#6 of Human Experimentation: Redux

The second part to the chapter I left earlier. May be short but It's my somewhat there OCD that's been preventing this from even getting a post. So not what I promised completely but it's there.


Human Experimentation: Redux: The Fire Loves Fuel: P2

Quick little notes for you kiddies, all words Italicized is either Robot speech, or listing a song's name.

Greg stood there with Haiden nearby, his mind in turmoil and his nerves shattering. His eyes had tears in them, and his fists were clenched. Two things were in his mind, both screaming and yelling at him to run away and to fight.

Haiden looked up at the hyena hybrid and wondered what was going on as Greg shook and trembled. His breathing became erratic and suddenly the world went blank for Greg as Haiden watched without knowing what exactly to do.

Isaac and the others, meanwhile, were starting their assault.

"Do what you will everyone!" Isaac yelled at the top of his lungs, "They hurt Amy, and they shall pay!"

Everyone else nodded and continued running toward the silhouettes at full speed.

Meanwhile... In the main observations labs of the Mackenzie building, a scientist was going through the procedures to get in.

-Retinal Scan- COMPLETE ...

-Finger Print Scan- COMPLETE ...

"Avenged Sevenfold, Five Finger Death Punch" -Voice Recognition- COMPLETE Welcome Back, Dr. Rueger.

"Thanks Eva, keep talking in that sexy robot voice of yours."

EVA Thanks Dr. Rueger

The scientist known as Paul Rueger looked up at the almost electronic eye, and smiled, remembering how much as a gamer his creations looked like video game objects.

Picking up the cup of coffee that he arranged for there to be every day he continued down the hall, saying hi to the many subordinates who looked at him in both awe and fear. When he picked up the clipboard that contained all of the recent mutations and biological items in development he saw the Solution-96Z was currently being tested.

His eyes scanned over it again and again, making sure he was reading it right, and when he finally saw that it was the solution he was working on lately his voice tensed.

"WHO AUTHORIZED 96Z?!" People in the lab all paused and looked at their boss, whose voice rang out clear and angry. "For the love of GOD , who the fuck authorized it!?"

Finally a young scientist spoke up, his hair was salt and pepper and his lab coat had the black mark that only top tier level scientists had. "I did, sir."

"Why?!" Dr. Rueger's hands flew up, and by doing so launched the liquid in his coffee cup over on a set of equipment, to which he sighed."Someone clean that off, thank god I had everything idiot proofed... for me mostly but... Anyhow, Tom! Tell me why you authorized it."

"You said the solution was ready for testing, I obtained 156 candidates and begun testing only yesterday." Tom reached around back to his desk, pulled up reports on his computer, and grabbed his own clipboard, which he brought up to Dr. Rueger. "Currently 25 of that 156 are mutated, the other 131 are awaiting mutation. Of the 25 mutated only 12 remained sane the other 13 were humanely killed and are now being dissected, and the remaining 12 are being put through... " Stress" testing."

"Where and what kind?" Dr. Rueger looked at the clipboard handed to him, while also switching back to look at Tom as well.

"The Labyrinth and.... Hard?"

"Well I guess it can't be helped then, continue."

Tom then did a little cheerful a gesture and smiled wickedly, "Oh goody, the clones were about to play as well!"

"You started those too? What the fuck have you been doing Tom?" Paul looked over at the crazy looking scientist, "Just tell me they're doing well at least."

"Yep! What's more is now they've become soldiers! With the knowledge imprinted in them at the creation lab they're ruthless killers. And if I recall correctly you made me start those up about 4 weeks ago."

Rueger looked at him and scratched his head, "Oh yeah. Well, just tell me what happens... and get me another cup of coffee." With that Dr. Rueger went into his own private lab within the main lab.

Once the soundproof door closed, he quickly whispered, "Eva, please shut him and every other top ranking scientist out of my tests. If they want to test anything of mine there's new restrictions. Rule one is they'll need a passphrase and rule two is a onetime use authorization code. Oh, start song Canto 34 and bring up a few monitors to show me how the new mutations are going, I wanna see how it's going."

Right away sir, is there anything else you'd like?

_ _

"Makes sure whoever gets me my coffee, either puts a lot of creamer in the coffee, or just have them bring a bottle of French vanilla with it. And send in Christie and Alice too please."

Will do, Dr. Rueger.

Back in the maze thing were getting heated.

"Skaroth, kill him already!" Isaac yelled out while his arms held down one of the soldiers, which were the silhouettes from earlier.

"I'm trying damn it!" Skaroth said as his fists impacted with the man's helmeted head. "But this is really difficult, Y'know!"

Skaroth's fists kept hitting the soldier but the Helmet took the hits in stride, its mesh carbon fiber mix rippling like a slab of jelly. The soldier who had been tackled by Skaroth only kept taking the hits, lightly grunting with each blow, not fighting back.

Fiad nearby was having the same sort of difficulties, armor repelling all hits by taking most of the force behind the blows. The soldier he was attacking however laughed at the hits, making Fiad increase in his tempo, beating away faster and faster as the soldier laughed even more.

