Disclaimer: the cloak Zavis uses in this chapter still belongs to Silver Meta Dragon so don't sue me because of it, I don't have any money so it doesn't really matter.
Note: this chapter will be a bit bloody so here is a warning, not sure if it is M material so if it is and it offends anyone I'm sorry.
As the light disappeared around his arms as Zavis slashed through his restraints and rolled off the operation table and took a quick measure of the room. The scientists were paralyzed with fear as Zavis calmly walked toward them as Jr. laughed in his head. One scientist regained his wits and hit the alarm button. Zavis paused as an alarm blared and the doors to the lab burst open as dozens of guards poured into the room and trained their gun sights on Zavis.
"Freeze human," one guard yelled, "or we'll shoot."
Zavis gave a small smile and sheathed one arm blade as he reached into one of his pockets. "You can't hit what you can't see," he said softly as he drew out a small black sphere. The guards readied themselves to fire as Zavis squeezed the disk and faded out of sight. The guard jumped slightly and started to scan the room to discover where Zavis had disappeared to as the scientists crept toward the door. When the scientists got within a few feet of the exit the fox in the lead stiffened for a moment as a light crimson line began to seep out of his fur around his neck. The scientist took a step back as the fox swayed a little before his head slid off into the floor. The scientists recoiled in horror as the fox's body slumped into the doorway. All the guards spun around and fired at area where the fox had fallen but one guard saw that they were wasting ammo so he yelled "ceases fire." As the guns quieted the guards began to scan the room once again. One young ferret gripped his SMG until his knuckles turned white as he muttered, "everything gonna be fine, nothing could happen nothing could." "Are you sure about that." The ferret whirled around and stared right into Zavis face. Before he raised his gun to fire Zavis ran him through with both blades. Zavis frowned slightly as he felt the warm liquid run over his hands and as Jr. began to howl in delight.
Kill them all, kill them all. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
Zavis tried to clamp down on Jr. blood lust but he soon found himself swept away in the waves of hatred. As he twisted the blades and bisected the ferret a blue-white light twisted around his right arm as he pulled out his shot gun and shouted a challenge to the remaining guards as he launched himself forward into a hail of gun fire.
Krystal tapped her foot impatiently as she waited for Henderson to finish with his medical check up. She sighed as she contacted Fox.
Fox.
Yeah Krystal
How much longer do you think well have to wait?
Who knows but I'm not in that big of a hurry.
What?
Well I figured we could get a bit of rest before we try to bust out of here—hey what are you doing?
Fox jerked slightly as a small jolt of pain flashed trough his body.
You think this a game McCloud.
Kry calm down, calm down. Gee, what did you do anyway?
I've been working on controlling other minds.
Why?
I thought it might come in handy at some point but all I can do so far is make someone experience a quick feeling like pain.
Hey Kry do you think you could—ouch. Hey what was that for?
Fox McCloud how dare you even think of something like that. Why I ever married you is beyond me.
Krystal I'm sorry ok, you know me this is how I deal with stress.
I know Fox I know, it's just I don't know this cell is making me crazy I…Fox shut Krystal out a fox walked up to his cell and tapped lightly on the side of the cell.
"McCloud you ready to get out."
"Who wants to know"?
"The name's Henderson."
"And."
"Look I'm here to help you escape."
"And I should trust you why"?
"Here," Henderson slide a key card and the force shield powered down. As soon as there was room Fox leapt and tackled Henderson to the ground and wrestled his gun away from him. As he got up Fox kept a bead on Henderson. Henderson gave a small smile and stood up.
"You want me to let the other out"?
Fox gave a quick nod as Henderson powered down the cells for Falco, Katt, and Krystal. Fox handed Falco the gun and embraced Krystal quickly before he rounded on Henderson.
"So how to we get out of here and where can we get some weapons"?
"There's a small planet runner that was confiscated a few days ago and all the armories are on lock down."
Fox thought for a moment before he asked, "why are the armories on lock down"?
"The human that was brought in with ya'll is going berserk on the lower levels."
"Zavis is doing what" Katt asked looking worried.
"He's ripping apart any force we send into the lower surgical bay. I got a look on the med bay cameras. The place looks like a battle field."
