Operation: Flanks for nothing.
While Cobra's leaders are busy ruining the wedding of Lifeline's sister, one of it's R&D labs is performing it's duties. "How's the progress looking for the latest specimen?" Dr. Mindbender asks a subordinate over a screen. Said specimen had been created when Serpentor found out about his "older brother", and demanded that the process be recreated. It didn't result in the exact same creature, but they were seeing positive results.
"It's at 93% of it's full growth, Dr., and we were just about to clean it's cage again." The underling tells him. "How about you?"
"It couldn't be more according to plan. Four of the subjects took over over a civilian trolley car., and vere this closed to killing their own general, vhen-" Dr. Mindbender is saying before a second subordinate heads to the first and points to a screen causing the first to stand up. "Vhat is the matter?"
"Seal that area off right now!"/"On it."/"Dr., the secondary holding area's door is jammed." The two researhers say as the former transfers the visual of a green mass of flesh with needle like teeth.
"Release the pacification gas, and send a repair team." Dr. Mindbender instructed, only for the Bio-annihilator to reach for the nozzles and tear them down.
"Damn it, it's not working; and it's...it seems to be testing the cage's other door,! All security personnel, the specimen is attempting to breach it's containment!" The lab's director says as he sees steam start coming off a slightly bigger door. "Dr. Mindbender, send a transport to get us out of here."
At this point, however, Dr. Mindbender finds the situation useful for observation purposes. "I think not; there's a chance the Joes could track any such transport to thatlocation. But do not vorry, your noble sacrifice's vill demonstrate the bio-annihilator's potential to Serpentor." He tells the director as both watch the creature killing Vipers and researchers by the dozen.
"Wait, please...Mindbender!"
