Chapter Thirty Four- Terror Threat Level Red
It was an easy choice to make . . .
He looked at the doorway for a second and then at the arctic wolf on the floor, "everyone out, now!"
Manson rushed over and grabbed the wolf by his SAS gear and dragged him out of the room, placing him on the ground and reaching into one of the pockets of his SAS gear.
He pulled out a syringe with the tube labeled: MHA3
It was an acronym for 'Midnicampum Holicithias Antitote 3'. It was an antidote the CIA developed after the Night Howler attacks in 2016, and it was incredibly fast acting, being able to revert the effects of the serum in under three minutes.
Manson grabbed his spare gas mask from his waist and forced it onto the writhing wolf's head, before rolling him over and plunging the syringe into the arctic wolf's neck.
He then leaned on his back and held him down there, looking at Fangmeyer with pure worry. He didn't want to lose a potential operative for 141.
He looked at the SAS teams behind him "secure the perimeter! If you see those fucking foxes, SHOOT THEM!" He ordered, saying the last part with sheer anger.
Manson held the wolf there, leaning on his back as he began to writhe and growl underneath him "c'mon mate . . . Pull through . . ." He murmured as he stayed there.
Fengmeyer continued struggling and writhing underneath him for around two minutes as the antidote began to take effect, by the third minute the wolf was completely unconscious.
He sat there for a bit longer, turning him over face up after he went unconscious, Manson held him there firmly against the concrete floor until he saw the wolf's eyes open.
. . .
Officer Johnathan Fangmeyer opened his eyes suddenly and saw the face of Officer Price right in front of him, although he had a large gas mask on. Looking around he saw that the grizzly was completely on top of him, holding him down, and that he also had a gas mask on as well.
"Price . . . W-what the hell?" He had no more time to question it as the grizzly spoke, "you just went fucking savage mate" He replied sternly.
He slowly began to remember what had just happened though, and his eyes widened as he remembered, "wait . . ."
Before Fang could even finish his sentence, he was suddenly released and pulled up from the paw, bringing Price's face right in front of his own.
"ON YOUR FEET! WE. ARE. LEAVING!" The grizzly shouted with the most anger he's ever seen as he was pulled up to his feet and given a rifle.
"What the hell happened!? Where's Nick?!" Fang asked frantically as he was pulled along by the grizzly bear.
"That fucking bastard is going to make the whole city savage with Night Howler gas!" He shouted angrily.
"Where's Nick?" Fang asked as Price looked at him for a second, "gone. Some fucking foxes got him, we'll get him later! Right now we need to go!" he shouted as they ran down a flight of stairs so fast Fang almost fell.
He struggled to keep up with the grizzly as they ran down each set of stairs until they reached the ground level.
Running through the exit they saw SWAT Team 1 and the SAS teams standing there, "Price, what the hell-" Fang watched Price simply storm past Grizzoli and let go of his paw.
"Price! What the hell is going on?" Grizzoli asked again as Price ripped off his gas mask and looked at them with the angriest face he's ever seen.
"What happened is Rouen has been fucking with Night Howlers this whole time! He's going to detonate a bomb full of Night Howler gas in Central Square, we need to leave" the grizzly shouted and walked away as the SWAT Team just watched.
Grizzoli tried asking him further but there was no answer, then the lion turned to Fang, "what the hell happened?"
. . .
Frederick Manson took out his flip phone again and dialed a number he knew by heart, the president.
The answer was immediate, "Manson, give me a sitrep." the president said on the other end.
"Cubbington. Rouen's been fucking with Night Howlers this whole bloody time, he has a bomb with Night Howler gas that he's planning to detonate in Central Square, today." Manson replied quickly and urgently.
"Wait a minute, how do you know this?" Cubbington asked.
"Because he fucking told us! Listen, He's planning on turning the whole city savage and killing millions!" he said loudly.
"We need to get the National Guard, the Marines and the Army there as soon as possible!" he followed.
"You have to be absolutely sure if you want me to do something like this Manson" the bear on the other end told him.
"I wouldn't fucking lie to you about something like this Cubbington, if we don't do something then this city is fucked!" Manson shouted urgently as the president sighed.
"Alright, I'm trusting you on this Manson, I'll make sure the National Guard and Marines are on their way" Cubbington said back.
"We're leaving Happytown as soon as possible, make sure you get the military here before that fucking storm hits" He spoke into the radio.
"Afirm, keep in touch with me Manson." Cubbington said as the call ended.
Though Manson pulled out his radio now, speaking into it.
"Adrian"
"Price, What the hell is going on over there!"
"Fyodorov just told us his whole bloody plan, he's got a bomb full of Night Holwer gas that's head right to Central fucking Square! He's planning on turning the whole city savage!" he explained as the chief on the other end audibly gasped.
