Darwin's Soldiers 2: Survival of the Fittest

The Ospreys touched down, and their rear doors opened out. One transport carried a group of reinforcement soldiers, but Ariol's group, a motley band of assassins and hitmen, stepped off the second.

"The gang's all here..." Ariol muttered. "Now then. You obviously know you're here to kill some people. As soon as we stop off at the armory for some really nice toys, then we can begin the hunt. There will be some more transports with reinforcements to begin the extraction of Project Dragonstorm, so the least we can do is give them time to evacuate. But, knowing all of you, you're all overachievers, so don't let me down!"

(OOC: You guys can create the members of Ariol's crew, but keep it under 8.)

Delta squad left the lab.

"They're probably in the floor above." Delta leader said.

The squad then headed up a nearby stairwell.

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

"I've got this notebook from the lab." Dr. Kerzach said. "And my knife's gone. I'll get another one."

Dr. Kerzach then quickly ran into the office. Luckily, no one was inside. After rooting through the drawers he came back with a Leatherman tool and an assisted opening knife.

"Hmm. It's not the same as my small knife but it'll do." Dr. Kerzach said. He then opened the knife with one hand, revealing that the blade was almost 7 inches long. "I've also got a Leatherman tool in case we need it. On a more relevant note, where to now?"

Shelton checked his map. "If we want to get away from those soldiers, the best way to get them off our case is to seal the blast walls with them on the other side. Only way to do that is get to either the main control room or auxiliary control, near the sublevels. we should also make more copies of these flash drives and distribute them to any friendly personnel we meet."

Serris · **Reply #523 on:** September 02, 2009, 12:24:58 AM

"Well, there's no flash drives here. I checked the desks." Dr. Kerzach replied. "I'm going to see what's going on."

Dr. Kerzach then stuck his head outside the lab door and spotted Delta squad coming up the stairs at the far left of the hallway.

"Shelton, Delta squad's on this floor. See if you can hack into the system and turn the autoturrets on them."

"I need a passcode for someone who's supposed to work in this section!" Shelton said quickly, looking at the sign above the door, "High Energy Physics! Do you know the passcodes for anyone who works in High Energy Physics?"

Serris · **Reply #525 on:** September 02, 2009, 12:45:53 AM

Dr. Kerzach grinned. "That would be me. Username's SIrving. Password's 15KWYalG."

" so how do we ditch these guys/" aisha asked, coming up as Kerzach began tpying in his password.. "I take it they're not here for a bar-bq..
_ No, they re probably here to aid Dragonstorm" Dr Landon agreed.

Serris · **Reply #527 on:** September 02, 2009, 12:56:38 AM

(OOC - Erm I'm not sure how to work with this as I can't quite see how Aisha and Dr. Landon managed to meet these two without attracting Delta Squad's attention. But I'll try)

"Who are you?!" Dr. Kerzach demanded. He immediately whipped out his knife.

Dr. Zanasiu then entered the room. "Kerzach?! How'd you get here?" He then noticed the knife. "Yuri, those are our allies."

Dr. Kerzach put his knife away. "Sorry for the rude introduction but we narrowly escaped with our lives."

"Shelton! Nice to see you!" Zachary said.

Alfred also filed into the room. "So I take it that these two are reinforcements?"

Dr. Zanasiu nodded.

"How'd you evade Delta squad?" Dr. Kerzach asked.

"Dr. Bailey screwed with their radios. He told them that their targets were in another lab." Dr. Zanasiu replied.

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

Delta leader entered lab 341 only to encounter a Raven scientist who was working on some cell cultures.

Delta leader swore and headed out the door. "Damn it! Why can't Dr. Branston get his [censored] info right."

(OOC: I posted this before seeing Serris' post. This'll be making some massive revisions, ignore all of it.)

"James," exclaimed Shelton. "Sorry to scare you with that copter crash. The pilot was an idiot." He looked at all the people suddenly in the room. "What's up with all these new faces? Were you posting want-ads while I was gone?"

Nick22 · **Reply #529 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:00:25 AM

(sorry I'm a bit rusty in the this rp.. just trying to catch up)
Yeah, we had help in that" Aisha admitted. " So you guys know each other. Dr Aisha Tennes' ay your service" she put out her hand.. " Nice to meet all of you..' She smiled "Thidss is Dr Landon"
_ Nice to meet all of you" Dr Landon said..