"Zavis wouldn't do that," Katt said as she swayed slightly and Falco reached over to steady her.
"Hey it's probably not him but that aparoid inside of him Katt." Falco muttered as he drew Katt into a light embrace.
"Falco who knew you had a sensitive side." Fox said with a laugh.
"Lay off fuzz but." Falco spit.
"Are we going to stand here talking or are we going to get out of here." Krystal asked and that brought everyone back to the current danger.
"Right Falco give me the gun, Henderson you take point and lead us to that ship," Fox turned to look at Katt, "listen I know you don't want to think bad of the human since he saved your life so look at it this way, he's providing a distraction so we can get away." Katt nodded slightly and Fox turned to Henderson and said, "Lead on." The group moved out of the prison area and into the main halls. Fox couldn't shake a sense of uneasiness around Henderson as he watched the fox check around a corner and he glanced a small metal patch at the base of his skull and wondered what had happened at the med bay.
Hyman raced into Pepper office and tossed the small tube that contained the queen core memory on Pepper's desk. He felt his hear racing as he thought about the alarms that were now sounded around the base. A small worm of fear told him I had something to do with the human. As he stood panting General Pepper muttered under his breath. "You're dismissed Hyman."
Hyman gave a quick salute before he replied, "Yes sir general." As he turned to leave he glanced back at Pepper and worked up enough courage to ask, "May I leave base sir." Pepper was mesmerized by the tube that held the core memory that his didn't responded until Hyman repeated the question, Pepper snapped out of the trance and gave a quick nod as Hyman hurried out of the base. Pepper smiled as he reached for the tube and laughed to himself. After planning for so long I finally have it within my grasp he thought.
Yes it's finally ours.
Pepper jumped to his feet and yelled out loud, "where are you, show yourself."
Please general no need to be so loud I'm right here.
Pepper whirled around looking for the source of the voice but he saw no one.
"Who are you I demand you show yourself," Pepper screamed as his voice cracked with fear.
Very well look to your left.
Pepper wheeled to his left and came face to face with a mirror that hung from the wall.
"What kind of trick is this," he shouted, "You can't be there that would me you're—no, no your dead no it can't be your dead." A soft whimper escaped from Pepper's throat as he ran his paws through his balding fur. "No it's impossible it can't be true."
Ah but it is my stupid little mutt. You thought I was destroyed with our late queen but I found a way to survive.
Tears began to stream down Pepper muzzle as he moaned into his paws, "No, no, no, no." Pepper dropped to his knees as his wails increased and the voice in his head howled with laughter.
Zavis slammed the surviving member of the last security team that had entered the med bay against the blood-drenched wall.
"Where's Hyman." Zavis screamed into the trembling furs face as Jr. pleaded with him to end the furs life. Zavis muted Jr. as he screamed at the fur again, "Where is he."
"I…I…I…" the fur stuttered before his eyes rolled back into his head and he fainted.
"Damn it." Zavis screamed as released the barrier that held back Jr. rage and extended both blades through the furs body. As the crimson waves washed over his hands Zavis dropped the body and let is slump to the floor. He turned and looked at the destruction he had caused. Bodies' whole and pieces littered the floor as a steady stream of blood flowed down the wall. It was if death itself had decorated the room and Zavis had been it tool. Zavis trembled with a mixture of rage horror and fear as he screamed in his mind
Great now I have to wait for the next group of guard to come so I can figure out where Hyman is.
Kill them all kill them all. Tear through this base and let their blood run free.
Shut up! I'm trying to think here. I don't know where I am or how to get out of this base and I have an insane aparoid in my head, what do I do now.
Use the door at the top level and go left until you reach an elevator.
What Jr.
Kill them Kill them let me bath in their blood, what human, I said nothing.
Then who did?
I did.
Authors notes: Ha I'm evil. I'm really sorry for the late update but I've been swamped all weekend. I also apologize for the, eh… gore in this chapter. For those of you who might think I'm crazy after this chapter you're probably right. Jr. won't be insane for long so I'm just having fun with it for right now. And ten point to those who guess who voice number three is. And anyone got a suggestion on how to write three-way mind dialogue? So hope you like the chapter, I hope you don't stop reading the story because of this chapter, review and tell me what you think.
