Chaos... in the weeks that had followed the disappearance of several SWAT teams and most of the police personnel from various locations on the outskirts of the city had not gone unnoticed by the general public. As tensions rose and people began to panic the lack of law enforcement only exacerbated the situation more even as those at city hall told people not to panic. But it wasn't until the sudden reemergence of all the stolen vehicles did people go from shock to confusion, especially when they appeared to be accompanied by strange creatures both feral and anthro with many still wearing the tattered remains of their uniforms as they marched into the city. By the time everyone realized what their plans were it was too late; within a matter of hours the entire city went up in flames as people were merged with and taken over by creatures similar to those that patrolled to streets to aid in the conversion of citizens.

As night fell and any chance of rallying from the human population that became trapped within the city quickly waned thoughts outside the affected area turned from rescue to containment. With no idea on what was happening all anyone could do was try and keep anyone from accidently stumbling into a warzone, even the national guard being activated in order to try and not only keep the peace but keep whatever was spreading in the city contained. For the moment though all those that had been affected seemed to keep their attention inward as the national guard kept tabs on the situation as the sun disappeared completely and was replaced with the orange glow of various fires. With power disrupted it was the only thing that allowed some of the survivors to see, which also helped the squad of soldiers that were moving deeper into the city itself.

While most of the national guard was there to keep the quarantine Isabella had a different set of orders for her and her squad. As one of the best teams they were tasked with the infiltration of the city and extraction of a VIP that was trapped within the limits. While normally they would have considered it a lost cause they had gotten word that a number of survivors had managed to get to a secure bunker that was located underneath city hall itself. It was a good enough lead that they were going to try and give the mission a shot, especially since they only had to go a little way into the chaos of the burning city before they got into one of the nearby utility buildings and made their way down into the tunnels that ran underneath it.

"I don't like this," one of the men said as he hopped down after their squad leader, Isabella looking over to see her second in command Marcus cracking a glow stick to illuminate the area. "I know that there aren't many that know we have utility tunnels down here, but I doubt those freaks above aren't going to find out about these. Especially if someone stumbled upon them accidently and leads them all here while trying to escape."

"Your mouth is more likely to attract them down here then any survivor," another woman named Diane said as she came down next, followed by another guy named Roland who was their tech expert. As the rest of the squad chuckled at that Isabella shushed them all and told them to be quiet before they all give away their position, which prompted the rest to be silent and get serious as the last woman of their squad named Alisha that was the smallest of the group who shut the metal grate behind them. When she did they were completely surrounded by darkness save for the glowsticks that they had tossed ahead and behind them to make sure nothing snuck up on them while they regrouped.

Once they were all ready to go Isabella gave the command and they started to move forward with their guns raised. While the last thing she wanted to do was fire off a shot in these narrow concrete tunnels the reports that she had heard about what was happening to the people of this city was... disturbing to say the least. It was hard to get any intelligence from the area but it was clear that something was happening to the people themselves, many of the creatures that walked about looking like walking talking animals with some having tattered remains of their clothes on them. When she had asked her superiors what was causing it they told her that something was going on with the animals in the area, but they couldn't give her any more details than that.

It didn't matter at all to her anyway, Isabella thought to herself as she looked at her watch that had a timer counting down on it. Even with city hall being close to the middle of the city these tunnels would allow them access to the bunker in less then twenty minutes if they hurried and hopefully didn't encounter anything that was happening above. The first few minutes went rather smoothly as well, though as they moved their attention was grabbed with the sound of some sort of calamity or destruction above. Despite being several meters beneath concrete and soil they could still hear the screeching of tires or the sound of metal crunching as people no doubt continued to try and escape from whatever catastrophe has befallen the city.

When both Marcus and Alisha made mention of it Isabella told them both over the radio to stay quiet and keep on point. Though everyone quickly fell into line the tension of their mission still hung over them like an oppressive atmosphere. For their squad leader she tried to ignore it and just focus on the map that she had been given of the tunnel system to make sure that they got in and out as quick as possible. So far it seemed to be on point and as the group of four got to a large junction she remarked that they had managed to get to the downtown area.

