Chapter 4 Prey
Written by: Atikkin
Author note: Here we go again.
Heero stared into the darkness of the hallway. He saw a figure just standing there. He heard a voice, but he wasn't just sure who it was. Who ever it was said his name. Heero stepped forward just a bit not wanting to alarm the person, and probably attack him.
"Who are you?" Heero asked the stranger. All of the sudden there was silence. Heero waited for a reply, next thing he heard... was.the stranger's laughter. The person sounded almost like a maniac. Heero had a puzzled look on his face.
"You don't recognize my voice, Heero? Have you forgotten me all ready? It was only a year and six months since I have been in comatose," the sinister voice said. Heero blinked a few times, and realized who was standing in the dark.
"Relena......." Heero said.
"Well he remembers......" Relena said icily. "Did you forget about me Heero? Did you leave me alone in the dark? Were you just waiting to get rid of me, or did you want to fuck.....the now Mrs. Yui up, before you could ever utter a word to me? You must enjoy shattering hearts........I haven't to own one; one you've given to me," Relena said. Heero listened to her voice. That didn't sound like her. Her voice was as cold as his voice. It made his spine go cold ever moment she had spoken. But other than that, it was in a deeper tone. She almost sound like she was growling......like an animal.
"Relena......are you all right?" Heero said. The words just jumped out of his mouth.
"So you don't want to talk about this subject?" Relena muttered. "I guess you're what I expected; a man who doesn't want to feel guilt. But other than that, you're a liar and a coward."
Heero eyes narrowed. What did she just call him?
"I hope you can prove..."
"That you're a coward," Relena said cutting him off. She said to calmly. "You didn't have the guts to just tell me."
"There was nothing going on between us—"
"THERE WAS HEERO!" Relena suddenly snapped screaming. Heero actually jumped. He stared almost shocked. Relena had never broken a fuse like that. As long as he's known her, she's never had that kind of temper. "There was.....everything.....you awoken something in me and then you.....in open arms let me waltz in. Yet you were so affectionate and caring-- I fell for you."
"Relena....look we don't have time for this."
"We have lots of time, Heero. Tell me something.....and I want an honest answer."
"Relena....!" Heero said starting to loose his temper. The killer could be anywhere. He knew. For some odd reason, something in Heero's gut kept telling him that the killer was near.
"Why do you hate me?" Relena asked. Heero just stared. He thought he was shot by some rocket launcher.
"Relena.......I don't hate you," Heero said quickly. "We need to get out of here; someone is killing all the people who are on this floor.
"I'm aware of that," Relena said. Heero blinked. How can she say that so calmly?
Trowa kicked the vent. He crawled to the floor, as Duo jumped down, following him from the ceiling. Duo placed his sunglasses on, so he can see the dark.
"See anything?" Trowa asked.
"Yeah, yeah, give me a second," Duo said pressing buttons. He saw nothing. "It's clear," Duo said.
"All right let's get moving-"Trowa paused.
"What is it?" Duo asked.
"Is that Heero's voice?" Trowa asked. Duo listened, and noticed a strong, deep voice echoing through the halls.
"Yeah, it is," Duo said.
"We should go," Trowa said.
"I'm leading," Duo said walking off. 'Well obviously,' Trowa thought following.
"Listen to me, Relena. We don't have time. I don't' know who the hell is here, but he killed—"
"It's a bitch not a bastard," Relena informed. Heero paused. 'Since when does she talk like that?' Heero thought. He shook the thoughts off.
"Relena, I don't care about the gender crap. We need to get out—"
"We..... I never thought you'd actually engage to that sort of attitude towards me. Why so, Heero? You're a married man remember?"
"Relena don't' make this any harder. I'll carry you if I have to!"
"Do what you want. But you're not going to carry me anywhere," Relena said. "In fact," she paused. "I hope you enjoy.....you're stay......there's all kinds of Hell in this-- fucked up place."
"Relena...." Heero hissed. There was no reply. Heero stared. "Relena," He called again. He heard something. He listened hard, and thought he heard something sliding across the floor. "What the hell...." He muttered.
