Genetic Children-Log 31- And you though I was dead....
#29 of Genetic Children
Niel and Korm cause mayhem.
Niel Flew out of the doors of the elevator less than half a second after the doors opened, he perfromed a perfect army roll, spun to his feet and pulled up his pistol... "You are surrounded! Place your weapon on the ground, lay face down and put your hands behind your head." "FFFFFFFFFFFFF" Niel threw his pistol to the ground and sunk to his knees. Niel slumped all the way forward hitting the dirt and laced his fingers behind his head. Then.... "Holy shit! That was hardcore Niel!" Korm said as the huge explosion raged on. The gas pipes had detonated all right, the ground was writhing around like a bunch of snakes. "Here we go!" Niel yelled. Korm slammed the car into reverse and hammered it backwards all the way to the shaft while watching the shock and awe in front of him. He knew that this Lab like the others would be reinforced so while the explosions would only do minor damage, man did it look cool. And boy did the enemy reinforce their front guards. "Stop Korm!" They had reached the shaft and jumped out, they grabbed all their weapons and as a parting gift, Niel cut the seat belts off, one he tied the steering wheel straight with, and the other he stuffed in his bag. Then he picked up a rock jammed it on the accelerator and watched the RST-V fly back towards the base.... "A little distraction to go with the other, uhh little one." He grinned and jumped into the darkness with Korm following him down the shaft.
"Uhh Uhh UHGNGNG HARDERRRR!" Emu awoke groggily and panned her head around. "Goddamn SBS and their lunchtime pornos" She reached up and flicked the off button on her remote before surveying her surroundings. She was in a hospital bed, but she wasn't restrained at all and the building didn't feel familiar, she looked at the windows but they had been blacked out and over by the door she could hear and see people walking around, she also saw a small magnetic keypad with a card scanner on her door. While noone was in the room, she moved her legs to the edge of the bed and slipped out of bed. "Uhh. Fuck." She fell straight to the ground and hit her elbows on the bed rail on the way down. beep beep Someone scanned a card and pushed the door open... she rolled as best she could under the bed to try to get away, but her body wasn't working properly. "Miss? Miss? Can you tell us your name please?" The questions didn't register to Emu, she was trying to get further under the bed. "Orderly! I need help in here!" The man called in a larger man who pushed the bed aside and lifted Emu gently to her feet, there at perfect eye height, she was staring straight in the face of the Director. But this wasn't the Lab and he didn't seem right to her. "Miss, we found you just outside of Oondatta on the side of the road you had a three bullet wounds to your chest and no ID, we are here to help you." Emu relaxed just enough that the orderly relaxed his grip, then she struck. She stood up with all the strength she could muster and slammed her head into the guys nose, he went down faster than a sack of rocks she felt her head split a little and some blood start to flow, the director backed up against the wall and hit a small box on his belt. Emu assumed he was summoning more men and left. She walked past the not-right-Director grabbed his card and left. What she saw outside terrified her more than anything. The T.V in the hospital waiting room drew her eyes. "This afternoon is a sad day for Australia," the news reporter went on "the massive bushfires here in south australia and victoria have killed more than 75 people and this day will come to be known as Ash Wednesday, more to follow as we see out reporters in the field." Emu slumped hard to the floor and had one thought before passing out as the blood from her head washed over her face, the ash wednesday fires were in 1983....
Niel and Korm hit the bottom of the shaft and quickly split to each side, Niel facing down the tunnel towards the base, Korm facing away. "Ok follow me, don't shoot unless I say." Niel motioned to move forward and Korm obliged. As the two men stalked slowly down the dark tunnel they heard gunfire ahead, maybe the advance teams weren't all dead? Niel picked up the pace and jogged out into an open area like a transfer station. They could smell the burnt earth and gas seeping through the roof and the gunfire up ahead was getting lounder with each step they took forward. Just ahead there was a large stack of boxes that Korm and Niel ducked behind. "Korm, you stay here I'll check this out." Niel whispered, then he motioned with his hand which way he would be going. Korm watched peeking out from behind the box as Niel darted from shadow to shadow. He could see several men all facing towards the base and assumed these were the assault team. As Niel got closer he heard some chatter from one of the men. "Oni zaperli mesto vniz tugo, my pytayemsya proniknut' bossa." Damn. Russians. Niel tried to backtrack slowly, he made it halfway before he slipped and fell and made more noise than the whole gas explosion...or so it seemed. During their rush to leave the Lab, before they left the armoury Korm had grabbed a few things, a couple of really helpful items... "Niel roll away!" The guards started to turn as Korm pulled the pins from 3 flash grenades and threw them all straight into the faces of the russians. The six russians all flew around like bowling pins, scattering in every direction. Korm brought up his avb 7.62 rifle, he dropped his clip out and smacked in a clip with a red ring around the bottom. The tunnel came alive with glorious light. As Korm's bullets smacked into his targets the tips crumbled in and ignited the HEIAP rounds, the sabots on the 7.62mm rounds slipped away and the bullets exploded inside the russians. Korm sprayed his rifle left and right across his view decimating the soldiers until his clip went dry and Niel pushed his gun down. "You got 'em buddy. Time to get that bastard Wade."