As they took a second to regroup Isabella told Roland to see if he could get a signal and for Marcus and Alisha to check the other tunnels to see if they could seal them up somehow. She wasn't sure how much noise their extraction would cause once they got to the bunker but she wanted to try and mitigate anything ambushing them on the way back. As she also made a chalk marking to ensure they knew which tunnel was their way out she heard Roland ask for her to come over. Though the junction they were in wasn't very big the darkness made it hard to see anyone and it took Isabella several moments before she saw the glow of the computer screen coming up towards her.

"There's not much I could do with radio or phone signals," Roland explained as he handed the small computer to her. "But I did manage to tap into one of the local feeds that was still broadcasting. You're not going to believe this..."

Isabella's eyes widened as she saw that someone with a camera was filming just outside some sort of convenience store, and as the cameraman continued to dart between shelves he would turn back to where the shutters were. The metal was being pounded on by something and as it started to come off the track large, furred arms could be seen reaching through that were humanoid in nature but had the claws, pads, and markings of animals. "So, they are monsters after all..." Isabella said as she watched something slip through the gap, some sort of actual animal pouncing on the guy before the camera was dropped on the ground where it showed the shoes of the guy bursting out from wiggling talon-capped toes before the feed cut. "Wait, did I just see what I thought I saw?"

"Yeah, he was filming a woman that got pounced on by a husky before I called you over," Roland said as he switched off the device. "Whatever those animals are or have they are spreading it to humans, changing them into those freaks. Looks like Alisha was wrong about this being a cover-up..."

Just as Isabella was about to tell Roland to archive the footage they heard a gunshot ring out that caused them both to flinch. With the echo in the concrete chamber it was impossible to tell where it was fired from but as they saw Marcus cracking a handful of glow sticks they saw something else that was producing light. As the other three came together Marcus took the glow sticks and tossed them out into the junction, aiming for the area where the strange red glow was coming from. It didn't take long for the green light that radiated from them to illuminate the fourth member of their team, except that she wasn't alone as she staggered back towards them with something on her back.

"Get it off me!" Alisha screamed before she fell to her knees, which was when the others gasped as they saw the creature that she was shouting about. It looked like a fox, but it looked like its limbs had sunk into the body of the one that he had pounced on as the human tried to reach back to throw it off. "Someone help, it's doing something to ME!"

The voice of the woman dropped slightly at that last word and as both Marcus and Roland were about to go forward to help Isabella quickly shouted at them to stop and get back. The two looked back at her before a growl turned their attention back to their squad made, but as she gritted her teeth and arched her back they could see something happening to her chest. It was filling out, growing more muscular by the second, and as one of her hands went back to her shirt it ripped loudly from the new claws growing out of her fingers. She shouted something about her hands not being in her control and they could see why as red and white fur grew on the thickening appendages, her gasps and shouts turning into loud panting as her fingers sliced through her bra to expose her growing breasts being covered in white fur.

Isabella ordered the two to fall back with her with weapons raised at their former teammate, who fell to all fours as she seemed to be overwhelmed with another sensation. Both Marcus and Isabella had to put their hands on their mouths while Roland just stared wide-eyed as they saw that the cock of the fox had somehow bypassed her camo and was where her pussy would be, though as her hips thrusted forward they could see that something similar was stretching out the front of her pants. As the legs of the fox sank into the transforming human they saw her thighs bulk up almost instantly and caused the seams to tear, a bright red cock flopping out of her pants as she began to snarl and growl in pure pleasure.

That was enough for Isabella to see and she quietly ordered the other two to move out quickly and quietly, feeling her heart race as even though they turned to run into the darkness the image of that fox transforming her squad mate was front and center in her mind's eye. What the hell, she thought to herself as she tried to navigate through the tunnels while hearing a loud yowl echo through the tunnel behind them followed quickly by intense laughter, how could these creatures do such a thing? The reports said that they were intelligent but as she remembered looking into the face of the fox she swore she saw it smirking at her while taking over the woman beneath her. The worst part is that if there was one of those creatures in the tunnels there was probably more, and now one of those anthro creatures would be there as well that knows what their mission was.

