"We have you surrounded, monster, it's over, you can't run anymore" I scoff "Monster?! Is that what you really think of me? I thought humans would have been past this attitude by now. You've been able to explore the universe for what now!?... about 100 of your years?! And yet your first reaction is still hostility “, i huff “disappointing", "Save your breath, monster, you're coming with us", I glared at the captain as he says that, "Ok I'll go with you... but”, i lean in close “if you call me Monster again... *growling* I'll just have to be what you want me to be. Just put down your guns and we won't have to kill each other.” i give the captain a death glare “and you can at least ask my name, Human" They bring me to a military prisoner van. I look around as I sit down, there’s cabinets at the top, anchor loops in the floor, oh and everyone is pointing a gun at me, probably because I refused the cuffs."So, where are we going anyways?" The captain just stares at me "Not one to talk I see" the captain just glares at me "just shut up" I snap back "the least you can do is be friendly, you're getting boring and annoying. Are humans still such a fucking bitch after all thi~" the captain cuts me off "SHUT IT" this really pissed me off "I’m this close to killing you" as I flex my claws everyone tenses up and makes sure their guns are pointed directly at my head. "we're not starting on good terms with this" I say with a growl. When we arrive at wherever we were going, they open the back and start shoving me out "get moving" i shake my head "this is getting old fast. Can you at least find somebody I don't want to immediately kill", Everyone suddenly snapped to attention "Atteeeeention, General in presence ", an average sized woman in a green general's suit walks up to us. "So this is the monster you said you caught" I snarl at her "you have ten words to convince me not to kill you" she just laughs "a feisty one. Were my men being unfriendly again?" Still glaring "Still not convinced" she suddenly gets very serious "Swiidu" "convinced" she’s suddenly back to a more cheerful attitude "good. Now please follow" i'm a little worried "is my sister ok?" Without even looking back "she's fine” she turns back with a serious look “but your other friends are not." At this point I hear a bunch of shooting, then she continues after it stops "someone is after you. all of you. The van that brought you here, we had to hijack as you were being captured, they almost had you. Swiidu barely made it out... She'll tell you the rest" After a few doors and some very long hallways we finally get to the specialist barracks. As soon as Swiidu sees me she practically jumps into my arms “FLUFFY! I missed you, I was so scared, they got Ribbs and Bit, and, and~” I have to calm myself a bit before saying anything “sis, it's ok, we can handle this. It'll be ok.“ I take a pause to comfort her before continuing “hey, they didn't get me… us, we can still save Ribdragon and 064, I just need to find where they are” She quickly corrects me while putting her hoof to my snout “you mean Ribbs and Bit” I rub my snout “yes, yes, Ribbs and Bit” I think for a moment before saying “hey Swiidu, do you want to get some ice cream first, take your mind off of things for a bit?” she looks up at me “YESS!” I turned to the general. “Is there any ice cream here?” She looks at me “in fact there is, we can head to the kitchen. This way“ we walk down some halls and arrive at the Cafeteria, the general walks toward the fridge in the back before stopping “ah, wait, even better. Wait right here you two, I got a stash of something even better. No peeking” she walks out of the room. I give Swiidu a pat on the head and ruffle her mane a bit “have you been ok sis? other than all this” She turns to look at me “i-i think so. Yeah, I was chillin with Ribbs and Bit the other day making some candy, also Mizu stopped by for awhile, we watched some movies before he had to head out the next morning, he had to go on another mission with Arvy and Haven”, “another mission, man, and i'm supposed to be here on vacation, i don't know you handle such little excitement” she laughs “silly, there's more to do then just missions you know. But i think mizu dropped off a package for you” I'm a little excited now “really? What was it?”, “i think it was a sword”, “could it be? I was talking with Haven about getting me another katana, I wanted to get it soulforged this time so I'd stop losing it, but he said no. but maybe i did convince him for another” she looks at me a little worried “it'd be back at the house, and they jumped us on our way back from getting more candy supplies, Bit was just barely able to save me by throwing me onto the roofs near by” I barely get any time to think or say anything before the general burst through the door to the Cafeteria in a panic “we gotta go, the base is under attack” as if to punctuate this the lights suddenly Black out and kick into emergency mode “SHIT!” Swiidu puts her hoof on my mouth “Fluffy, profanity” I grab her and put her on my back “sis we gotta move. General, show the way and I'll get us out of here” the general nods “this way” we dash out of the back of the cafeteria, making our way past many doors and halls “where are we heading?” the general look back “we have to cross the entre base, I have an escape route that only I know” we cut left as a group of soldiers show up at the of the hall “that's not good, there blocking the only way there, and they've likely spotted us” I put Swiidu down “sis, stay behind the general, ill clear the way” she looks up at me with a smile and pulls a lollipop from her mane “take a lollipop, stay lucky” I take it and nod before eating it whole. i turn towards the hall, as I hear soldiers approaching and call out to them “those who will cower best to run now, those who will stay, you are going to face a terrifying monster the like of which will out class you” it sounds like there's five of them, and I don't hear anyone turn back, they don’t believe me do they. I step out into the hall, as soon as they see me “target sighted, take em down” i rush them down as they raise their shotguns, the first shot goes off, I instinctively