Chapter 5
(Please take it easy on my English. It is my second language.)
Note: The "political" rubbish were nothing more than for a laugh. Please do not take it seriously.
"What is this?" The head of Sherry's bodyguards asked as a hotel waiter was handing him a piece of red paper.
"It is a party invitation card from some kind of noble descendant who lives in a castle in the mountain area about 200 miles from here," the hotel servant answered, "As the matter of fact, all the richest and most powerful people in this town and nearby towns are invited."
"Our boss is a foreigner who just got here a few hours ago." The bodyguard replied.
"Yes, this is the most expensive hotel in the city. Nobody but rich and powerful people such as the president of the United States, or Queen of England, or the bosses of huge corporations can afford to stay here. Everyone who rents the room here is invited."
"Ok, then I will hold onto it," The head of the guards took the invitation card from the hotel servant.
"Is Miss Wesker up yet?" The head guard asked.
"Nope, she is still sleeping," A guard who was sitting outside Sherry's room answered "She arrived at almost 4am. She must be really tired. Oh, there she is!"
The door was opened as they were talking. Sherry was standing in front of them while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Sherry questioned the guards outside. "Don't you know what time it is now? I have to get to the bank!"
"Sorry, Miss Wesker. We were not told to wake you up," the head guard answered. He wouldn't dare to wake Sherry up because she did not tell him to.
"Here is an invitation from some kind of descendants of a duke. He invited all the richest and most powerful people who are in the city at the moment. It is a nobles' party located inside a castle about 200 miles from here on a hill." The head guard handed the invitation card to Sherry.
"Why me?" Sherry asked curiously.
"The guy who delivered the cards said everyone who stays in this hotel is invited too, because usually nobody can afford to stay here beside the President of the United States, Queen of England, and business giants."
"Ok, this sounds interesting. I have never been to a nobles' party before," Sherry was completely refreshed and she showed great interest in going to the party.
"The invitation says we should arrive there at 5pm. Dinner will be served at 6, followed by parties until 10:30pm. Also anyone is welcomed to stay for the night," Sherry told the head guard after she had read the invitation.
"It's already 1pm. It will take 3 hours to get there. We have 1 hour to get to the bank and take out the package. We have to hurry!" said the guard.
"Then hurry. Go get my breakfast ready. I need a shower first. Ask for room service if there is a fancy party dress I can borrow," said Sherry as she turned around to walk back into her room.
"Sure thing!" the guard responded right way before Sherry closed the door.
Ada woke up and found herself being confound to a steel chair by 5 handcuffs. Four of them cuffed each of her legs and arms to the chair, while the fifth tied her fine legs together.
After a moment of surprise, she looked around. Two military looking men were on a couch watching TV. They were not looking in her direction which was just on the right of their couch. Both of them were carrying pistols on them. The room had no window. There were two doors on the two opposite directions.
On the TV news,
"The U.S. air force had just destroyed a newly detected terrorist training camp in Afghanistan to respond to the kidnapping of Ashley, the daughter of their president," The news reporter said as a destroyed small village showed up on the TV screen. Many dead bodies were carried out, include women and children.
"Bastards!" One of the mercenaries said angrily with French accent "I hate the Americans!"
"Fuck you!" The other mercenary apparently was an American. "If wasn't us, you French are now speaking German!" He was talking about World War II.
"If wasn't us, you are still a British colony!" The French mercenary talked back at the American mercenary, and he was talking about how the French aided Americans' Revolution.
Ada was amused by the two mercenaries throwing different propaganda of their own countries at each other. As they two men were getting more and more angrily at each other, none of them noticed Ada had already wakened. She almost wanted to tell them just shoot each other since they both had pistols.
Not wasting a moment, she suddenly broke all the handcuffs on her hands like they were made of paper, although the flesh on her wrists were ripped open by the steel handcuffs in the process since her flesh was still flesh.
