Chapter 17 - Explanations given.
Raiden was slowly bending back from how much force Drago was applying to topple him. He was in trouble. Then he had an idea..
"EEEEYYYYAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"
Raiden fell back, catching Drago off guard as he fell forward over him, and crashed into a shelf. Raiden could see Drago getting his tail and wings out from under some packages that fell on him. Raiden took the chance, and slashed at Drago, leaving a bleeding gash on his chest.
"RRRRAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Raiden had already noticed that the angrier Drago got, the less human he acted. He didn't really want to fight something that had no reasoning. He was off guard when Drago pounced on him, and knocked the sword away. Drago had him pinned down, and he couldn't get a gun. Raiden watched Drago open his mouth like he was going to eat him. He was afraid it was the end....
"STOP!!!!!!!!!!!"
Raiden looked to his left.
"MEI LING??????? GET OUT OF HERE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Drago's actions started to seem less aggressive.
"DEREK, PLEASE STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Derek??????"
Raiden then saw Drago's face. Despite not being a human face, he saw a mixed expression of surprise, fear, and sorrow. He could even see tears in the beast's eyes. Drago got off of Raiden, and stepped back. What surprised Raiden most was that Mei Ling willingly approached Drago, and held onto his arm as she led him out of the room.
"....What the hell just happened?"
Raiden blinked, and then woke up Snake and Meryl.
"Ow... My head...."
"Damn Frankenstein reject..."
"Snake. Meryl.... I think we need to talk to Mei Ling..."
Snake and Meryl both rubbed their eyes to make sure they weren't seeing things. They weren't. Drago was in the hanger Mei Ling was using to operate the Soliton Radar out in the field. He had bandages across his chest, on both hands, on his right arm, and a couple on his tail and wings. Both Pedro and Mei Ling either didn't notice him, or something else. Drago was sitting on an old bed in the hanger, while Mei Ling and Pedro were checking the systems.
"That's funny... According to the computer, Snake and the others are..."
"Right here." Snake finished, " Mei Ling, what the hell's going on!?!?!?!?!"
Mei Ling and Pedro jumped when Snake spoke.
"Snake, I...."
Then Raiden threw in his two cents.
"Why the heck did you call Drago 'Derek'?"
Mei Ling sighed.
"...All right.... I owe you an explanation.... Drago... Or Derek, which is his real name, is a friend of mine from when I was in collage.."
"Before you graduated and went into aviation at first, right?" Snake asked.
Mei Ling nodded.
"When I went into aviation and the military, Derek went into genetics and nanotechnology.... He refined the nanomachines you're using right now..."
"Drago did THAT?????? He seemed like a mindless monster to me.." Meryl said.
"Don't be so sure... He sure didn't seem mindless when I fought him in the warehouse..."
Mei Ling was about to answer, when Drago..Er..'Derek' spoke.
"I attacked you because I thought you were working for the Patriots.. They did this to me..." Drago said, and hit the bed when he finished.
"Oh my God.. Why would anyone do such a thing?" Meryl asked, disgusted.
"Because he challenged the Patriots... He studied genetics for himself, and proved that the original theory of 100,000 genes existing was the truth, among other genetic information... He was going to prove it to a gathering of over two hundred geneticists from around the world.."
"When the Patriots did this to me... I studied herpetology as a hobby, and they decided to 'give' me a more intimate view on it... I was lucky Dynamo had heard about the meeting, and knew the Patriots would get involved.... I'm only alive thanks to him, but.... I couldn't prove what I found.... I can't prove who I am, I'd be labeled a freak, and end up being caged, probed, and tested until I'm dead.... Mei Ling... How did you learn what happened to me?"
Then a youthful person walked in.
"I knew you told me to keep quiet about it to her, but I did notice that the Patriots little hey day with your DNA started affecting your mind..."
Then the three mercenaries turned to face what they thought was a ghost.
"DYNAMO???????????"
"What, did you think I was working for Liquid? I was, but I quit after I learned about Liquid hiring Enigma... She gets on my nerves too much.... the one you fought in the generator room was a VR controlled android that looked like me.... Falcon helped me pull of my 'K.I.A.' act..."
Dynamo then sat down on the floor.
"...I'm surprised Falcon cracked the secret to an android.... he's younger then I am.... Guess it came off from his skills with sculpture.... I gotta admit... His clay model of 'The Pieta' is a damn good forgery.. it even has Michelangelo's name on Mary's sash..."
None of them quite good what he was saying.
"....So you aren't art buffs, huh?"
"...I'm going to check in with Rose." Raiden said.
He activated the Codec, but Otacon answered Rose's frequency.
Otacon? Where's Rose?
The hospital...
The hospital??????? Is she all right?
Well... Ah... You're going to be a father sometime soon...
Raiden was stunned.
WHAT?????????????
Don't worry.. she'll be fine.. anyway, if you want data on Neo- Foxhound, call my frequency..
HEY WAIT!!!!!!!!! Do you have any background info on Falcon?
...Actually, I was looking it up. It seems here he's a young boy that was forced to raise himself after his parents were killed. He displayed an incredible knack for technology and art, and he made several remote controlled dolls using both talents.. the dolls looked and acted so much like real people, that he was accused of witchcraft, and shrinking human beings to that size. Of course, he proved otherwise, but he was picked up by a high classed robotics company in Japan, and has used some technology from there to make his VR suit. He provided the Japanese government with high quality robots that could even behave like human beings... He personally programmed them with 'persona' chips that gave them a way to behave and move in different ways. Rumor has it he even perfected androids. This was proven when the android double of himself he made broke down after an electrical accident, and it proved he snuck away from the company. He was picked up by Fox-hound for his abilities to do things impossible for human beings, which turns out that he had doctors replace his muscle tissue, and implant a special computer chip in his brain that's directly linked to the VR technology in the area around him. It allows him to manipulate it, and even work together with real objects, like Enigma's illusions, but everything you see is real to a point... It also seems he was sent to a prison for juvenile delinquents for awhile for forging sculptured masterpieces. He was caught only after he intentionally tried to be caught by signing his own name on a fake sculpture.
Pretty long history, huh?
Yeah, but all the interesting ones are..