"Heero," someone called. Heero blinked, and stepped back, where he saw another hall way. Out of the darkness, Duo pops out. "Hey there you are," Duo said.
"Did you find Relena?" Trowa asked.
"Yeah," Heero said.
"Well where is she?" Duo asked.
"I don't know. She was just here, and the next moment she was gone," Heero said. There was a hint of sadness in his voice.
"Hey, man, we don't have time for the blues. We got to get the emergency lights. This is ridiculous that we have to walk in the dark like this," Duo said.
"Do you know where the control room is?" Trowa asked.
"I've been in and out of the hospital to see Relena I dont' know how many times.....why wouldn't I know?" Duo asked.
"Excuse me," Trowa said.
"Let's go," Heero said.
"All right, let's-holy shit!" Duo said.
"What's wrong?" Heero and Trowa asked.
"Hey, Trowa," Duo said.
"Yeah," he answered.
"Take out the flash light man," Duo said. Trowa dug in his jacket, and pulled out a flash light. After he turned it on, Duo pressed his hands down, and there they all saw blood. They're eyes expanded.
"He was here," Trowa said. Trowa raised the flash light higher. Heero turned his head; there he saw a suppressed face. He backed up, and saw a man hanging from the ceiling. Duo's jaw dropped. The man was hanging upside down. His entire body was skinned, completely. He gulped, and felt his stomach churning.
"OH crap," Duo said as he puked all over the floor. Heero covered his nose.
"What the hell did you eat?" Trowa asked.
"A king size burrito," Duo said.
"You ate the entire thing didn't you?"
"HEY I DIDN'T KNOW THIS WAS GOING TO BE AROUND!"
"Shut up, you want him to hear?" Trowa said.
"Yeah, yeah, bring in on," Duo said wiping his mouth. He stared at his own puke, and grossed out. "Let's get out of here," he said.
"I couldn't agree more," Heero said rubbing his nose to get rid of the smell. They all began to walk into the hallways, until someone's phone started to beep.
"I got it," Heero said. He flipped the phone open, and pressed it against his ear.
"Yo Heero," Wufei said.
"What is it?" Heero asked.
"You'll never get this. But the hospital has genetics records on Relena."
"What......" Heero said.
"I'm in the hematology office; seems like this lab has some stuff about Relena."
"What would genetists want to look at Relena's genes for?"
"I don't know, but it's fishy. I'm hacking into the systems main computer, right now."
"Is the power back on line?" Heero asked.
"No, this room has its own generator," Wufei said.
"All right then get whatever files you need. The rest of us will look for Relena."
"Roger," Wufei said hanging up.
"What's going on?" Duo asked.
"Wufei found something in the hematology office," Heero said.
"Why is he there?" Trowa muttered.
"The feds were trying to blow the place up. Other than that, Wufei found something's about Relena in the hematology lab. I'm not sure why anything about Relena's blood had to be checked."
"That sounds fishy," Duo said.
"What do you think Wufei says about all this?"
"Did you hear something?" Trowa asked after the three heard something gasping. Duo positioned his sunglasses, and caught someone sitting at the corridor.
"There's someone sitting over there," Duo said.
Trowa lifted the flash light. "OH God!"
Relena looked from the other side of the corridor. She stared at the three men, helping the injured person. She raised a brow. Had she not killed that one? She felt her eyes burn as her sight changed. Everywhere was darkness, while three people stood out in different colors. The injured person was nearly blue......which means he was close to death.
She snorted. 'Well as least he's almost dead,' she thought. She noticed something in Heero's back pocket; a gun. She glared. A growl escaped her lips.
Duo jerked his head. He looked around. "Did you...."
"Yeah," the other two said.
"That sounded like an animal," Trowa said.
"Oh duh, Sherlock, tell us something we don't' know," Duo said.
"Shut up," Heero hissed. He looked towards the corridor. He caught a glimpse of something. Two orbs were glowing in the dark. Heero looked harder, and saw that they were eyes. Heero's glare hardened. 'So you're the one,' he thought. Next moment, Heero knew, those eyes were yellow. Heero's glare nearly dropped, as he saw those. 'What the hell is...?' he thought. Suddenly the eyes vanished in the darkness.
