Coming' Dr Landon said..
_ Aisha was the first of the captives to be dragged out, she was still hooded, and the strips were mouth were constricting her ability to breathe. the handcuffs were cutting into her wrists as she tried to find some way to wotrk them off. Her mind was racing.. "We're in SERIOUS trouble" she thought to herself.

One of the guards roughly shoved Neville down the steps.

Another carried out Cobalt Leader.

"Move it! We don't have all day!" a guard snapped.

The loading dock was illuminated with the harsh glare of metal halide lamps. The moon was cloaked with storm clouds and it was pouring rain.

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

Alfred looked at the minigun. "Do you think I'd be able to handle something like that?" he asked.

"I wouldn't bother. Your shotgun's good enough," Dr. Zanasiu said, stuffing some shotgun shells in his pocket.

Alfred shrugged and began filling his pockets with shotgun shells.

Hans, Werner and Zachary were grabbing and filling spare magazines and ammunition for their weapons.

"We swiped some live ammo from the practical shooting exercises," Sgt. Masters said.

"So which vehicle?" Dr. Bailey asked. He found a container of pepper spray in a drawer.

"We only have our van, Jayden's car, Neville's car and this van,' the Mongoose Cobalt soldier said.

"Neville's car is out. He has the keys with him,"

"Wait, let's take this van. We'll arouse less suspicion at the Trinity Facility," Alfred said.

Sgt. Masters looked at his watch. "Great, it's like 2045 hours," he said.

"Can anyone translate that?" Dr. Bailey asked.

"8:45 PM."

Zachary looked out the open door. "It's still raining too,"

"All right, so who's got the keys to this thing?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.

Dr. Bailey turned to Dr. Landon. "Micah, how are Redfield's chances of survival?" he asked.

"I could hotwire it, if need be," offered Shelton.

"How do you know how to hotwire a car?" Crota asked.

"When you work for an illegal underground project, you learn a lot of things you might not expect," Shelton retorted. "Plus with all the equipment lying around here from the construction, I won't even have to cross wires or anything."

"No need to hotwire it" Hailey said as she pulled the keys out of her pocket "Although, I don't know how to drive, I would just keep the keys on me is all....Marcus would always do the driving for us"

"I'll drive if you want, I mean, I have driven a van before" Kiara spoke up.

"Alrighty then, but I'm coming with you" Hailey replied back.

"I'll go as well" Aimee added in.

"I think I'll go with Jayden actually" Shakila spoke up as well.

***

The reptiles pushed the three prisoners into the facility as one called an elevator, a well hidden one actually, to which the walls opened up to reveal said elevator.  The reptiles then pushed the three of them inside, stepping into it and pushing a button.

The elevator moved downwards, underground before opening up.  Who had greeted the three of them was none other than Trinity.  She looked at the three of them before nodding to the guards "Bring them this way" she spoke as she turned around.

Subect 19 was standing a little bit away as she glared some at the three prisoners, looking rather unimpressed at the moment "All that time as that stupid competition thing and this is all you could come up with?" she asked Trinity.

"Kain requiers some subjects, and the competition was my best bet....after all, getting the best was the best thing to do" Trinity replied back with a small chuckle.

"Uh, actually guys, about the van....you guys should follow us, I mean, once we get there, I'd need to go in first....cause there are cameras around and well, if Kain or Trinity see you lot entering, well....it might not very well end all that well, so i could shut them off perhaps" Hailey decided to suggest next.

"Well, that does seem like the safer idea then going in guns blazing and not getting that far in the end" Kiara added on, looking to Hailey with a small nod as well.

(OOC - Maybe we should wait for Noname's characters?)

Dr. Zanasiu led Zachary, Dr. Bailey, Alfred, Cobalt Squad, PFC Reynolds, Hans and Werner to their van. Zachary unlocked the door and climbed into the driver's seat. Dr. Zanasiu climbed into the passenger seat. The other climbed into the back.

Sgt. Masters shook off the rain water. "Great, it looks like we all jumped a pool," he said.

"Hey, watch the water droplets!" PFC Reynolds replied.

Zachary started the engine and turned the heat on to dry off their clothing.

Dr. Zanasiu rolled down the window. "Lead the way, Shakila!" he said.

(OOC: That all depends if he is actually going to post in here or not, I mean lately, he hasn't even bothered, so really, I reckon we could just go ahead and he could just catch up how he wants to)

"Me? Uh, Jayden, myself and Shelton are going to be following Hailey....she knows the way after all" Shakila answered back to Dr. Zanasiu as she looked at the rain.

Kiara got into the drivers seat of the van as Hailey got into the passanger's seat followed by Aimee getting into the back of it.

Jayden bought his car around for Shakila and Shelton to be able to get in without getting wet, especially Shakila.

"Hm, at least I get to keep the VIP suit," Shelton mused, fixing his collar as he opened the door for Shakila. "Haven't looked this snazzy in ages."

(OOC: You can assume he gets in the car after Shakila gets in.)

Shakila purred slightly as Shelton had opened the door for her "Why thank you" she mused a bit as she got into the car, looking back to Shelton as she patted the seat next to her, smiling to him.

***

As everyone else was waiting around, Kiara soon drove off with the two girls, following Hailey's directions.

As they drove, Hailey spoke up to Kiara "I have a question I want to ask you, it's about something, well....about what to do if you're in love with someone...."

"That's easy, just tell them how you feel, I mean, you're either going to get a yes or a no answer" Kiara replied back "I'm sorry, but that's how love usually works, they'll either fall for you, or reject you"

Hailey took a small deep breath and asked a second question of Kiara "I should ask them, even if they are my best friend?"

