Part 1: The Black Hole
Chapter One: The Umbrella Playground
Two Weeks after the incident involved in Arclay and Hybrid City…
Umbrella had quickly taken over most of the cities in the western regions of the United States.
Even after being shunned by the powers of the country along with the citizens, Umbrella's influential power was still very strong. Military powers began joining up with them, turning everyone against everyone. This was turning into another civil war.
As most groups opposed Umbrella, the same doubted the United States government; their reasons of the U.S. turning their back on the corporation after it brought the nation to an even greater power.
The others blamed Umbrella for the horrid experiments which were allowed and the outbreaks which instigated in three cities. Scrapeson City was blown off the map. The two last remaining cities were put on lockdown, secured from the public for military reasons.
Thus the story begins…
Aboard a military transport plane, Tange Roland and Henry Cotton, known as Surge were gearing up to make the drop. Cypher and his men had located Osiris' arrival through satellite. If that was where he was, Orchid was there.
Tange slung an M4 assault rifle behind his back while grabbing two silenced 9mm pistols. Surge was busy eyeing the scope on his sniper rifle before looking at him, "You nervous?"
Grabbing a double-bladed knife, Tange shook his head, "Not yet. But she better be there."
"Damn straight. I would hate to go deep within enemy territory just to find nothing."
"You boys almost ready, now?" The pilot said through intercom, "Cause, from what I'm getting our boys can't even get through the walls."
Tange zipped his vest while pressing the intercom, "We're going to have to make the drop somewhere else."
Surge nearly dropped a round of ammo and looked at him, "We're not dropping right into the playground are we?"
"I'm siding with Mr. Cotton. I also have my reasons. Both of you will get shot out of the sky when they see those chutes open. Secondly, if I wanted to lower the plane so that doesn't happen well end up as a metal scrape heap with three bodies well done. Those bitches have tank busters down there."
Tange hit the button again, "Here's what we're doing. You turn the goddamn plane around after circling around the base, fly low enough opening the cargo doors and drop us off. That gives you a clearer shot towards base without turning around."
"Fine. But I'm going to file a report if I make it out alive."
Tange grabbed his parachute and strapped it on as Surge finished up gathering his weapons. "Tange, this is suicide. There's no way in hell that pilot is going to survive. It's either him or all of us."
Throwing him a parachute, Tange looked at him, "How far are you willing to go to save her?"
"Far," Surge replied, "I suppose. I'll go through hell just to save Orchid."
"Get ready, we're going down."
"Don't take what you said for granted," Tange said, "You don't want to do what I did; end up losing the one's you care about."
Tange turned away, approaching the controls to the cargo door. Through the walls and louder then the droning of the plane's engines, he could already hear the muffled explosions below. He simply ignored it, pressing the open button and turned around to face Surge who just finished hitching on his chute.
Boom! The hold rocked violently knocking both of them off their feet.
"We lost an engine! Those bastards are onto us like flies to bullshit!"
Tange got to his feet and looked out the back to see that the pilot had gotten the plane low enough for them to jump. "Surge, this is it! Get ready! He said shouting over the roaring of the air, explosions, and engines at the same time.
More explosions rocked the hold, this time taking out a side of the plane.
"Go! I can'thold the plane at this level forever! I'mjust barelyholding this bitch up with three engines."
Tange acknowledged to that and ran towards the hold and leapt off it and immediately pulled the lever to his chute after seeing that he wasn't that far from the ground.
He looked up at the sky and spotted the plane now gaining altitude, now with two destroyed engines, anda smoking one. Surge your ass better be here too when I hit the ground.
Putt! Putt! Putt! Tange looked up at his chute seeing bullet holes puncturing through the canopy. Looking down at the ground, he figured he wasn't too far to detach himself.
He unbuckled the harness and fell about fifteen feet before making contact with the ground. Unhooking the M4 from his back he got into a crouch and turned his body one-hundred eighty degrees while firing at Umbrella soldiers.
There was still no Surge, damn you! Tange dropped an empty clip while fishing for another in his vest and quickly ejected a fresh one in the M4. He cocked the hammer and fired wildly again at another group of soldiers. The group of three had no time to return fire, as they were shot down and dead before they hit the ground.
Tange turned around to finally see Surge on the ground, coming towards him. "It's about time."
"Don't mention it." Surge replied arming his weapon, "Where too?"
Putting his guard down, he rolled up his sleeve to reveal a black watch underneath. Tange simply pressed one of the two switches and holographic map was displayed less then a centimeter above the watch. "Okay. We are here," he said pointing at two red dots, "And I guess we should just continue down the street."
"That's it?" Surge said, "That's all?"
"The street is three and a half miles long," Tange said rolling his sleeve back down, "Plus, we have an army awaiting us, blockades of debris, and everything that will try to stop and kill us."
Deep below the ground they were all safe. Nothing was going to come through the blast doors. General Victor Nightingale stood in the control room watching the screens when the alarms went off.
His massive nine feet tall muscular frame turned around to face the operators, "What do we have now?" He said in a deep growling voice.
"Two soldiers have justtouched down in sector C5. What are your orders, sir?"
Nightingale smiled and rubbed his hands together, "Ah, Mr. Roland, and my old student, Henry Cotton. Yes… please Osiris by killing them."
Nightingale walked out of the control room and into the long hexagon shaped hallway. Outside, awaited two of the much more up-to-date tyrants; the T-204's. Both super soldiers looked at him as he stared back, "Let's go."
Surge looked up at the three to four story buildings as gun emplacements suddenly rose from them and aimed downwards towards both of them.
"Fuck-"
Boom-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo- Surge kicked off the ground into the building opposite of him as jumping chunks of asphalt followed closely behind him. He leapt over a counterand the firing stopped.
