The Sounds of The Iron Lung
Prologue: The Death of Doctor Avian
"EMEGRENCY EMERGENCY! THERE HAS BEEN A BREACH IN SECTOR 8!" A loud blare of a siren went throughout the entire facility, the sound of people fleeing the Lab sounds like a stampede. While Big Band decides to head in with the few who will fight off whatever broke into Lab Eight. "Alright, I want everyone to check each sector and block of all the entrances to make sure the perpetrator doesn't get out. I'll take Sector Eight, Hive you take sector Seven through Five. Big Band I want you to take Four through Two. Peacock I...where's Peacock?!" Leduc Exclaimed. Big Band Responded "She said she was out hunting the Skullgirl!" Leduc Sighed "Right when we needed her, Alright Big Band I'm counting on you to take on sector Four through One alright?" Big Band nodded. "Alright everyone, move out!" Said Leduc as everyone went to their designated Sectors. Big Band raced over to Sector 4 as he saw Doctor Avian cornered by a strange figure.
Before Big Band could do anything Peacock burst out of nowhere to fight off whatever this thing was. Big Band ran over to Doctor Avian as Peacock was still trying to stop the monster. "Avian are you still alive?" Big Band asked as he looked at Doctor Avian who was cut up and bleeding out. "Ben, is that you? I thought you would have left the Lab already." He responded. "Listen, Avian we need to get you out of here there isn't much-" But before Big Band was finished talking the monster hit him in the back with the huge wheel of metal it had on its back. Big Band was knocked back on the wall and then whacked the monster with a giant jingle club. As the monster was thrown from the force of the club Peacock had stabbed it with a sword she had in her revolver. While Big Band was trying to get up from the blown he was given Peacock rushed to Doctor Avian's side. "Pactrica.." "Doctor Avian, who did this to you!?" Peacock was all choked up as she tried to help Avian.
Avian responded in a weak voice "Lab Zero...Valentine...betrayed us. She... let The Skullgirl in." Peacock was baffled at the news she was given. "Which way did they go?!" Avian let out a small sigh "I'm...not sure...The only thing I remember is...having myself beaten by whatever that monster was." Big Band spoke out "Listen we need to get you to a hospital, your bleeding out." Avian retaliated "No Ben...it's too late for me...But I know Peacock, you and all the others...can defeat the Skullgi-" Avian let out a quiet moan before he stoped. "He's gone boss" Tommy said as he looked over the whole ordeal. Peacock looked as if she was about to break down "Guys...Pissing me off is the last thing those idoits'll ever make!" Big Band tried to comfort Peacock "Listen, Peacock we don't know where they went or who even did this. We can't do anything right now."
Peacock pushed Big Band away "No, I'll find a way! I'll make sure those morons regret the day they messed with me! I'll...I'll!" Peacock broke down right there, and cried. Big Band looked over her and felt like he was about to break down too, he held it all in and decided to comfort Peacock as this was all he could do.
