Friday 11:16 am
I took a deep breath. "Ahhh...I love the smell of dismemberment in the morning." I said with a grin while standing on the back of the truck doing one of my deeper voices with a note of enthusiasm.
"Well we put in another small dent into the zombie population." Ryan said holstering his P90's with a undertone of optimism.
"I'm up for round two, how about you guys?" Jordan asked with a laugh.
"Naah." Ryan said.
"Same plus besides I feel like exploring anyways, you guys up for it?" I asked with a smile.
"Sure I'm getting hungry anyways." Jordan said.
"Ditto." Ryan said in agreement.
"Wanna check that store over there?" I asked pointing to a winco.
"That one over there?" Ryan answered gesturing to the mentioned building.
"Yeah." I said with a smirk.
"To Winco we go!" Jordan added enthusiastically.
We made our trek to the winco about half a mile from the zombie massacre site which I might add was a beautiful site considering, about 20 minutes of driving without incident surprisingly we made it to the winco I pointed out, I equipped Mowe Down and put on a silencer on it I found from one of the corpses of the soldiers along the way to winco Ryan equipped one of his P90's and put a silencer on it too and Jordan whipped out splitter then we went in, Ryan saw a few of the first of many zombies in the store he motioned us to stop he took aim and did a triple headshot on the zombies in front of us we continued. Then we stopped when we saw a group of 12 down one of the aisles I decided to take them out, I motioned Jordan and Ryan to stay where they were but Ryan still kept his P90 pointed down the aisle if I fucked up.
Now, I dropped down on the floor, I aimed down the aisle and proceeded to shoot them down until the last zombie fell by a headshot. Afterwards I got up and grinned at the sight then we proceeded down the aisle gathering canned food and varying types of cups of noodles, yes collage food moving on. Then we went to the other side of the store to get some drinks, surprisingly I found mountain dew voltage that's still good for another two months carbonation wise surprisingly, so I grabbed a few of them and a few other pops then went to Jordan and Ryan to get the water bottles, we gathered as much as we could before we left then we went to do more exploring.
After loading up some of our finds, I pull out a pair of binoculars (heavily modded, as to say, epic variable zoom, night vision and a range finder function ) then started looking around.
"Hmm nothing here...nothing here...or here...or there...wait a sec...oohhh hello!" I said with a grin.
"What did ye finds?" Ryan asked.
"You'd never believe me if I told you, here you take a look there."
I said to Ryan while handing him the binoculars.
"Holy shit, I thought they had all been detonated." Ryan said with a surprised smile.
"So did I. Road trip!" I said with a grin.
"Wait to where?" Jordan asked curiously.
"Were going to the military base and by the looks of it, it's some sort of research base too if I'm correct." I said.
"if, big if." Ryan pointed out.
"if indeed...but we'll never know until we look am I right?" I said with a grin.
"Then shall we go?" Jordan asked.
"Go we shall lets see what kind of cool shit they have in there! Avonti!" I said with a smile and a short demented laugh pointing to the general direction of the compound.
By the looks of it, it was about two or three miles out from us from where we stood then Ryan started the truck and we made our trek to it. For my entertainment I had my mp3 and Ryan being the badass friend he is he made a badass battery for it so the power lasts on that thing like a fucking Nintendo DS lite. I swear and how he made it I don't know but he made it the last time we were at a military base but that's off topic right now, after I put my earbuds in I enjoyed the music I had on it and I'm not going in depth on it, but I'll say I have a hell of a lot of songs, Ryan and Jordan had their versions of entertainment then about ten minutes later, I asked if they wanted some music. They agreed so I plugged my mp3 to the stereo then Three Days Grace's Let's Start A Riot plays and we sang along to it. While we did this I saw some zombies on the road up front so I grabbed my sniper rifle Headshot and proceed doing a literal head count with each shot on a little gyro sniping platform Ryan cooked up as I did my halo announcer voice counting up the kill streak to the part that I made up saying "Unfuckingbelievable!" then about three minutes later we got to see the corpses as we pass them, after that we finally make it to the base I saw.
"Holy shit you were right!" Jordan said surprised while looking at the building.
"Holy shit I was right!" I said amazed.
"Holy shit now that is scary." Ryan said playfully.
"Fuck you." I said laughing.
"Well let's go check inside." Jordan added.
There was a gate that stood before us and ten foot high walling all around the area of the complex but that was no problem.
"Hahahah oh I've been waiting for something like this, I've been meaning to try a new toy of mine." I said with an evil grin and an evil giggle.