"Hey man, what's the matter?" Duo asked.
"Look over there do you see anything?" Heero asked. Duo looked very Heero was pointing. There was nothing.
"Nothing dude, why did you see something?" Duo asked.
"Yeah.....but....where did...?" Heero said.
"Don't let.......it fool you. It's clever," the dying man said. Trowa blinked. 'It,' he thought.
"Hang on, what do you mean? I don't know understand what you mean by 'it', please tell me what's going on? Who's the target?" Trowa said. Suddenly the passed out, and his pulse stopped right then and there. "Damn it," Trowa cursed.
"What's wrong?" Heero said.
"Man down," Trowa informed.
"Ah shit," Duo said.
"Did he say anything?"
"Yeah, he muttered something about watching out for the subject. And it's clever," Trowa said.
"It....?" Heero echoed.
"Okay dude, now that sounds....
"AHHHH!"
The three jumped out of their skins.
"Please no!" the man screamed shooting his submachine gun. Relena moved within the dark, allowing the man to shoot. She thought some bullet flew pass her head. She jerked to the corner, and landed on her knees. She growled and backed away.
She glanced at him, and noticed that his body was all red. He appeared to be in great shock. She tilted her head, and thought she saw something strange. His heart.....? It was pulsating rapidly, almost out of control. She raised a brow. 'Well, well,' she thought, as she grinned.
Then there was a growl in her mind. It shook her. Relena halted, once she heard it in her mind. Something in her was telling her not to harm him. She felt one side of her head being pierced by some serious pain. Relena backed up against the wall and leaned against it. She sniffed, and felt something warm run down her mouth. Relena pressed against her mouth and her nose. Her vision noticed something rather purplish against her finger tips. Relena wiped it against her other hand, and then noticed something. She stared at her palm which was covered by her victims' blood. She sniffed. Then it became clear......
"But why....?" She whispered. She narrowed her eyes. Something wasn't right.....something wasn't right at all. She felt something inside beginning to burn. She wasn't sure if she wanted to trust it. She glared at the man whose heart continued to pulsate uncontrollably.
"You know....." she said loudly. "You're going to have a heart attack in less and a minute!"
"WHO THE FUCK, ARE YOU? WHERE THE FUCK, ARE YOU? WHO THE FUC--!" the man suddenly choked as he felt his heart beginning to pressure powerfully. He collapsed to the ground, while pulling the trigger to the gun, as the bullets sprayed.
Relena stared at the fallen body. She raised a brow. "Well.....I did warn you." She said shaking her head. She walked away towards another hallway. 'Now to find that damn elevator,' she thought. She stopped for a second. She heard voices. She curved her eyes towards one door. There was no label upon it. Relena felt her tongue with a-now-sharp incisor, and tasted blood seconds later.
"Okay," she said. She noticed the electronic door, and the manual locks. She tilted her head to the side.
"Who do you think was screaming, man?" Duo said.
"I don't' know," Trowa said. Suddenly there was a loud crash. Heero jerked his head to the barred gateway beside the three.
"Wow," Duo said.
"Bars," Trowa said. "Why would they be here?"
"This is the criminal quarters right?" Heero asked.
"Yeah," Duo said. "But I don't think Relena's in there man."
"No," Heero said. "But the sound is coming from here."
"Relena could be in there," Trowa said.
"How so.....?"
"Some of these corridors don't have bars like these; the others have security shields that block the hallways. This barred pathway is just the fire escape route for the criminals."
"No shit?" Duo asked.
"No shit," Trowa answered.
"Well then," Heero said. "Let's see if we can get it open."
"Hold it," Duo said. "He opened his jacket, and pulled out a canteen. The two blinked at what their comrade was up to. "Just a little insurance, with some liquid nitrogen," Duo said. He sprayed something against the bars.
"And where did you get your hands on liquid nitrogen?" Trowa asked.
"I stole it, what do you think I did?" Duo said. The bars made a crackling noise, as Duo kicked the bars down, and they shattered by the impact.
