Darwin's Soldiers: Disruptive Selection

While the women had left to the roof, Azrael dispatched some monsters that came up the floors. He had not noticed the third until he joined them all on the roof. He paused at the newcomer before saying, "Now that we're all here..." He pulled a canister out and pulled the pin, then tossed it aside. It began to emit a red smoke...

----------

The guard waited until he saw the monster's shadow before he fired again at her, shattering the window glass...

----------

The highway patrol helicopter began to search for a red smoke marker...

----------

Aydin and his 'escorts' would soon arrive at the control room. They have gotten word that the second transport chopper is coming to their base instead of Crimson Base...

----------

Vic paused at what Aimee said, apparently sure she would not truly listen to reason. "I don't have authority over you, so I can't tell you what you can do. You can either wait until we land so you could go back out there..." he paused again to pull down a lever on the side of the Chinook, opening the back ramp. The ground swept below them as they flew. "Or you could get out now. But I will NOT sacrifice my friends for your journey for only two people..."

Aimee looked to the ramp that had opened up "It's only for Hailey, you do realize that don't you? Trinity's the one that's going to die...." she snarled some more before getting up "But if you wont waste time to help me out with what I need...." she begun as she walked towards the edge of the ramp. She paused for a moment "Tell Aydin I'll be back sometime....I don't know when...." she spoke as she stepped back some before rushing forward and actualy jumped off the helicopter as it continued to fly on, to which she rolled as she hit the ground before stumbling to her feet, dusting herself off, to which she turned back to the helicopter as it continued to fly onwards.

Subject 19 growled some more as she was shot at, to which she grabbed the window and peered inside, taking a look around before her eyes came upon the guard in the area as she grinned "Well, well, well....you're still alive....thought you would be dead by now...." she chuckled as she climbed in through the window and stood up straight, criking her neck some as well

"What do you mean the copter's making an emergency stop?" Aydin gasped. "Something's the matter!"

As soon as he saw the control room, he raced ahead of his escort and burst in. "Open a line to the chopper," he ordered the comm officer. "Ask if there's a Vulpine female on board!"

The convoy rolled into the parking lot of the Idaho Prison. O'Neill's voice came over the thought network.

<Welcome to the Idaho Interminable Penitentiary, or the IIP. A ward has been recommissioned to serve as temporary quarters for all of you, and the escorts outside will take you first to get processed into the system, then to your assigned quarters. Please avoid the other wards, as they still contain prisoners and will not take kindly to your presence. We are taking measures to solve this issue by bumping them to the top of the conversion list.>

"What is he talking about, near the end?" asked the driver.

"The 'Interminable' in the title means that everyone here is serving a life sentence," explained Ajax. "That means we can convert them into Dragonstorm experiments without anyone finding out or wondering where they went. The mental patients are the easiest, they don't even put up a fight."

--------

The Dhole raised an eyebrow. "A smoke signal, to alert a copter? You beat me, I was going to do roughly the same thing." she put the steel wool and battery back in separate pockets.

Meanwhile, Trinity and Hailey had both arrived at the base at the same time as the others had arrived. Trinity walked down one of the hallways with Hailey following her as she approached one of the wardens "Have the other convoys arrived?"

"Yes ma'am, they're out in the parking lot as we are speaking" the warden replied back.

Trinity didn't answer back as she motioned for Hailey to follow her as the two of them made their way towards the parking lot in order to meet up with those who had just arrived.

As she stepped outside with Hailey whom was still with her, Trinity waited for the group to step out of their vehicles in question before deciding to address each of them "I do appologize for this encounter, however, I do need one question answered....as my visit here isn't to be long, I do need to know a few things, one is on who of you lot, is suppose to be in charge around here....I would need to speak with them more privatly, concerning the Lab 101 incident that has not long ago, occured"

Shelton was just getting out of the lead SUV when he overheard Ajax, who'd been the first out, tell Trinity, "That'd be Dr. Simpson, right there. Technically, we're the same rank, but he did all the talking, and is primarily responsible for our escape."

Shelton was astounded to see Trinity again. He was just about to blurt out 'You're dead!' but managed to control himself enough to ask the more neutral, "Haven't we met before?"

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #2806 on:** August 23, 2010, 10:11:08 PM

Breathtaker was next to exit, but he was confronted by a squad of armed guards. "Project Breathtaker," one guard started. "You are to come with us. You don't have an option..." Breathtaker clenched his fist, but he complied, and he was escorted away from the scientists...

----------

Ivory Leader, named Fox, placed his hand on his gun, when the host officer raised his hand to stop him.

