Chapter 8

Onboard the Zubr-class LCAC

CIF 2 members were Cronen Squall, M16, BAS-B, SOP II, SideWinder, MTZ-762, RO635, Polina, Claire, Angelia II, Aiden, AK-47 and M13C were at Zubr-clas LCAC.

Michael: *COMMS* CIF 2, this is Odin. We have a category 3 Cryptid outbreak in progress aboard the ship

All: What?!

Claire: It's happening...

Aiden: All this time, that there's more Cryptid outbreak in the middle of OCEAN!

Angelia II: Aiden, calm down...

SideWinder: Welp, were fuck... in the middle of the storm...

MTZ-762: Apparently, my calcuation is correct *looking through his visor* The storm is getting heavier, if the research ship will stay much longer...

Claire: It will sink...

Michael: *COMMS* That will likely hear that Claire, your objective is to secure a double agent and rescue Taylor holed up somewhere inside.

BAS-B: But why did the Nightfall bastard captured Recon?

Claire: Because Archer is planning something worst...

M13C: Why is that?

Claire: Becuase unlike KCCO, and William going after OGAS from Elisa and M4, Archer is planning to use Emilia and Taylor as keys for that colony.

M16: What kind of Colony?

Claire: 16, 47, SOP and RO your about to witness the outbreak, of what's going on out there...

Cronen Squall: Yeah, the Outbreak of the Colorado was the tip of the iceberg.

RO635: Outbreak in Colorado?

Polina: Why the outbreak in Colorado?

Claire: Because you believe, that happened in 2017 after the Odin strike, the creatures called Cryptids were unleashed in Caldera Peak. So I have no time for the long story.

Captain: *COMMS* Alright CIF 2 were here!

The CIF 2 watched seeing the Research vessel, Stormbreaker was anchored on the middle of South Pacific while Michael informed them about the new Cryptid Lifeforms.

Michael: *COMMS* Bio-readings suggest we're dealing with new Cryptid lifeforms.

All: New Lifeforms.

M13C: What does it look like?

Michael: *COMMS* We don't know what's waiting for you in there. Keep up the pace, eliminate threat, and rescue Taylor and Emilia. Odin out.

Zubr opened the hanger door in the front, releasing CIF 2 aboard the vessel as Zubr drives away.

The CIF 2 arrived at the hanger bay with tons of military vehicles, the team realized everyone was not there including the corpse.

AK-47: Where is everyone?

MTZ-762: Simple calcuation correct, some of the corpse were eaten by Cryptids, to hide the bodies.

Polina: The Cryptids were doing this?

Claire: Yeah, the simple first, destroyed the Hives, that's the primary objective, but there are more of them inside the vessel. Stay sharp.

The team moves but the cargo door opened seeing Cryptid appeared, MTZ-762 fire his pistol at the head and down. The team continues when M13C and AK-47 were scared as they walked, they felt their hands shaking while holding their guns.

M13C: Damn, everything is creepy, like a freaking ghost ship.

AK-47: Y-yeah... all thanks to Squall bringing us here...

Cronen Squall: Hey I can hear you two... that for starring at us for teasing.

M13C: Hey, that was my important romance movie you guys.

Aiden: *smirks* Dumbass.

Walking on the second the deck, checking the hallway corridor, and moves forward. Then on the right, they see the door. Claire use the passcode to enter but its jammed.

Claire: Doors, Jam, Havel deploy the drill.

MTZ-762 nodded, he place the drill at the door, as the drill deep into the door, MTZ-762 ready his weapon and he use his visor to scanned the drilling process, when suddenly heard a noise.

MTZ-762: The drill is in progress on 30% Prepare your weapons, we got incoming Bogys.

Polina, Aiden, Angelia II, SOP II, RO635, M16, MTZ-762, BAS-B, Cronen Squall, SideWinder, M13C and AK-47 ready their guns if something coming towards them. Cronen Squall looked on his HUD, switch into thermal scope, he can see through walls noticed a creature crawling in the vent.