Relena stopped, and turned around slowly. "Hello," she muttered after hearing that noise. "Now then I wonder, what caused that," she said. A light caught her eye. She closed her eyes suddenly. The light was a little too much. She moved her eyes around until everything went back to normal. Now Relena has a small problem....darkness.....she couldn't see well. She did see the small red light.
Curious, Relena pressed against it. Light flashed from above her. Relena looked up. Generators began to operate, the security door did as well, but it was badly destroyed, after Relena had kicked it open. She turned her attention to the room. There was a glass surface in her way. There were glass sliding doors as well. They were highly tinted, as if they were built to not allow anyone to see through.
"Oh," she spoke. "Now this looks fun," she said.
"Hey the lights are on," Duo said.
"Someone must have triggered the back up generator," Trowa said.
"Let's move," Heero informed.
Wufei looked through file to file. Most of them were written upon Relena's years in as a youth, but there was nothing that regarded about her birth. Her birth certificate was also not in the records. Wufei stared to get a bad feeling in his gut. Something just wasn't right to him.
"What is all this? Why are they so concerned about Relena, like this?" He spoke out loud. "Ah damn just get the files, and then I'm out of here," Wufei said. He pressed a disc into the slot, and tapped into the mainframe to get the copies.
Relena pushed the red panel upon the double doors. They slid smoothing at each side. 'Oh nice,' she thought. She peeked inside, and notice lots of computer equipment. She snorts. 'Whatever,' she thought. But then saw some of the visual upon the computers display. 'Now what are they doing with my biography?' she thought. She pressed the down key, and began to read out what these people were doing to her.
'Subject is over stable from the comatose. Symptoms of 'the metaphase' defection only exposes by the subject's personal affairs. The subject is drawn by anger, and has been having temper tantrums for the past year. Doses of Nitrogen, Potassium, and Deoxy Ribose Nucleic Acid (DNA), keep her stable.'
File 1- Observation report"Well, well, since when did I have temper tantrums?" Relena muttered. "Wasn't I asleep?" Relena moved to another file what said to be 'Physical observation.' After tapping 'enter' all Relena saw were her x-rays. 'What's wrong with my bones?' she thought curiously. She read the caption at the side of a strange looking x-ray of her bones. Relena wasn't sure what to make out of it. It was too strange.
'Subjects physical form appears to be advancing to a stage of a higher metamorphosis, and signs of continuous cell division. Sooner of later the subject may suffer from Trisomy; in later cases Leukemia. No details in which may occur in future events. There are traces of iron, potassium, sodium, argon, and heavy traces of steroids mixed in subject's DNA.'
'Subject's DNA continues to multiply an unusual multiplication of red blood cells. T-Cells are beginning to form into an evolved structure.
'Subject's skeletal and neural structures, seem to be forming into 'Primal' physical structures.'
'Now what the hell is Primal one?' she thought. She looked at her arms. They looked tighter against her bones, but other than that she feel as if something in her body was sucking up everything that is human inside her. 'Primal one...what is Primal one?'
Relena grabbed the mouse, and pulled down the arrow to anywhere that says 'Primal one.' Apparently there were none. Relena growled, and jumped to the search program.
The monitor display in red 'Top Secret'; Relena felt herself getting rather frustrated with this mystery bullshit. Why is she here? Whose keeping her captive in this hell-hole, where nurses would give her injections that hurt like hell, security guards wanting to kill you, a butler who leaves you alone, but more likely a man you thought you'd loved is now nothing more but an enemy-'enemy?'
"Enemy......what the hell am I thinking?" Relena muttered. "What the hell is going on with me?"
She closed her eyes.
Roars rumbled through the skies, as well as the darkened lands. People of old civilizations danced, and leaped around, while blood had coated them. They screamed out to the skies, as the roars sang through the night.
The skies were dark, but bright lights....almost like stars shined magnificently as the storm beat through the clouds, creating a troublesome dance of lightning.
Relena stood on her feet, and watched all this. What did it all mean? What was going on?
