Author: Okay guys, here's the next chapter of my story. Hope y'all enjoy it!
Chapter 6: We are Meta. Hear us kill!
"I'm… I'm sorry. Could you repeat that? You said you have 'who' as your 'what'?" screamed the security guard to the lead Recon Agent. They were talking to each other through a video conference.
"I said I have the Meta as my prisoner. We have explicit instructions from command to bring him to this exact facility." replied the lead Agent.
The seven pelican dropships were hovering just a few hundred yards away from the detention facility, waiting for the order to dock in its hanger bay.
"Hold up! I thought the Meta died in a pelican crash landing, or something. UNSC soldiers even scanned the area and saw that his health scanner declared him dead. How is it that you have him as your prisoner?" said the suspicious guard.
"I see. Well then, let's see what he has to say about that." replied the lead agent as he signaled his agents to bring Meta 2.0 in view of the camera.
Once Meta 2.0 was in view, the guard saw that he was bound in several chains and cuffs. He then heard as Meta 2.0 made several growls and hisses towards the camera. That was all the guard needed to see in order to be convinced it was him.
"Holy crap! You mean he survived?" squealed the guard.
"Damn right. So in case you don't mind, we'll be docking with you now."
"Alright, sir. All I need is your clearance codes so I can let you in, okay?"
"No problem. I am passing the clearance codes to you now." said the lead agent as he pressed several buttons on his keypad.
The guard looked over the codes and saw that they checked out. "Okay, sir. Codes accepted. Please wait while we make room for your ships in our docking bays. I doubt we'll be able to land them all together in the same docking bays. We may have to scatter them throughout the facility. Is that okay with you, sir?"
That was all the agent needed to hear. "Yes. That's sounds perfect." smirked the agent as he disconnected from their conversation.
He then turned his attention to Meta 2.0. "You were excellent. For a second there, I almost thought you really were the Meta."
"Of course. I'll do whatever it takes to get this mission started. I don't know why, but I'm started to feel excited about this mission. It's almost like I have this strange urge to killsomething."hissed Meta 2.0.
"Well then, today's your lucky day. Get back to your seat and await my orders, soldier."
"Yes, sir."
Meta 2.0 turned and sat back down in his seat.
A sudden signal came from inside the cockpit as the lead agent pressed a button to reveal the security guard back on the main screen.
"Okay guys, we've been able to make enough room for you all to land. Please make your ways to Docking Bays 1, 3, 4, and 5."
"Thank you soldier. We'll be landing shortly. Over and out." said the lead agent as he disconnected from their conversation.
"Okay, boys! Our mission is a go! Remember, do not engage the enemy until Meta, here, has found the Director. Are you ready?" yelled the lead agent.
"SIR, YES SIR!" yelled back the other agents.
The pelicans then started to make their way towards the facility, each one finding its place in their respective docking bays. Once they landed, all agents came running out of their ships and made their way towards Meta 2.0's dropship.
As they approached the ship, the doors to the pelican opened up and revealed that he was still bound in chains as well as having the other agents holding him at gunpoint. They then slowly started to escort him out of the ship. It wasn't long until several security guards approached them.
"Excellent job soldiers, we'll take him from here." said one of the guards as they held Meta 2.0 at gunpoint.
"I don't think so." replied the lead agent as he stepped off the pelican. "To make sure things go right, I will not release him into your care unless I have at least two of my own soldiers escort him to his cell."
The guard seemed disturbed at his statement but humbly agreed. "Alright then, I'll allow it. Buttwo, and only two of your soldiers get to come with us."
"Excellent."
The lead agent then selected two of his agents to accompany the guards and Meta 2.0. One of them carried Meta 2.0's Concussion Rifle, Pistol, and knife concealed inside a black backpack. That way when it was time to free the Director, the agent will be able to hand him his weapons.
"In the mean time, we'll stay here in the hanger bay and wait for our men to return." saidthe lead agent.
"Pfft, whatever." scoffed the guard as he, seven of his guards, Meta 2.0, and the two agents made their way inside the facility.
