"Not Like This" / Hospital Graveyard
In an abandoned hospital at around 2:30 am all seemed quite as the walls of the old dilapidated building started to creek due to cracks in the concrete being held together by nailed down plywood boards. This old hospital was quite large and expansive it was dimly lit and seemed to run forever in the pitch black cover of darkness. A few of the walls on the inside have already crumbled and turned to dust but the structure could still support itself for another few decades. Most of the walls were also starting the process of decay and had holes in them ranging from small peep holes too holes big enough for a person to pass through. The old hospital was built sometime in the 1800's and was like a labyrinth inside. It had so many small rooms and pathways that intersected with each other and the place had different corridors that branched off to the different sections of the massive building.
Suddenly the eerie silence of the building was broken by the all too familiar sound of gun fire and mayhem.
"Let's get the hell out of this cluster fuck!" Dutch shouted to his crew as he stopped running turned around swung his arm and shot his revolver. He manage to take out two of the people that were after them while he provided cover for both Rock and Benny as they quickly ran by him trying to avoid enemy fire. "Two-hands we gotta go!" Dutch ordered. Revy then goes around the corner of the corridor walking backwards with a clip in her mouth shooting at the people who are after them. Having run out of ammo for one of her cutlasses she releases its clip and lets the empty shell fall to the floor, she then loads in a new one with her teeth. After loading she fires off a few more shots behind her with one of her guns as she ran towards Dutch and passed by him to catch up with Rock and Benny. Having made sure his entire crew was accounted for Dutch then followed right behind them.
"We're fucking sitting ducks in here." Revy said in an agitated tone while the four of them scrambled for the exit. As they were running, Dutch spotted a glimmer of light through one of the cracks in the walls and though it might be the exit they were looking for. "Take a left in the next hallway I think it might be our way out of this mess." Dutch informed his crew. Revy who was in front of them did as Dutch instructed. Low and behold the captain's hunch was right. In front of them was an old wooden door with glass in the middle and light emanating from the other side. The light on the other side of the door looked like a street light; they breathed a sigh of relief thinking freedom was within their reach. However that same light they thought would lead to their salvation would only lead to more trouble.
Revy then goes ahead and opens the hospital front door eager to finally get out of there after the long shitty day she's had. However to her shock the light coming from the other side was not a street lamp, it was a spot light! In front of the door was a whole battalion of mercenaries armed with assault rifles. They even brought a vehicle mounted machine gun with them. Thankfully the mercenaries weren't paying much attention to the door they were supposed to be guarding. They were instead pre occupied talking to each other and smoking cigarettes. Revy having realized the kind of shit they were in tried to close the door before the mercenaries would notice. Unfortunately one of the mercenaries spotted Revy and yelled "There they are, kill them all!" effectively calling the attention of is squad. The mercenaries then took up arms and were about to fire at the door. "SHIT!" Revy yelled as she and the rest of the crew ran for cover behind the wall next to the door right before the mercenaries outside opened fire.
Bullets started to fly, impact, and ricochet off the front walls of the hospital building right were Lagoon Company was taking cover. "These bastards just keep coming there's no end them!" Dutch angrily remarked at the situation they were in while he and Revy were returning fire through the now door less door frame. The buildings walls being over 150 years old couldn't take much more of the storm of lead that was hitting it and started crumbling.
Rock noticed this and said: "Dutch, the walls are giving way fast we won't have anything to hide behind in a few minutes!"
"Rock I'm kind of in the middle of pumping these dipshits full of lead. If you can find us away out of this mess that be fucking fantastic!" Dutch replied in an irritated tone as bullets whizzed past him while he was returning fire with his shotgun
Rock started to try and find a way out of the hospital lobby. As he looked around the area he found a ventilation duct near the floor. The duct seemed big enough for a person to fit through. "Guys there's a ventilation duct over there we could crawl into." Rock informed them as he pointed at the duct. The four of them then hurriedly headed towards it and started crawling into it one by one.