The two mercenaries who were arguing heard the noise and both turned their heads, but they only saw Ada was ripping off all 3 handcuffs on her sexy legs, and she broke the steel handcuffs as if they were made of tofu. Both mercenaries quickly stood up with pistols out.
"Don't move!" One of the mercenaries ordered Ada. "I wouldn't stand up from that chair if I were you, Miss!"
"What are you going to do if I moved? Shoot me?" Ada smiled as the two mercenaries were looking right at her gorgeous face.
The two mercenaries knew they couldn't shoot her. The plan was to interrogate her when she woke up. But they still tried to bluff.
One of the mercenaries had a microphone beside his face
"The girl had broken free! The girl had broken free! Tell Carlos to come down here now!"
Knowing more of these guys would be coming soon, Ada made her move. A moment ago she was sitting in the chair, the next moment she was already right in front of the two men who were 6 meters away from her chair, and she was not on the lines where their guns were aiming at. Neither mercenaries was prepared for Ada's superhuman speed, neither expected this would happen at all.
Out of surprise, one mercenary tried to readjust his aim at Ada. Before he could move his gun into position, a punch landed on his cheek and knocked him back into the couch. And the couch turned over before the guy continued to slide across the floor and then hit the wall with his back. The other mercenary who was speaking on the microphone never stand a chance, either. His gun was seized by Ada in a split second. Before he realized his pistol was in Ada's hand, his face had been met by a cute foot. It was the last thing he saw for that day.
Both mercenaries were knocked out unconscious. They were both lucky that Ada used only a tiny portion of her strength, or their faces would have been turned into pies.
Ada opened one of the doors and walked out, but only found herself inside another room. It was a bathroom! She turned around and ran for the other door. As soon as her hand touched the metal door handle, a shock of high voltage electricity ran through her…it was a booby trap! A high voltage electricity door handle! Ada was shocked and she fell onto the ground. Her body was still shaking in pain as she was lying on the ground. Her gun was tossed aside.
By the time she struggled to stand up again, the door was opened from outside. Two mercenaries with tranquilizer guns were aiming at her and ready to fire. There goes nothing. Ada made a dodge move with her still painful body which had not recovered from the electricity shock. The two mercenaries were still too slow to follow her movements even though she was already hurt. She struggled to grab one of their tranquilizer guns and moved the gun's aim away from her while her elbow hit the guy in the nose. The guy let go of his tranquilizer gun and hit himself on the wall behind him and dropped onto the ground. A whirling kick at the end of the elbow attacking move had hit the second mercenary in the leg and he dropped onto the floor like a stone…but not before his tranquilizer gun went off…
Looked down, Ada saw a needle on her right thigh. She pulled it out and dropped it onto the floor. Then she picked up the pistol she had dropped.
As Ada struggled to run through the hall, she felt dizzy but she kept going. It was a very long hall with many rooms on both sides. Ada moved as fast as she could, but she was not in much of a running speed any more. The narcotic had taken full effect shortly after she was shot. If it was anyone else, they would have been knocked out instantly after being hit.
Ada had almost reached the stairs. She now was moving like a very sick person. As she reached the first floor, 4 men appeared with tranquilizer guns. Ada raised her arm and fired the pistol 3 times in a row but the 4th shot was a sound of empty gun. There were only 3 bullets in this gun! Ada threw the empty pistol at the 4th man. It hit him in the face and he was knocked out. The 3 rounds she fired earlier had hit 3 mercenaries in the chests, but all 3 of them stood right back up after they fell down. They were all wearing bullet-proof body armors! One of the mercenaries made a shot at Ada but it was dodged. All the men were shocked for a second before the remaining 2 mercenaries both fired. One of the tranquilizer needles was avoided, but the last one hit Ada's shoulder.
Ada pulled it out and threw it back at one of the mercenaries. It stuck into his cheek and the man immediately fainted. Ada walked a few more steps while supporting herself by holding onto the wall with her arms.
The remaining two mercenaries were shocked at what they saw, and they were both freezing. When she was only two more steps away from the nearest mercenary, Ada finally fainted. Her body slowly collapsed onto the ground.