She heard herself breath. Her breathing was strange. She breathed out again, and noticed that she was making a strange sound out of her mouth. Was her voice cracking up from something? She stopped breathing for one moment. But then the same sound rang against her ears. She blinked.
'I'm not...' she thought. She spun around, and there it was!
Relena screamed. Her voice rang out and echoed through eat all way. But she didn't really sound like herself. It was mixed. Her voice was normal at first, until it became a monstrous roar.
"OH GOD!" her jumbled voice screamed out in agony. Her mind felt like it was going to explode from something. "AHHH, SHIT, WHAT THE FUCK, IS THIS?!" She screamed.
Heero heard her. It had to be her. He knew that voice. He rushed ahead of the two.
Duo had trouble keeping up with him. Trowa on the other hand calmly glided through out the hall way.
"Where is she, man?" Duo said.
"Shut up!" Heero said getting frustrated. He reached a hallway, and noticed that there were dead bodies, all over the place. Most of them were skinned, and their internal flesh was exposed. Some of their guts were hanging off of them.
Duo turned around, and looked the other way. Trowa gulped.
"Who the hell could have...?" Heero said.
"That's one hell of a murderer," Duo muttered. Duo realized that there was blood against the wall he was leaning on. After he saw it, he backed away quickly, and stepped on something. He looked down, and saw intestines. Duo cringed. "Oh man," he said before he started to vomit again.
Heero rolled his eyes.
"SUCK IT UP, DUO!" he snapped.
"Well excuse-"Duo puked again.
"Heero this is something some people cannot handle. I'm almost ready to vomit," Trowa said.
Heero growled. "We have to find Relena!"
Relena felt her head beginning to throb. It was one massive headache. She sighed, and looked at the corner, which caught her eye. She looked again, and saw a card surrounded by a glass safe. There was a coding device, but like the other things Relena could not open.......she breaks the glass, and took out the card.
"Primal," she said as she read it. She looked at the computer. 'I have to know,' she thought. 'Why are they keeping me here? Why am I like this?'
Relena slashed the card at the card-reading device against another computer. Sure access denied. But what she was looking for was the information of the card. The monitor displayed something, and Relena glared. Part of her knew it was logical, but the other part of her was pretty surprised. This made her rather.....pissed.
'Well, well,' she thought. 'Looks like Pagan has a lot to explain,' she thought. She held the card for a second, before she puts it in a small pocket in her pants.
Time to get out, Relena. Are you scared yet? Are you going to chicken out like some people...
"Shut up," Relena said. She peeked out the hallway to make sure no one was around. She looked up to find the lights on. She growled. She had much better advantage in the dark. The light wasn't a good friend right now. 'Damn it, this fucking stinks,' she thought.
She thought she saw Heero pasting by from the other hallway. She blinked. But then she saw Trowa and Duo. Duo began to look her way. Relena jolted behind the door.
Duo paused. He thought he saw something. He looked ahead, and saw the other two going. He shook his head, as he continued walking.
Relena poked her head out of the door again. 'Fuck,' she thought. A noise caught her ears. She tilted her head, and heard some voice that belonged to men. 'Oh, joy, more to slaughter,' she thought.
"All units search and retrieve subject. If you see or contact any of those Gundam boys....have them removed immediately," the voice from the radio said. All of the soldiers began to move in different directions. All they had come across was blood, and corpses. Fear had arisen from the grave, and now they all saw something powerful in this place.
"Jesus Christ," a man said.
"What's in this place?" Another demanded.
Relena tapped against the generator. "The last thing you'll ever see," she answered the man from afar. She fists bashed right through the metal surface. Her knuckles began to bleed.
The lights went out.
"That's better," she muttered.
"Ah, not again," Duo said.
"Shit," Heero hissed. "Who keeps fucking with the lights?" Heero demanded.
"DON'T MOVE!" someone screamed. The three glanced at a group of men with large rifles. "You three will return to the lower levels. You are trespassing."
"I'm not trespassing shit. I'm here to find..."
"Who ever you're trying to find, you may look some other time. We have a serial kill here in this hospital. Now remove yourself from this place at once."
