Darwin's Soldiers: Disruptive Selection

As the helicopter got closer to the ground, Aimee decided to jump out of it as everyone else begun to fire as she moved into cover herself. She started to slowly make her way closer to the armored SUV....

Approaching the stopped vehicle, she headed towards one of the tired and ripped off the hubcap from it and held it in her hands as she waited for Branston and his two guards to make their next move as she just waited silently...

However, as she was waiting, the second SUV arrived, to which she moved from her position, slamming the hubcap right into the side of one of the guard's face before turning around, swinging the hubcap and managing to slice open another guard's throat before she moved back into cover once again.

Dr. Branston signaled for the two guards and Project Breathtaker to exit and make a run for the intact SUV.

Almost immediately, the doors of the disabled SUV flew open and Dr. Branston and the two guards bolted towards the intact SUV.

Aimee looked over to see Dr. Branston starting to make a run for it and used this chance to move out of cover and throw the hubcap like a discus at Dr. Branston, not aiming for his head or neck, but for his legs in particular, in order to disable him to stop him from running away. She needed him alive after all.

However, she could not get closer to him as gunfire continued to blaze all around her, a few bullets striking close to her position as she ducked away, back into cover. She moved closer to a guard, grabbing him by the neck and slammed his head against the side of the SUV rather hard, once, and then twice before struggling to disarm the guard.

"Sorry about this...." Aimee muttered and actually kneed the guard in the groin, which in turn, caused him to let go of his gun long enough for Aimee to take it from him and slammed the but of it into his head, knocking the guard out.

She moved back out of cover once again and fired at one of the guards nearby, pumping him full of bullets as the others continued to drop dead like flies thanks to those attacking from the helicopter.

Aisha trook aim at fired at Dr Branston, the bullet made contact buckling his left leg . " You get 2 minutes Aimee" She muttered , as he she fired at the guards pinning them down while Aimee would try to grab Dr Branston..

Breathtaker pulled out of the SUV, and the soldier on the helicopter aimed for him and fired a burst of bullets. The rounds passed through him, leaving no damaging mark on him...

"We got another experiment!" Erin shouted over the gunfire.

"Pin him down!" Vic replied. "We need Branston!"

The Comanches lowered to the ground to assist in the attack.

Breathtaker watched calmly for a while before walking away and later disappeared as a mist...soon to appear in the same van as Shelton's...

----------

The soldiers with their weapons on Neku's group waited for orders. When there was no reaction from Dr Zanasiu and his team, Ivory Leader ordered the military police to stand down.

An officer approached them and saluted. He told them that he'll guide them inside to rest and take medical care...

MrDrake · **Reply #2765 on:** August 17, 2010, 01:43:22 AM

As the other guards were being kept at bay, Aimee started to approach Branston amongst the gunfire, the rifle at her side only to throw it away seconds later as she grabbed him by the back of the head "Mr. Branston...." she spoke, pulling his head back a little bit.

She glanced around for a second before looking back to Branston again "Now, it would be in your best intrest to answer a question that I have for you, as we both know that you work for Dragonstorm, and so does Trinity and what I need to know is something simple, that I'm sure someone such as yourself will be able to answer, which is....where can I find Trinity?" she asked, still holding the back of his head, not about to let up so far.

Serris · **Reply #2766 on:** August 17, 2010, 12:16:15 PM

Dr. Branston swore as his shotgun was kicked away. He was starting to become weak from blood loss and the pain of being shot in the leg. "Somewhere in Ida..." he trailed off as he slipped into unconsciousness.

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

Alfred gestured to the rest of his team to follow the officer.

"So where's our next move?" Hans asked.

Cpl. Stern looked around. "I suggest that we rest up and analyze all data we have retrieved," he said.

"Not to mention, Aisha, Aimee and some of our other friends are back in Lab 101," Dr. Zanasiu said.

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

"What's the hold up?" Dr. Kerzach shouted from the backseat of the armored SUV that he and Shelton were riding in.

"Something's up with Branston," said Ajax, grabbing a shotgun and exiting the jeep. "Stay here."

Shelton crossed to the window. He saw what was happening to Branston. "Eurylochus is down," he reported grimly, referring to Branston's code name. "Psycho fox lady has him. Breathtaker, you were just out there, what're our odds of escape?"

(OOC: Where's Aydin right now? I can take over for him, so I have somebody that's still with the main characters.)

MrDrake · **Reply #2768 on:** August 17, 2010, 06:18:59 PM

"That doesn't help....Trinity has Hailey...." Aimee growled back as Dr. Branston stopped answering her question as she practically kicked him whilst he was on the ground before grabbing him once again, pulling him up in order to try and wake him up, but found that he wasn't waking up anytime soon as she pushed him back to the ground, rather annoyed, allowing his head to slam down onto the ground.

"Somewhere in Idaho....oh yes, big f***ing help that is....." Aimee growled some more, speaking rather sarcastically as she kicked Branston once again on the ground and knew she wasn't going to get any other answers from him anytime soon.

