The Thing 1982 3
Now the Dog unmasked.
Disclaimers: I own nothing
Everyone is gather to get an autopsy on the 2 face burned corpse, "Peter, I want you and Oscar to run a autopsy", Jaune ask Port and he agrees despite that he is covering his mouth and coughing due to the smell of that corpse. So they get started on checking it all out, what they find on the insides appears to be a normal set of human or Faunus internal organs. While they are at it both Oobleck and Jaune along with the others are still checking out that 2 face creature. Well many of contents they find out of it is shoes, legs and almost normal abdomen. The audiences get a better view of the 2 face creature this time.
"We found this", Oobleck said showing to what looks like appears to be the corpse of a man.
Badly charred, what is left of the trousers and of the bottom torso are ripped and split, as if his feet had burst from the inside, his upper body is an undecipherable gnarled mass of protoplasmic mush, the head is strangely disfigured and looks large than it is situated not on it's shoulder but near the tendon-like appendages are wrapped around the carcass sticking up and out in the odd posture. One is wrapped, the body's left leg, the shirt has been ripped and lies shredded in the tar mess.
"I know, it looks badly burned, but could fire have done this?" Oobleck wonders if it was fire that has caused this while Peter is sickened but fascinated while poking at the tendon-things and the tarry goo with a scalpel.
"Peter, I'd like you and Oscar to help with autopsies on this one and the one Clover shot this morning", Oobleck said to the Peter and Oscar who are present there.
"Yeah, anyone of us would be coughing from that smell", Neptune muttered about that.
"Very true", Weiss said to him.
"I wonder what they will find out of that corpse." Arthur Watts wonders, plus like everybody else, they are all wondering about the normal set of internal organs.
"What secrets that this body and the Faunus man have anyway?" Oobleck wonders too.
"But we all know fire have burned corpse", Winter said
Meanwhile at the communications room, Clover arrives but only finds Sun has fallen asleep or nodded off in his receiver, but his headphones are still on.
"I think this could be interesting", Clover said with a smile on his face.
"Are you going to turn up the volume on him just wake him up?" Vine ask, but everybody knows what Clover is going to do to wake Sun up.
"Plus you cannot control falling asleep, besides if your just sitting there, so of course you'll fall asleep yes", Harriet state the obvious.
What Clover did is turn up the volume, "AAAHHH!" This jolted Sun to wake up finally from that loud turn up volume in the process. This was so funny many started to laugh much to Sun's dismay.
"You reach anybody yet Sun?" Clover ask him while smirking with laughter for what he did to Sun just for him to wake up.
"We're a 1000 miles from nowhere man, it's going to get worse before it gets better", Sun makes an excuse.
"Well then stick to it Sun, stick to it", Clover told to just stick to it anyway.
"Stick to it? How do you expect to stick to it if you can't even make a call at all due to being in the middle of nowhere?" Sun muttered about it.
"Well, it's worth trying anyway Sun", Blake said to him.
"Yeah bro", Neptune said.
Well, in another room, Tai and Cardin are busy playing table hockey, Sun sits off in a corner thumbling through an old photoplay. Neptune and Clover are playing card games, well Neptune felt something under the table and it's just the dog.
"Well at least everyone is occupied doing whatever they are doing", Tai said while Summer lays her head on his shoulder.
"Table hockey", Cardin muttered about that.
Meanwhile Oobleck, Peter and Oscar are continue to their work on autopsy, "nothing wrong with this one, physiologically anyway." Oobleck said then turns to Peter.
"Find anything toxic?"
"No drugs, alcohol, nothing", Peter said which makes everyone wonder what is really going one now.
"You know, we haven't seen the Alien yet", Ruby mentions.
"Will see the Alien soon Ruby", Hakaze tells her, but they will see it unmasked.
The dog bumps on Neptune from under the table which jolts him gave some of the audiences a snicker to laugh at.
"Cardin, will put this mutt with the others where he belongs?!" Neptune told Cardin after getting jolted by the dog.
"Goodness Neptune", Weiss muttered to him about not liking the dogs.
"That dog came at me and jolt me after bumping into me", Neptune tries to excuse himself for that.
"Well maybe you could have sat somewhere else with Clover while playing cards with him", Sun said to him, but Neptune just roll his eyes.
Ren lies in his cot watching a small TV, he's watching an Atlesian TV Game Show, but he has seen this too many times already using video tapes. Mercury is stretched out in the other cot, reading a book and smoking a joint. Ren beckons for it and hit. In the Pub, Jaune is alone looking over the rest of the Menagerie Outpost, Mundane to esoteric chores Solitas camp life outside of Atlas and Mantle makes him bored.
"Well anyone spending time outside of Atlas and Mantle can be boring, if your just in a outpost that's in the middle of nowhere", James says that because even he can be bored when in stationed in the middle of nowhere.
