has the appropriate response.

• 1 : [Looking at 9, standing in front of the "Great Machine", and talks to himself about the human race]  They've left us nothing. Nothing. Why do we have to right their wrongs? Sometimes one must be sacrificed.

  [1 runs and pushes 9 away from the energy beams that consequently suck his soul instead] 

• 1 : I know enough to leave their ancient evils to molder. Look what they've left us with. Leave it be, I say! But YOU! Always asking questions. So many pointless questions. Probing. PUSHING. Like 2! He always had to know too much!

  9 : I was right; you DID send him out to die!

  1 : He was old! He was WEAK!

• 1 : You owe me a cape.

• 1 : When we awoke in this world, it was chaos. Man and machine attacked each other with fire and metal. I lead us here to sanctuary and here we waited for the war to end. Slowly, the world became silent. The only thing that remains now is The Beast. So we stay hidden, and we wait for it too, to sleep.

  9 : But where did it come from? Why is it hunting us?

  1 : Questions like that are pointless. We need to protect ourselves; keep ourselves out of danger.
