The Viper in the Pit
Chapter 1
Seven Months Ago…
Commander Cobra patiently stood by as his new minion walked into the foyer. He had recently brought back Baroness and Doctor Mindbender from the MASS Device. He had also saved Destro's life. But in all the time that they had worked with him he had never once told them what his best project was. He had personally worked on it after the capture of the Demon Unit and Sarah Abernathy. Baroness stood on one side of him while Mindbender and Destro stood on the other.
At first they stared at the woman in front of them. Short in stature, maybe five foot five, but long legged with creamy brown skin. Her hair was short brown brought forward so that it curled like a pair of devil horns. The eyes of this lustrous were a luminous brown-red color with snake like slits for pupils stared back at the three whom she was working with. Slowly she shifted her head tilted to one side then she was swiftly in front of them. The motion seemed like she had just teleported from the top of the stairs to them.
"I answer to you Master." She said as she locked her eyes onto Commander Cobra. She could not see his eyes through the metallic mask but she knew that she was staring up at them.
"Cobra explain yourself!" Baroness said as she started to reach for a gun.
Cobra turned his head to look at her then he looked to Viper. The woman had been created so that he had an edge against any of his enemies. Now that the Joe's were formidable enemies he knew he needed to use this creation. She had been formed from pieces of each of the Demon Unit. Once a formidable foe like the Joe's, but now they were in ruins.
"This is my new right hand." Cobra rasped as he stood beside Viper. "This is Viper."
"Not to correct you Commander," Mindbender said. "But that's Jane Abernathy, part of Demon Unit."
Cobra chuckled inwardly. How little these fools knew. "Do not doubt me. Genetically she is Jane Abernathy, but she is also the whole of Demon Unit, and she is under my complete control, unlike you impudent slackers!"
Viper stood there. There was nothing apparent on her face, expression wise, only a blank slate.
Destro was worried about the blank slate in front of them. It was unusual for Commander Cobra to have a pet, let alone create one himself.
"What about us?" Baroness questioned.
"You will still work for me, but you will take orders from Viper." Cobra stated while walking away, "As she will loyally be taking orders from me."
Sgt. Henderson walked into the room as he had been ordered to see Jane standing there, or at least a form that looked like Jane. He started to move towards her but found himself quickly pinned to the ground. Jane had barely been able to pin him in the past, and she wasn't that quick about it. He looked up from the floor and over his shoulder to see the slit pupils. That wasn't Jane, it was something else.
"Oh and Viper," Cobra said turning around. He smiled at the sight of Henderson staring up in betrayal at Viper. "Don't kill them, unless I tell you to."
"Yes master," Viper said while letting go of Henderson. She backed away and looked at the people she was commanding for Cobra. They were weak. Nothing about them spoke of high strength or high usefulness. Why would the Commander want her to baby sit these fools? She could be out fighting the fights for him.
Mindbender stared thoughtfully at Viper. He had noticed the slight shift of emotionless to anger. Or was it annoyance? He couldn't tell the difference with her face.
A/N: Just a quick little intro into Viper. This was my back burner story that i kept talking about. It's just a quickie thing to tell her side of it all while Jane is in prison. r&r please.