Heero, Trowa, and Duo growled almost in anger. The men kept their rifles in check, but one of them noticed a strange crackling sound from upon. Suddenly a hand covers his face. He screamed out as he was taken up to the ceiling. His neck cracked the next moment, as blood fell to the ground.
The men stared, as they saw the corpse fall down the ground, only to find that the body was missing a head. Everyone looked up, and saw nothing.
Duo blinked, and heard something from behind him. Trowa thought he heard that as well. The two turned their heads just slightly. They saw a pair of yellow eyes staring at them. Duo nearly leaped out of his skin.
"Wow-"He said. Suddenly a head came right at him. Duo held it for a second, before he screamed, and threw the head of the dead officer. Heero spun around, and saw the figure with yellow eyes again. They shined brightly before vanishing.
"GET OUT OF THE WAY," one of the soldiers said before they started firing in the hallway. The walls began to crumble from all bullets flying. Heero growled. 'Who the hell was that?' he thought.
The men stopped firing at whatever. They didn't know what they could've hit. One of them looked harder in the dark. He pressed a small switch to the flash light upon his sub machine gun. He moved the light around trying to see what he could've shot. The other men looked as well, and saw merely nothing in the darkened hall way.
Heero's eyes narrowed, and looked everywhere. There was nothing. 'Where did......' he thought.
"This is creepy," Duo said.
"You can say that again," Trowa said.
The men lowered their weapons. "Proceed to search. Have these men returned to the lower floors," the commander said.
"Hey man, I don't think you get it..." Duo said.
"I don't think you get it sir," the commander said. He began to walk with his troops towards the dark hallway.
"You know," someone said from above. The three Gundams nearly jumped. "He doesn't get it."
"Who......" Duo said. The voice was familiar. Duo just wasn't sure by that tone of voice. Heero made that voice repeat in his mind over and over, until he knew the owner. 'Relena,' He thought. 'It can't be.'
"What's going on?" The commander said. Suddenly a large hand grabbed his entire cranium. With enough force, the hand tore the commander's head from his neck. His body fell to the ground instantly. From that moment, the other soldiers commence fire at whatever was on the ceiling. There was nothing.
"Damn it," Heero said. "Hey," He said to the soldiers behind him. They didn't speak. They were too shocked at what just happened. Duo growled, and smacked one of them upside the head.
"Hello, are you still on Earth? Give me that damn thing!" Duo said taking the rifle.
The men continued shooting up at the ceiling. They ignored from what was below them.
"BOO!" Relena screamed, and her hands struck right at two men's groins. Relena thought about Heero for a second. A growl escaped from her before she pulled them off. The men screamed out in mid-terror. "I should've asked if you had kids," she hissed, before she stuck them right into their mouths. "I hope you're good as this job, because you're wives probably won't do it for you......anymore," she said. She punched both of them, their faces bashed within their skulls.
She whirled around, and her mouth met the live man's stomach. Her teeth sunk right into him, as she began to tear at his epidermis. Her hands widened the gap she had made. Then with the now lengthened finger nails, she raked up the guts that began to fall obediently from his body. The man stopped breathing, and shuddered. He slid from the wall to the floor, and a puddle of blood began to form. Relena tilts her head.
"Shit happens," she muttered. She didn't even think saying it. It just came out of her mouth. She slowly turned her head around, and saw Trowa fighting with one of the soldiers trying to get the rifle from him. Her head twitched. She wanted to fight. 'Oh no,' she thought. 'Not now.' Relena moved down the hallway, and began to run. She needed to find another way out, since there are soldiers swarming all around. She knew they'd be all over the elevator. But then again, she could kill them all. For some odd reason, she felt that she could.
'What are you saying?' she thought. 'How can you be so confident of killing them? This is ridiculous. One day, I find Heero with some bitch, and their fucking around. Next thing, I have a nervous break down due to stress. I was practically raped. I don't remember anything that happened over a year ago after the accident. I hear my brother doesn't want to talk to me. Now I'm killing......how the hell, am I killing these people? Where did this strength come from anyway? Why the hell do I enjoy it?' There were so many questions. She didn't know where to start searching for answers.