"Oh shit, okay Jordan lets get behind this chunk of rubble so we don't die." Ryan suggested.
"You don't trust me that much?" I said in a fake sad tone.
"No it's not that I don't trust you, it's just I don't want to die that's all." Ryan proclaimed.
"Really? is the things I find and make that dangerous?" I asked.
"No...I just don't trust you with them." Ryan answered.
"Wow dude...just wow...fine go hide in the rubble, I'll have this open in the next two minutes anyways." I said looking at the gate.
Ryan and Jordan walked to one of the big chunks of rubble 50 feet away from the gate and hid there. Ryan said a few words of encouragement the only way our friendship has done so by saying these words, which these are the ones I came up with seven years ago.
"Don't worry I don't believe in you!" Ryan said.
"Asshole." I said playfully while holding a middle finger in there general direction as I went to work.
"Takes one to know one." Jordan chimed with a laugh.
"Hey that's my line." I quipped while laughing.
I took off my backpack that I had before you know the zombies came around. I then took out a three pound slab of C4 that I had for a while, after I took that out I placed it on the gate and set the timer to ten seconds then pressed the start button then grabbed my backpack and ran to where Ryan and Jordan were staying at.
"Was that c4!?" Ryan asked surprised.
"Fuck yeah and you might want to duck now." I said with a grin and doing one of my demented laughs.
"Oh shit!" Ryan said ducking as the c4 went off.
"BOOM SHAKA LOCKA MOTHA FUKA HAAHAAA! OPEN SAYS MEEE!" I yelled thrusting my fists in the air enjoying my handy work.
"So you mean to tell me you had C4 with you this entire time!" Jordan asked puzzled and surprised at the same time.
"Yep! Well not the entire time." I said with a grin.
"When the hell did you get it!?" Ryan asked surprised.
"Oh I got it from one of the many corpses of soldiers when we were on our way to winco." I explained.
"You gotta be shitting me!" Jordan said still surprised.
"Nope there's your proof of what's left of the gate." I said smiling and doing my demented laugh looking at the gate that's in many pieces "Goddamn I love my luck at finding useful things."
"Jordan remember William loves his explosives." Ryan said.
"Yeah forgot about that..." Jordan said while still staring at what's left of the gate.
After we got done staring at my work on the gate we went in to the research complex, Ryan equipped his P90's with silencers I brought out Mowe down and Jordan got out his m4 carbine while we walked into the building then we went exploring, we didn't split up unlike many movies have portrayed since us being gamers we knew better not to split up even though you can cover more ground, it's not the smartest of ideas plus we have things of varying paranoia so that helps too, we walked down one of the corridors then we saw one of the labs knowing military research buildings there's bound to be some badass stuff for us to get.
As we were looking I spot something in the corner of the room, I look and it looks like some sort of backpack, I looked at it with a raised brow as I did my stitch questioning noise, I come closer to it and slowly unzip one of the many large pockets, after doing so I looked to see what it holds inside but as I look in it, it seems there was nothing there but blackness then I get the idea maybe there's something inside so I'd have to dig for it, so as I'm doing this I grab what feels like a handle of some kind then I pull whatever it was out with bulging eyes of surprise, it was a really futuristic machine gun of some sort. Then I yell to Jordan and Ryan to come look at what I found.
"Guys...I think I found a pocket dimension backpack." I said while looking at the machine gun and the backpack back and forth.
"Bullshit." Ryan proclaimed while he and jordan came over to where I was in the room.
"Then explain me getting this futuristic machine gun out of fucking nowhere." I said while Ryan and Jordan looked at the machine gun I was holding and then looking at the backpack.
"Fine I'll show you if you don't believe me." I continued as I put the machine gun back in the backpack then put in boomstick but not letting go of it.
"Ok now I believe you." Ryan said disbelief.
"Oh and dibs." I said while taking off my backpack and switching it with the pocket dimension one after getting my things out of it then putting them in the pocket dimension pack.
"Hey Jordan you got a backpack now." I said while handing him mine.
"Lovely." Jordan said somewhat sarcastically after putting on mine.
"Hey you can store ammo better plus you now have a spot to put splitter." I added.
"At least." Ryan agreeing with my point.
"Let's check the other rooms shall we?" I asked.
"Let's." Jordan replied.
We left the room we were in then went to the one down the hall.
"Wait a sec my gamer sense is tingling." I said as we walked up to a door.
"God I haven't heard that in a long time." Ryan said having a moment of nostalgia.
We approach the door and there was a window in it, I peaked through the window to see one of my most favorite of weapons of all time...the dubstep gun.
