USE THE ABOVE INFORMATION (STORY ELEMENTS PROVIDED) AND ILLUSTRATE IN FIVE PAGES THE BIO-TERRORIST ORIGIN AND HIS BREAKOUT FROM THE ALASKA FACILITY. MAKE SURE THAT YOU MAKE THE SCIENCE GROUP WHO MUTATED HIM A MYSTERY AS WELL AS WHO BIO-TERRORIST WAS. REALLY FOCUS ON ILLUSTRATING HIS BREAKOUT AND WHAT THAT WAS LIKE. SHOW HE IS CONFUSED AS TO WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM. ALSO, SHOW HIM DEALING WITH HIS HORRIBLE POWERS AS HE BREAKS OUT OF THE COMPLEX. KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE IS A RETRIEVAL TEAM SENT TO GET HIM BACK SO THAT BIO-TERRORIST DOES NOT MAKE IT BACK INTO SOCIETY AND EXPOSE THEIR RESEARCH METHODS AND THAT THEY USE LIVE EXPERIMENTS IN THEIR STUDIES. SHOW HOW BIO-TERRORIST DISPOSES OF THESE SOLDIERS THAT ARE AFTER HIM. MAKE SURE TO USE YOUR IMAGINATION TO DISPLAY HOW HE KILLS THEM TO STOP THEM FROM COMING AFTER HIM. DRAW IN GREAT DETAIL THE MOST HORRIBLE WAY HE KILLS THEM. BE VERY GRAPHIC IN DOING THIS.
