Awakening Of The Slumbering Dragon

Within a secured room deep within a secret lab located in Japan underground, a large cylinder sat in the middle of the room, the glass surface is caked in frost while at the very top written in bold red letters read, "cryo tube 2244", what is contained within is unknown.

At the far side of the wall behind the cryo tube sat a panel that melted into the steel wall, neither lights blink from the panel nor any sound of power; it sat there dead like the room while dust slowly covered its surface, like a shadow silence rule this room.

All that changed when part of the wall on the far left side of the cryo tube exploded, part of the wall caves in filling the room with blinding light and smoke, slowly the choking smoke disappears from the room.

One heavily armed man wearing a full military jacket with the sleeves cut off has a few grenades tucked into individual holsters for them, a knife hung on the left side of his chest, on his combat trousers a pistol is holstered, his left boot has a dagger slipped in.

Bearing an assault rifle he walks in, the man face's brown eyes look left to right his rifle following the movement of his eyes, his short cropped black hair is contains derbies of the wall he just walked through.

Moments past as he scan the room for any dangers that might pose to him, finally he calls out, "clear," from behind came eight more men armed similar same as the first.

One of them bearing no grenades or a pistol walk to the console that's at part of the wall, "I found our target," he shouts back to the others, already they have made a defensive formation round the breach so they won't be attacked while they carrying out their task.

The man standing at the panel crouched down and pull something underneath, the console hummed with power from his actions, "powers back online," he informs them.

Setting the rifle down he began to type a serious of commands into the keyboard, "how long will it take?" the leader shouts, he can be easily distinguish to be the leader from the red shoulder guard and battle scar adoring his face, "five minutes," is the reply.

Sounds can be heard some far off place, the sound not even remotely human, "you have two minutes before we're swarmed by those monsters," barks the leader.

Doubling his effort the man at the panel began to tap away more quickly than before, the screen in front of him flash multiple screens as he speed through them.

Slowly data began to run down the screen of instructions; on the top right hand side the words flashing in red "reanimating subject 2244" appeared like a warning.

The screen froze and shift to a diagram of the subject, "I'm in the reanimation process, it will take at least two minutes," the leader grunts in acknowledgement as the sound they heard moments ago seem closer.

One of them kept his eye on the far off corridor, he lifted his hand to the ear piece plugged into his ear that allows him to speak into the comm. net, "leader one we have linked up with the target and beginning extraction over."

A few moments passed before he receive a reply from the female voice of his commander, "good job team star," he allowed himself a brief smile for her saying that, "make sure you bring the target back alive," he didn't need to be reminded of the importance of this mission.

The others nodded knowing their priority, "will do mam," one of them spoke with no disrespect for their commanding leader, "use the route we plotted for your exit I have team Malcolm standing by to assists."

The leader joined in the radio, "no disrespect mam but why couldn't we have those two come with us?" one of the men added his comment, "yeah those two would had felt right at home here killing these things."

One of them shot a warning to him of saying such a thing about the two, "if they where here he would had made you eat your words with your tongue and she would had redecorated your privates as ear rings for you," their leader tells him.

The man shivers in fear knowing that they would, "anyway you know as well as I do I had asked, but they had made it clear they would be more suited in covering us once we get back to the city," she spoke with some regret not having persuaded those two to follow on this operation.

The man at the panels watch a model of a human appear with skin of blue, points began to appear round model as it rotates on the screen, information flash through the model through various points, "the subject will probably be asleep for another half an hour once we get him out of the cryo tube," his superior didn't like what he said, "you know as well as I do that we DON'T have a few minute!"

The model stop spinning and remain still, then a low hum sounded as the chamber is fed power from some known source, slowly the chamber bottom began to lit up as the lights turn on.

The top cryo tube glass began to brighten as well as the various pumps carry out their orders to bring the subject back to life.

The very surface of the glass began to heat up rapidly, the frost melted slowly at first, with bits of it falling away, as the process sped up dramatically, all frost melted away instantly.