"What just happened? Is she a human?!" Carlos said, "The electricity door handle was supposed to knock her out. It could knock ANYONE out instantly! Then it was the tranquilizer gun. It could take out a horse immediately! How did she do that??"
There was silence. Nobody knew how to answer that question.
Finally the mercenary who was beside Carlos spoke,
"Yeah, did you see the way she was dodging? Oh well, she is an Asian. She reminds me of one of the kungfu chicks in the movies."
"That is one crazy kungfu chick!" Carlos repeated what the other guy just said.
Inside another basement room, Leon tried everything he could. He found himself completely unable to move his hands, or legs. His hands couldn't even reach each other to use the tricks he had learned from his secret agent training. He was restrained the same way as Ada was.
The door opened. Two mercenaries walked in and shot him with two tranquilizer shots. He fainted instantly. Two other mercenaries walked in, carrying several very thick steel chains.
"Is it really necessary?" one of the mercenaries asked the other one as both of them were strengthening the restraining of Leon with the very thick steel chains.
"Carlos' order. He said since the girl could rip apart the handcuffs, who knows what this guy can do? We have to take caution," The other mercenary replied.
The first man nodded.
"Carlos? The package has appeared!" One of the two mercenaries who were sitting in a car parked outside the bank reported on the radio.
"Really? Wow, that was quick. Who is having it?" Carlos replied and he was excited.
"A teenage girl in a fancy dress. She does not look like from around here."
"Be specific!" Carlos ordered.
"She is not a Spanish. She looks like an American to me because she speaks English with an American accent with some men in black," The mercenary answered. "The exactly same outfit bodyguards as the ones we took the package from the first time! Hey, they just passed our car."
"How interesting! Where are they going?" Carlos asked.
"They just got into a Lincoln Limousine. Oh, fuck, even that car is the same as the last one!"
"Follow them with caution. Don't let them notice. And keep in contact!" Carlos ordered.
"Piece of a cake," the man replied like it was nothing.
An hour later, Ada woke up again with awful headaches. Her body still felt weak, and her wounded wrists had blood all over. She found herself chained to the chair by heavy steel chains instead of handcuffs.
"So you are awake," Carlos said. "That was fast! Any normal person wouldn't be waking until at least midnight!"
"Who are you?" Ada looked at Carlos.
"I am the one in charge here. That's all you need to know," Carlos replied.
"What do you want with me?" Ada asked again.
"Nothing personal. We are mercenaries. Two days ago we had a contract to take a package. You stole it away from us right after we had succeeded. Do you want to tell us what is going on? And what is in the package?"
"Remove these chains. Then I will tell you everything." Ada put up a seductive smile on her pretty face.
"Yeah, right! After what you had just showed us?" Carlos said as he smiled back at her.
Ada did not reply.
"I expected you would give us a very hard time even after being captured," Carlos said while staring at Ada's gorgeous face. "You will have to talk sooner or later."
Ada ignored him and looked away.
Carlos noticed Ada's bloody wrists. They were ripped open by the steel handcuffs when Ada broke herself free the first time.
"Does it hurt?" Carlos asked with a pity voice.
"Eh, what does it matter to you?" Ada answered. It is a common trick for the captors to make captives talk after showing pity to them.
"Go grab the first-aid kit." Carlos turned around to tell one of the mercenaries.
"Don't bother," Ada said.
Carlos ignored Ada's refusal for the treatment. Once he got the first-aid kit, he cleared the blood on Ada's wrists first, but to his surprise, there was no wound left.
Ada did not trust this guy who just gently tried to treat her wounds. But by looking into his eyes, she felt something strange. This man did not look evil at all, and he did not even show the horny looking like the other men in the room did. The care he showed to her could be real. She was good at reading people. Her judgments were always correct.
On the back seat of the Lincoln Limousine, Sherry took out the Las Plagas sample (the fake one of course, but she didn't know it). It was a sealed tube with some fluid in it and a tiny little egg was floating.