As they walked through the halls Meta 2.0 used his HUD to analyze each and every hallway. He noticed there were hundreds of security cameras in almost every hallway they entered. He knew from that moment that this mission wasn't going to be easy. The only way he could make a move was to get clear of these cameras, and make sure these guards don't have access to some kind of an alarm trigger.
After several minutes of walking, one of the guards decided to talk in order to intimidate Meta 2.0. "You know Meta, you're not the only person we have here who was from Project Freelancer."
Meta 2.0 only responded by growling and hissing at the guard.
"That's right. We happen to have the Director himself locked up in here as well. I can only imagine the look on his face when he finds out that you're here." As soon as the agents heard him, they saw an opportunity to try and find the Director's cell.
"So, you mean to tell us that you have Dr. Leonard Church locked up here?" asked one of the agents.
"That's right."
"Interesting. Do you know which prison cell he's in?"
"Of course I know. Wait, why do you ask?"
"Oh, no reason, just curious."
The guard seemed a little suspicious of the agent's question. But he didn't think it was important enough to think about, so he decided to let it go.
The group then came to several elevators. One of the guards pressed a button to have the elevator doors open so as to get Meta 2.0 to his cell. The group then entered inside as the elevator doors opened. Luckily there was plenty of room for all of them to fit in.
That was when Meta 2.0 noticed that there was only one camera inside the elevator. If there was any opportunity to act, now would be the time. He then turned to the two agents and gave them a nod. Then just as the doors closed, Meta 2.0 leaped into the air and head-butted the camera, causing it to shatter into several pieces.
"Holy shit!" screamed one of the guards, as he quickly raised his rifle at Meta.
The other guards saw this and immediately aimed their guns at Meta 2.0. But the two recon agents drew their guns out fired at the guards, taking them completely by surprise. The first agent was able to instantly kill one guard as he shot him straight in the second agent mortally wounded another guard by shooting him in the chest.
Once Meta 2.0 landed on the ground, he broke from his chains and swung them at the five remaining guards. The heavy chains did their job well by knocking the guards off balance.
Meta then dove towards the guard on his left and reached for his rifle. As soon as he got a hold of it, he pointed it upward so as not to get shot. He then slammed his fist into the guard's stomach, knocking him out. After that, he twisted the rifle out of the guard's hand and positioned it under left armpit. Meta then reached for the trigger and fired the rifle at the two guards behind him, killing them.
The two remaining guards were shot and killed by the recon agents.
Only the guards that were shot in the chest, and knocked out by Meta, were left alive. This was short-lived as Meta used the rifle he had in his hand to quickly end their lives.
Once that was done, Meta quickly pressed the emergency stop button, thus causing the elevator to come to a screeching halt.
"Well, that went well." said one of the agents as he took Meta's weapons out of hisbackpack. "Here, I believe these belong to you." He then tossed Meta his weapons.
Meta thanked him as he armed himself. He then ripped open the circuit breaker, inside the elevator, and placed his hand over it. A small yellow glow appeared under his hand as the agents watched and tried to figure out what he was doing. This only lasted for a few seconds as Meta removed his hand from the breaker, thus causing the glow to disappear.
"What the hell did you just do?" asked one of the agents.
"I hacked into the mainframe of this facility and froze all the cameras. That way if we happen to walk by them, the guards won't notice us. I was also able to find out which floor and cell the Director is in." said Meta as he pressed a button on his tac-pad.
Suddenly the voice of the lead agent could be heard through Meta's intercom. "What's your status Meta? Did you find the Director's location?"
"Yes, sir. The other agents and I were able to kill the guards without any disturbance. You may begin your attack, now."
"Excellent, I'll see you when you get back. Over and out."
The lead agent motioned the other agents to take aim at the guards inside the hanger bay. Once the guards noticed all the agents aiming at them, they immediately reached for their weapons.
"What is this? What the hell do you think you're doing?" yelled one of the guards.
"Taking back what belongs to us." replied the lead agent as he gave his men the signal to fire. In a split second, the hanger bay was filled with the sounds of gunfire as well as the sound of dying security guards.
