"Shiyla, are you sure hun?" Hanna asked while staring at the concrete door her dog currently had its paws against.

The chowchow sniffed the barricades again in response to her question before yipping excitedly and trotting to her master's side. Hanna sighed, looking back at the group before stating the obvious.

"We have to get through that door."

Isabella's trail had led them back into the Cosmodrome, down into the Centrifuge Room, all the way back to the stairs leading up to Juggernog until they were met with their first obstacle, a large barricaded concrete door.

Dempsey grunted in frustration while pacing back and forth. "Shit! How the hell are we gonna-"

"Stand back," Richtofen ordered while pulling out his crossbow and grinning wickedly. "Perhaps zhis vill do ze trick..."

Aiming at the door the doctor fired his weapon, shooting a blinking arrow right in the middle of the barricades as they all waited for what was going to happen next. The arrow attached to the door exploded, sending bits of debris flying and clouding the room with smoke... But the door still wouldn't budge.

The Marine growled, kicking the door angrily before turning around to face the rest of the group.

"Now what?" He asked, thoroughly pissed off while gripping his Galil tightly and waiting for someone else to come up with some kind of bright idea...

"We could look for vodka..." Nikolai muttered to himself before he noticed Tank and Brianna both giving him death glares. "Or we could find Isabella first." He added quickly, not wanting to be murdered by those two before he had a chance to consume more delicious alcohol.

Takeo frowned, shaking his head at the Soviet's lack of honor while Brianna stepped forward to examine the door.

"There has to be another way..." She said, approaching the barricade and placing her hand on the smooth concrete surface. I wish you were here Izzy... She thought, feeling herself getting emotional again. You always have a plan...

Frowning, Brianna realized that things had always been this way between them, even while they were growing up. Even though I'm the older sister, she's always been the one looking out for me... And I'm always the one who is relying on her...

"Not this time..." Brianna said out loud, snapping out of her thoughts and holding up the Zeus Cannon while attracting the attention of her comrades.

"Vhat?" Richtofen questioned, totally confused as the blonde backed away from the door and motioned for everyone else to do the same.

"Everyone get back!" She ordered, a strange look of determination in her eyes as she snatched three grenades from her belt, pulling the pins out before shoving them inside the Thundergun. Eyes widening in disbelief, the doctor opened his mouth to stop her but could only watch as she raised the gun and pointed it towards the door.

"Vhat are you doing?! Zhat is not ze proper vay to-"

KABOOM!

Smoke filled the small room once again as chunks of concrete could be heard crumbling to the ground. Coughing and swatting at the air in front of her, Hanna squinted, brushing strands of chestnut hair away from her eyes as she raised her gun cautiously, preparing for the worst. Brianna however, seemingly taking a page out of Isabella's book, charged in guns a blazing with the Marine right behind her.

"Izzy! Where are yo-"

Suddenly, the blonde was yanked down to the ground by Dempsey as the sound of gunfire could be heard in front of them. A stream of bullets hit the wall right behind her as a shadowy figure emerged from the smoke, laughing manically.

"Miss me?" Johnny asked in between chuckles as he aimed his MP5K in the direction of their small group, red eyes glowing beneath messy black bangs. Dempsey stood up, pushing Brianna behind him in the process, as he stared down the younger male in front of him.

"Where is she?" He hissed through clenched teeth as the rest of the group slowly began to surround the possessed boy, weapons raised and at the ready.

"It's over!" Takeo yelled while aiming his Browning. "You are outnumbered and surrounded..."

Laughing in response, Johnny stared at the Imperial soldier before smiling evilly and replying. "Over...? This game is only just beginning! Perhaps you'd like to meet our newest recruit..."

Shiyla growled lowly as he turned around, lowering his weapon and whistling over his shoulder as another figure began walking forward through the smoke.

"Izzy!" Brianna cried, slightly relieved as she saw her sister emerge from the settling clouds of dust while walking forward slowly, eyes shut as she approached Johnny and stopped to stand at his side.

Something isn't right... She thought nervously, staring at her sister who had yet to say or do anything.

"Isabella! What's wrong with you?!"

Brianna watched in horror as Isabella opened her eyes revealing red emotionless pupils as Johnny reached down, taking his time as he grabbed the knife from her waistband.

"You see," He began as he dragged the knife along her collarbone, creating a thin red line as blood began to leak down the front of her shirt. "This would have been so much easier if she had just cooperated with us..."

Though she didn't show any signs of feeling pain from the cut, Brianna couldn't watch him hurt her anymore. "STOP IT!" She screeched as she watched her sister bleeding in front of her. What am I going to do?!

Dempsey growled, taking a few steps forward but stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Johnny move the knife to Isabella's delicate throat.

"Now, now..." Johnny teased, wagging his finger at the Marine while holding the blade firmly against her neck with his other hand and staring at Richtofen who looked just as pissed. "You would want my hand to slip, now would you? Hahaha!"

Looking towards the rest of the group, he grinned as he pressed the knife down slightly, drawing more blood as he made his demands.

"Drop your weapons now! All of you!"

"What did you do to her?!" Brianna screamed, stepping out from behind Tank as she took a few timid steps towards Johnny, noticing that her sister hadn't moved, or blinked for that matter, since she appeared. Laughing again, Johnny smiled at the blonde, intrigued by her forwardness and tenacity.