"It's kind of cute!" Sherry said. "Don't you agree?"
All the bodyguards around her nodded at the same time without said a word. Sherry put the sample into her purse, and she ditched the silver briefcase.
Suddenly Sherry's phone rang
"Speaking," Sherry answered.
"Hey, Lauren. This is Tom."
"Hey, Tom, what's up?" Sherry asked politely.
"I just got this invitation card, to invite me go to a nobles' party in a castle at 5pm on a hill 200 miles from the city. And it says I can bring a companion. Would you like to come as my companion?" Tom asked.
"You got one too?" Sherry asked unnecessarily. Tom was the son of a very powerful banker.
"Oh, so we both are invited!" Tom was surprised.
"Yes! I am already on my way there. It will take 3 hours' driving from the town. I think you need to hurry, or you will be late!" Sherry said with excitement.
"Ok, see you there then."
"See you!"
Sherry hung up the phone and took out a lipstick and a tiny mirror to do the make-up.
"I thought you had already done that before we left the hotel," the head guard thought but he did not speak it out.
"How do I look?" Sherry asked after she was done.
"Gorgeous!" "Beautiful!" "Lovely!" All the guards answered.
"Tell me the truth!" Sherry did not like the way they suck up.
"Well, you are always pretty and cute, Miss Wesker. No make-up is needed on a natural cutie. Oh, and this party dress fits you perfect." The head guard answered honestly.
"Thank you!" Sherry was pleased with the answer.
"I think we have been followed!" a guard suddenly said as he kept looking behind.
Everyone turned around and saw a blue car about 700 yards behind them.
"When did you notice it?" the head guard asked.
"Since about half an hour ago. Not sure how long it really had followed us. There was too much traffic until half an hour ago," the guard replied. "So far they matched every turn of ours in the past half an hour."
"Maybe they are going for the party too," Sherry said with a smile.
"In THAT car?" The head guard disagreed. "Isn't everyone who was invited is either really rich or really powerful?" He was obviously more experienced than Sherry. The blue car followed them was just an ordinary man's car, not a bad car, but not fancy at all.
"Well, maybe they are just some servants of the castle. You know, there must be lots of them," Sherry still did not believe they have been followed.
"Maybe, but I would still take cautions," The head guard replied. "They could be with the attackers who ambushed the first team."
"Fine. If they are, just let them come!" Sherry said.
The head guard felt there was nothing more to say. Of course he had no idea why this teenage girl was sent here to bring back the package.
"There they go," A guard said as he watched the blue car did not follow their final turn at a three-way intersection.
After their final turn, there was a long way into the mountain area, a single road to the castle. There was no reason to go onto this road unless you were going to the castle, but there was still about 70 miles ahead. Both sides of the road were covered by endless forests.
"See? They left," Sherry said to the head guard.
"I wouldn't be so relieved yet," the head guard replied. "They now know where we are going, and this is the only way to leave the castle when we go back."
"I will handle it if we are attacked. Now just be quiet and let me enjoy the view," Sherry gave the order.
The head guard just could not understand how Sherry could "handle" the attack if there was one. He shut his mouth anyway because she was the boss here.
"Carlos? Looked like they were going to the old castle".
"Which one?" Carlos asked. There were two castles in the area. "The religious nuts'? Or the Duke's?"
"The Duke's."
"There is only one way in and out. We will be there to set up an ambush on their way back." Carlos said on the phone, he sounded very sure of it. "The package will be ours."
One hour later, Sherry's car arrived at the castle.
It was an old castle built at least 400 years ago. Its location was on a cliff of at least 1500 feet high. Two sides had cliffs right below the castle outer walls, the back side had some forests but it led to another cliff too, and there was a lake down there. Only the side they came in was leading to the castle. The castle walls were designed to fend early primitive cannons, and the outer wall was over 50 feet thick. Although the inner wall was not as thick as the outer wall, it was higher. A palace-looking huge building was inside.
