“Catastrophe !”

Rom has been captured and brought to Project Safeguard which is run by Dire Wraiths. Dr. Sweet plans on experimenting on the Spaceknight to see what makes him tick but the Wraith high command tells her that he should be killed immediately. As the Wraiths move in to kill Rom and Firefall (also a prisoner at Safeguard), they are able to escape and fight back. Firefall gives his life to free Rom's neutralizer from the Wraith sphere that surrounds it. Rom blasts Dr. Sweet with his weapon just as the humans who work at the project burst through the door.
