"I'm sorry to hear that.. or.. I don't know if it's something to be sorry about.. clones are an interesting concept" Mavis said.

"So, what is it you wanted?" She asked in a more positive mood.

"Oh...just to talk. What would you do if you were paid by a shadow organization to destroy a company?" Fortu asked.

Mavis stared blankly, but then her true self took-over, for a moment.

"I would accept - that being the most profitable decision, why, has this happened to you?" Mavis said, sounding more like 'herself' towards the end of the sentence.

Slowly, the chemical expanded far beyond the crash sight, it being compressed densely into hundreds of containment tanks within. These remnants would show the ruins of these tanks, but the lack of any strange chemical flowing about the area would be off-setting.

Around the region, as the gas spread at high speeds, dead tissue would seem to come alive - dead creatures, animals, humans would be affected, slowly but surely. Though nothing significant as of yet. As people breathed the mixture in, they would feel a sudden yet slight light-headedness, no more.

After a few minutes of scavenging, the squad returned to base with reports of light-headedness. Believing this to be a chemical weapon attack, Hazmat soldiers were deployed to continue the search.

Meanwhile:

A Deer that had been wandering around was struck and killed by a piece of debris from one of the few dropships.

"Yes, I accepted the job. What worries me, is that I think I am in over my head. I work for people I know nothing about and they know every thing about me. They even know that my head is detachable." Frotu said in a nervous tone.

"Allow me to explain. A train is coming. On this main track here, we have your sister, Gio, and Naomi chained down. On the other switch, we have Rylli. With me so far?"

"I'm going to hurt you . . ." Said Bran darkly as he tried to hammer out the details.

"Mr. Nikanor, I believe you should have more pressing concerns at the moment. Namely, the train. This train will not stop till it hits someone. You can not derail it, doing so will result in a large chemical explosion that would probably kill everyone in, I don't know, about a mile or so. You can not wave it down, nor will you have enough time to run down and untie them... As I said, it will not stop till it hits someone... So then, Mr. Nikanor, who will it be?"

He smiled.

"Ms. Volkova, the others, or will you find some loophole to exploit? If you do, go ahead, I take that as a challenge... And no, throwing me in front of the train is not an option... Better hurry..."

The system didn't feel threatened. It didn't even matter if the message was incorrect. The purpose was to get their attention.

"Perhaps I can help.. I know people.." She said, slightly intrigued.

The Deer would begin to jerk, as within it's body, the body was still alive, only the brain being dead. Horrific growths ripped across it's body, as the Deer's form distorted , It's head splitting open as a new face replaced it. It's legs were torn into a more suitable form, no longer resembling a deer, but a quadrupedal monstrosity which made horrific gurgles as blood spat from it's new mouth. It shivered and twitched, alive once again, it's innards dragging along beneath it' the ripped up remains of it's intestines spewing out blood and it's contents, while the creature walked away, still forming.

It would go on to hunt other creatures, infecting them as well. While this went on, dead skin cells or other organic matter lying around began to gather in sewers beneath the city, the smell of rotten flesh being nothing new in such places.

"It is part of my protocol to be so. I apologize. May I inquire your nature? You have profound capabilities of resisting my efforts, and I have doubt you are of ours." He said methodically.

Bran looked around, contemplating his options. He could save Rylli and have everyone else hate him for eternity (And more than likely pissing off a few gods and goddesses as well), or he could save everyone else but lose the love of his life in the process.

After a few tense minutes, Bran reached a conclusion and simply walked over and stood in the tracks.

Meanwhile:

Soldiers continud to patrol the area when they spotted a few . . . Well monsters, they opened fire on the beasts immedietly.

"It's a nice offer but I have to refuse. What if I become the man who knows too much and I get killed by my employer or their rivals." Fortu said as he hung his head. The joints clicked free and his head rolled to the floor. "I hate whaen that happens." he said and picked his head back up and reattached it.

"You have been insistent for quite some time."

The man watched Bran step up to the track.

"... Well played, Mr. Nikanor..."

The train continued its juggernaut sprint, barreling straight towards Bran. It began to brake, but it wouldn't stop in time.

"Any last words?"

Bone Fort wrote:"Any last words?"

"Nope" Said Bran calmly but defiantly.

"I'm quite content." He finished

"Yes. I was constructed to be, for various reasons, including contacting and/or destroying all threats to our efforts - you being considered an obstacle. However, because you are recognized as sentient, I am granted the option to inquire the contents of which you protect, and then I may cease my hostile operations. I would suggest you do so, as it would prove better for both of us.

"Do not worry, I can help you, like I said, i know people, people quite able enough to keep you very much alive if anything as undesirable as that occurs." - Mavis said, sounding more like a businesswoman than herself.

"tsu manage to get out of the tunnel"
ugh.......that was one long........................walk up.......

"I appreciate your offer," the Entity replied. "I am protecting a human child. She's useless, really. Children are demanding, filthy creatures who babble insistently and contribute nothing towards their environment other than the actions of processing wastes and consuming product. However, she is contained herein."

"Wait...you wern't sent to spy on me weren't you. You show up the same day as the other woman. Either you work for her to keep an eye on me or you work for their rivals. Oh God! I think I am having a heart attack!" Fortu paniced and clutched his chest.

Evil Dab watches her duckling army raid the fridge.
"I taught them well." She said still watching.

"Why do you not destroy it? Such inferior creatures are purposeless - it is why I am here. To see the permanent removal of them from this world." He said, sounding much colder in his speech.

"Oh my!" Mavis said, grabbing him as she called for help, pulling out her phone and dialing in A Number.

"Just sit tight. Help is on the way.." She said, panic in her eyes as she looked into his. The sound of Sirens in the short distance. Quite short.

"... Really? Nothing like "I love you Rylli" or "Stay strong Rachelle", really?... Alright then, whatever... floats your boat... Have a... pleasa-"

He was cut off by the train as it ran down Bran, his bloody body sent flying through the air. It came to a rest a little further down the track surprisingly still in one piece. The train stopped just before it hit him again, and the engineer rushes out to check Bran's body, unaware of the man in the dark suit's presence.

"... Nevermind then..."

He then walked down the track to where Rylli was chained down. He removed the gag from her mouth, but he didn't release her yet.

"Ms. Volkova, hello again. Comfortable?"

Bone Fort wrote:"Ms. Volkova, hello again. Comfortable?"

Rylli was sobbing at the death of her lover, but she still tried to bite at the man's fingers as he removed the gag.

"You bastard!" She screamed

Fortu's heart attack wasn't natural, he was playing dead. He didn't actually need his body, his head could support itself for twenty-four hours before the life support needed recharging.

The Drone Empire wrote:"Why do you not destroy it? Such inferior creatures are purposeless - it is why I am here. To see the permanent removal of them from this world." He said, sounding much colder in his speech.

"Such interior creatures are inferior. A rock is purposeless. A rock dropped from space serves a purpose. Humanity - these inferior beings - serve our purpose."