Within the chamber, green liquid filled it, nothing could be seen, "it's beginning to flush out the freezing gels," one of the men who been watching the corridor spotted rapid movement, "incoming!" he shouts as he let his rifle fire.

The other men join in as they all joined with the man at shooting the rapidly moving target.

The man at the panel watch it, "damn it the process needs a minute to slowly flush it out," the leader hearing this runs to the tube, "then force eject damn it!" tapping away at the panel the screen flash "WARNING," in red letters.

With no other choice he went through the procedure and forces eject the subject.

Hissing loudly the glass chamber slid open, the green liquid spilled out onto the floor, from the liquid also came a man, he hit the floor and remain motionless, "he won't be up for at an hour from the force flush," the leader didn't care and haul the unconscious man up on to his shoulder.

The sound of rifles didn't stop, "we need to evac this place now!" he shouts, one man turns away from the breach, his hand went to his side and pull out a large package, his other hand took hold of a long wire.

Approaching the other side of the wall he place the package at the foot of the wall then stab the wire into it, "C4 ready!" he shouts back running away while he unravels a line of wire from his belt.

The others hearing this walk backwards while keeping a disciple barrage into the hole, they all huddled behind the now empty cryo tube, "fire in the hole!" shouts the man holding a device which is wired to the C4 at the wall.

An explosion appeared blowing the entire wall where the C4 was planted created a large hole, "move!" shouts the leader running ahead of them all with the unconscious man still slung over his shoulder.

The men followed without a second thought, two of them guarded their rear as they made their way through the new hole, "let's go Neji, Kilk!" one of the men shouts.

Hearing this the two turn and begin to sprint after their team, the man called Neji with shoulder length long hair threw two grenades behind him as he sprinted, the sound of two explosions followed by the screeching noise of death from one of the monsters made him smile.


The Leader hearing the explosion smiles, "Neji and his explosives," he cheerfully thought, ahead the corridor went left and right, "where to Jim," he shouts, the man who had man the console glance to small map in his hand, "left," he replies.

Following his instructions they turn left.

When all of them save Neji made it round the corner they heard a great roar, "oh no not that!" one of them cries out in fear, from behind Neji stepped a towering beast of red and black.

Its two black horns are curved like a ram, while its great jaw house many sharp dagger like teethes, its arms are stretched out with claws at the end able to split a man in half.

It's legs long and able to carry it fast enough to out run it's prey, it's tail wag left to right able to cripple anyone slow enough to get caught in it's path, "Neji get out of there!" shouts Jim.

It was already too late when the creature opens it's jaws while Neji screams and stare into the mouth, The jaws clamp down on the poor man, "No!" shouts one of the men as he fires at the beast.

Neji is good as dead, but he had enough strength to grab the pin of the grenade at his chest before his head is bitten off, his now limp hand pull the pin out, the beast roars in triumphant, "run!" the leader shouts.

The monster thought they running in fear, but it was wrong to assume that when the grenade on the body of Neji exploded setting off the other three grenades destroying the corpse and blast the monster back, this also cause the ceiling to cave in blocking the path to the fleeing men.


They finally stopped as their breaths came in sharp from the amount of running, "OK we going to rest for a moment then moving on," one of them has his hand balled into fist, "that thing killed Neji," his face red from the running.

The leader pats him on the shoulder, "I know you and Neji were child hood friends Yukimaru but we have to move on," Yukimaru bow his head in shame, "is he worth this much?" he asks.

The leader sighs, "yes he could turn this war for us," the greave stricken man didn't believe him, "anyway let's…" "sir!" came Jim alarmed voice, "what is it?" he asks running to Jim.

He finally realize what it was when he saw their target began to stir, "I didn't expect him to wake up for at least another half an hour," the leader understood but then again the man they had came to recover was said to be the key in winning this war.

Slowly they war his green eyes open, "w…h…ere am I?" the man asks no aware he has no clothes, the leader smiles as he study the long brown hair that seems no suited for this man, "you're alive Mr Ryu Hayabusa," the leader greets smiling broadly.