Relena glanced at the card once again. 'This will get all my answers. I just wonder how I'm going to get there without anyone noticing.'
She growled, so suddenly. She felt her head. It was throbbing with greater pain this time. Before it was only her body twitching and struggling, as if something in her was trying to get it. And apparently it did when she attacked all those people. It had a feeling it was over yet. But right now, she was more worried about her head. Relena hissed as it began to throb, in many waves of pain. It felt like her mind was exploding from something.
'Why in God's great name does everything on my body hurt like hell?' she thought. She grunted, trying to sigh her way out of the pain. Her ears were banging, as she heard trouble coming. 'Ah crap,' she thought muttering. 'More of those shit soldiers, instead of foot soldiers. Killing them be too easy.'
She turned her gaze at a familiar door. She tilted her head, and saw the corpse that was inside. Relena raised a brow, and then things became rather clear for her. A very vicious idea just popped into her head. Relena curled her fingers, and felt for the sharp claw that was on her index finger.
The soldiers began to move in packs. The covered every corner and hallway on the floor. The picked up the corpses, and placed them in black bag-gages. The soldiers stood guard at certain doors, as large lamp posts were set near their feet. They faced the hallway, which they think the enemy may be hiding. Almost five to six soldiers stood guarding
The three boys observed of how these soldiers were working. They had bombs set at the hallway aside from them.
"What do you their trying to blow up in here?" Duo asked.
"I don't' know," Trowa said. "But their not going to allow these other patients to live; these feds are screwed up."
"I can't believe it," Duo said.
Heero was silent. He kept thinking about the person with yellow eyes. Was it Relena? Could it have been her? Did she actually kill those people? Heero struggled internally. He wasn't sure if it was true. Relena...a killer....sure he speculated that she was, but he didn't think she was like this. He thought she was like Hannibal doctor....he didn't remember the name. Perhaps knew, since he saw that movie 'Silence of the lambs,' too many damn times.
'Relena,' he thought. 'What happened to you? Am I the cause?'
"Hey Heero," Duo said. The perfect soldiers stared at his comrade. "You cool?" Heero only grunted in response. 'No not really,' he thought.
"Well this is interesting," Keyes said suddenly appearing. "I told you boys to back off, and now look what happens. You boys are walking on physical evidence of a crime more violent than any other we have came across. Right now we have trouble finding the suspect."
"Hey man, we were worried about Relena..."
"I don't' care about your issues, Mr. Maxwell. As far as I'm concern you boys are trouble. I don't what the hell were you thinking. You got one of your own in the hematology office doing some bullshit, I don't' know what, then another running around in the stairway, and there you three are in the very floor where a murderer could have capped you any time."
"I don't' care if I die. If it comes, it comes," Heero said.
"Excuse me, Mr. Yui; no one is donating their lives to death. You violated the entire operation."
"How did we do that?" Heero said almost demanding.
"Where suspect?" Keyes said.
"Where's Relena?"
"I don't know," Keyes said. "I thought you might."
Heero was silent.
"Right," Keyes said walking away. Heero gritted his teeth, as he gripped his hand into a tight fist.
'That son of a bitch, I should just kill him and get it over with,' Heero thought.
"HEY WE GOT A SURVIVOR!" someone screamed out. He headed back into a room, where he talked to a woman whose body was shaking rapidly. Her face was tattered and blemished with bruises and cuts. Her jaw was torn completely apart. Her eyes were missing. Her hands appeared to be covered with cuts, as her fingers slowly landed to the ground.
"Oh man," one of the men said entering. "Get the medics here now."
"Someone, get those three out of here," Keyes ordered.
"Yes sir," the soldier said. The man grabbed Duo, Trowa, and Heero. Duo struggled.
"Get your fucking hands off of me!" Duo snapped. Suddenly a rifle hit him right in the face. Heero jerked between Duo and the gun, and held it firmly. The soldier couldn't move the weapon. He stared at Heero. His eyes looked so cold that he suddenly let the rifle go. It was as if he was hypnotized for Heero's eerie gaze.