"Your saying it's better to be in the city?" Glynda ask him.
"Yeah Glynda."
"Goodness", Sienna muttered.
"Really Ren, old video tapes and smoking", Nora said, but Ren has nothing to say about those 2 things.
Meanwhile Cardin escort the dog to where all the dogs are at the kennel, "well what are you waiting for?" Cardin ask and the dog finally gets in and he closes the door and locks it. After Cardin is out of sights, the dog settles down along with the other dogs, however the other dogs are aware that something was off about the new comer and they all except for one starts growling and barking at the new comer.
"Why are they barking at the new comer?" Ruby ask Hakaze, well everyone is wondering why.
"Just keep watching and you'll see why."
The dog eventually unmasked and started to transformed into something huge and hideous much to the audiences horror. While that goes on, one of the dogs who is frighten of the hideous creature that sprouted spider legs tries to bite it's way out until the hideous creatures sprays something watery at the dog.
"There's the Alien creature", Hakaze said to them.
"You mean that Alien creature was disguise as a dog?" Salem said because she will now believe there could be something for worse then her and her Grimm.
"Oh yeah, later your learn how they Alien was able to that", Hakaze said as they continue watching the scene.
"So that's why the Menageries where shooting at the dog because they knew what it was", Kali piece the parts together.
"But sadly nobody understood Menagerie Tongue at that time", Sienna said next.
Cardin returns after hearing the commotion, but he finds that it's dark in the dog kennel because the Alien Thing destroyed the light bulb. When he opens it he was knocked over by the other dogs who run away and a blooded tentacle bang through the metal fence which caused Cardin to close the door and lock it and then back away.
Jaune who was just coming back after getting a scotch whiskey hears the dogs barking and then sounds the fire alarm which wakes everybody up in the outpost. Jaune grabs a DC-15A Blaster Rifle and gets to Cardin with Qrow and Clover while Cardin arms himself with an axe.
"I don't know what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is", Cardin said as they all slowly step closer to take a look on what that Alien Thing is.
Everyone else is trying to get dress as the fire alarm keeps on blaring. "Ren! Jaune wants the flamethrower!" Neptune said to Ren who was getting dress. "Jaune wants the what?!"
"That's what he said, now move!" Neptune then runs off to meet with the others.
"Flamethrower? What are they doing in the Solitas with a Flamethrower?" Willow wonders what are they doing with a Flamethrower.
"I think a Flamethrower might be useful on breaching hard ice when it's too tough for other tools to handle", James took a guess.
When they shine the light they see hideous monstrous looking dog and roars at them before it grabs another dog who's skin and fur looks badly like if it was disfigured due to the watery stuff that the Alien Thing sprayed at the dog. The Alien Dog Thing then pulls the dog to it, another Alien Thing raises it's hands up and smashes through the wooden sealing and crawls up. The Alien Dog Thing continues to do what it's doing, then Jaune and Clover shoots the Alien Dog Thing with their DC-15A Blaster Rifle and DC-17 Hand Blaster Pistol.
"Yeah shoot it!" Ruby cheered they shoot and kill it.
"Calm yourself Ruby", Summer said to her daughter.
Despite shooting the Alien Dog Thing repeatedly, they have no avail on killing it as it attempts to grab another dog for assimilation which forces Jaune to shoot and kill dog saving it from getting a horrible death much to the shock of Cardin. Eventually Ren arrives with the Flamethrower which is a BT-X-42 Flamethrower.
"That's a BT X-42 Flamethrower, primary used by Clone Flame Troopers", Hakaze explains the details of the BT X-42 Flamethrower.
"Also that Alien Dog Thing is impervious to Guns and Blasters", Hakaze explains on how useless that firearms is against the Alien Thing.
"You the think that Flamethrower us useful?" Cinder ask Hakaze.
"Keep watching and you'll see."
"Jaune just shot a dog", Ruby said after seeing that part.
"Just to save it from getting a horrible death Ruby", Tai said to her.
"Ren get over here!" Jaune said and Ren steps closer.
"Burn it!" Jaune ordered but Ren hesitates while checking the new form that the Alien Thing takes and has a eye looking at him.
"Dang it Ren torch it!" Jaune said and yet Ren continues to hesitate which worries Nora and the others who thinks Ren will be killed.
Ren sees the Alien Thing then opens up something and what came out is what looks like a Venus Flytrap and lunges at Ren but he fires and incinerates the Alien Thing. The Alien Thing screeches until it dies, after a few seconds they put out the fire with fire extinguishers.
"So that's the Alien, it was posing as a dog until it finds more victims", Ozpin said.
"Could have been far worse then the Grimm", Qrow believes that the Alien Thing could have been far worse then the Grimm on Remnant.
End
Coming up next, time to know what that Alien Thing just did.
That took me a long time to finished this chapter.
