Darwin's Soldiers: Disruptive Selection

Aimee nodded back a little bit "Yeah, I'm fine....just...." however, she shook her head, deciding not to say anything else on the matter as she stood up "Let's just get going and find Trinity...."

She walked off ahead of everyone else, just staying quiet for the time being as she looked around, noticing another piece of paper on a nearby wall of a house, to which Aimee grabbed it, it was part of her piece of paper that had her notes on it.

However, she didn't bother to read it as she walked towards the front of the house, another section of her piece of paper on the door of it as she looked through the windows, noticing an empty house, as if it had been abandoned for quiet some time.

"Do you think this could be where Trinity is?" Alfred asked

Dr. Bailey looked through the grimy window. "Could be but this house looks like it hasn't had anyone living in there for quite a while," he replied.

"So we enter?" Zachary asked.

"Where else can we go?"

"Good point,"

"Cobalt Squad do you mind doing the first entry?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.

Cobalt Leader and the two Cobalt soldiers shook their heads.

"All right, let's do this!"

Dr. Zanasiu, Cobalt Leader, Zachary, Dr. Bailey and the Cobalt soldiers moved next to Aimee.

"Aimee, we're entering this house," Dr. Zanasiu said.

MrDrake · **Reply #622 on:** March 13, 2010, 04:34:15 PM

Aimee turned the doorknob to find that it was unlocked before she entered the house first and took a quick look around. It was indeed empty, well, there was furnature within the house, but all was rather dusty, save for one thing in particular, a television set which was on with static.

She approached the television set as it begun to flicker some more and Trinity's face appeared on the television "So, you honestly expected that after your little wild goose chase that you would actually come face to face with me?" she let off a light little snicker as well, sitting back within the chair she was in.

Aimee growled a little from that, her fists clenched once more as she glared to Trinity, not even sure on what to say next.

"Ah, you look rather dissapointed there Aimee, like you want to go ahead and punch something....why don't you try it? Try punching one of your little friends there, it'll be good, trust me, besides, they are to blame after all, if it weren't for them, you would have all the answers you were after, but of course, they were stopping you from knowing such things, keeping the truth from you, they're not really there to help you in the end" Trinty spoke up next with a slight chuckle in her voice.

shut you sadistic witch' Aisha spat "you're the one shes after.. you and Kain.. she didn't get these cybernetic arms by choice..you forced them on her, didn't you.. and for what? Some sick satisfaction some perverse pleasure? We will find you.. and get answers from you.. and then you will receive the justice that is coming to you.. so if I were you.. I'd run.. and stop tormenting this poor girl.. goodness knows you've done ebough already.."

MrDrake · **Reply #624 on:** March 13, 2010, 09:40:44 PM

Trinity placed her feet up onto the table in front of her, a small pocket knife in her hand as she placed the tip of it to her other fingers, more or less balancing it between her fingers as she looked over to Aisha "Me? Running? Sorry, but I do not listen to such weak threats, so don't you worry, your little vixen friend there shall be taken care of, one way or another, I can assure you of that one"

She seemed to let off a light yawn too, but smirked some more "Oh, and speaking of Kain.....I think he does wish to have a little talk with Aimee" the tv screen the flashed as another face appeared instead, that of Kain.

Kain looked to the direction of Aimee "Subject 17....it has been a while" he glanced only very quickly to the others before looking back to Aimee once more "I'm rather impressed that you have survived this long away from the lab"

Aimee snarled by that point "Kain....."

Kain looked to Aimee's arms "Do answer me this....how has it been with your new and improved arms?"

"They are not improved!" Aimee yelled back straight away "You did this to me!"

Kain chuckled only lightly "Anger.....just a side effect of it....and I bet you're wondering what has happened to your past" he snapped his fingers as a small box was bought over to him, to which her opened it up and pulled out what was a small section of a brain "A shame really, this contained many memories that you could've used" he inserted a claw into it and turned it a little bit.

Aimee touched her head a little bit, snarling some more as Kain spoke some more "Besides, it's not like anyone will miss what Subject 17 used to be like...."

"Aimee....my name....is Aimee!" she yelled back at him.

Cobalt Leader and his soldiers had finished sweeping the house.

"There's nothing here, except we did find some of the news articles," Cobalt Leader said, handing over the articles over to Aimee.

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

"You think you can get away?" Alfred said. "You are wrong. We will find you and we will get answers. Now tell us, where is the Trinity Facility!"

Zachary, Dr. Zanasiu and Dr. Bailey were looking around for other clues.

