Chapter 6:
Tink looked down the hall checked over her shoulder again. This place gave her the creeps. Why didn't they have more lights? Like in the entrance hall foyer thing? The door to the armory opened and Sarge and Duke came out.
"Anything?" Tink asked standing up looking at Sarge.
"Nope," Duke answer for him.
"Come on," Sarge said. They moved through the halls Tink at the back walking backwards her eye never leaving the scope. She had never felt so on edge as she did right then.
She jumped as gun shot reverberated through her ears. It was through their comm.'s. She had to relax, she couldn't get trigger jumpy. She looked at Sarge as he demanded for a report from the shooter.
"Friendly fire, Sarge, wasting ghosts," Destroyer's voice came out over the comm. Sarge nodded at Duke and then looked at Tink.
"You okay?" She nodded quickly. As much as she hated it down there she didn't want to be stuck in Mac's shoes babysitting Pinky. "Okay then," Sarge continued walking.
"There is movement in Carmack's office." Goat's voice came over the speaker. It went garbled then all they could hear were shots.
"Come on!" Sarge yelled. Duke and Tink tore after Sarge running the maze of dark, dank tunnels. They could hear more shots and their pace quickened.
"If you have a weapon, drop it!" Tink could hear Reaper's voice ahead of them. "Shit," Goat, Portman, Destroyer, and The Kid were all looking in something just out of Tink, Duke, and the Sarge's view. They turned the corner.
Tink stopped just in front of Reaper and stared shocked at the horrific scene. A man was huddled in the corner. He was covered in blood with a nasty wound on his neck and a…a…
Tink barely contained a dry retch when she realized the thing the man was clutching was an arm.
"Where are the other scientists?" Reaper demanded of the man. Tink found it hard to believe this guy would give them a coherent answer. He seemed to be making some sort of growling noise.
"Oh my God!" Tink looked over Reaper's shoulder and saw Samantha Grim skid into the hall.
"Sam, I told you to stay-
"He knows me John!" Tink looked back at the man in the corner. She wasn't sure what Samantha was looking at but Tink didn't see anything that resemble recognition on the mans face. To Tink's shock Samantha started to edge closer to the man.
"I am not going to hurt you Dr. Carmack." Tink continued to stare at the man. Either Dr. Carmack had a double ganger or something really fucked up happened. Tink was willing to believe the second possibility. Carmack made a strange shrieking noise and his hand flew to the side of his head.
At first Tink thought he was going to back hand Samantha, and kinda wished he had when instead he ripped off his own ear. Tink jumped and saw The Kid gag in her peripheral vision.
"Jesus Christ!" was all that came from Samantha. "Get me a med kit."
Tink was starting to believe this guy needed a bullet more then a med kit but she kept her opinion to her self. "Duke, you take Dr. Grimm and Dr. Carmack to the med lab, Portman, Kid you go the vents, if we flush this thing out it can only go to you, everybody else you know what to do."
Destroyer broke off and went with Sarge; Tink went with Goat and Reaper. Bringing up the rear Tink's eye never left her scope. Something was down here…something evil.