"The hell is with these guys!?" Fiad practically roared out, "They take these hits like nothing, and then have the audacity to laugh about it!"

"Yeah, I know!" came Skaroth's voice tinged with sarcasm.

While the two were having problems trying to get at the soldiers John, Isaac, and Chloe were doing their best to fight two soldiers at once.

"John, get that one and me and Chloe will get this one."

John nodded and almost instantly went to tackle the soldier that Isaac had indicated. His jump landed him at the man's shins, making him buckle and land directly on his face, cracking his helmet's visor. As quickly as he had fallen, the soldier rolled and got to his feet again taking up a fighting stance.

John got up as well, and took a fighting stance to mirror the man's own, and chuckled. "Isaac, these guys know karate it would seem."

"Well you know what to do then, so do it! Chloe and I have to deal with this guy!" Isaac grinned, Chloe's rifle in hand. Chloe stood back, away from Isaac giving him room to operate.

The soldier he was fighting pulled out a smaller looking sword, resembling that of a katana, except shorter. Its edge glinted even in the darker room, whose light was only that of dawn. Isaac grinned and flipped the gun around, as its clip was empty, and used the gun as an improvised club.

"Come get it FUCKER!"

"Don't curse, I don't like it." Chloe said through their mental link.

Isaac cringed slightly, and went for the charge. The rifle was brought back to Isaac's shoulder and swung at the soldier with the small blade.

The soldier brought up his small katana and held Isaac and Chloe's gun above him. As Isaac pressed down on the small sword the soldier let go of his resistance. His body, as soon as he let go, moved out of the way of Isaac's attack. Isaac hit the ground with his gun hard , chipping the white floor and sending flecks flying.

The soldier saw this as an opening and moved behind Isaac. He swiftly moved and stabbed him with the small blade, sinking six inches of the two foot sword into Isaac's side. Chloe at that point was in motion but almost as soon as the sword went into Isaac the soldier pulled it out whipped around and was ready for Chloe.

Chloe lunged at the man, claws out and teeth bared and moved her hands in a downward arc. The man being quicker raised his left arm and took the claws to his forearm. The force behind Chloe's aggressive lunge left gashes, and the man cringed in obvious pain before striking back with his short blade leaving a large gash on the side of Chloe's own side.

Chloe not expecting such fast reaction quickly felt the pain and doubled over as she felt blood leak out of her side. Without any of the group wearing clothes the blood only could be released and not contained. The man with the sword quickly put it away and moved his not bleeding free hand near his face open palmed. The other soldiers saw this and quit all motion momentarily; when the man sensed he had all attention his closed his hand in a fist, and the other soldiers reacted.

The two soldiers that were being attacked by Fiad and Skaroth almost immediately threw the two hybrids off. The two men stood up and went over to the collapsed group members, picking them up by the back of the neck and tightened their fists. Two prongs popped out of their gloves, they looked down at the hybrids and then punched them in the chest.

Skaroth and Fiad's eyes shot open, the prongs having injected a compound into their blood stream. Both of their muscles seized up, locking them in the positions they were punched in.

One of soldiers bent low and looked at Fiad, shiny visor reflecting Fiad's gaze right back at him. Then there was a laugh.

"Sir, is this the enemy we were to be afraid of?" The one bent low cracked out in an almost robotic voice, "This was nothing, all fucking talk sir."

The one man who had stabbed both Isaac and slashed at Chloe looked up, "This was a capture mission but some men are dead... is that fucking talk to you Shiv?"

Shiv merely looked at his feet, "Guess not if Tack and Stretch are dead."

"Ok, so get these things patched up and get the carrier, we kind of need it."

Shiv shrugged and started walking in the direction that they had came, soon returning with their mobile WATT D. (Weapons and Troop Transport Device)

"Get these things patched up, put them on the WATT and then we get out of here... fucking Labyrinth." He motioned for the other three men to do what he commanded and he grabbed a rifle out from one of the containers on the WATT, "While you guys do this I'm going to incapacitate the other two."

Rueger merely looked down at his coffee cup which was almost 30% creamer and then back at the two girls who were in his office while casually taking a sip. "Do either of you know what the hell has been going on, or can you at least give me an idea as to what Tom's doing?"

Alice, the younger and more immature of the two girls, spoke up. "Doing what you told him to, Rue!" Her grin grew bigger and voice a little more cheerful, "He grabbed one of your vials, the 96Z, made some mutants and is now also testing the cloning vats out for a spin."

This made Rueger smile, but also scoff. "I know what he is doing, I meant why." He gestured toward the screen, which had the three men piling first aid treated hybrids onto the WATT. "There seems to be a loop I'm not in and that's going to stop."

Ok so this is where I'm actually gonna break it off for now, I've been reading through this for so many friggin times... I like where I'm going but my own inconsistencies leads me to having gone back about 4000 words and delete everything after. I'm just gonna call this chapter a close and start making better sense next chapter. Hopefully that's alright with y'all.

If you see any problems with my grammar say something and if anyone cares rate vote and watch.