"Aisha, I have a feeling that this woman may be connected to Dragonstorm," Dr. Zanasiu said.

Nick22 · **Reply #626 on:** March 13, 2010, 09:58:34 PM

it was not a threat but a promise.. so you did more then just take her arms, you also took a piece of the brain which deals with memory! no matter what she did in the past, no one deserves to be treated like that..so here's another promise.. i Aimee doesn't get you.. then I will,," Aisha snapped..

MrDrake · **Reply #627 on:** March 13, 2010, 10:07:44 PM

Kain looked over to Aisha "Threats and promises are all the same, one can threaten someone, but yet, say that they promise to do that....so allow me to make up a promise at the very least....I shall promise you lot this, if by some chance, you do happen to find me....Subject 17 there will be killed and the rest of you.....well...." he let off a light chuckle as he motioned for the camera peron to follow him.

He entered a room with a rather large tank in the middle that house something inside "Do answer me this question, what do you lot know about....Dragonstorm?" he decided to ask as he looked to the tank still.

Aimee was indeed, rather pissed off at the moment, her heat now racing from the anger within her. Kain was right there, yet, she just could not even touch him as she scrunched up the news articles she was handed.

Nick22 · **Reply #628 on:** March 13, 2010, 10:13:04 PM

Enough to know they're murderous pyschos..and you're in league with them!' aisha replied"What did they promise you in return for your cooperation?

Serris · **Reply #629 on:** March 13, 2010, 10:53:28 PM

"We know that Dragonstorm engages in kidnapping and that it was originally based at Pelvanida. We also have the names of the scientists involved in it," Dr. Zanasiu replied.

"We've answered your questions. Now answer ours: where is the Trinity Facility and Lab 101?" Alfred spat.

Dr. Bailey noticed a piece of paper stuck to a wall. He pulled it off the wall and looked at it using his pocket flashlight. "Uh, guys," he said, "has anyone heard of this name, 'Weyland-Yutani'?"

Dr. Zanasiu thought a moment. "I have; Weyland-Yutani is one of the foremost manufacturers of prosthetic limbs and other cybernetics," he said.

"Guess we should pay a visit to their headquarters then," Cobalt Leader replied.

"No. We don't want a repeat of the logging camp incident."

(OOC: AVP reference by any chance?)

Kain raised his hand up "You are in no situation to be demanding answers from me" he then turned to face the camera as from within the tank, two red eyes gleamed from within it.

"Tell me!" Aimee's voice was raised rather loudly by that point.

Kain only chuckled a little as he looked over to those who had found out something else out "Weyland-Yutani?" he waved his hand a little bit "I guess they can do with a visit from you lot...."

Aimee was growling some more as Kain spoke still "As for you Subject 17, underneath the tv is something for you....something you might find rather interesting" he let off a chuckle "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have more important things to deal with than to speak with you lot" the camera moved over to another person strapped to a table as his hand was chopped off before the camera turned off.

Aimee approached the tv and kicked it backwards as it was more or less destroyed to which she picked up what Kain had told her about, a small DVD disc and looked at it, still growling.

Nick22 · **Reply #631 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:15:48 PM

i promise you sir" Dr landon said with a sneer ' that i will undo this travesty you have performed on aimee... how would like it if someone started pulling out pieces of your brain..? he did not meet with a reply as aimee destroyed the tv..

Serris · **Reply #632 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:38:31 PM

(OOC - Yes, a reference to the seminal SF-horror film, Alien.)

Alfred was fuming at this point. "Let's take the DVD and analyze it when we get back. No use staying in this crappy house," he said.

"Aimee, may I see one of your arms?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.

"Al's right, we should get back to the hotel and report our findings to Hans and Werner," Dr. Bailey said.

MrDrake · **Reply #633 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:50:50 PM

Aimee glared to Dr. Zanasiu as she was in a rather foul mood at the moment, moving her arms up, staying quiet at the moment, just growling still.

***

Back at the hotel, Shakila was still in her room as she continued to work on her laptop still, mainly, decoding more of the files that she had stolen from her boss "Now, what have you really been up to....Trinity? Hmm, I do wonder who this Trinity woman is...." she spoke to herself, unaware that Grabriel and Trinity were one in the same "Well now, this is something, Lab 101...." she looked more closely at the files in regards to Lab 101, trying to understand them some more, until she had come across and phone number and an address.

She let off a light purr as she more or less crawled over to her stuff on the couch and grabbed her cellphone, adding the phone number into her phone before going back to the computer to try and pinpoint the address "I wonder if it is the location to Lab 101....or something else....hmm..." she spoke to herself some more as she continued to work on her laptop.