"Give me a moment, I have them on the line," the comm pilot responded. "Echo 2, Echo 2, I have you on radar now. Over."

"10-4, we are due to arrive in half-hour. Over"

"10-4, Echo 2. What's your status on the cargo? Over."

"We have six live passengers and one deceased one. We had one more, but she bailed mid-flight. Over."

"Echo 2. Is there a vulpine on board? Over."

"10-4, but she was the one who bailed. Over."

"Echo 2. Where did she drop? Over."

"Just north of the Oregon/California border, near the Idaho border. Over."

"10-4, Echo 2. See you when you get here. Over."

"10-4, over and out."

"Now you got your answers..." Fox said.

----------

Vic closed the ramp and sat back down, looking at his teammates. Snow changed her seat and sat next to him.

"We know, sir," Ice said. "She still doesn't get the whole picture. We're at war here. There's a lot more at stake than one person who may already be dead or fighting on the wrong side."

----------

Julia Race stood out her office window, watching the arriving convoy. Then, her assistant entered.

"Ms Race? The convoy has arrived. Trinity is here, too..."

"Good. Triple the guard, and have all defenses on standby. This base will NOT be breached..."

"Yes ma'am..."

MrDrake · **Reply #2807 on:** August 23, 2010, 11:18:54 PM

"I believe we have Dr. Simpson, but formalities shall have to wait, follow me if you please" Trinity told Shelton as she turned around and started to walk off. Hailey in turn, waited until Shelton started to walk before walking off after the two of them.

***

In front of one of the cameras at the Idaho Prison, Viper had appeared, this was her next target, but of course, scouting wasn't her strongest suit as she had no clue that a security camera was trailing her. Well, that was until she looked at it "Ah crap...." she muttered and vanished. Moments later, she reappeared in the same place with some duct tape and just practically, taped up the lense of the security camera before walking to the edge of the building she was on, crouching down and looked all over to prison from where she was crouched, in order to get a proper look of the area.

"This isn't a Dragonstorm base....it's just a stupid prison...." Viper muttered to herself.

***

Meanwhile, Aimee was already starting to make her way towards the Idaho/Oregon border, grumbling to herself in the prcoess. She honestly had no clue on where this prison was, so she was more or less taking a random guess in which direction the base was suppose to be in at the moment.

Dr. Kerzach exited the SUV and saluted. "Dr. Bradley Gallo reporting for duty!" he said to Trinity and her two Anaconda guards before following them deeper into the facility.

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

Back in the ruins of Lab 101, a piece of heavy steel rubble shifted, revealing Atticus Aedelwulf. The Czechoslovakian Wolfdog's silver-grey fur was matted with soot, dust and blood. His powerful arms were replaced with once gleaming steel limbs. The steel arms were now a dull grey thanks to the damage it had incurred in the explosion. His amber eyes were replaced with distinctly artificial eyes that glowed a soft red color like hot coals.

He spotted Roux, Neku and Cale.

"Cale, Neku, I had never thought I'd see you again," he said. He grabbed a steel pipe to steady himself and wound up crushing it.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2809 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:15:36 AM

Shelton followed after Trinity, with a sideways look at Hailey. He wished he could somehow ask her what she was doing here, but he couldn't risk blowing his cover.

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

"WHAT?!?!?" exclaimed Aydin. He tried to grab the intercom. "She bailed out? What the f*** did she do that for? Put them back on the line!"

----------

"I like you," the Dhole nodded approvingly at Azreal. "You get things done. Like Dr. Zanasiu. I miss being on his team," she added wistfully.

(OOC: Drake, does Hailey look any different? And Mirumoto, I don't expect you to comply with everything Aydin says. Feel free to decide when he's crossed the line, and deny him whatever you like. He'll just have to deal

)

MrDrake · **Reply #2810 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:42:28 AM

(OOC: Good question there, and to answer said question, yes, she does actually, something I've been thinking about....taking on more of a Gothic-like look this time round. If you've played Brutal Legend and know about Ophelia and what happened with her and her little makeover....something along those lines you know, well, just Hailey's face that is

)

Hailey in question, looked different than when Shelton would've last seen her. The girl head fur, well, the front part of it was now dyed black, as well as, what seemed to be more black-like makeup on around her eyes at the very least. Her clothes were different as well. She wore, what was a trenchcoat over her short and pants. The reason for that was rather simply, to compensate for her powers.