"What!?"
"I need you to get every single available officer you have and get them to Central Square immediately" Manson said as Adrian stayed silent for a second.
"I'll get every officer we have there." Bogo said from the other end.
"The Marines and National Guard are on their way, and the president has already been notified, give your officers the order to use lethal force." Manson ordered as he heard Bogo agree.
"However Rouen is planning on getting that bomb there, your officers are the last line of defense to stop it! The terror threat is Critical!" Manson shouted.
"I'll notify all officers on duty, get the hell out of there now!" Bogo shouted back from the other end as Manson nodded.
"Wasn't planning on staying here, we'll meet at Mac Arther." he said before switching the channel.
"Belikov! Get your ass down here now! We need immediate Exfil!"
"Copy Price, what happened?" Belikov asked as he watched the helicopter begin to descend.
"I'll tell you when we get in the air" he replied and put the radio away.
He walked over to the SAS and SWAT Team One, "everyone gear up! We're leaving the city now!" he ordered as everyone looked at him.
"What?" The voice of Officer Grizzoli questioned as Manson looked at the lion "no Price we need to finish this-" the lion was cut off.
"Listen Grizzoli, we need to leave. Now. We're done here." he dismissed as the helicopter landed.
"But-" the lion tried to reason, but was cut off again, "we are leaving! If we don't stop Rouen from getting that bomb to Central Square this city is done for! Now all of you get in the fucking helicopter! That's an order!" he shouted at the captain, visibly taking him by surprise.
"Sir! What happened?!" The voice of Charlie Redbone asked as they all walked over to Belikov's helicopter.
"I'll tell you once we get in the air" he said as they and Team One got in.
"All of you! Raptor One and other helis will be here in two minutes to pick you up! When you get to the air base, you're going to be sent to Central Square!" Manson explained to the SAS teams as there were many affirmations from them.
As they all got into the helicopter, he watched Officer Hopps look at them with a nervous face.
"Wait what happened? Where's Nick?" the bunny asked as Fangmeyer answered "they took him . . ." the wolf said solemnly.
"What?! You guys are just leaving him? We need to look for him!" the rabbit shouted as the helicopter began to take off.
Manson shook his head, "finding Wilde isn't the priority right now, Hopps" he watched her look at him with an offended expression.
"Excuse me?"
"The main priority is to find Fyodorov and stop him before he can get that bomb to Central Square, because if we don't do it, this city is fucked!" he told her as he moved over to the cockpit.
He took a seat next to Belikov and Redbone and pulled out a cigar from the pack, followed by a lighter.
"What do we do now, Captain?" Redbone asked as Manson blew smoke from his mouth.
"We find Fyodorov and stop him from getting that bomb to Central Square. That's the objective now." He said coldly.
"Yes, but where is Fyodorov? How is he getting this bomb there?" Belikov asked with a glance at him.
"We don't know yet, but we're going to find out. We aren't letting this bastard get away." He vowed, almost crushing his cigar in between his fingers.
"What about Team One?" Redbone asked as he glanced at him, "Team One is going back with Adrian, we should focus on getting to Mac Arther now" Manson answered.
"We are only a couple of minutes away now" Belikov said as they flew, "good, try to fly faster, right now every minute we're not on the ground counts against us" he said getting up.
He walked in and saw all of the mammals of SWAT Team One standing there, talking amongst themselves.
"Everyone," Manson started, "you've all done extraordinary work today, but it's far from over yet. Our objective is to find Rouen and stop him from detonating that bomb, When we land at Mac Arther, your immediately going to go to Central Square to help evacuate civilians" he said as everyone looked at him.
"I don't want to evacuate civilians, Price, I wanna find this bastard." Grizzoli spoke up.
It was followed by Fangmeyer, "same here, I want that fucker dead." which was followed by Judy, "me too, if he took Nick, then he's most likely with him." After that, every officer in the helicopter wanted to go chase that panther with Manson and 141.
He sighed, "once we know where Fyodorov is, you're with us." He said with a nod, before Belikov spoke from behind them.
"We're landing now!" the polar bear said from the cockpit as Manson looked out the window and smiled at what he saw.
AN: Heya y'all, a lot of stuff happened this chapter, huh? I hope y'all liked it though! Especially the parts with Manson, I was really trying to indicate a severe tone shift from him after the sheer scale of Rouen's plan was revealed, sorta no bullshit, get the mission done. Ya know? Well anywho, I'm gonna try and finish the next chapter tomorrow, in the meantime though, it'd be really appreciated if y'all told me what ya think so far! But that's enough from me, so until next time, toodles!