Once they believed they had gotten far enough away the three stopped so that Isabella could reorient herself, the squad leader frowning when she realized they may have taken the wrong path more than once. "We need to get out of here," Roland said, the other two quickly shushing him while she examined the map. "Do not dismiss me, did you not see what just happened to Alisha?!"

"Keep your voice down!" Marcus hissed, the three looking around as they heard Roland's words echo around them. "If you don't want to become like her then we need to finish the mission and get out of here, and we need to do it silently. You got that?"

"No way, I didn't sign up to be taken over by some sort of ghost animal," Roland said as he took the computer satchel and dropped it to the ground. "I'm out of here..."

"Well the way out currently has a transformed herm fox in the middle of it," Isabella replied as she motioned for Marcus to stand down. "Now you can take your chances with her, you can try and wander randomly through these hallways, or you can stick with us and maybe I won't mention this to the higher-ups when we get done. Now we've seen the enemy, we know what they look like, so keep your head on a swivel and get to this bunker to finish the mission."

Though Roland was still practically trembling the message had gotten through to him, but while Isabella began to lead them once more to the City Hall bunker she also hadn't quite shaken off what she had just seen. It was one thing to lose a squad member, but to stand there as something took them over and mutated them into... that creature would probably stick with her forever. The only thing she could do though was to keep the rest of her squad safe, and as she got her bearings back the three navigated as quickly as they could to their goal. With all of them on edge however every bump and noise caused them to jump, the three stopping multiple times in order to turn off their flashlights and scan the darkness.

As they got to the center of the city though the three had stopped again and turned off their lights, but this time they saw a faint glow in the tunnel in front of them. Isabella felt her heart skip a beat as a low growl could be heard as the lupine head began to emerge from around the corner. The squad leader had just been looking at the map a few moments ago and as she took a few steps back she felt the concrete under her hand turn to air. As soon as she felt it she grabbed the other two and yanked them back before the glowing white wolf could fully emerge, but as she thought that perhaps they avoided detection the three heard a howl that indicated otherwise.

Almost immediately the three broke into a run, turning their lights back on so they could see. As their feet pounded on the concrete they could hear the sound of the animal chasing them as the glow began to get brighter. With the creature being faster Isabella thought to do the only thing that might slow it down, taking as many corners as they could to prevent the wolf from gaining speed. While they couldn't lose it completely it kept it from gaining until they could find a way to get away, though as she remembered the fox Isabella wondered just what sort of powers such an ethereal creature had.

Eventually their running got them to a section of the tunnels that was used for water control, and as Isabella looked around when they had run into a small room she found that the pipes had a hole to clear walls that was big enough for them to slide through. It was a long shot but she hoped that the wolf couldn't climb as she dropped her gun and told the other two to climb before doing so herself. As the three rushed to get up the somewhat rusty pipes they suddenly saw the wolf dart out from the passage and look around, his head immediately turning up to look at them. As Isabella hoped that it couldn't follow she looked down and saw the eyes of the wolf, which were completely solid white orbs that seemed to be more than capable of seeing them.

But for the moment it looked like her plan was working as they got up to the small platform of smaller pipes that ran near the ceiling. With her being the closest to the opening she quickly shimmied along with the other two right behind, but as she continued to watch the creature below it wasn't out of the chase just yet. It seemed to be calculating something and just as she got to the hole it began to bounce up one of the exit pipes that was on the opposite wall and hop to the next highest one. It had found a route to get to them, Isabella realized, and with the glow of the wolf illuminating the room she saw that the most likely path would land it right at the same place where she was sliding through to the other side.

The opening was narrower than she had originally anticipated and as she got to it she slid in feet first, turning around and grabbing onto the pipes to push herself and her pack through to the other side. Fortunately the wall wasn't too thick and it didn't take long before she was in the next room, though for her two squad mates the pressure was increasing as she could see the glow getting brighter. Marcus followed her lead and with there being more room on the other side she was able to help him as he got through the hole himself. The only one left was Roland but as she shouted for him to get the lead out she could see that he was still holding onto equipment that was slowing him down.