"Oh my fucking sweet mother of god!" I said excitedly as adjusted so the mask was on the back of my head.
"What is it?" Ryan asked confused as to why I'm so excited.
"Oh give me a minute and I'll show you both." I said with a huge grin.
"Oh I know that look, let's move back a ways." Ryan said to Jordan.
"You don't have to tell me twice." Jordan said backing away with Ryan.
"And I thought the military would never make this...I'm happy they did and now it's going to be mine muhahahaha!" I said with a demented grin and doing one of my psychotic sounding voices.
I looked at the door knob and brought out boomstick and aimed then fired until the door creaked opened, then I walked in as Ryan and Jordan made there way back to me wondering why I was so happy.
"Okay im kinda scared of what William found." Jordan chimed.
"Yeah, same here but I'm still wondering." Ryan said as him and Jordan heard me doing my demented laughter.
"Oh the day I've been waiting for has finally come!" I said as I approached the dubstep gun.
"Oh god...he found the dubstep gun, I never thought the military would actually make it." Ryan said in surprise and disbelief to see as of what I found.
"Hahahaha I has my bullshit power at last...and it's about fucking time too." I said with glee.
"Ok shits and giggles time!...Bass Suit!" I said with enjoyment.
After I said that phrase the dubstep gun enveloped me morphing to my body and turning into armor that kind of looked like iron man armor crossed with the vanquish armor with tron lines on it. it's primary color a dark metallic blue and secondary a dark metallic gray with the tron lines a soft glowing crimson red color.
"I think William found his bass cannon..." Ryan said in surprise and miner irritated disbelief watching the dubstep gun turning to my armor.
"Holy shit...it's the one from my story and yours Ryan." Jordan pointed out.
"Ok bullshit level increased by tenfold!" Ryan said looking at me.
"Oh let the badassery begin!" I said in a joyous tone and doing a short demented laugh.
"Now you have that dubstep suit of yours you've always wanted." Ryan pointed out.
"Oh yes indeed." I said enjoyed.
"Running diagnostics...systems functional...acquiring data...suit activated by...William, Porter...running scan on subject…...subject shows, mental issues, some of instability, few bodily issues...growth separations of both knees, moderate to severe degree. Hypoglycemia. Dry eye syndrome among other issues. Commencing healing process of subject for optimal usage of amour…" A voice of an Ai droned, Then I felt a very odd tingling feeling throughout my body as I shivered involuntarily"…..complete. Finally I have someone to pilot this damn body." A computerized voice said out of nowhere. it had the same voice as the Crysis nanosuits Ai.
"Holy shit!, The suit has an Ai!" Jordan said surprised with widened eyes.
My eyes widened after hearing this. "Okay one, I won't have knee problems anymore, Finally! two, this Ai sounds exactly like the nano suits Ai! Which. is. Fucking awesome!" I said in a chorus tone at the end somewhat excited, surprised and joyed.
"interesting, this is the first time a subject has enjoyed my presence." The Ai said rather surprised.
"Hahaha awesome. I get my bass cannon and I get a badass Ai too! This is so fucking awesome!" I said excitedly.
"I know shits been getting weird lately but for god's sake. We go to a research facility and find William's supposed bass suit and it has the Crisis Ai in!" Jordan said surprised.
My helmet opened to show me doing my demented grin with a short demented laugh. "Ooooh mesa likey suit." I said thinking of situations with the suit then a shoulder mounted version of the bass cannon morphed out from my shoulder which I then noticed and then thought. interesting, I'll have to keep in mind of this. Then I willed it back into the suit and it did so, which surprisingly neither Ryan nor Jordan noticed while they were in there little conversation. "How did he activate the shoulder cannon then deactivated it?" Crysis thought curiously
"So, AI. Vhat might thee be called? " I asked interrupting the AI's thoughts.
"I am designated as Crisis." Crisis replied.
"Cool." I said with a bit of my usual cheeriness.
"Yeah." Jordan said in a slightly enthused sarcastic tone.
After this meeting me and Ryan started to get a strange feeling then we heard a woman's voice that sounded...incredibly familiar even though we've never recalled the voice before.
"Help me….please….in the next room. Please anyone there?" the voice said in a terrified weakened tone, on the brink of sobbing.
Me and Ryan looked at each other. "Did you hear that?" I asked.
"Yeah I did." Ryan replied.
"What are you guys talking about?" Jordan asked looking at us with a puzzled look.
I looked at Ryan then to Jordan "Guys this might sound crazy...but...I think Faith is here..." I said in a surprised tone.