"Would you like to see? It's actually quite marvelous what this 115 is capable of..."

"115?" Richtofen murmured to himself, a worried expression crossing his features as he continued to watch the dark haired woman stare at them with a blank expression, almost as if she was staring right through them.

Ze element? But zhat is impossible-

"That's right doctor..." Johnny said, interrupting his thoughts as a mixed look of anger and sadness appeared on his face. "You would know what this element is capable of... Now watch as it destroys you all!"

Leaning down, Isabella's captor gently moved a stray lock of black hair behind her ear as he placed the bowie knife he was holding in her hand and whispered his next command before disappearing in a flash of red.

"Kill them all..."

Moving for the first time since her abduction Isabella leapt into action, swinging at the first person she laid eyes on, her own sister. Brianna's eyes went wide as she watched her sister close in on her with a bloodthirsty look, something she had never seen from her before as she jumped back to avoid her strike.

Missing her face by inches, Isabella growled as she quickly stepped forward again, hooking her leg behind her sister's and tripping her, throwing her to the ground instantly before anyone could move to stop her. Isabella raised the knife above her head, grinning evilly as she stared into Brianna's terrified face, ready to finish the job.

"HEY! ZOMBIE GIRL!"

Isabella looked up just in time to see Dempsey diving towards her as he tackled her to the ground, pushing her off Brianna in the process and sending the knife sliding across the floor a few feet away. Rolling on the ground a couple times, the Marine fought for dominance as he wrestled with the smaller woman, his bright blue eyes staring into her fiery red ones as he tried his best to restrain her.

Holy shit, was she this strong before?! He thought, struggling to hold her down as she snarled up at him, barring her teeth and looking towards the bowie knife that was a few arm lengths away...

"We've got company!" Nikolai yelled from the doorway on the other side of the room as the moans of the undead could be heard close by. Takeo turned around, facing the semi boarded up window behind him as he shot an oncoming zombie straight in the face, blowing the top of its skull off.

"Scheisse..." Richtofen cursed, picking up his Wunderwaffe and assisting his Russian comrade in covering the door. "Ve need to move!"

Dammit Samantha! Vhen vill you tire of playing zhese games?! Now is just not ze time... He thought, frowning as he aimed his weapon and fired a blast of electricity towards an oncoming group of zombies, frying their brains as they dropped to the ground.

"IZZY! Snap out of it!" Brianna called desperately from the sidelines as she and Hanna watched Isabella continue to fight the Marine, helpless to do anything.

A loud yell pierced the air, getting everyone's attention as Dempsey was knocked back, clutching his arm where Isabella had bit him as she used this opportunity to kick him off her and free herself. Her glowing red eyes locked onto where the knife was still located as she scrambled to her feet and made a lunge for it, her fingertips just touching the edge of the handle...

She was stopped short again however, as the blonde soldier grabbed her leg, dragging her back as he frowned at the possessed look on her face.

"HELL NO!" He yelled, pulling her back with all his might as she clawed at the ground trying to regain her weapon. "I'm not gonna let you do something you'll regret later!"

"Dempshey! Out of zhe vay!" Richtofen yelled over the sound of gunfire as he laid down his wonder weapon and pulled a syringe out of his doctor bag. Flicking the tip of the needle with his gloved finger, he eyed the purple tinted liquid before staring down at the young woman who was still doing her best to escape.

Hopefully zhis vill vork...

Staring into angry red iris', the doctor took a deep breath, steadying his hand before injecting the contents of the syringe into Isabella's arm, watching with a curious expression as she blinked a few times before passing out.

"What the hell is that stuff Doc?" Dempsey questioned as he watched Isabella's eyes close slowly, feeling her go limp in his grasp.

"A mild tranquilizer..." Richtofen replied in a serious tone as he grabbed his Wunderwaffe and stood up, brushing the dust from his uniform.

"And you just carry that stuff around all the time?!" The Marine continued, slightly surprised and rather disturbed as he watched the man ignore him as he turned around to face the other women.

"She's going to be okay, right...?" Brianna asked, staring up at the doctor with a worried expression as Hanna looked towards him as well, fearing his answer.

"Zhat remains to be seen..." He said lowly, glancing at Isabella's sleeping form before adjusting his cap and walking towards the stairs leading to Juggernog. "Only time vill tell. Now all ve can do is ensure our own survival..."

Hanna placed a comforting hand on the blonde's shoulder as she pulled her along towards the stairs. "Come on hun, we've gotta go... Shiyla!" The chowchow barked in response, trotting to Brianna's side and licking her hand affectionately before returning to her master, awaiting her next orders.

"Tak! Nikolai! Let's move!" Dempsey shouted, swinging his Galil over his shoulder and grabbing Isabella before running up the steps after Hanna. He flinched, tensing his arm as he brushed the bite mark, still oozing fresh blood, while looking at the sleeping woman who was to blame.

Tch, Dad was right... He thought sighing in annoyance as he chased the rest of the group down towards Pack-A-Punch. Women are nothin' but trouble...

Isabella: -_- "Oh, so you think I'm trouble?" *evil glare*
Dempsey: "No... I, uh... I mean..." *runs for cover*
Richtofen: "Hahaha! Dempshey is in trouble!" :D
Hanna: o_o
Nikolai: "That's why I kill my third, er... fourth... one of my wives!"
Brianna: 0_0
Takeo: *shakes head*