The ventilation duct looked like a maze of rusted out iron and had cobwebs thick enough to trap a person in. After 5 minutes of taking left turns and right turns they stopped at a section of the duct that was big enough for the 4 of them too sit down in so they can plan their next move.
"Alright we need to come up with a way out of here and we sure as shit can't go back the way we came. Rock do you have any ideas?" Dutch asked.
As Rock calculated their options he couldn't help but worriedly think about earlier today. "This was supposed to be a simple job, just another plain old delivery. How could things have gone to shit so quickly?" Rock thought to himself as he recollected about the events that led to the lagoon company's present predicament. Just then Revy snaps him out of his daze by angrily shouting at him: "Yo earth to Rock! If you haven't noticed we are kind of short on fucking time so could you hurry your ass up and think of a way to get us out of this shit?!" In response Rock shakes his head and hurriedly thinks of plan. "THE FIRE ESCAPE!" he shouted after which he explained to them that earlier today he noticed that the hospital had an old fire escape leading into the basement and it could be their way out seeing as all the ground level exits are blocked and there's more than 70 mercenaries swarming the area. After thinking it through and asking Revy and Benny if they had any other suggestions Dutch decided to go with Rock's plan.
The four pirates then started to crawl around in the ventilation system to find an opening they could go through that was in a location that didn't have any people around to see them. They eventually stumbled upon a vent opening that didn't seem to have any one around it. After using her legs to force the vent grills to open slowly and silently Revy started to carefully crawl out of the vent opening followed by the others. They seemed to be in the hospitals nursery seeing as the place was filled with cribs and baby strollers. As they were about to get off the floor they heard footsteps flowed by the unmistakable sound of a rifle being hand carried and the illumination of a flash light. The four of them then ducked down and hid in the darkness. Two of the many mercenaries after them then walked in through the hallway where the nursery was located. Thankfully the two idiots just walked by and didn't even bother to look through the nursery. After the close call, the crew of the black lagoon then proceeded to head out of the nursery and stealthily sneaked their way to the fire escape.
When crew finally reached their destination there was a minor obstacle they had to face. The fire escape entrance was at the end of a small hallway and was being guarded by only one mercenary armed with an M4a1 assault rifle that had a grenade launcher attached to it. Revy was about to just go ahead and shoot the motherfucker blocking the way but Dutch stopped her.
"Revy don't fuck this up. You can't just shoot him the sound of your gun will attract the other 70 motherfuckers after us."Dutch whispered as he stopped the plum haired gun slinger from making a bad move.
"Ok Dutch than how the fuck do you supposed we get rid of him?" Revy asked annoyed that she wasn't able to shoot the mercenary.
Dutch paused and started to formulate plan to get rid of the obstacle blocking their path. As he looked around the area he noticed that the hallway they were in was the shape of a big letter T. The lagoon company was positioned in the upper left part of the T and the mercenary was situated in the middle section. On the upper right section was an old glass picture frame attached to the wall. After thoroughly surveying the area Dutch was able to formulate a plan to get rid of the mercenary guarding the entrance to the fire escape.
"Revy I want you to scout the surrounding area make sure you aren't seen and report back to me if you see any other hostiles in the vicinity." Dutch commanded. Revy then promptly followed orders and was on her way
"Dutch what exactly are you planning?" Rock asked curious of what tactic the former Vietnam veteran had up his sleeve.
"Rock Im not gonna lie to you it's something pretty crazy but it just might work." Dutch replied.
After a few minutes Revy came back and said: "This part of the building is like a fucking ghost town Dutch I haven't seen a single soul."
"Amen, halleluiah, and peanut butter. Shit really does line up perfectly sometimes s doesn't it?" Dutch said with a smirk as he remarked at how his plan seemed to be perfect for the situation. During this time the rest of the of the crew had a puzzled look on their faces due to having absolutely no idea what he was talking about.