Sherry's car had passed two gates after the driver showed the castle guards the invitation card. The castle guards at the gate were all wearing strange robes with religious looking.
Once in the yard, a road sign "Turn left for park" was ahead. They followed it and entered a huge underground parking lot. There were already over 100 very fancy cars there. It looked like many guests had already arrived. There were many bodyguards standing by the cars while their bosses were at the party.
Sherry stepped off her car carrying her purse after a bodyguard opened the door for her.
"Finally I am here. How exciting!" Sherry thought as she was walking toward a door which appeared to be an elevator.
"You four stay here, and you two come with me," The head guard wanted 4 bodyguards to stay with the car while 3 including himself to follow Sherry.
"Is it really necessary to follow me everywhere?" Sherry stopped and turned around.
"We have to be careful, Miss Wesker! I would have brought more guards if there were not so many other guests around," The head guard replied.
"Fine! Just don't stay too close to me." Sherry did not like the idea of having 3 men following her around in a PARTY!
Once in the party room, Sherry was amazed by what she saw: a HUGE fancy room with lots of well-dressed men and women talking to each other. There was a big stage in one side of the room. In front of the stage were many tables with beautiful silver and golden tableware.
It was still one hour away from the scheduled dinner time. Guests were still coming in. Sherry had met some quite interesting people there. Among them were mayors of several nearby cities, a governor, some bosses of huge corporations, some very influential politicians, and old nobles. And of course, there were their wives or companions. Sherry was among one of the smaller group - women who were directly invited.
"Hey, Lauren! I almost thought I couldn't find you among this many guests," Tom suddenly was in front of Sherry. "It is so nice to see you again!"
Sherry greeted him too, and Tom kissed her hand. Then they sat down at one of the tables started talking and laughing. They looked like a couple.
6pm
In a small room in a restricted area at a higher level inside the castle, a man in a purple robe was standing and watching a world map on the wall.
Behind him, the door was opened. A man in a red robe walked in.
"My Lord, all the guests are here, except a few who called earlier saying that they couldn't make it. Shall we start?" The man in a red robe asked respectfully.
"Let's begin." The man in a purple robe replied as he was still looking at the map on the wall. "Soon this shall all be mine!"
He started to laugh, but ended up with some coughs.
"Are you alright, my Lord?" asked the man in a red robe.
"Just some old injuries. I will be fine in a few more days. There is nothing to be concerned about." The man in a purple robe replied, "Now go and do as planned"
"Right way!" The red robe man exited.
"Soon! The damages done by Leon and the woman in red dress will be nothing!" The purple-robe man finally turned around and he was…SADDLER!
About 70 miles away down the hill, two trucks and four cars stopped at the three-way intersection. About 20 heavily armed mercenaries stepped out. They were all in the green camouflage army uniform with bullet-proof body armors and helmets, with night vision glasses above their heads. Some of them were carrying L85A1 assault rifles. Some were carrying P90 submachine guns. A few were carrying sniper rifles. Carlos and 3 other mercenaries were carrying M16 assault rifles with M203 grenade launcher attachments. All of their guns had green laser beams for aim.
Two mercenaries carried a 50-caliber Heavy Machinegun off one of the truck together. Another four mercenaries carried a HJ-8 wire-guided anti-tank missile launcher system off another truck.
"Why do we need this again? We don't want to destroy the package, do we? This thing can take out any tanks in the world. A car would have been blown into tiny pieces entirely. Overkill!" One mercenary asked.
"This is called scare tactics. Wolf used it too 2 days ago. I was there. It is meant to scare the idiots inside the bullet proof car out," Another mercenary answered "If they still don't come out, we will just shoot one round beside the car and make them think we have missed. They will have to come out."
"Just go back 500 meters and hide off the road" Carlos ordered as the trucks and cars left the way they came from.
"Go set the machinegun over there." Carlos pointed at a line of bushes on the right side of the road behind which there were tall trees.
"Put the HJ-8 there between those two trees," Carlos pointed at the far end of the road.