Serris · **Reply #2769 on:** August 17, 2010, 09:37:50 PM

(OOC - Assume Aydin is back at the military base.)

Dr. Zanasiu and his group entered the mess hall after they made a brief stop over to the armory to store their weapons and have them cleaned. The mess hall did not serve breakfast yet but it made for a goof impromptu meeting room.

"So we wait now?" Zachary asked.

Gustave nodded. "What else is there to do?" he said, putting his feet on the table.

Cpl. Stern said nothing but kept an eye out for trouble - despite the fact they were inside a military base.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2770 on:** August 17, 2010, 10:00:53 PM

(OOC: Just wanted to mention my request on the discussion page, so you don't miss it.)

Aydin saw them coming and came running. "Where's Aimee?" he blurted out, noting she wasn't with them. "I've asked everyone, and I can't find her anywhere!"

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

Ajax crouched as gunfire shot over his head. Holding the scope to his eye, he sniped two snipers out of a moving copter, rolled to the left, and threw a grenade into the foliage where gunfire was emitting. He then ran back for his SUV, pulling out his pistol and gunning down an approaching shooter.

He dove back into the SUV. "Branston is dead or unconscious," he reported. "We've lost our leader."

"With O'Neil and Montgomery in Idaho with Zenarchis, that leaves you two the highest ranking Dragonstorm survivors in this convoy," the driver informed Shelton and Ajax.

"Then start up the vehicle and I'll give the order for everyone to move," Shelton ordered. "Whatever's up ahead, we need to punch through or we'll be picked off one by one."

He contacted all the drivers. <Attention, this is Achates of DS-1. With Eurylochus' incapacitation, I'm taking control of this convoy. Start your vehicles and follow the evacuation path. The SUVs are armored; they can't hurt us if we just keep moving.>

(OOC: Shelton has forgotten that he's not actually in Dragonstorm. Kerzach might want to remind him what side they're on.)

MrDrake · **Reply #2771 on:** August 17, 2010, 10:15:01 PM

Shakila looked over to Aydin for a moment "Not a clue, she wasn't on the helicopter we came in on, so I guess she's on the other one" she spoke, giving off a shrug as well.

She walked over to one of the table and sat down on the chair, giving off a stretch and yawned some as well, it had been one long day.

***

Viper remained back at Lab 101 still, searching through the rubble, trying to find, well, anything she could, but was still having no luck at all as she gave off a groan before seconds later, deciding to just vanish, leaving Lab 101 in ruins.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #2772 on:** August 18, 2010, 02:03:26 AM

Ivory Squad had put away their weapons and gear, then joined the rest in the cafeteria, Ivory Leader being the last.

"I just got news," Ivory Leader began. "Crimson Squad and anyone else not left behind are on the other chopper, but they just got into a firefight with some escaping scientists. They'll most likely be coming here too with all the fuel they're burning. Unfortunitely, they have just about all the data we took from Lab 101..."

----------

"We'll be picked off sooner than you think," Breathtaker commented. "They want Branston only, so get this rock rolling or I'll have to kill the damn student driver here to do it..."

----------

"Either take him or leave him!" Vic shouted as he reloaded. "Reinforcements for the convoy are coming this way!"

The soldier at the mounted gun barely misses getting hit by some stray rounds as ricochets echoed in the cab, also just missing Aiko by inches...

----------

While Neville was being treated, Subject 16's body was moved to the laboratory where Dr Joe was starting to take blood samples for analysis, for she has hunches about where the individual came from...

MrDrake · **Reply #2773 on:** August 18, 2010, 02:17:47 AM

"Take him or leave him? He's suppose to die....at least that's what Aisha said she'll do! She wants to kill him....and she might as well! This moron was of no help to me!" Aimee practically yelled back as she kicked Branston in the head, still frustated with what information he had given her.

She grumbled a little bit, crouching down and started to slowly drag Branston back to the chopper, well, to the best of her ability, but even Branston was a bit to heavy for her to heave along "What the hell do you eat every day?" she grumbled even more, giving off a growl.

***

"Yeah, I guess you could say that, I gave that Vic fella the data I had taken from the lab as well, but I do recall a few things I did manage to read....one in particular, that kiara has apparantly fought before, a Dragonstorm experiment, he went by the code name of Drake....his experiment number being, 626 I believe...." Shakila spoke up next, looking over to Ivory Leader "But that was it, not much else was known about him, other than what Kiara knows from fighting him.....so I guess you could ask her about him" she added on with a light shrug.

***

Kiara on the other hand, was now being examined "So....doc....you think you can heal me up by any chance?" she asked the one whom was examining her.

(ooc: I know it was one of your character Mirumoto, but I forget who was the doctor....)

***

Subject 19 had removed the pole from her chest and threw it to the ground as she stormed out of the building....she still had unfinished business to attend to in this town, one being, finding that guard that had escaped and killing him.