-Boom-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo- The firing commenced again and Surge pinned himself against the counter when again it stopped-
-and in came Tange. "Oh, shit! That was close."
"We're right under it." Surge said pointing up at the ceiling.
Tange got up and edged towards a staircase leading up. Surge got up as well and followed when he watched as Tange fire his M4. He then stopped and the sound of two bodies thumped on the floor from above.
Surge followed after Tange and passed him as he went to inspect a room to the right. He then quickly wondered up the next stairway when a grenade landed at his feet. Damn! He picked it up and tossed it back up-
-Boom! Chunks of guts and bone flew outwards over the railing from above and began raining down to the ground. Surge continued up to where the blast was to find a pile of smoldering carcass before him.
Ratatataaa! Gunfire then came through the door, beyond from where he stood, and Surge pinned himself against the wall as he did to the counter. "Tange! I need some help!"
He looked over the railing to find Tange running up the stairs and pinned himself back against the wall again as more gunfire came through.
Tange then put his back to the wall as he made it up to Surge and took out a grenade, pulling the pin. He then got up from his place and threw the grenade through the doorway and quickly crouched behind the wall.
Boom! Surge quickly got up as did Tange and they both went through the door suddenly feeling the wave of fresh air washed over them. That feeling was soon over when they both began firing at soldiers who were all perched on the roof.
Surge spotted the gun emplacement as he jumped through the ground, avoiding the gunfire. He got back to his feet and aimed at a soldier firing at Tange and pulled the trigger. Then he quickly turned around facing a group of three behind a drum barrel.
He pitied them and fired at the barrel which exploded, engulfing the three in fire. Surge then fired at them to quickly end their painful suffering.
The firing then stopped seconds later, both Surge and Tange, still on their feet were scanning the roof for any hiders. "I think that's all."
Tange then pointed at the gun emplacement and then across the street where another was as well. "Get to the turret and take that building down!"
Surge did as he was told and ran past Tange and hopped into the massive turret. The inside was more like the inside of a fighter jet. Surge grabbed the controls and turned the turret left. He peered through the window seeing two large cannons stretching out from the right and left of him, "Oh, shit. I bet this thing was shooting at the plane."
He stopped rotating the turret when he had the building in his crosshairs and pulled back on the trigger-
-Boom-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo- Surge rocked in his seat as the turret fired at the building from across. The building didn't last long as the whole front end of the structure smashed inward by the blast of the turret.
Surge then let go of the trigger and watched the caved in building collapse to the ground in a pile of rubble.
Nightingale rubbed his hands together as he watched the two fighters run through the empty streets of the battle damaged city by surveillance. "Good….. good. Let them come. I'll deal with you two myself."
"Into the tank!" Surge shouted as he pulled open the hatch of a tank. Bullets began ricocheting of the armored hull as he made his way in.
Tange fired his pistol randomly to the direction of the gunfire as he made his way towards the tank.
He stopped mid run and reloaded his weapon-
Clink! Clink, clink, clink…. Tange looked at his feet spotting a grenade roll next to his feet. "Oh, not good." He looked away and took three running steps before the capsule detonated sending him through the air.
Landing on his side he quickly recovered from the blast and climbed into the tank where Surge closed the hatch, "Let's get this fucker into gear!"
"Intruder alert! Intruder alert!" went the intercom systems as red sirens about the massive bunker went off startling Nightingale. He grabbed hold of the intercom, "What's the situation!"
"The bunker has been breached. The Army is plowing their way in here! Your orders sir!"
"Kill them." He growled, throwing the intercom mike aside. He got up from his feet and took a last glace at the surveillance monitors seeing a tank plowing its way through the streets. Nightingale laughed, "Yes… come to me, my prey."
He left the room, with his tyrants silently following him. Entering the massive hall, the main door just ahead of him exploded and in came soldiers quickly entering and pointing the red beads on their weapons at him.
"Don't move!" One of the soldiers shouted, stepping forward.
Nightingale smiled, "Kids playing with guns, how sweet."
"You have no advantage General Nightingale! Now, stand down!"
"Do I?" He hissed. He quickly flung his massive coat back and quickly pulled a two bladed sword out and launched it at the group. Before even reacting to the attack, the group was cut down, each soldier now have their size as the boomerang like sword disemboweled them.
The double-ended sword flung its way back to him and Nightingale caught and slung it back into his coat. "Amateurs," he said to the T-204's.
He then turned back to the destroyed doorway and walked through it while stepping on the intestines of the group, "It was a pleasure boys, but never underestimate a general next time."
He continued walking until he came to an elevator which would take him to the surface of the bunker. Before even calling for the lift, the doors opened and inside were two soldiers. Nightingale grabbed his blade and ran it throught the gut of one.
The other soldier attempted to knock him with his rifle but with his free hand punched him in the face. He heard the grisly crunch of bone upon impact where the force of his hand caused the soldier's head to explode.
Bringing his attention back the impaled soldier in the air, he pulled the sword out of him and quicklycaught him by the neck. He laughed at how weak and stupid the army was to send in a bunch of amateurs to catch him.
Not sparing a second, he slammed the soldier into the floor, making his knees to go into his hip.
Nightingale looked down at the flattened body and laughed as it reminded him of what cartoon characters looked like when flattened by an object. He then entered the lift and the doors closed.
"There's the entrance to the underground!" Surge shouted, pointing at the holographic map on his wrist.
"The blast doors are closed." Tange said.
Surge rolled his eyes, "Take the wheel!" He got out of his seat and manned the large turret and set its long barrel at the large doors. "You do know that we are in a tank?"
"Thanks for reminding me!" Tange replied, "Now take that door down!"
With the barrel already aimed at the doors, Surge fired.