"You, you, and you up on the tree!" Carlos ordered the snipers to climb onto different trees.
"The rest of you spread out and hide where you see fit. Don't stay too far away, but not too close either," Carlos said. His men were combat experienced. They really did not need his instructions as to where to hide themselves.
It was a good place for an ambush. Bushes and trees were all over the places alongside the road. It would be hard to find anyone who was hiding off the road. While the road was quite straight on this part, you could see 2 miles ahead in the direction of the castle. There was no traffic at all.
Everything was set.
"Now keep radio silence and wait." Carlos said to the microphone and he prone down beside the 50-caliber heavy machinegun gunner with two other mercenaries.
On the other side of the lake above the endless forests, 3 large military helicopters were flying. There was no signature of any country's military sign on them. Each helicopter had two large circular cone shape containers hanging below them with "T-106" on them.
There were about 15 soldiers on each helicopter, every one of them was wearing black gas mask, black uniform, black bullet proof body armor, and carries black automatic weapons.
Aboard one of the helicopters,
"5 minutes!" One gas masked man told the other soldiers
"Yes, Hunk!" One soldier replied while everyone else said "Yes, Sir!"
"Don't call me by that name!" Hunk shouted at the man.
"Yes, Sir!" The man felt silly about his own big mouth.
All the soldiers double checked their weapons and equipment.
Hunk was the one who was responsible for leading the assault on William Birkin's lab on Umbrella's order back in 1998. Since the rogue Umbrella scientist refused to turn in the G-virus sample but to keep consuming the corporation's resources, the headquarters had finally decided to take action. It resulted in the dying William Birkin injected himself with G-Virus after being shot by the commandos led by Hunk. The mutated William Birkin wiped out the entire assault team, only Hunk made a narrow escape.
In process, the destroyed T-virus containers infected the rats with leaked T-virus, which was the direct cause of the destruction of Raccoon City.
Hunk had been working under the direct command of the highest department of Umbrella for years, as he was a highly experienced mercenary.
After Umbrella was seemly "dissolved," the department manager and a few senior executives plus a few men from the board of directors pulled out large amount of assets of Umbrella and secretly formed a mini-Umbrella. Hunk was still working for the same bosses he had always been working for the past 6 years, and he was paid well even though his missions were always way too dangerous. His nick name Mr. Death had never failed him, since he could always come back alive while many others couldn't.
This time, Hunk was ordered to attack a castle in the mountain of Spain. The objective was to recover a sample of a highly evolved parasite called Las Plagas. If he was unable to find a sample, then the order was to capture a few of the locals inside the castle and bring them back alive. His superior said the locals were all implanted with the parasites, and he referred to them as "Ganado". "They are being mind controlled, and they are extremely dangerous with their inhuman strength and the ability of taking damage."
Because the mission was highly dangerous, Hunk's strike teams were also supplied with six T-106 modified Tyrants to help them with the mission.
Those modified Tyrants were highly controllable. They would always follow the orders and would not harm the allies, but they would take out everyone else in the way unless they were ordered not to.
Hunk was also told by his superior that two of the company's competitors might have already obtained the sample of Las Plagas. Hunk's team must prevail!
Inside the party room of the castle, all guests were now sitting at the tables. It was the scheduled dinner time, and everyone was hungry.
As they are waiting for the dinner to be served, suddenly all doors and windows were sealed by some steel boards came down from above, and a white smoke was coming into the room from the vents.
The guests were falling down one after another into unconscious. The remaining tried to open the doors, but they were completely blocked by the thick steel, and there was no way out.
Sherry did not feel a thing, but she was shocked by what was happening. Each of her 3 bodyguards took out a machine pistol, but what was the use of the weapons if there was no target, and no way out?
In less than a minute, everyone including her bodyguards fell onto the ground. She did not have a clue why the castle owner wanted to do this.
Sherry was thinking quickly, and she fell onto the ground to pretend to be unconscious.
