"See Midian Fall"[]
All is chaos as members of the Shere Neck Police Department as well as vigilantes representing the Sons of the Free stage a massive raid on the underground sanctuary known as Midian. Although the Night Breed are vulnerable, they are not powerless. Aaron Boone leads the defense as police officers begin targeting children. Philip Decker dons his Button Face mask and makes his way through the carnage, targeting all Night Breed as well as sympathizer such as Lori Winston. The dying Dirk Lylesberg unleashes the Berserkers - hideous monstrosities that are completely bereft of humanity. As the Berserkers attack, the tide of battle turns in favor of the Night Breed. Aaron Boone, now dubbed Cabal by their god figure Baphomet, has his final showdown against Philip Decker.
