The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Feral watched as the guards scattered, and homed his fire on the control next to the door they came in, taking away their chances of escape or reinforcements to arrive.  Slowly, the guards started going down from the infiltrators' gunfire.

Aiko sent a wave of bullets underneath the desks, striking the legs of two guards.  One fell further into cover, the other exposed himself to Vic's aim...

----------

"I don't get paid to do cleanup," Ariol remarked.  "That would be your security's job...which is why the brass sent me here..."

"Well, what do you want to do?" Dr. Branston asked.

--------------

Alfred looked around at the destruction the group had wreaked on the lab: electronics were reduced to piles of metal and plastic; various pieces of scientific equipment were either smashed to pieces or shorted out; almost every cabinet was either smashed or riddled with bullets; the lights had been shot out; the sink was clogged and the water pipes broken, covering the lab's floor in a layer of water. The only thing intact was the fumehood.

"Well, let's head out." Dr. Zanasiu said.

"I'd say we fixed this lab up nicely." Alfred said with a grin, hefting his shotgun.

Zachary chuckled. "So what do you say we 'fix' some more labs?"
---------------------

The squad that arrived to reinforce squad 451-F found the door jammed shut.

"Sir! We can't open the door!" One of the guards said.

"Bastards must have jammed it shut." the squad leader, an Armadillo said.  He pulled out a brick of C4 from his backpack."No matter." He quickly wired the door with C4 and motioning for his men to take cover behind crates, or even down nearby hallways.

He pushed the trigger on the detonator and the C4 blew the door to pieces with an earsplitting roar.

His men quickly took up defensive positions.

"We wait, shoot when they appear." the squad leader said.

"The reason I'm here is because the top brass are not at all pleased with the reaccuring problems here," Ariol replied.  "Like what's going on right now.  He's considering having Project Dragonstorm moved into more secured facilities.  And he's even had a few new places just about ready to make it happen..."  He paused to inhale another puff of smoke...

----------

Vic cursed under his breath as reinforcements managed to blow their way in after all.  He spotted the camera on the ceiling above and put five rounds into it.

Feral turned to Snow, who crouched nearby.  "Snow!  Scorch these tangos out!"

Snow nodded and sent forth a strong wave of searing blue fire and sweeping it across the room from one end towards the main door, then lets loose a stronger blast through the door...

"We're working on the problems, Ariol." Dr. Branston said. "You are more than welcome to kill the intruders."

-----------------

Two of the guards were incinerated by the blast of fire but a guard threw a fragmentation grenade into the room.

The squad leader's uniform was singed by the intense heat from the flame but he was far enough that was not incinerated.

-----------------

"More guards." Alfred whispered, pointing to the squad next to the other door.

"Why is it so hot?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.

Zachary pointed to the lab, where an intense jet of blue fire was issuing from.

Zachary looked out. He was sweating from the intense jet of fire coming from the lab. "We can't get past them; the heat from that jet of fire coming from the lab is too intense. There's also a guard on the other side of the door. They're trying to flush out whatever is in that lab."

"So what do we do? Cause a distraction?" Alfred asked.

Dr. Zanasiu grinned. "Nice thinking!" He turned to Aisha and Dr. Landon. "Any ideas for a distraction?"

"Grenade!" Aiko shouted.

Everyone dove for cover as the little bomb exploded, sending bits of metal everywhere.  A piece of shrapnel ricochet off the cold hard floor and struck Feral in his right thigh.  Feral growled but clenched his teeth from the pain.  The same guard pulled out another grenade and removed the pin, but did not have the second chance as Vic sprang back up and gunned him down.  The grenade slipped out of the dead guard's hand.

"Fire in the hole!"  Vic shouted and ducked again...

----------

"And prove the incompetency of your security?" Ariol was smug.  "Why not send one of your experiments?  They are supposed to be super soldiers, and we are expecting results from your work."

The grenade exploded killing the rest of the guards.

----------------

The report of the grenade reached the ears of the group hiding in the adjacent lab.

Zachary looked out the lab door and noticed that the guards were dead and the jet of fire was gone.

"Okay, let's go check out that lab." he said, motioning for everyone to follow.

Zachary, Dr, Zanasiu and Alfred readied their weapons and headed into the hallway.

They then took positions opposite the door: Zachary on the left, Alfred on the right and Dr. Zanasiu, behind a large crate, diagonal to the lab door.

-----------------

Dr. Branston grinned and radioed the scientists. He turned to Ariol. "I'm currently seeing which experiment is ready."

Meanwhile, Dr. Bailey had managed to lift one of the closet ceiling tiles damaged in the previous terrorist attack. He pulled himself into the crawlspace and headed towards his old lab.

Dr. Zanasiu shook his head. He pointed to Alfred and Aisha and himself then pointed inside. He pointed to Zachary and Dr. Landon and then pointed to their respective positions outside the door.

Dr. Zanasiu and Alfred burst into the room sweeping around with the tactical lights on their shotguns.

"Odd, there's no gunfire." Alfred asked, looking around.

Dr. Zanasiu hit a light switch and noticed that the room appeared to be empty.

"Check behind all the tables." Dr. Zanasiu said.

Alfred nodded.

But the room was far from empty...

Aiko appeared behind Alfred with his gun at his back, Feral tossed a desk in the path of the doorway as Aisha moved in and raised his gun at her head.  Vic also sprang up with the laser sight at Zanasiu...and his jaw dropped.  "Dr. Zanasiu?!"

Dr Joe, hearing this, popped up with a stunned look on her face.  "Dr. Zanasiu?  What're you doing here?!"

"You know them?" Aiko said, hesitant about lowering his gun...

Dr. Zanasiu nodded. "We had arrived from Carson City Camp to dispose of Dragonstorm. These are my allies: Aisha Tennes and Alfred Byford." He then turned to the door. "It's all clear, we've met some friendlies!"

Zachary then came in. He looked around. "Dr. Joe, Vic!?"

Alfred relaxed slightly but did not lower his weapon. "You know them?"

Dr. Zanasiu nodded. "I know two of them. Vic Summers and Professor Josephine Stephenson also known as Dr. Joe. They were with us when we helped secure the facility."

"Ah, so they're allies?"

Snow came up next to see the commotion and relaxed some.  Vic, Aiko, and then Feral lowered their weapons.

"Sorry about that, Dr Zanasiu," Vic replied.  "We never thought anyone else will be dropping by to help."

"Are you the only ones here?" Feral questioned.

----------

Ariol crossed his arms.  "Good.  After all of this is done, then we'll start talking about the move."