When the initial attempt for Roland to get through the concrete didn't work with him going in head first he finally pushed through the pack and then kicked it through with his feet before sliding in himself. Isabella quickly pushed the bag away and both she and Marcus grabbed onto a boot in order to pull him the rest of the way. Just as they did they were almost pulled into the wall, and with how much light was radiating from the opening the two marines looked at one another with concern. If the wolf had caught up to him... he could hear Roland shouting something but if the lupine creature was dragging him back it only meant they had to try harder to get him through.

As Isabella and Marcus gave another big pull they heard another shout come from Roland, but as his voice deepened and reverberated with a growl it caused them to stop. The pulling sensation they felt in the feet they were holding turned into the limbs quivering and she found herself looking down to see that the camo pants were tightening quickly. With the angle that the two were at they couldn't see it but as the shouts turned to snarls and grunts grew more lustful they could see the bulge of the wolf's hind legs literally pushing through the inside of the human's. Just as they reached the feet both dropped the boot as the sole burst at the seam and a set of white-furred toes pushed their way out with thick talons sprouting out of them.

The lower body of the transforming man began to quake and as the muscle expanded even more, tearing the pants at the seam and exposing the cock that had pushed up past the waistline. The throbbing flesh was a bright red and as more fur pushed its way from the damaged clothes they could see that the ethereal hips of the lupine creature were humping into the human in time with the jumps of the thickening tool. Isabella quickly ordered Marcus to get back and as they did they saw the growing legs get pulled in, seeing the boots still splitting down the seam as the lupine paw swelled and bulged with muscle. As the two began to back away from the opening they watched as the trembling limbs disappeared and the glow on the other side quickly diminished.

For a few moments the two continued to stare at the open before Isabella told him to start moving, but before they could turn around they suddenly saw Roland's head appear that caused them both to jump. As the ears on his head began to lengthen and his nose turned black though it was clear that it wasn't Roland in control, especially as his eyes began to turn an amber color while they looked up at the two. "Where do you think you're going..." the one controlling Roland said, his teeth visibly sharpening as his face began to push out into a muzzle as the wolf head behind it was merging with the human's skull.

"You're lucky I had to drop my gun monster," Isabella said, trying to hide her surprise that those that had been converted could still talk. "Otherwise I wouldn't give you the satisfaction of taking over my squad."

"Just give in..." the creature growled, though it was getting harder for them to understand what was being said as they saw Roland's biceps and forearms bulge out in a similar manner to his legs. "Soon... you'll all.. be us... it's already... too... late!" The two jumped back once more as a clawed hand reached out to grab them, but with the growing body getting bigger by the second it couldn't make it through the gap. The wolf man that Roland was becoming no longer seemed interested in talking as his growing jaws snapped at the two and Isabella motioned to her remaining squad member that it was time to go.

Even though the wolf creature was stuck the two quickly made their way out of the utility tunnel and back into the maze of concrete hallways. With half their squad transformed Isabella and Marcus knew that their changes of successfully completing the mission were dire, especially if they had their scent, but when she checked the map and saw that they were only a few blocks away from the bunker they knew that they had to try. If they ran now then the two being caught would be for nothing, Isabella thought to herself as she regained her bearings with the map while Marcus kept a look out, and she would make sure that once they got back they would do everything to help them. Not just the two from her squad either, whatever it took to put people back to right would be her next mission as they got to the basement of City Hall.

But as they made their way towards the vault they quickly found that they were not alone. The defenses for the building itself had fallen a long time ago and as the two snuck through the basement rooms of the administrative buildings they could see various creatures roaming the halls. It seemed many of them were cat and dog morphs and many still had on the tattered remains of office clothing or vestiges of their old uniforms on. There were also those that had the remains of security uniforms and whether or not they were still intelligent was quickly confirmed when they saw them using flashlights and weapons as Isabella recognized them.

"SWAT uniforms..." Isabella whispered once they had gotten to an area that had shelves upon shelves of documents which they guessed was the archive room. "Those were the ones that had disappeared... so they really did lead the charge in converting everyone, I bet they made a straight shot for this place."

"That means they would know about the panic room," Marcus whispered back.