Aimee had indeed, overheard what Hailey had just asked and decided to interupt "Look Hailey, I'm sorry if you're in love with me, but I'm afraid that I don't feel the same way back as you do"

"You mean...." Hailey begun with a little sigh as Aimee just shook her head "Oh..." Hailey added on, feeling even more upset.

"Hailey?" Aimee asked her, looking at her, but getting no answer back.

Shelton smiled, and got into the car as well. As soon as he sat down, he let all his muscles go limp and exhaled slowly. "I'm really glad this whole Schutzhund thing is over," he admitted. "That whole environment was definitely out of my comfort zone."

After a few minutes of keeping quiet, Kayla soon turned to face Aimee properly "You just don't understand what I had been going through, it's just that, I had loved you all this time, but I just never knew on how to tell you was all"

"Look, Hailey, I'm sorry if you got the wrong end of the stick, if you thought that I did love you back, but we're just friends is all" Aimee replied back to her friend.

"Wait, you mean, even after all of what I just told you, you still want to be friends with me? You're not....weirded out by what I had just said?" Hailey asked back, now a bit confused.

"Well of course, I mean, I do know you, I know that you can fall in love with anyone, even if it was me, it doesn't bother me" Aimee reassured her back "But, for future references, I'm not into girls alright? But that doesn't mean you can't ask me on love advice, I mean, I can still give you it and all that sort of stuff" Aimee replied back with a smile to her.

Hailey was already feeling better, for mainly the fact that they were still friends at the very least, even if her heart had just been broken.  She looked to Kiara with a bit of a smile as well, to which Kiara returned the smile back to her.

***

"Yeah, it was indeed, a rather....odd competition" Shakila replied back, smiling some more to Shelton as well "But ah well, I guess I am glad it's over....no more being a hostage for me....."

"I still don't know how the hell that happened," Shelton rubbed his forehead. "The whole contest has kinda blurred together."

He sat up. "Hey, Jayden, where were you during everything that happened?"

"Yeah, confusing too" Shakila replied back as she rubbed the back of her head a little bit "But I have to say this, you were rather good at it all in the end" she told him with a smile as well.

Jayden gave off a light shrug "I was outback, trying to keep what order I could amongst all the chaos before I had to come and save Aimee's life before, if you were actually there, that African-American guy had her at gun point....had to pull the trigger myself and kill him, otherwise, he would've killed Aimee"

"Thanks," Shelton smiled. "Though technically it was my fault you were in the hostage holding zone for Trinity to find in the first place. You deserve some credit too, staying cool and keeping us updated on the situation even when under attack. You're the only reason we were able to reach you three in time."

"Oh, you're just saying that" Shakila joked back some, giving him a smile as well "But in all seriousness, well, you shouldn't really blame yourself for it all, I for one, would rather blame those who didn't tell you the full details on what was going to be going on"

Zachary pulled out after Shakila's car. It was still pouring rain.

"Music?" Zachary asked.

"Why not? It'll pump us up," Spc. Crota said.

Zachary shrugged and turned the radio on. Preliator started playing.

"It's like the DJ knows what we're planning to do."

"Looks like we're repeating the invasion of Pelvanida," Dr. Zanasiu said.

"So what do I do?" Dr. Bailey asked.

"You're coming with us. Your computer hacking skills will be needed."

"So where do you think Trinity Facility is located?" Alfred asked.

"Probably in a remote location or maybe in an industrial area. I think the Oregon Light & Power company has a fusion power plant somewhere outside Culeston."

Outside, the scenery became more and more plain until it was just a highway with only their group of cars and some other travelers.

(OOC: Sorry. Finals are coming up, and I cannot really be here very often. Can someone take Stern for the next few days? When I return, I'll have him and Aydin add on to the plot in a more serious way. And yes, Stern should be or should have been in the car with Shakila.)

(OOC - I will take Stern for the next few days or until Noname requests him back. I assume Aydin to be in the same car as Shakila and Cpl. Stern.)

Cpl. Stern looked at Shakila as he rain kept pouring down. "We don't know what the Trinity Facility is like so we'd best keep on guard," he said.

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

Alfred turned to Dr. Landon. "I swear if I find Trinity, I will kill her with my bare hands," he growled, tensing up his muscles and accidentally crushing the empty can of seltzer he was drinking. The same muscles that gave Alfred the strength to tear a deeply embedded pole out of the ground gave him the strength to crush a non-bovid skull with his bare hands.

Sgt. Masters was overrun with nervousness as the van headed to the Trinity Facility. Yes, he had trained for building clearing before but had never done the real thing before and to top it off, the group that he was going to be with included two FBI agents, three soldiers (one of whom was a traitorous Pelvanida guard who "volunteered" to help), a construction worker, a Pelvanida biologist with his assistant, two former Pelvanida control room administrators, a former terrorist with his son (who worked at Pelvanida as a researcher's assistant), a Vulpine girl with robotic arms, a base doctor from Pelvanida, a defector from Trinity Facility, a "most wanted" computer hacker. This was almost too much for him to take. He pulled out a cigarette along with a lighter when Zachary saw him in the rear view mirror.

"Sgt. Masters, there will be no smoking around us!" Zachary said!

Sgt. Masters reluctantly put his cigarette and lighter away.  

"In any case guys, I'm not sure if we should attempt to destroy Trinity Facility or simply rescue Neville, Cobalt Leader and Aisha," Dr. Bailey said.

"Destroying Trinity Facility is the best bet but the question is can we do it without being incredibly obvious and more importantly without killing ourselves?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.
