Last time:
Deryk was sent on a mssion he wasn't very fond of, but that all changed when he met Hunter, Samus Aran's descendant. He manages to quickly persuade him into working together to infiltrate one of Biostar's fortresses. Meanwhile, we learned that the little stunt Miles's pulled off was because of chaos control and Matthew hasn't been his cheery self lately. Will he ever recover? Will Deryk and Hunter succed? And what is Biostar planning?
Chapter 11
Weapon Specialists Part 2
"Alright, so what's the plan?" Hunter asked. Both him and Deryk were hidden in bushes if front of Biostars large metal fortress. Deryk was holding a map in his hands.
"This particular fortress has very simple schematics to it." He said, carefully examining the map. "If I'm correct, which I always am, we should be at least five feet above the basement." He put a hand on his chin. "If we dig our way there, we should be able to navigate through the main ventilation system with being detected." Hunter took a good look at the map before shaking his head.
"Sorry, but that won't be possible. Intel told me that they've equipped the vents with motion detectors. A fly couldn't go though without being zapped... Maybe we can go through at ground level."
"Impossible. There's only one way in and one way out. And if we try to make a new, the mission will be compromised." The two weapon specialists stared at each other before looking back at the map. "We can't go over it either... well we could go to the basement and try another route through." He examined every square inch very carefully until an idea popped in his head. He looked behind him to see a small truck moving in the fortress's direction. "Our only option now is to settle this incognito." Hunter stared at him confused before seeing the small truck.
"Aren't we a little... small for those outfits?" He looked at Deryk, who was starting to take off his backpack.
"You might want to like away right now."
"What are you doing?" Deryk didn't responded. Reaching into the metal pack, he grabbed what was apparently Biostar's soldiers uniform and a few other things.
"Always come prepared."
Meanwhile, within the fortress itself, Leonard worked rapidly inside his large laboratory. On a large table, there were various pieces of scrap metal scattered from Terren's destroyed robot. He looked worried, spooked, and afraid at the same time. His assistant Lucaria watched him work away with worried eyes.
"Leonard?" She asked. "Are you alright?" The scientist glared at her.
"Of course I'm not alright! Terren is coming here for that report and I don't have anything to show him!" He looked at a large monitor showing that peculiar picture again. "This is impossible! Unthinkable! Inhuman!" He turned back to the scrap metal. "The only thing I can say is that either he used some sort of unknown technology, or he had a incredibly large sugar rush." Lucaria giggled at that last part, earning a glare from the scientist. "How can a twelve year old even do something like?" A heavy sigh followed afterwards. "Terren's gonna kill me for sure."
"Leo," Lucaria came closer to the man. "Calm down, you still have some time left." Leonard didn't even look at her. But that female scientist had an idea. "Have you considered something... out of this world?" Leo's eyes lit up.
"That's it!" He quickly made his way to the computer and began to type frantically. "Why didn't I think of this before? One of our contacts must have some information about this." Lucaria smiled softly, but it only lasted a few seconds.
"Um... Leo." The male scientist brought his attention to the woman. "I... have to do something real quickly." Leo smiled at her and motion for her to go.
"Sure, you can have some time off. It's the least I could do." Lucaria sighed in relief before walking out of the room, leaving Leo to continue his work.
"You were always way to gullible Pitty-Pat. It actually pains me to do this... NOT! Sayōnara sucker!"
Tip's topaz colored eyes shot open. He quickly scrambled up from his bed, panting heavily and sweating thanks to the nightmare he had. Actually, he's been having that nightmare since Matthew left, kind of like another OC I know. Continuing, he put his hands on his head. When Matthew first appeared, Tip thought he would be a selfish coward and boy was he wrong. All his life, he thought he could blame the king of hearts for his dad's death... now he doesn't know who to blame and all he can do is lament of his father's death. He looked the the sword at the side of his bed. Realization suddenly flowed through him. He knew what he had to do. He just didn't know if he would regret it or not.
"Alright, your clear to enter." Two soldiers entered Biostar's large fortress. However, there was something rather strange about theses two specific men. First of all, their stature was a lot smaller than the others, but no one seemed to really care about that. But still, there was something strange with them. Let me think... Oh! Now I remember! Those two are Deryk and Hunter. Hunter was simply wearing a uniform, convincing, but not very sophisticated. Deryk on the other hand looked like a completely different person! His bangs were now painted a snow white color, his eyes were now a light blue color and even his skin had a dark tan now! When they reached an empty hallway, the two stopped.
"Alright Hunter, it's best we split up to cover more ground." Deryk said in a very convincing and beautiful British accent. "If you see Biostar, do whatever it takes to take him out, but stay in cover." Hunter quirked an eyebrow.
"Hold on, were going to kill Biostar now? That's wasn't part of the mission. And what's up with the get-up?" Deryk rolled his eyes.
"Change of plans... and this 'get-up' happens to be one of my best disguises. Jackson Q. The III. Now, if anyone asks, don't use your real name and try to blend in with the crowd."
"Woah, woah woah. No one said that your in charge. I'm doing this my way." Sighing, Deryk agreed before the two parted ways.
Siren. The young girl being tortured by Biostar was in her own cell. However, unlike the rest of the base, it was dark and filthy and it actually resembnled a medieval dungeon. A bit more futuristic, but you get the idea. She was crouched down. Quiet. Too quiet. It was as if she wasn't even alive. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of running water. She whimpered slightly, chains around her arms binding her to the floor. The when she heard footsteps. Tensing up a bit, she hid her head between her legs, scared of what would happen.
"Siren, it's me." A soft voice ringed in her ears. It was Lucaria, letting Siren sigh in relief.
"Lucaria... what are you doing here?" She looked closely at the scientist, but she noticed there was something in her hands. A key to be exact. She watched as Lucaria came closer to the door of the cell. "What are you doing?" Lucaria stayed quiet as she unlocked the door.
"I'm going to get you out of here."
Deryk, in his very convincing disguise, was searching through various files inside a large cabinet. He was inside some sort of office and he thanked God that whoever the office belonged to was out. He carefully examined the labels on the files, some cathcing his eye, but were a total waste of time. They didn't tell hime anything that he wanted to know. He eventually found himself without anymore files.
"Damn." He cursed under his breath. "Where else can I look?" He walked out of the office, only for a voice to call him.
"You there!" Deryk did a quick 360 before staring at his caller. It appered to be a normal soldier, but the various medals on his uniform said otherwise."What are you doing?" Thankfully, Deryk had played dress-up before.
"I was retrieving a file that Lord Biostar might find interresting. However it was moved to a different location. You wouldn't happen to know where it would be?" The man put it's hand on it's chin.
"That depends on the file... Biostar usually only looks at files that Leonard made and they get put in a special cabinet in a safe in the basement. Come here, I'll give you the key." While the soldier lead the way, Deryk smirked. He wasn't called 'the master of disguise' for nothing.
A lot of stuff happening in a short chapter! What report will Leonard give to our tyrant? What does Tip have to do? Will Lucaria be able to accomplish her goal. How long will Deryk's disguise work? And how s Hunter doing? Stay tuned to find out! R&R!
