The drug in this chapter is an idea from Immortal Starscream
Meanwhile with RRB
"OK men, this new Med II will be distributed to every soldier fighting the vampires." The young commander of a military base was saying to his platoon of men and teenagers; The Rowdyruff boys were in this meeting too. "How exactly is this stuff superior to the first med drug?" a soldier asked. "Well unlike the first, Med II is basically a poison that will only target and kill the vampires; to humans it's completely harmless, so harmless that you've been breathing it since you entered this room."
Every soldier suddenly gasped at this statement; including the Rowdyruffs. "But be careful in the field; this stuff is even more reactive then the first med drug, it will turn you blood into a highly flammable substance, so if you bleed…you risk becoming a walking time bomb." The commander stated. "Whoa! Uh…how much Med II do we have?" Boomer asked the commander trying to change the subject. "At the moment all we have 3 days worth to support the garrison, fortunately we have a train heading our way with more and it should get here in roughly an hour." The commander explained.
"DISMISSED!" He then yelled and then all the soldiers marched out the large room. Before the Rowdyruff boys could leave the commander stopped them. "Rowdyruffs, I have a new mission for you: to find and if possible: rescue Alec White." The commander ordered. "Sir are you sure that's a good idea? He pulled a gun on me!" Brick exclaimed. "I am aware of what happened between you and Alec Brick, but if we get more med back in his blood stream he'll be himself again." The commander explained.
Brick sighed in defeat. "Alright, do you know his status sir?" Brick asked. The commander stayed quiet for a minute before answering in a quiet voice. "MIA, (Missing In Action.) In other words we don't know, but we want you three to find out, rescue…or terminate, do you understand me?" He asked in a low voice. "Yes sir" All three boys said in unison. "Good, we'll send you to the crash sight of where your last chopper went down, move out!"
Meanwhile on the Med II tanker train.
The enormous steel line of tanker cars and engines were beginning their long and slow descent down a mountain towards the military base, the gigantic train is hauling 70 large tankers worth of Med II, being so flammable the train had to go slow to prevent an explosion, but things seemed to be going well as the driver applies the dynamic brakes to slow the train as it dips down the mountain. However, the young brake man along with the driver notices that the train is starting to pick up speed.
"Hey dude, were doing 30 miles an hour." He says to the driver, he glances at the speedometer and sees that the speed is indeed increasing. "Should be at 24." the driver stated. To counter this increase in speed he also applies the train's air brakes, but there is no noticeable change in speed. "Its creeping." The brake states again. Confused the driver applies more pressure on the air brakes, but the train still showed no sign of slowing down, it was already doing 40 miles an hour and was still picking up speed.
"Oh crap this is bad, this is very bad!" The driver stated in a slight panic, he then turned the air brakes on full…but it didn't change a thing. At the bottom of the mountain the track bends round the military base and into the train yard next to it. Both men know the massive tanker train is not allowed to go more then 55 miles an hour round the corner, but halfway down the mountain the train was already going much faster then that. The base was also in the way if the train was to come off the track and with its very large and very explosive load of Med II; they were all screwed if that happened.
In desperation the brakeman activated the train's emergency brakes, at first it seemed to work and the train gave a jolt as the brakes did there work, but after a few seconds all hell broke loose: both the emergency brakes and the dynamic brakes failed causing thick white smoke to pour out from under the train, due to immense friction between the air brakes and the track the wheels of the train began to melt and become liquid metal, so the train was just skidding at increasingly high speed down towards the base.
"Oh God! Were doing 60…70…80…oh shit 90!" The driver yelled. The speedometer was pushed to its limit and just simply stopped at 90 miles an hour, because that was as far as it would go. But the men know the train is still picking up speed. The brake man picked up the radio. "This is 7995 to Townsville base! Repeat: 7995 to Townsville base!" he shouted into it; no response. "Try again! He should be there!" the driver commanded. "This is 7995 to Townsville base!" the Brake man yelled again.
After a few tense seconds the commander's voice replied. "Townsville base, go ahead." He calmly said back. "Well sir…we have a slight problem, we don't know if we can get this train stopped!" the brake man explained. "Give it here!" the driver ordered snatching the radio. "Mayday! Mayday! We're doing over 90 miles an hour! Repeat: 90 miles an hour! All brakes have failed!" Driver blurted into the radio. "Shit! You wouldn't happen to be the tanker train with the Med II would you?" the commander asked fearfully. "I'm sorry sir…but we are carrying the Med II…70 tankers full of the stuff…100,000 tonnes…each." There was a long moment of silence on the other end of the radio, before the commander hung up.
The train was now doing over 130 miles an hour and the base was just seconds away. The driver and brake man braced themselves for the impact as the train reached the bend. Inside the base every soldier had taken their belongings and ran as fast as they could to the evac helicopters. Meanwhile the train violently derailed and smashed through the walls of the base…
The RRB's chopper, 2 minutes earlier
The Rowdyruff boys were now over the jungle where they and Alec last crash landed, Alec at the time was covered by debris so the Rowdyruffs assumed he ran off when they were picked up. The tech assistant with them had brought along large boxes that the boys were very curious of.
"OK boys the commander told me to give you these." He then took one box and opened it. Inside was parts of a Berretta 50 cal sniper rifle. "This gun is for you Boomer." He said giving the box to Boomer. "Whoa cool!" he said and began putting the gun together while the tech assistant picked up another box. "This one is for you Butch." This gun was a striker shotgun, basically a semi-auto shotgun. "Hell yeah, vamps watch out!" he stated as slung the gun over his shoulder. "Brick this one is for you." This gun was a SOPMOD M4A1 carbine machine gun. "Oh wow!" slinging the gun over his shoulder. Boomer finished putting his 50 cal sniper rifle together and also slung it over his shoulder.
Just then a loud far off explosion could be heard in the distance, looking out the window the boys looked in horror at a massive mushroom cloud in the direction they just came from. "Holy shit! If were any later coming on this mission, we'd be in there somewhere!" Butch stated in awe. "What the hell happened?" Boomer asked out loud. "I don't know, but the only other base in range is on the other side of vamp territory." The pilot stated. "I can only get there by going straight through; I don't have the fuel to go round." he explained.
"Well we need to finish the mission first; you get yourself and your bird to the base, we'll find away back our selves." Brick stated. "Sir be advised: you will NOT have transport back to that base if you go now, do you understand?" The tech assistant asked. "Yes soldier; we know what we're getting into." As the chopper landed the tech assistant gave a salute. "Godspeed Rowdyruffs." He stated. The RRB saluted back. "To you too." With that the chopper left them in the jungle.
The bit with the train was a parody of the 7551 east derailment of May 12 1989, bit of history for you! Anyways review =update!
