WHEN ZERGLINGS ATTACK
A part of a series of the Eyes of a Unit.
I was racing down the path of a dirt track. The terrain was icy. It was cold. My carapace was the only thing to protect me from the cold wind. At least it hadn't snowed where I was sprinting. Suddenly, a siege tank came into sight. I crushed the tank with the process of jumping onto it, ripping the porthole open and killing the barstards inside. I was known as a rank of 'Devouring One'. I was deadly and vicious.
*Mmmm, tasty!* I growled, ripping the meat off the skeleton. I finished eating my meal, when I saw the control panel.
A thing that definately destroys a base. My father, or at least a drone who had morphed into a hatchery, had destroyed a fortified Terran base with one of these. But that was with the help of others. Maybe I could destroy a small Terran base with me on all the controls. I rushed over to the place with the 'drive control'. It had no radar. So I went to the lookout seat. It had a periscope, a big screen and a......... radar! I knew how to work these somehow. I turned the radar power on with my claw. The screen came on, showing a terrain. *I guess that was the whole power,* I grumbled, scannning the area with all the lights and stuff on.
I looked back at the lookout panel radar. It showed nothing. I pressed a button with my claw. Suddenly, the grid on the radar grew larger. A green dot caught my attention. I ran over the drive control to aim the tank towards the dot. In other words, I went to the radar, turned what the humans called a 'steering whell' and went back to the radar to see if it was right. My dad had told me when I was back at the colony that 12 o'clock meant in front of the tank. And 6 o'clock meant behind the tank.
I lined up the green dot with 12 o'clock. Anyway, if I forgot to mention, Devouring Ones not only have brawn, but also have more brains than usuall. If I was a normal Zergling, I probably wouldn't know what 'what' meant. Also included in the package is wisdom. The best Zergling you could ever get. Well, I drove the tank towards the Terran encampment. There was simply a Bunker there. Then I thought about something.
If I could get past the bunker, I could then get through to the Command Center. I'd have to get past all the SCVs and security cameras, though. I manouvered the tank over to the central building. I slipped through the manhole and got ready for the hard bit. It was getting the blast door. I would have to wait for an SCV to arrive and make sure it doesn't witness my carapace, otherwise it will zap me with it's electric welder.
After three minutes, an SCV finnaly arrived. I managed to get next to it with being caught. The blast door opened. I ran inside a vent, just in time to see the door close. I would have another three minutes to get my butt on the dynamic. The SCV went out the door. I managed to get past five security cameras without being caught. It may have been a silent alarm.
Anyway, I rushed through another batch of security cameras when the next load came. I was not following the SCVs. I knew the way because of the signs. Finnaly, after a total of seven runs, I managed to get to the command hall. I had a lucky number. Great. My plan was to get to a self- destruct button. I had entered the control room. It was simply a 'look-for- life-forms' sensor. I ran through to the front of the hall. After running through the long halls, I noticed unarmed people controlling the. The best idea was to get to the commander. I sneaked up to him.
He noticed my growling, and turned around in time to see me take off his face......... litrelly. No-one seemed to notice... I guess that was because they were all wearing ear-blockers. I hit a red button, guessing that was self-destruct. Red lights flickered the building. A speaker thing said: "Self-destruct sequence in three minutes. All systems except for doors are shutting down. Doors will be opening and closing."
"Self-destruct? We've got to get out of here!" ordered one of the people. "Holy macaroni!" "Get outta here, she's gunna blow!"
*Excellent, and evil indeed,* I growled. I sprinted for my carapace to get out of this Terran building. If I was in a race with all these guys, I'd darn win obviously! Alarms were sounding. It was the perfect environment for a 'get out of there' type thing. You know, like Marines trying to escape an invasion of Zerg while there's a self-destruct going on... and you get three minutes.
No-one seemed to notice me. I was running through the blast door. I suddenly heard a sound. Next thing I knew, I was flying in the air. The self-destruct had gone off. The last thing I knew, I was flyng towards the ground. I was succesful. My carapace had saved my butt, unlike simple Marine suits and steel. All of the buildings were destroyed. Sucess. One Zergling, to defeat an encampment. I finnaly hit ground.
I was in the middle of a strange place. It was filled with dirt, with the outskirts of snow. I didn't know what was happening. Then I remembered. I had destroyed. Alone. I congratulated myself and scampered back to the colony.
Zornor: And that's it for this... chapter's story? BTW, the events in this are not everyday, in case your thinking how a single Zergling destroyed a full base, and why a Marine would gte a medal in 'everyday events'......... or at least you were told they were 'everyday events'.