"Let's go," Heero muttered to the two, before he un-loaded the rifle, and dropped it to the ground.
Wufei and Quatre were waiting outside of the hospital. It had been almost thirty five minutes before the other came back. Wufei and Quatre got up from their places, and walked toward their comrades.
"Where's Relena?" Wufei said.
"She's up there....some where in the tenth floor." Heero said. Wufei listened hard to Heero's voice, and notice that he was troubled.
"What is wrong?" Wufei asked.
"Relena......She...." Heero began.
"The guys up stairs.....their dead....Relena.....well....pretty much does what any other killer might do." Duo said explained. A wave of shock came over the two.
"But that's not true....how," Quatre said.
"I don't know," Duo said.
"Relena killed those people. That doesn't sound possible. She had been in comatose for long; she doesn't have the strength to do anything like that. Wait a minute; what, am I saying....she could never; do something like that. Are you sure, Heero isn't speculating things again?"
"What the fuck was that?!" Heero suddenly snapped. He charged at Wufei full force. The other three began to pull the two apart. Quatre held onto Wufei, while he struggled to hit Heero. Duo and Trowa on the hand were dealing with a now wild soldier.
"Heero, calm down, man; CALM DOWN!" Duo said. Heero eased a little. His breathing became rather raspy.
"Look, we all are worried, and that is okay," Duo said. "Right now we have to let them find her, and make sure she's okay. Is that a deal?"
Everyone was silent for a second. Trowa and Quatre nodded, as Wufei grunted. Heero growled.
"Fine," Duo said. "Now you two apologize." Wufei and Heero stared at Duo. "I'm not fucking around."
"GRR.....fine.....sorry," Wufei said.
"Same here," Heero said plainly, as they were set three from everyone's grasps.
"Her pulse is fine, but it's growing weak. We need her to get to the other hospital now," The soldiers said. He held a walkie-talkie in his hand. He reported that the suspect was missing on the tenth floor. He leaned against the elevator wall, as his hand held firmly at the divan, in which the victim was placed.
"We need to find the subject. Her majesty is not going to like this," the voice of Keyes uttered.
"Roger," the soldier said. Suddenly felt something wet land on nose. He gasped and wiped it. It was blood! He looked and noticed a trail of it dripping from the ceiling. The other soldiers saw this, and raised their weapons at the ceiling. When the elevator doors opened, the man hit the red switch on the panel next to the double doors. The doors remained opened, as he waved his gun to move the victim and the solider out of the elevator.
"Johnson, have a look on the second floor, elevator doors. She's right on top."
The elevator doors opened. One of them poked his head out. He wore a metal helmet with red shades. He saw a body. But he couldn't make out if it was her or not. "Oh God," he said getting sick. "Hey man, I think you better open it. I think it's her," the man said through the intercom.
"Roger," the soldier said. There was man next to him. He was upon a ladder ready to open the small emergency door. The soldier nodded to have the door opened. Gently, the solider twisted the knob, and then opened it. There, fell a body covered in blood. It was skinned.
"What the crap?" The soldiers said.
The ambulance car rode swiftly. The driver refused to look what was happening behind him. The body was covered with cuts and bruises. Some parts of the woman's body looked at if it had been obliterated. The man next to her spoke through an intercom of her condition. But suddenly she moves. More likely she jerked. A sound escapes her lips.
The man heard a faint sound of sobbing. "Ms," he asked. "Can you hear me?" There was no sound. He stared at her features. But then something catches his eye. Her skin was in ripples. He pressed against it, and pulled it as it tore.
"What the...."
"ARGH!"
Her hand jerked at the man's throat, and brought his face towards hers. The skin on the hand began to fall apart. Her right hand tore at the face, as it was ripped away. There was another mound of flesh, and it was wiped way. There was another face; Relena's face.
"What the fuck?" She said finishing the man's sentence. Her voice was deep, as that crackling noise escaped from her mouth again. She roared out, and large teeth extended from her gums.
The man screamed.
OH I hope I scared some of you people. I really hope I did. laughs evilly
Now wait till next time, when the mystery grows, with the files Wufei has found.