Cronen Squall: Got creature coming from the vent. SideWinder wait for my signal, the commander handle the front.

SideWinder nodded, he aimed slowly at the vent, in silence, the ventilation burst, and SideWinder panic, pull the trigger, and shot the Cryptid Scout making the Cryptid Scout scream in pain, as if it was a baby, screaming for his mother, the mother of Cryptid appeared to be hunter, she glared at SideWinder for shooting her baby as RO635 screech in panic.

RO635: Uh oh. She's angry.

M13C: Do something!!

SideWinder walked closer, tries to calm the Cryptid as if like a dog.

SideWinder: Easy puppy. A... Aww, shit.

SideWinder see a Rhino bashed through the wall, hit SideWinder on another Wall.

RO635: SideWinder!

M13C: Take it down!

M13C and AK-47 fire their guns at Rhino, but the top has an armor. When AK-47 dropped her gun, she sheeplish hugged him if she going to die so can he.

AK-47: *sheepish cry* I Don't wanna die!

M13C: *scared* S-so am I!!

M13C still scared while fire the rounds at the Rhino, the bullet hit right to the mouth and killed the Rhino, as he hit on the ground. The two looked down at the dead Rhino while more still coming, BAS-B throw some C4 and decimated some Cryptids, SideWinder place the automatic sentry. 

M13C: D-did I get it?

Aiden: Yes, you killed that Rhino, also you can let go each other now.

While Aiden still engaging Cryptids, M13C felt AK-47 hugging him, both turned their heads, and looking each other's on their eyes. In silence, AK-47 blushed and let go, grabbed her gun on the ground.

AK-47: *Blushed* Blyat, I just hugged him!!

Cronen Squall chuckles seeing both just hugged when they scared of encountering Cryptids.

Cronen Squall: Gotcha you two.

After the first wave battle, the door, the group enters the room, Michael heard on the radio.

Michael: *COMMS* Good work, CIF 2. There must be other stashes like this one hidden aboard.

CIF 2 enters the room, find some stashes for their ammo or equipment that they can find.

Polina and Angelia check the monitors, of seeing a massive sonar.

Polina: What is that coming outside from the sonar?

Angelia: I don't know, it doesn't look like a whale.

Angelia's eyes turned to the computer which has a record, she plays it. They could hear Archer's dialogue.

David Archer: The investors who bankrupted the Nightfall Program believed my comrades and I were in a bio-weapons business. To them, the Cryptids were the end product. But to those of us who were aware of Nightfall's true objective, the Cryptids were merely the means to another end. We knew there must be other colonies, like the one we found in Colorado and Finland.

Polina: Another Colony?

Angelia II: What was Archer doing?

David Archer: We believed the Cryptids could lead us to them. I never guessed the kept we'd been searching for would turn out to be human, however to another Automonus Doll, one Doll appeared to be same as her. Now I've new patrons, a ship and a crew. Our journey is almost at an end. Dr Lahti is the beacon that lights our course and to Taylor he is known to be a God. The closer we get, the brighter both shines.

M16 appeared to alongside Cronen Squall, hearing Archer's Dialogoue.

Angelia II: So this is what Archer's doing? Using Lahti and Taylor as beacon of light and the key to colony.

M16: Its just like my sister too, she is also too immune to the OGAS that William and KCCO were looking for.

Aiden and BAS-B opened the lockers, find some weapons that they can find.

They walked down back to the hanger, there they find another Hives blocking their entrance. 

Claire: Two Hives, they're blocking our entrance to another... everyone prepare for the second round.

Aiden sees a minigun on top of APC. Aiden gestured, he climb on top of the APC, he can use it for defense, Polina also sent up automatic sentry. Claire then place the drill on the hives as it drill process starts.

Polina looked up seeing three Cryptids on the catwalk. She shout to the rest!

Polina: Look out! Incoming Cryptids!

The three seeder jumped down, and Claire panic to the others.

Claire: Seeders! Get back!

MTZ-762: Take cover!

