Another jump in the footage, and Mark's dad had taken the riot gear off but was still in the lab. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, he was playing cards with a three-year-old Mark. They were smiling and joking. That was the man Mark knew. Maybe that was when this iteration was born. Looking at the dejected figure in the chair, the anger inside of him settled. Nothing would change who he was as a father. That was, and always will be, real.

"It was a miracle that you were safe, Mark. It was like she knew to leave you alone." Before Mark could respond, his dad added, "After she'd escaped, I ran out into the complex, grabbed you and some food, and locked us in the lab. It was a bloodbath outside of that room. Everything the marines had told me about the virus was true."

"Why didn't you listen then?"

His dad didn't respond.

The footage jumped forwards again. "We stayed in there for a week, and no one came to find us."

On the screen, Mark's dad left the room.

"Eventually, food started to run low, and I had to do something. Leaving you on your own was the scariest thing I'd done in my life, but I had to do something."