"Yeah, which means if we fail it probably won't hold for another team to get here," Isabella said. "Now according to the file the entrance should be in this room hidden behind the shelves for old commercial zoning records." As the two looked at the back wall with their flashlights both of them frowned. "Which... appears that is what the majority of this room is."

"I guess that means trial and error," Marcus stated as they went up to the first set of heavy metal shelves, rotating the wheel so they would form a gap that exposed the back wall. As they knocked on the plaster and found it to be solid they heard a growl and saw the shadow of a creature pass by the door. "Really, really quick trial and error."

Since the room had a divider in it they split the archive room in half, Marcus taking the side they were already on while Isabella went over to the opposite wall to search quicker. As the seconds turned to minutes and they continued to move the heavy steel shelves she was aware of how much noise they were making and knew there was nothing they could do about it. Just as she began to think that they had gotten the area wrong though she saw that one of the shelves pulled back to reveal the edge of the bunker door that had already been exposed. Finally, she thought to herself, calling out to Marcus that she found it as she moved the shelves so that the entire door was revealed.

As she looked at the metal door Isabella found a green glow catching the edge of her vision and expected to have a bunch of glow sticks thrown about, but before she approached the bunker she heard a loud shout that caused her to spin about. She turned just in time to see Marcus fall forward and land on the ground hard as the glowing alligator that had tripped him in the first place quickly scrambled up his body. Her hands went to her side where her weapon would normally be, but even as her fingers grasped at empty air she could already see it wouldn't do any good as the short, stubby arms of the reptilian creature sank down into the shoulder blades of the human.

Thick green scales could already be seen on his neck as Marcus told her to go and get the assets while he tried to hold of the changes, and though Isabella wanted desperately to try and save him she knew that trying to do so would just jeopardize things further. These creatures were an unknown entity and just touching them could cause all three to merge into something as she bolstered her resolve and gave him a nod. She was going to complete this mission... but with her last squadmate being converted right there at the entrance the clock was quickly clicking down. She tried to ignore the groans that were coming from the room as she went into the space created by the shelves and pressed the call button with the signal for them to open up.

Just as she took a step back to allow the door to open however Isabella's eyes widened as she felt something heavy flop down on her shoulders, grabbing onto the nearby shelves to try and prevent herself from falling backwards as she was pulled back. Her efforts were futile though but when she landed it was not the floor she fell upon, instead it was stomach of the lion that had gotten behind her. If the heavy tan-furred paws that had wrapped around her waist or the hind legs of the creature that were pressed against hers wasn't enough of an indicator she could see the head of the feline from her head falling back. Its golden eyes seemed to look right at her and the creature's strength was felt as she tried to roll off of it but found herself pinned by his forelimbs.

Isabella could also gather that it was a male lion not only from the thick mane of hair but the throbbing cock that had begun to push up inside of her pussy, bypassing the pants and underwear she wore just like with the others in the squad. She didn't have much time to contemplate how these creatures were able to do this as the first wave of pleasure hit her from being stretched open. Even as she was being penetrated by the feline member her disciplined mind tried to figure out how to escape, how to at least prevent herself from becoming one of them to report back, but as she felt her body getting lower and saw those forepaws pressing against her breasts she could feel her chest starting to expand.

With so much of the lion pressing against her body while beneath her Isabella felt like the changes were going faster than with the others, though the creature seemed to be intentionally leaving their head apart while propping hers up with his neck. He wants her to watch... this lion wants her to see him take over her body, to change it like the others had been. As though it could read her thoughts there was a snort from the feline to confirm her suspicions before it began to thrust its hips in a way to stimulate her further. Whatever allowed these creatures to take over bodies also seemed to raise her libido, and as her lust grew to fog her mind a fleeting thought that she would be a lioness was quickly dashed when she saw the groin of her pants begin to tent.