The three seeders explode as they get away from the explosion. More seeders are coming like large numbers, AK-47 and M13C were at top of the APC beside Aiden using the minigun.

BAS-B and SOP II, the two-explosion duo, fire grenades and throws some C4 at Cryptid Seeder.

SOP II: Bang! Bang! Bang! Everything's destroyed! *sadistic laugh*

SOP II launch more grenade from her launcher, destroying more Cryptids seeders as for BAS-B, he place every C4 on the floor, when Seeders approach, he press the detonator, and decimated more, BAS-B holds his Battle Rifle fire rounds at the seeders as they explode itself, he throws more C4.

BAS-B: Bring it on, bitches! Scream louder! *sadistic laugh*

BAS-B press the detonator and more Seeder explodes, while AK-47 and M13C felt nervous at those two.

M13C and AK-47: *chuckles nervously* Those two are really battle nuts.

Polina wacked her gun at the Seeders it explodes, Polina shout at MTZ-762.

Polina: Havel!

MTZ-762 check the drill process.

MTZ-762: 99%!

Claire: We're almost there, those Seeders getting lots of Kamikaze.

The drill reach the core, two hives were destroyed, Claire looked back as the hives was finally destroyed.

Claire: Everyone, let's go! Move! Move!

CIF 2 Team runs to another room leading downstairs, there they can find a door was shut, MTZ-762 carried the drill and start drilling the door.

Claire: Get ready another rounds.

M16: Damn, those creatures doesn't give up?

Claire: They're trying to be defending something, keep it pace 16.

The Hunters appeared jumping off the ledge, reaching to the drill, RO635 shoot the hunters. Aiden, and Polina joined her engaging the hunters, SideWinder, BAS-B, SOP II, M16 and Cronen Squall engage the Cryptids, while two guard the drill.

The Rhino appeared again bashing through walls, the Rhino dash towards the group, the group opened fire on the Rhino but the armor is very strong with more Hunters behind them.

Cronen Squall: Mierda! These things are tough.

Then the drill then opened the door as group enters to another hanger room on the side of the ship. Claire check everything.

Claire: Must the submarine pod escape.

Angelia: But still no pod.

They walked the stairs; there they find a hives blocking the entrance. MTZ-762 place the drill suddenly, Michael can be heard on the radio as they noticed a ship shaking.

SideWinder: What was that?

BAS-B: Must be hit by the waves.

Michael: *COMMS* Brace for impact, CIF 2 A massive sonar contact's closing in fast.

CIF 2 sees the hanger door bang, it must be coming from outside the ship.

Aiden ready his minigun from APC, Angelia too got the Automatic sentry ready and rest ready their guns.

Claire: Get ready.

https://youtu.be/qKjnemF1v_c

Outside the Stormbreaker, a giant tentacle crawling onto the ship while one tentacles bashing the door. The door breaks and tentacles appeared with a mouth wide opened roar. That tenatcles with a mouth was just like Elephant Trunk.

SOP II: What is that?!

BAS-B: Holy shit, big tentacles!!

SideWinder: I guess this is not a real Squid nor Kraken!

Claire: This must be a sea monster Cryptid.

M13C and AK-47: SEA MONSTER CRYPTID!?

Both got freaked out about sea monster is cryptid.

Cronen Squall: We're gonna need a big rocket launcher.

MTZ-762: Everyone! Aimed at the core on the mouth piece!

MTZ-762 pointed at the mouth core of the tentacles, Claire and the rest nodded

Claire: Opened fire!

CIF 2 fire their guns at the tenacles, aiming at the mouth core, however, that tentacles was not alone, the hunters appeared. Polina shout.

Polina: Hunters!

Polina, Angelia II, AK-47 and M13C engage the hunters while the rest focus on the Tentacles. The Tentacles gets more hits from CIF 2, the drilling process going slow.

BAS-B throw C4 on the tentacle's parts, detonate the tentacles as a distraction. The tentacles slammed on the ground were BAS-B standing, BAS-B and SOP II dodge the Tentacles while CIF 2 still firing the tentacles.