"Alright I want the three of you hide in the dark corner at the end of the hallway and make sure you aren't seen." Dutch said to his crew after which he also placed himself under the cover darkness only nearer to the hallway the mercenary was in. Dutch then took out his revolver released the cylinder and took out one of the bullets inside.
"What the hell is Dutch up too?" Revy asked. Rock and Benny having no idea either replied by shrugging their shoulders.
Suddenly Dutch threw the bullet at the glass picture frame in front of him which was located in the upper right corner of the T shaped corridor. Dutch hit his mark and the picture frame shattered effectively getting the attention of the mercenary blocking their path. "What the hell was that?" the mercenary said. He then pointed his gun in the direction where he heard the noise coming from and slowly started to walk towards it. As the mercenary got to the end of the small hallway he was in he quickly made a right turn thinking he might surprise what ever made that noise. The mercenary was only met with an empty hallway and shards of broken glass on the floor. Suddenly a large ominous shadow can be seen making its way towards him. From the cover of darkness Dutch grabs the mercenary and placed him in a choke hold while at the same time covering the man's mouth to make sure he doesn't call for help. "Don't make this any harder than it need to be." Dutch said in a deep threatening tone of voice right before he snapped the man's neck killing him on the spot.
"Holy fuck Dutch that shit looked like it came straight outta metal gear solid!" Revy said as she stepped out of the cover of darkness impressed at what she just saw.
"Don't get too exited two-hands we aren't out of this shit yet." Dutch replied as he picked up the now dead mercenary's M4.
After dealing with their small inconvenience the lagoon company then headed down into the fire escape and what they saw was straight out of a nightmare. The basement had been flooded with sewage and had chunks of rotting animals floating atop of the surface of the water.
"The fucking hell is that smell?! Jesus fucking Christ it smells worse than someone's ass in here!" Revy said thoroughly disgusted at the smell of the area.
The others weren't having the time of their lives either in fact it was even worse for them. Rock only took one whiff and started to vomit and Benny who feels nauseous at the sound of someone vomiting also started to vomit. During this time Dutch was also starting to feel like throwing up but as always he put on a poker face and didn't even show any sign of weakness.
"Alright it seems our only option is to trudge through this god forsaken cesspool." Dutch said as he took a step into the knee deep black water.
"You have to be fucking shitting me" Revy said in a annoyed tone of voice seeing as she was wearing daisy dukes and her bare legs would be exposed to the sickening feeling of chunked up sludge pooling around her.
Having no other choice Revy, Rock, and Benny reluctantly followed Dutch into the water when suddenly things took a turn for the worse. Some of the mercenaries happened upon the dead body of their comrade and radioed in for back up while the others tried to find where the lagoon company went. The mercenaries started to head down the fire escape leading into the basement and spotted Lagoon Company as they moved through the dark swampy water after which they took out their rifles and started shooting. "Shit they found us!" Rock yelled as the four of them ran as fast as they could while trying to dodge bullets and at the same time returning fire. They eventually got out of the sewage and took cover in the arch way of what looked like an old wine cellar. When the crew found cover Rock thought to himself: "Wasn't this a hospital? What's a wine cellar doing here? Maybe there's more to this old place then it lets on?"
Rock was then jolted out of his thoughts by the sound of gun fire and Revy shouting profanities at the enemy. At this point both Dutch and Revy were plowing through quite a few mercenaries. This was made much easier by the m4 that Dutch picked up. Somehow lagoon was holding back the waves of mercenaries gunning for them.
After noticing 10 of the attackers all piled up in a group Revy yelled "Dutch blow these fuckers to kingdom come!"
"With pleasure!" Dutch replied right before he used the M4s grenade launcher attachment to blow those fuckers to smithereens. The grenade caused body parts to get flung in all the directions as its victims screamed in agony. After seeing the destruction and death that was happening around her Revy said: "Now this is a fucking party!" after which she proceeded to shoot more of the mercenaries.
Suddenly without warning Dutch gets shot in the back!