Serris · **Reply #634 on:** March 14, 2010, 12:06:34 AM

Dr. Zanasiu examined Aimee's arms. "Yep, these were made by Weyland-Yutani," he said. He then wrote down the model number for it on a scrap of paper.

"Hey, didn't Pelvanida have a contract with Weyland-Yutani?" Zachary asked.

Dr. Zanasiu nodded.

Alfred thought a moment. "You know, now that we know the model number, we can possibly find out who or what ordered these arms and then we can possibly find the address of the Trinity Facility or Lab 101," he said.

"Al, we are not going to raid Weyland-Yutani's headquarters!" Dr. Zanasiu said,

"We don't need to do any raiding. We can simply subpoena info from them."

"Yeah, know any one with authority willing to help us?" Dr. Bailey replied.

Alfred turned to Cpl. Stern. "Corporal, do you think you can get us a subpoena for Weyland-Yutani?" he asked.

MrDrake · **Reply #635 on:** March 14, 2010, 12:17:02 AM

Back at the police headquarters, the same cadet that was speaking with Aimee and Aisha before, was indeed, put in charge of the case as the gun was bought back from forensics "No fingerprints on it?" he had to think for a second, rubbing his forehead a little.

His name was Jayden. He moved to his computer as he looked at the gun's serial number and typed it into the computer in order to find a match as he called Alfred's cellphone number "Still am trying to find some leads on your Trinity woman, the one that your vixen friend was after, but so far, nothing, no fingerprints were available on the gun, so, I'm trying to find out where the gun had come from at the very least and.....hold on..."

Jayden looked to the computer screen "Weyland-Yutani? That doesn't make any sense, they're just a maufacturing company" he spoke into the phone without actualy realizing it "Okay, I found out something, Weyland-Yutani....ring any bells for you lot? Well, get this, someone from that company had purchased the gun that your Trinity friend had given to Aimee"

Serris · **Reply #636 on:** March 14, 2010, 12:27:05 AM

"Hello?" Alfred said, picking up his cellphone. "Yes it does, we found a piece of paper with the company's name on it. Weyland-Yutani is a prominent cybernetics company, which I believe has a contract with the government," He then covered the mouthpiece of the phone. "Guys, that gun is registered to Weyland-Yutani," he said.

"But how? Most guns are registered to a single owner unless...," Dr. Bailey's voice trailed off.

"They are purchased in bulk, like for a police or security force" Zachary finished.

"Weyland-Yutani has to equip its guards too. That means that Trinity is a guard for Weyland-Yutani or she stole one of their weapons," Cobalt Leader said.

MrDrake · **Reply #637 on:** March 14, 2010, 12:35:33 AM

(OOC: How far away would the headquarters be anyway?)

"Well, I'm afraid that we don't have any information on this Trinity woman, so the best guess would be to try out the Weyland-Yutani facility, if you guys are going there, I'll meet you there, I do want to find out some more information as well" and with that, Jayden hung up the phone and gathered his affects and promptly headed off without telling anyone else.

Noname · **Reply #638 on:** March 14, 2010, 03:08:38 AM

Stern replied to Alfred, breaking a silence he had maintained for a long while.

"I don't think I can get a subpoena on my own, but I would need help from the local law enforcement. Still, if I can present a compelling case and offer enough evidence, then yes, under those circumstances, I can get it."

Serris · **Reply #639 on:** March 14, 2010, 03:24:35 AM

(OOC - I would imagine Weyland-Yutani's headquarters to be in a major metro area like New York City or San Francisco. However, a factory could be in Portland, Oregon)

Alfred nodded and hung up the phone. "Looks like we'll have to get to Weyland-Yutani's factory or something before we get to Lab 101. But it sounds like a member of the Lincoln City police might be helping us," he said.

"That makes getting a subpoena easier," Dr. Bailey said.

"So do we head to Weyland-Yutani's headquarters now?" Zachary asked.

"No. We don't know where the hell it is. It could be across the country for all we now and we can't simply break into the factory."

Zachary sighed. "Maybe we should go back to the hotel and digest all the info,"

"Yeah, the others are probably getting worried about us.

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

Back in Hans's room, Neville yawned.

"Hey, don't you think James and his group should be back by now? I mean how long does it take to eat dinner?" Spc. Crota asked.

Neville looked at the clock. "It's 0100 hours and they're still not back yet," he said.

Sgt. Masters was coiled up and snoozing on the couch.
