Sole Survivor
Bravo Team
Dan and the others noticed that, although the front of the plane was totally destroyed, the rear of the plane was in relatively good condition. It had been severely damaged, to be sure, but compared to the front it was in "good" condition. However, just like the front, the seats in the coach section were unoccupied. This was puzzling to Dan and the others.
"I don't understand this," said Chrissy, "Where are all the passengers? I mean, they couldn't have all just disappeared. This section of the plane is, for the most part, in one piece. There should be bodies in these seats."
"Well," said Tabitha, "I, for one, am glad we didn't find any."
Suddenly, as if on cue, the plane's bathroom door flung open, and a female body fell out on top of her.
"AAAAHH!!" Tabby screamed as the lifeless body knocked her to the floor, landing on top of her.
Instinctively, Jake drew his gun and rushed over to his sister's side, gun aimed at the head of the body.
"Wait!" shouted Dan, as he made his way back to Jake and Tabby. "Chris, check 'er out."
Chrissy, the field medic, checked for a pulse, and made a startling discovery.
Alpha Team
Rick and Joe slowly made their way back to the tent where the male victim's body had been eaten. They were looking for clues, and hopefully, evidence that their had been some illegal experimentation going on. Rick heard Liz's voice down near the dock.
"Rick, I've found something!"
Rick approached her and noticed she was crouched down, examining something on the ground.
"Look. There's some sort of slimy residue here. I'm guessing this is where the girl had been attacked, just before she made it into the lake. There's signs of her dragging her foot, all the way to the water."
"Yeah, but that's not all." Ken mentioned, "Look at the way the drag marks seem to double in depth from this point on. Whatever attacked her, tried to follow her into the water, but she drowned before it could get to her."
All the talk about things trying to attack girls around, or in, water made Britney a little nervous. She knew all too well what the girl must've been feeling as she struggled to swim to the raft, only to surrender to the dark depths of Bentzen Lake. Frankly, the thought kind of made her sick to her stomach.
"Uh guys, I'm finding this a little unsettling. I mean, with it being my first mission as a S.T.A.R.S member and all."
Tiffanie knew her sister too well. Britney's unsettled feeling had much more to do with her fear of drowning, than her nervousness about this being her first official mission.
"Liz," Rick started to ask, "Is there any way you can get a sample of that stuff for analysis?"
"Sure. I'll only be a minute."
Just then, someone, or something, came up out of the lake and slowly began to move toward Liz.
"Holy shit!" exclaimed Joe, as he saw the human-like creature, and he fired his assault rifle, filling it's torso with bullets.
The force of the impact knocked it down. As Liz jumped up to move away, it began to get back up.
"What the hell?!" exclaimed Joe, "How is that damn thing still living?"
As it got back to it's feet, the creature moved toward Tiffanie, but not for long, as a shot from Ken's 9mm 'samurai's edge' put a bullet in it's left temple, killing it instantly.
Bravo Team
"She's alive!" exclaimed Christine, as she checked for a pulse.
The girl's eyes fluttered open and she screamed as she saw the members of Bravo team close in on her.
"Who...Who are you?" The girl asked. She had a slight Australian accent, as if she had only lived in Australia for few years. She looked to be about college age, and her dark brown hair looked black in the dim light. Her surprise was evident in the widened gaze of her green eyes. Dan introduced himself and the others by name, and then stated their business.
"We're members of the International S.T.A.R.S Bravo team. We're investigating some strange events that have taken place here recently. We stumbled upon this plane, and decided to investigate. Miss?..."
"Alden," she replied, "Taylor Alden."
"Miss Alden," Dan continued, "I know you're a bit overwhelmed at the moment, but I must ask, what happened here? What happened to all the other passengers?"
"I, I...I'm not sure really. I was in the bathroom, when the captain announced that we needed to put on our oxygen masks, because of some loss in cabin pressure. I was on my way out the door when I heard a thunderous boom, like an explosion. Just then, the plane lurched, and I fell back. I felt my head hit the wall, and then I blacked out. That's all I remember. I'm terribly sorry, I really can't say what happened...to..." Taylor began to trail off as she got her first look at the carnage.
"Oh my God, " she said, as her eyes welled up, "There was an explosion, wasn't there? Am I the only one left?"
"We don't know. I hate to sound morbid, but there's no way everyone would've survived this crash. Frankly, I'm surprised you did. The thing is, there are no bodies. It's like they all disappeared. Whatever happened ma'am..."
Taylor cut him off, "Please, call me Taylor." she said, still upset and shaken.
"As I was saying ma...uh, Taylor, we believe that you are the sole survivor."