As the small group walked down the hallway, Trinity entered a room and once both Shelton and Aimee were inside, the door was closed as Trinity looked over to Shelton by that point "Now, I understand that you and your friends there managed to escape Lab 101 before it went up in smoke, however, were you also aware that in the process, data was stollen from the computers there? Data that I myself, would rather not allow to get into the wrong hands, it contains rather....secure information, however, I have done my best to keep said files confidential"

She paused for a moment as she took a seat at the desk, allowing Shelton to also take a seat as well before continuing on "I for one, was unable to retrieve said data, especially since, all I know was that the data was transfeered onto some removeable media instead of a computer....which is what I require your assistance with, is finding out where our assulters are planning on striking next, as you should very well know that we can not afford to loose another facility" she again paused "However, even if we loose more facilities, I still have one trump card available at my disposal" she spoke, glancing to Hailey.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2811 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:57:54 AM

"Her?" Shelton glanced curiously at Hailey. "I recall she was among those who attacked your facility, but she didn't seen to have any real abilities or powers. In fact, I recall she didn't do much at all. I mean, she could hold her own, granted, but she's not exactly a trump card."

MrDrake · **Reply #2812 on:** August 24, 2010, 06:02:39 AM

Trinity only gave off a chuckle back "My, you still have much to learn, much has already happened since then....show him Hailey" she ordered.

Hailey did not nod back, but still obeyed as her right hand started to catch on fire followed by her left hand as it soon spread to all over her body. As that happened, the room in turn started to get hotter as Hailey was causing her powers to heat up still.

Trinity put a hand up in order to get Hailey to stop what she was doing, to which Hailey obliged and stopped, her clothes were still intact "However, she is not a trump card, I have other plans for her, no, my trump card is much, much more dangerous.....Drake is sorting it out as we speak....it should be online in due time" she chuckled a bit darkly.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2813 on:** August 24, 2010, 06:19:37 AM

Shelton drew back in his chair as Hailey was engulfed in flame. "What...what did you do to her?" he stammered, as she silently extinguished herself. "She wasn't like that back at the Trinity Facility! Is the original still alive in there somehwere?"

MrDrake · **Reply #2814 on:** August 24, 2010, 06:25:37 AM

Trinity just chuckled rather darkly yet again "Oh, I didn't do much to her, just made her better....gave her the power of pyrokenesis" she then looked to Shelton once again "And do not worry my dear, she is loyal to me....she has no choice in the matter after all...." she smirked some.

She paused for a moment "You seem to be rather worried about that....almost as if you....care for her...."

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2815 on:** August 24, 2010, 03:43:40 PM

"It's not that," Shelton added hastily. "I just...uh......If the process keeps the mind intact, we could reverse-engineer it to power up our loyal foot soldiers, so they could compete with the rogue experiments on an even footing."

Shelton decided it was time to quit while he was ahead. He stood up. "I'll put some of my best men to work on locating your data, if its still retrievable at all. With your permission, I'm exhausted from the battle I just survived, and would like to register myself with Dr. Race and then get some rest."

MrDrake · **Reply #2816 on:** August 24, 2010, 04:36:13 PM

Trinity gave him a little nod back "Very well then, Hailey, would you mind escorting him out for me?" she asked as Hailey did just that, showing him to the door before Trinity added in one last thing "Ah yes, also, before it passes my mind completely, when you do have time that is, I rewquire some information on a fellow named Gustave....with some foriegn last name, if he is still here, or if he is dead....or of course, if he's joined in with that rouge group"

She nodded to him one final time before Hailey escorted Shelton out of the room and stood there, just looking at him with her mindless eyes as if to just watch his movements.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2817 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:37:18 PM

Shelton waited until the door had shut behind him to turn to Hailey. "Excuse me?" he asked Hailey in a low voice. "What was your name again?"

He knew that Hailey would probably report this conversation to Trinity, and so he didn't forgo his Dragonstorm alias. But he needed to find out if Hailey was still alive, in her body somewhere.

MrDrake · **Reply #2818 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:49:47 PM

Hailey just looked at Shelton, silent still. Yet, she opened her mouth, but the problem was, no words came out, which only lasted for a second or so before she remained silent once again.

Something had indeed, gone wrong with her, but what that was, it was rather difficult to pinpoint without any word of it, and it seemed like Hailey wasn't about to speak anytime soon.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #2819 on:** August 24, 2010, 05:54:26 PM

Shelton knew it was time to leave, but just to cover his alibi if Trinity finds out about this conversation, decided to ask one last question: "You can just nod or shake your head then: this process you've undergone, if we subjected prisoners to it, would they become more or less useful than they are now?"
