Blood ARK
Grimm: Not dead everyone! I've had a very busy couple of weeks and hadn't been able to upload or write really. Hopefully you guys will forgive me for this however this chapter is very short BUT I'm currently writing the next chapter for you guys. I'm waiting for a friend to give me the okay for a slight change in the story that affects his character so I'm running it by him first. Read on, my lovely soul takers.
Chapter Nine: Whispers of Fate
"Will you fight?" Eve asked, looking at the muscled croc straight in the eyes.
Vector stood up, his shoulders set back in a dignified way. He towered over the female and with a deep scowl he responded, "Yes."
With a quick nod, she turned to Dune, sadness returning to her face. "Let's get him into the other room over there," she stated, pointing to a smaller room that connected to the one they were in. A large mirror acted as the only means of visual.
Scourge and the rest that remained stationed in the tunnels finally came back as they were zipping Nack's body bag and rolling him and the table into the smaller room. Tails, whom was in the back, had a look of hope before noticing the content of the body bag. Scourge cursed under his breath at the sight and sighed both looking at the trembling female.
"Doctor, do you think you can find something on these computers? Anything we can use or maybe something that we'll tell us what this thing is?" he urged softly. She gave him a nod before briskly walking to a now fully functioning computer and began typing away at it.
Nickolai stepped up and tapped Scourge on the shoulder, gaining his attention. "Sir, I heard some sounds coming from a room within Maintainance sector, may I take Kit and Dune with me to check it out?"
Scourge thought for a moment and finally agreed. The chosen left, leaving the other four team members in the medical lab with their deceased brother and a frightened female doctor. Scourge continued to ponder as to what to do next, especially with one member dead. Then he remembered in one of the rooms of Genetics, there was an experimental armory safe. There was also a hand scanner that was the only way to access such a room and he doubted that Eve would have the clearance or even allow him to obtain a creation of destruction that was most likely in that room. Then it hit him, the dismembered arm he almost tripped on. The green male would be able to use the arm without anyone knowing, but he would have to wait until the team regrouped to discuss to next course of action to be taken.

"Why didn't you take Vector?" Tails asked, eying the domino fox curiously.
"In the state he's in, he's bound to do something stupid and die-hard. Besides, you need the experience," Nickolai relied, quite maturely.
"Shut up, both of you," Dune whispered.
The wolf pressed his ear against the door, hearing almost like a distant hum coming from inside.
The foxes remained quiet as per Dune's command. The ebony wolf placed a hand on the door, testing the stability of it. Gently, he pushed on it, to see if it was locked. It wasn't but the door only budged a crack. That meant the door was barricaded by someone or something inside.
Taking a few steps back, he charged at the door. With one ram attempt, the busted open and a clatter of chairs rained down. Tails and Nickolai entered after the wolf and took positions on either side of him.
In the far corner, was a figure huddled in a fetal like position. Dune, Nickolai, and Tails gasped in shock at what was before them.
Grimm: (sigh) I told you it was short but I couldn't resist a good hanger. Again, I'm currently trying to write the next chapter. Thanks for understanding and for reading. Before I sign off there is a poll on my profile if you guys would vote on that it would be extremely appriecaited. As always, review, favorite, and follow! See ya next time!