The main changes were still happening where her back pressed against the lion as well as getting plowed in her pussy, her breasts growing bigger to the point it was causing her bra to strain. The lion seemed more than happy to release her and with a swipe of his forepaws she found the middle of her shirt ripped apart and the offending garment snapped in the middle. As her breathing quickened with each pump of the cock inside her snatch she could see brilliant white fur growing between her boobs, which while she never considered small were growing larger to the point they heaved with her breath. But that wasn't the only thing growing as her flat, fur-covered stomach became more defined with muscle that was seen, her shirt getting pulled up from the muscle and height she was gaining as she saw the tip of something stretching out her waistband.

A cock... this lion was growing a cock out of her body, and the worst part was as her hips were being thrusted up and down it felt so good rubbing against the fur of her groin. With her arms still untouched by the creature, the forelimbs content in keeping her sinking down into his body, she found them trembling as they drifted downwards. She could also feel a tail growing out of her backside and it was causing the fabric clinging to her hips to become increasingly uncomfortable, but as she was about to reach down to release herself those large paws slapped themselves on top of hers. The instant they did so they stuck to the back of her hands and she let out a half-pleasured, half-startled cry as she could feel the digits of the feline creature sinking into her human ones that immediately began to fatten with new growth.

As the hands of her palms darkened and fur immediately sprouted around the claws that were merging with her fingernails Isabella could see the hind paws of the lion start to press against her boots. With her pussy impaled by the lion's cock and her hands no longer under her control all she could do was watch and feel them push their way into her feet, causing them to grow and expand. At first the hind paws just disappeared into her but the more they pushed in the more the leather of her boots began to swell, but unlike with the others this one seemed more than eager to take his time with her. She gritted her teeth, which had begun to grow sharper despite their heads still being separate, as the growing appendages slowly caused the leather of her shoes to swell while the laces grew tauter by the second.

It was like it was toying with her body just to see what would happen, Isabella managed to think even with the sensations of the sensitive spire of flesh still growing out of her groin joining her stretched pussy. It had gotten big enough that she could see inside her pants and saw that a sheath had formed around the growing cock, which had already pushed its way out of it as the head slid out into the air. Her nostrils flared as they darkened, her nose flattening slightly as this creature drove her mad with need. All her military discipline and training was lost as she would have begged this creature to take her body if it meant he would touch themselves.

Sensing her crumbling resolve the lion pushed the process forward; the feline seemed to know that she had to have her resolve broken before fulling taking her over, and as she continued to pant the lion finally shoved his paws in completely. There was a loud snap as the laces of her boots gave way and the sole split from the top part, giving her new furry feet paws what looked like a pair of greaves as the feline squeezed his partially merged hind legs against hers to sink them in completely. He did the same thing to her arms as well and when the cock that had been stimulating her for so long finally pushed the rest of the way into the new throbbing shaft it was quickly replaced with her fingers as she lost control of her limbs. With most of her body changed Isabella groaned as she felt herself get shifted about so she was on all fours, one hand stroking her cock and the other plunging into her snatch as she found herself facing the door.

For a brief moment she regained a sense of clarity as Isabella remembered the mission as the door to the bunker opened. She had failed... and as she saw movement out of the corner of her eye it was of a thickly muscled gator man with a huge cock and the tatters of his squad uniform around his heavily muscled form. Soon she would join him once again and they would turn the very VIP that they had come to save, except as the door fully opened and the lights flickered on they found that there were a dozen or so anthros engaged in a full-blown orgy within. So the mission was doomed from the start, it was the last thing Isabella thought before she gasped as the head of the lion nuzzled against hers.

With her squad lost and being shown that her task was failed there was little resistance as the fur of the lion quickly spread over Isabella's skull, her ears morphing into rounded versions on her head as her long brown hair grew shaggy and spread down her neck. Her face was briefly frozen in shock and a moan escaped her lips before they blackened and puffed out, growing into a muzzle that had pushed into her face as the eyes that stared out turned to the same gold that she had seen briefly before. "Finally..." the lion herm said as the last of the human features disappeared while he used his new clawed hands to stand up, only to find a second scaly pair reach around from behind and squeeze his breasts.

"Our mission has succeeded," the alligator man said as he pushed his cock up into the tailhole of the herm lion in front of him, the two smirking at one another as they saw the orgy of anthros in the other room looking at them. "I think it's time to celebrate now that this city is ours..."