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #530 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:07:39 AM

Shelton shook Aisha's hand. "Bummer of a first impression, but I assure you normally I'm much more polite. Kinda. Not really."

He checked the computer scanner. "We seem to have the guards off our tail. That's good, but I don't think we should stay in one place for very long." He glanced back at Kerzach. "By the way, I forgot to mention, you're pretty good with a knife."

Serris · **Reply #531 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:09:18 AM

Dr. Zanasiu grinned. "Sort of. Ms. Tennes and Dr. Landon have already introduced themselves to you. You recognize me and Zach. The big Bison next to me is Alfred Byford. He did construction work here."

"Hello." Alfred said.

Dr. Kerzach nodded. "I'm not much of a knife fighter. I do collect knives though."

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #532 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:10:49 AM

Shelton shook Alfred's hand. "Please disregard the giant metallic eagle on my shoulder. He looks at you like that when he's deciding whether you're a friend or foe."

Serris · **Reply #533 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:16:10 AM

"Pleasure to meet you Mr... Pardon what was your name?" Alfred said, taking Shelton's hand.

"It's Dr. Shelton." Dr. Kerzach said.

"Right, pleasure to meet you Dr. Shelton." Alfred said.

Dr. Zanasiu thought a moment. "Anything significant?"

Dr. Kerzach nodded. "We encountered a Dragonstorm experiment and we recruited one. We also found the embryo room. Oh yeah, I almost got my head smashed by Hicks."

Dr. Zanasiu coughed. "What!? You recruited one of these experiments?!"

"The experiment is on Shelton's shoulder."

Dr. Zanasiu cautiously looked at the metallic Eagle which emitted a series of beeps in response.

Nick22 · **Reply #534 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:19:20 AM

well" Aisha looked at the Eagle, with a quiet awe. " Better to have some experiments on our side, then have them all against us.. Do you have a readout of the floors in this area of the base Dr. Kerzach?' She asked. " It would help to know where we arfrre.. and any escape routes.."

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #535 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:19:53 AM

"I have a map," said Shelton, getting it out. "And don't worry; the experiment is absolutely programmed to be on our side. Remember the final step of the Dragonstorm pruning process was setting its undying loyalty to Dragonstorm? Well, I got in there before that and set it's loyalty to me and anyone allied with me," explained Shelton. "Me and Kerzach would both have died in the embryo lab if it weren't for Ridley."

Nick22 · **Reply #536 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:26:44 AM

Ridley is it" Nice to meet you ridley" Aisha said to the Eagle Experiment.. " What do you feed him? I imagine he has to eat?"

Serris · **Reply #537 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:30:12 AM

Dr. Kerzach shook his head. "We evacuated from my lab too quickly to get a readout."

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

Dr. Bailey then radioed Dr. Zanasiu.

"Doc Z, have you found anything?"

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

Dr. Zanasiu then radioed Dr. Bailey back. "I have, I've found Dr. Shelton, and Dr. Kerzach." He then turned to Shelton. "We've got Dr. Bailey as mission control."

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

Dr. Bailey then looked at one of the monitors. It showed Delta Squad heading their way. "Doc Z, Delta Squad's headin' your way. You'd better move out or prepare for a shootout."

He then activated the autoturrets in the hallways.

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

Dr. Zanasiu nodded and turned to Shelton. "Shelton, Dr. Bailey says that
Delta Squad's heading our way."

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #538 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:30:28 AM

Ridley cawed.

"It was a close call, between that and Steve, but I finally decided he was too charming to be named after my stepbrother." Shelton patted its head. "I have no clue about feeding. Hopefully this ordeal won't take that long, or I can just sic him on people I don't like."

Then he heard what James said.

"Then we should get moving," said Shelton quickly. "I've had first hand experience with their commander, and have no wishes to remeet her."

Serris · **Reply #539 on:** September 02, 2009, 01:33:28 AM

"We can always raid fridges and the cafeteria." Alfred replied. He was eating a large roasted mushroom sandwich.

"Where did you get that?" Dr. Kerzach asked.

"The fridge in the office. You may want to check them out. I remember finding a gun in the fridge before."
