WHOA!!!!! HOLD IT CORRECTOR!!!!!!!!! I don't mean anything by it. Even I
think Snake could kick Raiden's ass clear to the moon, BUT. It's just that
certain circumstances in the fic will make Raiden seem like more of a hero.
Anyway, I kind of have a feeling that several of his 'pansy' traits were
an act.
Forte & Spy Guy: WHAT???????????
Beelzemon: Sure. he said himself he was afraid of his past in the game. Probably so much so that he intentionally did certain things so that he could hide it. In my upcoming fic, he'll be forced to stop the act if he and Snake are to survive.
Spy Guy: I don't care if you torture me for this, but that is seriously whacked.
(Beelzemon then shoots Spy Guy in the crotch.)
Spy Guy: EEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! I JUST RECOVERED FROM FORTE SHOOTING ME THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Forte: Thank the Lord you have an intensified healing ability.
Chapter 16 - Victory?
Bill shifted nervously in his seat. He couldn't help but feel something was wrong. The monitor showed that the others were in one of Orion's private labs. THAT'S what made him nervous.
"I don't get it. Normally, he keeps those labs locked tight."
"Hey, what's that?" Jamie asked.
Bill looked at the monitor Jamie was pointing to. He immediately knew he had to tell the others what he saw.
"HOLD IT!!!!!!"
Elsewhere, the others were about to follow Orion.
HOLD IT!!!!!!!
They all covered their sensitive ears.
"BILL!!!!!"
Sorry, but he's installed a pressure plate trap in the room.
"A what?" Bit asked.
As long as his ID card is out of the room, it's armed. If you step on the wrong floor tiles, it'll trigger a gas trap.
Brad then looked down. He had almost stepped on a tile before Bill called.
"Where are they?"
Actually, there aren't very many, but there's several in front of the door to his private quarters. There's also next to his desk, and a wall.
"Probably his safe, and that painting on the wall." Leon said.
"Pretty careful guy."
Then Orion came back into the room. Since the door had a password, the hybrids had time to hide again. Orion came back to the safe, and opened it. He took the vial out again, and looked at it, as if his fate hinged on a decision involving it. He then set it in a keeper, and began examining the sample of blood from the baby.
"You can come out now."
The group tensed. They had chosen perfect hiding places. How did he know they were there?
"You can quit pretending you aren't there. I smell wet fur."
Jack and Brad looked down. They realized they forgot to dry off from when that merman splashed them. Brad had an idea though.
"Only one? I'm surprised that this isn't a full-blown invasion."
Brad stared down the man. Since Orion only found out because of wet fur, he could pretend to be the only one there. Brad could tell that despite the man's obvious handicap, that he was in the presence of someone who could easily kill him.
"If this is about the tests on the infants born here, you'd better just turn right around and make you way back to the forest sector."
Orion then hinted on the bloodstain on the floor.
"Besides that, I'm turning a blind eye to those wolf-hybrids from your sector."
Brad was surprised. He didn't expect any kindness from him, let alone to the hybrids he made.
"Surprised I knew? There ARE hybrids loyal to me. they LOVE the forms they have. although I must admit, Ryan's a bit of a loose cannon, not telling me anything important happening and all."
The others were surprised now. Ryan was the one that helped them a bit in the desert sector. Did he trick them?
"You ARE a hybrid that can still talk, aren't you?"
Brad decided to play along.
"So what of it?"
Orion recoiled a little. His hand flew to the magnum under his lab coat, as if to reassure him he was safe.
"I know why you're here now. to kill me, right? I've had that happen before."
Orion stood up, and walked over to the painting. His hand ran down it, and Brad then noticed a slight tear in it. Orion then turned to face him, gun drawn.
"WHAT THE?????"
"You have a choice. either you leave, or you die."
Brad backed away, and noticed that Naomi had gotten up in the rafters, ready to drop down on him. Brad turned, as if to leave. Orion watched him walk, but then noticed dust falling down. He looked up, and fired.
{BANG!!!!!}
"AUGH!!!!!!!!!"
He hit Naomi, and she fell. Then the other hybrids rushed Orion, and he was thrown into his desk. Beakers shattered and cut him, including the one vial. He lied there, unmoving. Brad ran to Naomi's side.
"Naomi??"
"Brad."
Orion had hit her in the side, and she was bleeding badly. Brad picked her up, and carried her as they left. Bill meanwhile, was finishing up disabling the anti Zoid turrets. He also had just hacked the systems locking the hybrids in. All the hybrids that Orion made were now free, and they took the chance to escape. As the torrent of hybrids rushed out of the gates, our heroes met up outside.
"Bill, can you help Naomi?"
"I can try."
He was cut off, and several hybrids stopped in fear as a shot rang out. Bit and the others turned to the gate to face Orion. He had his Magnum in hand, and a murderous glint in both eyes.
Forte: Wait a minute. doesn't he have only ONE eye?
Beelzemon: Remember those chemicals and that.
Forte: Yeah.
Beelzemon: It has SOMETHING to do with that.
Forte & Spy Guy: WHAT???????????
Beelzemon: Sure. he said himself he was afraid of his past in the game. Probably so much so that he intentionally did certain things so that he could hide it. In my upcoming fic, he'll be forced to stop the act if he and Snake are to survive.