dodge, but i'm too slow, half of the pellets hit my arm, but it has no effect, as I reach the first one i grab his shotgun “nice little toy you got there” then I snap it in half. The next two fire at my head, no time to dodge, my head jerks back, as I regain my thinking I realize I can't see out of my right eye. “Fuck that hurts”, seeing they actually hurt me they aim up “AIM FOR THE HEAD” they go to shoot again, but i grab hold of the one in front of me and throw him into the others, but i miss two of them. The two still standing pull out stun-sticks, one takes a swing at me, i step back to dodge, then i grab their arm and yank them towards me as the other one stabs at me, i push the first into the second throwing them both onto the ground, by this time the other half of the group has gotten up, i charge at them and put my claws through the closest one, i tear him in half with one swipe and splatter blood in the face of next one blinding them for a moment, then i take off their head one another swipe, the third one steps back and shoots me, but the shot does nothing to me as my fur there hardens from the force. I grab the freshly severed head and take a bite out of it “i told you to run… now i have to kill you”, i flick some of the dripping blood from the head at the third one before i charge him, but i don't manage to blind him, he steadies his gun and takes another shot at my head, but this time i backhand the blast and grab him by the neck, i stare him dead in the eyes as my now healed right eye rolls into place. I let out a menacing growl as i open my mouth and separate his neck in one bite. The last two get up and stand beside each other cautiously. I look at them with a bloody smile and give a low deep laugh “finally, some fear”, i start slowly walking towards them while wiping some blood from my mouth. “I'm going to use the same trick again” i say as i raise my arm like about to flick some blood at them, they tense up when i do this, so i take the chance to fling a bit of blood at them and charge low, as i collide with them one of the stun sticks catches me in the back which causes me to lose balance and sends us into the wall with a loud thud and a hard crack, it takes me a moment to get up and repoise, but the two soldiers don't recover. One of them slides across the wall as he falls to the ground leaving a long streak of blood across the wall, the other one clutches at his arm as he slumps down the ground. he just stares at me with gritted teeth as I walk up to him, I say “i gave you the chance to run, or even stay down” he cuts me off with spit of blood in my face “fuck you, im no coward”, i tilt my head in a nod “fare enough” then i splatter his head across the wall with a punch, “that’s the last of them. I hope”, i walk back over to swiidu and the general, i lick the blood from my maw as i come around the corner, “we should get moving before more show up”, as i say this i hear a lot more footsteps from the direction we just came from, as i turn to see i hear someone call out “TARGET SPOTTED”, i turn to the others “shit, MOVE. there's too many”. As we start running I pick up one of the headless bodies and tear it up with my claws “i might be able to slow them down”, i tear limbs off and splatter some blood across the floor before just tossing the limbs and body. We continue running, weaving through turn after turn trying to stay out of reach, but they manage to keep up with us. I see a small hallway coming up “go left, I have an idea”. We rush into the hall and I climb the sides of the hall using my claws to dig into the walls and get as high as I can, “climb on me” I say. They manage to get on me just as the soldiers come swarming by “they went down this way, they haven't gotten far”, the soldiers flood by with some going this way and others going that way, but some slow down “ come out, come out monster i know you’re still here” just as the last of them was about to move on one of them looks up “THEY'RE HERE, ON THE CEILING”, i sigh “come on” then drop on top of him completely crushing him. “Back to running” We run some more halls twisting and turning for a bit before the general calls out “open door, on our right, duck in. go go”, we rush through the door and slam it behind us. It looks like a small bunk room, “grab anything and everything, we need to block the door” the general says as we catch our breath. I grab one of the bunks and throw it on its side before pushing it against the door, swiidu manages to knock one over and it falls apart, thinking fast i say “we can use those, find a box, we need more weight in front of the door”, the general slides me a footlocker and i claw the lock open. By this time we can hear beating on the door and the barricade shifting. “Sis, the polls, we need more weight”, she starts tossing me the polls and i start filling the box, “better, but we need still more”, we do the same to the other bunks in the room. “It looks like it's holding, they can't get in”, a realization hits me, that's the only way in or out, “uhh, general? What's the plan from here” she stares at me as the same realization hits “shit, this is one of the older bunk rooms. Some of the newer ones have more than one way out”, by this point the constant banging has stopped. “Well, what do we do now?” I say looking at the general “Just wait for them to give up?”, “i dont think they're the kind to just give up”, as if right on queue a grenade is tossed through the doors broken window, “as i said” i quickly slide to the door and grab the grenade, i try to throw it back through the window, but it blows up in my hand as i get it on their other side of the door, it blows up a few if the solders along with my hand, “AAARGH, fuck” i pull my arm back through, “that’s gonna be awhile to heal”, i call out the soldiers “hey, can one of you give me a hand, im kinda missing one of mine”, one of them replies “fuck you, some of us are missing our faces”, i turn back to the general “general, how we getting out of this one?”, she sighs and shakes her head “i think we’re done for”, i sigh “ well, what a vacation. I'm not suppose to and im sure haven is gonna have some words for me, but i have a trick i've been hiding”