"This room must be watched. If I stay standing, they will see and continue to throw in the sleeping gas until I am down too. Once the smoke is clear, someone will come in, and then I will…"
Little to her knowledge, a few levels below, the underground parking lot, something similar was happening. All doors and windows were sealed, and the sleeping gas had taken out all the bodyguards of all the guests around the cars.
Soon the vents started to suck in air instead of the pump in sleeping gas. And the steel boards were lifted. Once again within a minute, the room's air was clear.
Sherry was lying quietly beside Tom and her bodyguards. She wanted to see what would happen next. Her bodyguards' machine pistols were inches away from her.
A door was opened, a group of about 10 men wearing robes walked in with knives, axes, and swords. And two of them had shotguns. One man was pushing in a cart with several briefcases on it.
"Start from this side of the room, inject them one by one," one robes man said as he opened one of the briefcases.
Inside the case, there were many tubes full of fluids with a tiny egg inside each of them.
As the robe men all started to grab the tubes, Sherry suddenly jumped onto her feet with one machine pistol in each of her hands.
"Don't move!" Sherry shouted.
The men in robes all turned around and looked at her for a second. Two of them started to rush at her.
"I said don't move!" Sherry shouted again and pointed her machine pistols at the two attackers.
They were obviously not listening with no sign of stopping at all.
As the two attackers were getting close, Sherry opened fire…
Above the castle, 3 helicopters had arrived above the castle front gate.
"Team 2 and 3, proceed as planned!" Hunk ordered as he watched the other two helicopters moving closer to the castle.
"Drop one Tyrant here!" Hunk ordered the pilot of his own helicopter.
The pilot nodded and pressed a button, one of the containers below the helicopter was dropped, in the air the container was divided into two pieces. A Tyrant fell down at a high speed.
"Bang!" A very loud sound of something heavy hitting the ground was heard.
"Umm, Sir! The Tyrant is defective." One of the soldiers onboard looked below the helicopter
"What?" asked Hunk.
"I think its legs are broken, and it's not moving!" Another soldier answered as he took a look too.
Hunk extended his head out of the chopper and looked down below.
The Tyrant was lying in a big pool of blood. Its legs were obviously broken. It looked very dead!
"WHAT THE HECK! We double checked them before loading them onto the choppers!" Hunk said angrily.
"What is the altitude of the chopper?" Hunk suddenly turned to the pilot.
"400 feet, Sir!" The pilot replied.
"FUCK YOU!" Hunk exploded with anger. "I said the instruction was we must drop the Tyrants below 330 feet! That means not 331 feet, NOR 400 FEET! YOU JUST KILLED IT!"
"I am really sorry, sir! It won't happen again!" The pilot answered in terror.
He knew Tyrants were expensive to make. And their company was not what it used to be. It took lots of resources and time to produce each Tyrant.
"You'd better be sorry! Now lower to 300 feet and drop the other one!" Hunk ordered. He knew he could not shoot the pilot now.
The helicopter lowered the height and dropped the other Tyrant.
For quite some time, there was no sound but the noise of the helicopter blades. Hunk looked down below. He was about to shoot the pilot even though he knew it would make himself crash with the helicopter.
The second Tyrant was on a tree, the tree top had penetrated its body completely. The Tyrant was almost ripped into half. Blood was everywhere on the entire tree. The Tyrant was not moving a muscle either just like the first one!
Hunk must act quickly, because obviously someone could have heard their helicopters by now. As much as he wanted, he knew it was not a good time to do something stupid.
"Team 2 and 3, team 2 and 3, do you still have any undropped Tyrants?" Hunk asked on the radio.
"Negative, Sir! We have just dropped all of them. They are already inside the castle. We are landing ourselves now!" The men on the radio answered.
"Guess we will have to hold out the gate without the help of any Tyrant," Hunk said to the soldiers around him.
"Now lower the helicopter to the ground and let us get off," Hunk ordered the pilot. "If we get killed too, YOU WILL WISH YOU ARE DEAD!" He was almost screaming, and his voice almost blew his own gas mask off.