"Wait Faith?..." Jordan asked in surprise Crysis gave his own confused but unseen look.
"Yeah, hey Ryan do you sense that pull?" I asked with a somewhat concerned look.
"Yeah...I say we follow it." Ryan said walking out of the room with me and Jordan in tow as I was walking I lagged behind a bit to the point of being behind Jordan at which my armor retracted and formed into a wristband below my Seether wristband. I looked at it then smiled. "Convenient." Is what is read on the band's surface. Huh...little halo reference. Or it could be the division name or project name. Eh, i'll fuck with the idea later.
The three of us walked down several hallways and corridors before we found a door that had a sign that said "EXPERiMENT STORAGE" after me and Ryan followed this sense we've been having since we heard that voice from earlier then we heard it again except it was louder somehow this time.
"Someone….help me….I'm in the tube….!" the voice pleaded as the three of us approached the door.
The door slid open as we neared it then we walked into the storage chamber, we found one of those test subject tubes and we saw one holding a red and white creature which looked like it was four feet long or so and which had an aerodynamic body with a pair of paws and what looked like it had wings that resembled airplane wings of a sort, then we saw a scar that ran the length of its torso. Then me and Ryan paled when we found out what or should more likely say found out who it was then we heard her pleading voice again after we saw her open her golden eyes then she put one paw on the glass of the tube imprisoning her.
"Ryan! Ryan! it's you! Get me out of here! Please! I need help…." Faith begged.
"Oh my god its...its..." I said surprised to see the creature, and then I began to walk up to the control panel to the tube. "Oh my god...it's really...it's-it's really you." Ryan said in disbelief.
"Oh my god its Faith...oh my god it's you! Faith oh my god...hold on we'll get you out, Ryan get ready to get her out." I said trying to work the controls of the panel of the tube then I finally manage to open it.
The tube that held Faith made a hissing noise before it drained of its green fluid then after it was done draining the door of the tube opened, then me and Ryan brought Faith out of the pod. Then we placed her on the ground, Ryan sat behind her having Faith use his lap as a pillow, then I get an idea to open up my new backpack and dig into it, and to my disbelief about a minute later I find some pillows and blankets of all things. Then I placed the thickest blankets on one another as a makeshift bed which made it to about a foot and a half high, then I put on a few pillows on the makeshift bed after doing so Ryan gently placed Faith on the makeshift bed then I grabbed a final lighter blanket to place over her after this me and Ryan got next to the makeshift bed I put together, we both looked at Faith with intensely worried faces then Faith brought her paws onto our hands and lovingly smiled at us.
"Thank you both for finally coming and getting me out of that prison...thank you both so much." Faith said lightly sobbing and while tears of happiness and joy flowed down her face then she got up and hugged us both with one of those very deeply loving hugs, that you would give to a very dear and beloved family member you haven't seen in years, catching both me and Ryan off guard then after getting over being stunned by shear surprise then we return the affection with joyous praise.
"God this is one hell of a surprise, but a good one at that." I said smiling while me and Ryan lovingly hugged Faith still.
"Yeah..." Ryan said still hugging Faith then we finally parted after a few more minutes of hugging her.
Then Jordan finally commented after watching all this with constant surprise "You...gotta be shitting me..."
"Yes Jordan, she's real, and we can say this is one hell of a surprise as well." I said in a cheerful tone when me and Ryan looked at Jordan to see his shocked face.
"Ryan who is this?" Faith asked perplexed while looking at Jordan.
"Thats Jordan he's mine and Williams friend before all this happened." Ryan explained.
Faith looked at Jordan for a few moments then looked back to me then Ryan then asked. "Can we trust him?" Faith asked concernedly.
I gave Faith a reassuring smile. "He's been with us since these bloody zombies came around and he hasn't tried to kill us and he's helped more than trying to get us out of the way, plus it wouldn't have been a good idea in the first place on that." I replied with a reassuring smile and a cheerful tone.
"He's right." Jordan chimed in.
"That's good to know, wait zombies!? You mean, they, it's the... " Faith said worriedly trailing off.
"Yep, the world got screwed. it's the bloody apocalypse." I said in a somewhat saddened tone.
"Well, talk about depressing…" Faith said in a saddened tone then did a saddened smile. "At least I can be with two of my loved ones."
I did a rueful smile then hugged her again as I allowed a few tears of happiness to flow. "Well I'm glad to finally have you around. it'll make dealing with this little bit of hell easier..." I said in a somewhat saddened tone, which caused her to tighten her hug.
"it'll definitely be easier now." Ryan Agreed.