After the Hive destroyed by the drill, the tentacles then retreated, Aiden finished the remaining cryptids off. 

SideWinder: Did we get it?

Michael: *COMMS* No that thing is headed back to the bottom, but I got a feeling it'll be back soon.

Cronen Squall: God damn, that tentacles is tough, we more firepower of that.

Claire: Let's just focus on the mission let's move.

They walk through the hallway, there they went to another room.

Aiden: Search these, room, maybe we can find something useful.

Everyone scattered, the room. Angelia opened the stashes, there she find a prototype Rifle resemble of AKS-74U.

Angelia II: Nice...

She kept the AK Prototype weapon for her own used. Aiden then handed an extra ammo from the stashes for her. Angelia II starred Aiden, who handed an Ammo for her, she just blushed a bit. Polina saw those two.

M13C check the lockers only find a special ammo box.

AK-47: What did you get?

M13C: Special ammo box

AK-47: Special Ammo?

M13C: Must be anti-armor or something...

SideWinder, MTZ-762 and RO635 entered the room, MTZ-762 check the monitors and SideWinder and RO635 check the lockers. While finding something useful, SideWinder noticed a computer with a three video record.

SideWinder plays it and heard Archer's dialogue

David Archer: Five hundred years ago, Aztec scouts reported contact with an army of fierce, four-legged demons. The demons wore iron shoes and leather masks and were attended to by strange pale-skinned slaves. You see, the Aztecs had never seen a horse before. They were so mesmerized by the sight of the Spanish stallions, they hardly spared a glance at the cold-eyed killers riding on their backs. The Cryptids lie low Spanish stallions, beasts of war, bred for battle, trained to obey. I studied the after-action reports from that first Cryptid contact in Colorado. I sensed an intelligence beyond mere animal instinct. I saw coordination, communication, control. Something was giving the Cryptids command right up until the Nuke went off, and brought them out and down. The Aztecs failed to recognize the true face of the enemy, and it cost them everything. I won't make the same mistake

SideSwider: *muttering* What does it mean, same mistakes?

He checks another video dialogue

David Archer: In another lifetime, I saw Taliban tribesmen bring down a thirty milliuon dollar NATO drone by overriding the GPS guide signal with a three-hundred-dollar HAM radio. If the Arks are awakened, we'll be the ones hiding in caves. We won't stand a chance in a head on fight. But we can take a lesson from those mountain tribesmen... Sever the enemy commanders from their Cryptid Warriors, turn the dogs of war against their own masters. We've learned a great deal from watching Doctor Lahti with our Cryptid lab rats. The Cryptid brain is designed to receive orders... All we need is a brain that can broadcast them. In the stories, Perseus cut off Medusa's head to create the ultimate weapon. Soon we'll find out if an old trick still works.

Then RO635 came hearing Archer's dialogue.

RO635: What was Archer talking about?

SideWinder: He's talking about those Cryptid Brains. Those brain were design to receive orders from their masters and use them for broadcast.

He then check final dialogue

David Archer: Back in 2033, some allies, like Inner Circles, found a Doll that they captured, that doll is a boy, his name is Taylor. So far we send him to the Kersty prison in ST Petersburg. I analysis, his Dolls mechanism, that Doll appeared to be blood genes, which somehow, hybrid genes. I could so far believe the Cryptid's genes, were normal, but for their masters, I got a feeling, this Doll is a hybrid gene to the Cryptid Master and other but none other than fallen soldiers. I heard that, Doll were design to modified from the fallen Soldiers Genes. I came the good feeling, Taylor could be a God like other strongest God: Posideon, Zeus, Athena, Hades, Ares, Apollo, Hephaestus, Artemis, Demeter, Nike, Hera, Dionysus, and yeah everything is Greek Gods is powerful except for the Norse, Shinto, Egyptian and everything mythical Gods. Taylor will be use to command the Cryptids.

to be continued.
