Everything was bright red. Chris could feel his body floating, yet shrouded in warmness. He opened his eyes and was shocked to see what seemed the same as a thin layer of skin surrounded in veins all over him. There was the sound of bubbling and rumbling everywhere. Though it felt as if being submerged in liquid, breathing wasn’t really that hard.
“A queen!” an echoing voice suddenly began crying out the moment Chris closed his eyes.
“Who’re you?” He tried calling out. Frowning when he noticed he wasn’t even opening his mouth to talk. He immediately realized that once again he was communicating via thought.
“Let us serve you, oh queen!” More voice
“Peculiar,” was all Dr. Steinz could say.As part of the proper procedure, they immediately sent all of them to the laboratory after escaping the tunnel. They also dispatched armed soldiers to check on any other survivors inside.Chris felt both relieved and awkward because he was not alone there anymore. He had the entire platoon with him. All of them buck naked while several people poked, grabbed, and touched every nook and cranny of their bodies. Checking for anything that looked unusual.But after hours of getting those rigorous and torturing experiments, they found nothing. From the x-rays, scans, blood, and test even that thing of taking specimens. All of their tests came back with
“This doesn’t look like the same place as last time?”Oliver could not help but scratch his head, seeing an entirely changed testing facility. The tunnel still had that long, winding road, but it did not feel as vast as before.The air felt dry and coiled, which gave this suffocating feeling all around them. Besides that, they immediately noticed the camera’s that were attached all over the ceiling.“Yeah, the place looks completely different.”Sergeant Sanchez stayed wary of the facility, keeping his gun close by and at the ready, all the while his gaze wandered on every corner.<
“Sergeant, are you all right?”The two of them shout seeing as the man was still standing there. Arms raised, covering his head to protect it. The officer was gawking at himself, same as they were, when he straightened up to check himself for any injuries.“Somehow, yes.”He had this surprised look on his face as he turned to them. Holding his laughter from not dying from that trap.“Are those real bullets? Why are they using those?”Oliver noticed the live ammunitions that were scattered on the floor. They were still smoking, bent, showing no parts that they were fake.“It’s what they were talking about. They went with the near death approach to force the power to come out of us.”Chris let out a sigh, r
“The doctors seem to be very pleased.”Oliver had this giddy smile on his face, looking at how the old men in white were laughing along with the higher officials of the army.All of them were shaking hands, giving out compliments to one another, all the while disregarding all three of them.“Why wouldn’t they be? It just means that they’ll be able to get more funds with this development. Especially since all of us have shown a great deal of improvement.”Chris whispers to them, in the longest that he had been there, he was quite aware of how some things run there. Lack of results meant c
Chris still felt his whole body aching at that moment, though it’s been several hours had passed since his last check-up. It seemed the scientists were becoming more drastic as they were proceeding with all of it these past two days.And now he remained waiting on the operating bed while the doctors discussed his status. The white room, like before, had different machines and was once again had a large one-way mirror, wherein there were surely people behind. Such a person was Dr. Steinz, who was with several more of the other scientist.“What do you mean, you still can’t replicate it?”The bearded old man ended up shouting at his subordinates, all the while they trembled in front of him.As all results show, negative, along with zero levels of power, increase.&
“I thought I was in the clean up division?”It dumbfounded Chris seeing the next mission that was assigned to him. After reading some details of it, he was now confused why he was being given a job like that.There was certainly something about it that does not sit properly with him, especially because it was a job that the officials have deemed safe.The special private was currently standing at attention within the doctor’s office. He was immediately called in there after he arrive, after enjoying his three days’ leave.Doctor Steinz arch a brow at the question, removing his focus from his computer before smirking and giving him an amused stare.The man turned his chair, crossing his legs as he faced him. After a few seconds of browsing his clipboard with a fe
Twelve well-built men stood in front in a salute the moment he and the doctor entered the room. All of them wearing tactical suits with a red dog-like logo.“Private, may I introduce to you the Set security force.”Steinz had this proud look on his face as he gestured at the group that gave a firm greeting to them. Chris did the same in respect, but he could not remove his frown upon realizing that they were not from the military.He moves closer to the bearded man in order to whisper his concern. “A private army?”Though he knew that this was a special mission, not to mention one that was completely under the research division. He could not help but worry, seeing as they got hired mercenaries instead of soldiers.Doctor Steinz let out a sigh as he took off his
Chris was deep in thought, trying to reach out to the deepest recesses of his mind. In search of an alternative, wanting to speak to the two beasts that he had encountered. He kept calling Wolfenstein the way he had before. He could feel that they were still alive, yet he could not call them out.He stops when he felt a hand on his shoulder. When he turned to see who it was. It was sergeant Rodrigo giving him a thumbs up, his face asking if he was okay. He gives him a node to say yes, allowing him to be left alone again.Though this time he couldn’t return to his meditation, noticing the weird look on some soldiers. Some of them were grinning, while others had this grim expression while staring at him.That all changed when they finally started landing and everyone began gearing up as the chopper opened up its door. A platoon immediately gr