***

Meanwhile, in the same town, inside the FBI building, there was still one more surviver, however, for him, things weren't looking to great....he was injured around his neck. His name, Agent Johnston....he had managed to clear out the building of the monsters, however, his whole FBI division had been wiped out in the process, something that he was not happy about as she made his way towards the exit, gun in hand, one that was made especially for his Gorrilla hands.

(ooc: Yes, Agent Johnston, the same Gorrilla who is Kiara's boss, is still alive....at the moment anyway, just forgot about him is all XD)

Dr. Kerzach was snoozing as he heard Shelton's transmission. <Shelton! What are you doing!? You're not actually on Dragonstorm's side! Are you trying to make James's job harder than it already is?!> he said mentally. He was pretending to be asleep.

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

Dr. Zanasiu held up the stolen hard drive. "I filched this from a scientist's locker, I'll have Dr. Bailey look at it later," he said.

Dr. Bailey yawned as he put his head down on his hands and fell asleep.

Alfred was drinking some coffee he had brewed. He found it quite disgusting but it helped wake him up.

Gustave yawned. "I dunno about anyone else but I could use some sleep," he said.

(OOC - that is the same hard drive that Dr. Kerzach stole from the refinery in Fools Gold.)

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2775 on:** August 18, 2010, 03:36:52 AM

The driver quickly put the SUV into gear after hearing Breathtaker's line, and they rolled into the front of the convoy. The rest of the convoy followed their lead.

"They're going to shoot us out into oblivion," said Ajax gravely. "Their combined fire on our SUV will surely penetrate the armor, and with our deaths there will be no more officers alive to run the convoy."

"We'll have to risk it," said Shelton, though he was already contacting every good-guy chip in range. <Attention Anti-Dragonstorm copters. This is Dr. Shelton. Myself and Dr. Kerzach are in the lead Humvee, please don't shoot it and kill us.>

He heard what Kerzach said. <Oh yeah,> he suddenly realized. <I'm sorry, I just thought-- I forgot we didn't. . . eh. . . >

Outside, the convoy started rolling in unison, breaking through the defenses and heading for freedom.

Serris · **Reply #2776 on:** August 19, 2010, 01:19:56 AM

"Wake me up when breakfast is ready or when Aisha and the others return," Dr. Zanasiu said, laying on a table and falling asleep.

Dr. Bailey, Zachary and Hans were asleep as well. Cpl. Stern, Werner and Gustave were gulping down the disgusting coffee they brewed in an attempt to stay awake.

Alfred downed what seemed to be his fifth cup of coffee. "I'm going to see if Neville is okay," he said, getting up from his seat and heading out the door.

"Excuse me, sir but where is the hospital?" he asked a Fruit Bat soldier.

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

<Shelton, that hard drive I pinched from Rara Terra Smelting, it's gone!> Dr. Kerzach said mentally. He quickly checked all his pockets: empty save for his wallet and switchblade.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2777 on:** August 19, 2010, 01:29:36 AM

Aydin marched through the base, not willing to accept Shakila's mediocre answer about the whereabouts of Aimee. He noticed the officer that saluted Dr. Zanasiu's team and grabbed him by the collar. "Where's the comm tower?
I need to contact the last chopper to see if someone's on board! Take me there now!"

MrDrake · **Reply #2778 on:** August 19, 2010, 01:36:29 AM

Aimee continued to try and lug Dr. Branston's body along the ground "I so need to get paid for doing something this....stupid now" she grumbled to herself as she got closer and closer to the helicopter, although, was still taking her time, doing her best to still try and drag him along the ground.

"Take him, leave him, kill him, don't kill him....oh sure, if it had been my way....he would already be dead as it is and I would not be in this perdiciment, but no...I have to drag his ass all the way back to the helicopter, and why? Because everyone else probabally will also have answer for him....and if he answers them more clearly, I am so going to be pissed off...." Aimee continued to grumble and speak to herself, a bit loudly for that matter.

***

Shakila was just sitting back down, she had not moved from where she had taken a seat, being a bit too tired to do so as she groaned a little bit and practically slammed her head down upon the table "Oww...." was all that followed it.

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #2779 on:** August 19, 2010, 01:45:27 AM

Ivory Leader and two of his soldiers were behind Aydin, handguns drawn and pointed at his head. Three Marine Corps guards saw what happened and they too drew their guns.

"Unless you want a dozen bullets in your thick head," Ivory Leader said grimly, "you drop him now... THEN maybe I'll help you check on your friend..."

----------

Although she doesn't have such a chip, Snow picked up on the message. "Some of our guys are in one of the cars getting away," she said to Vic.

"Alright! Lighten your load on the rest of the convoy, but keep the pressure on Branston!"

The Comanches lifted away to keep cover on the Chinook.

"That lady's gonna need help!" Ice shouted as he put his gun away. "Watch my back!" The Wolf then leapt from the chopper to assist Aimee in dragging Branston, stopping once to freeze an enemy soldier with his breath...

----------

The guard had been working on a series of traps across several floors of the building, some with grenades, others with homemade spikes or thin cutting wires for traps...
