Chapter 3
The Spy That Was
(Everyone managed to get to the third floor of the building when the tidal waves came and soaked the base. The first and second floor were flooded in and with the electrical outputs, getting out won't be easy without being fried.)
Shadow: Shit...now how are we going to get out?
Zephyr: We can't...not until the water disperses.
Blaze: Answer me this, how the hell is a flood here in the middle of the mainland!?
Zephyr: ............You two aren't gonna like this...
Shadow: ......What happened?
Scientist: Another mega nuke occurred...but not just one...three.
Blaze: T-three!?
Zephyr: Yes, Antarctica is gone......and South America.
Shadow: South America!?
Blaze: What!?
Zephyr: Yes...we'll talk in my quarters.
Agent: Wait, if those two continents are gone, how is there a flood?
Scientist: One of the mega nukes exploded in the Pacific Ocean. With a blast that powerful underwater like that, it's bound to create a tsunami that can reach farther reaches from the ocean.
...............
Drake: How long will it be until the place unfloods?
Scientist: From my calculations...three days.
Shadow: Damn...while we wait for the place to unflood, our most wanted insane psycho megalomaniac nuker is out there ending humanity.
Drake: Don't worry, I just got word from the agency in Canada. He's been spotted near Greenland and they're off to capture him.
Shadow: .........
Later
Zephyr: ...You both getting the feeling what I've got?
Shadow: Yes...no one was aware that we were going to go to South America or Canada...Only we knew.
Zephyr: And we are aware of the situation...
Blaze: That Sheridan in Greenland could be a fake...The people in Canada are probably dead already and they are broadcasting a false message to Drake...he could actually be here!
............
Shadow: Damn it...This could have been his plan...throw us off with more clones...and trap us...and then kill us.
Zephyr: Yes...this means, we have a spy to look for.
Shadow: A spy...
Blaze: how are we going to tell who is the spy?
Zephyr: That's the problem.
Blaze: Well, we have three days till the water lowers. We can use this as an advantage and find him!
Shadow: Right...but we can't do this together. If everyone is questioned by all three of us at the same time, then suspicion will arise and they might think we are to blame.
Zephyr: Right...then there's Drake.
Blaze: We ignore him for now. We need to cover the rest of the place first...then we interrogate Drake. I got this floor and the fifth floor.
Zephyr: Then I got the sixth floor and the roof.
Shadow: Then I have the labs and the third floor.
Third Floor
(Shadow made his way through the third floor, pulling small groups of agents into the conversation...but with no luck each were confident that the Canadians were able to find Sheridan...all but one of the scientists.)
Shadow: So, how do you think this will turn out?
Scientist: Not so well...these people are fooled...they think they are fine, yet they are hiding from the truth. My hometown is infected with the disease and yet I am find ways to help find a cure, also...I've been tracking the whereabouts of Sheridan myself...and I've come so close to...
Shadow: ...Are you from here?
Bernard: Right, we've never met in person. I came here last year during the assault in Montana. The name's Bernard.
Shadow: Nice to meet someone who understands the situation. Now what actually brought you here?
Bernard: I wanted to give chase to Sheridan myself. His constant border jumping has gotten out of hand, and that he's killed my wife.
Shadow: .........
Bernard: Are there more who are helping you?
Shadow: yes, they're on the floors above right now. Will you help me look around the lab?
Bernard: I was just heading there myself...the device I have that can help us is hidden there...we'll sneak it out so we can track him down.
Shadow: Right...
Fifth Floor
Blaze: .........
(Blaze was looking around every corridor but found nobody.)
Blaze: What gives? I only talked with three people on the last floor...this level's abandoned.
...............
(Blaze then looks around as he heard footsteps.)
Blaze: ......Shadow.........Zephyr?
............
Blaze: ......Something isn't right here......
Rooftop
Zephyr: ...Did any of you see anyone else on the two floors below?
Agent: no.
Sniper: I'm pretty sure this place is soon to be abandoned.
Zephyr: Why's that?
Sniper: Heh, some of the agents here think that if this is the end, they're gonna do what they've always wanted to do. So they hightailed it a few hours ago.
Agent: If only they knew about the incoming typhoon. They're probably dead now.
Zephyr: ......Anything else to add? Like say, some suspicious people acting around?
Sniper: Says much yourself mate, you've been acting strange yourself.
Zephyr: What do you mean?
Agent: What she's trying to say is that you've been acting more...sane Zephyr. You're not acting as crazy as before...is something up?
Zephyr: Hey, I can worry at times to you know. And this situation over the mega nukes is serious. If you think that this won't matter that much then blow it out of your own asses!
............
(Everyone just stared at Zephyr thinking that he's actually snapped a bit.)
Agent: Zephyr, we didn't mean it like that...
Zephyr: I don't give a damn! Everyone here thinks it's not gonna matter much because the enemy has won! Well you're all wrong! Sheridan can be stopped! We just need to find him! But if you are going to just do......this! Then you can go to hell!
(Zephyr then runs off down the stairs.)
Agent: ......I know Zephyr's crazy...but I've never seen him like that...
Sniper: I know...
Labs
(Bernard and Shadow were in the lab and were asking a few of the researchers there about the situation...but got the same answer.)
Bernard: Worthless...all they care about is how the nukes are being sent out like this instead of figuring out how to reverse the disease.
Shadow: ......
Zephyr: Ungrateful maggots...
Shadow: Zephyr?
(Zephyr had walked in looking pissed off, Shadow stops him to ask what happened...of course Zephyr started screaming.)
Zephyr: This wimpy assholes are just pathetic, oh boo-hoo the world is ending, there's nothing we can do...why can't these dumbass pansies just see that there is a way instead of waste around like the worthless bums they are!
(Some of the researchers angrily glare at Zephyr.)
Zephyr: yeah you heard me! Go fuck yourselves if you want! All you're caring is something you can't figure out! Why don't you figure out what the disease is before it kills us all!
Researcher: You don't have to be such a jackass!
Scientist: We are doing the best we can! And besides, the disease is coming from the nukes after they explode!
Zephyr: And how long has it been? Usually by now you alleged geniuses would have figured it out by now!
Researcher: Alright, that's it! You've had this coming a long time you son of a bitch!
(One of the researchers then attacked Zephyr. Each managed to land a few blows on each other before Shadow and Bernard separate the two.)
Shadow: Knock it off!
Bernard: We won't get any progress done if you two bludgeon each other to death!
............
(Soon Blaze came running in all worried...and covered in blood.)
Shadow: Blaze!
Zephyr: What happened!?
Blaze: ...I-I managed......to escape...
Bernard: What...from who!?
Shadow: He's here...isn't he?
Blaze: No...Drake! The fifth floor was abandoned! When I was about to go find you guys...he jumped at me and tried to kill me!
Zephyr: ...I was right?
Blaze: yes...Drake...he's nothing but a traitor! He's been misleading us all!
