Human : Chapter 6

The transport arrived back in Scotland as it flew towards the Resistance base the transport flew into the hangar and landed the back door of the transport opened and I stepped off of the transport the back door of the transport then closed as I made my way towards the command room where Nitro was waiting for me "Good you're back, nice work taking out that weapons factory I've got your next mission ready for ya." Nitro said "Lay it on me." I said "We've intercepted a Federation transmission that talked about a warehouse in Lausanne in Switzerland apparently the Federation has some stuff there that's being stored for safe keeping, I want you to go there and liberate some of their inventory." Nitro said "You got it." I said as I turned around to walk towards the transport but just then Nitro stopped me "Not so fast Josh, you'll be getting some backup on this one." Nitro said as he turned away from me "Skitter come here!" Nitro yelled, just then I could see Skitter approach us "Yeah?" Skitter said "Skitter I want you to support Josh on his mission, I want the two of you to keep this quiet so use that device of yours." Nitro said "Alright." Skitter said, I wasn't against the idea of getting help I just hope Skitter doesn't get in the way or slow me down "Come on Josh, let's kick some ass." Skitter said "Good luck you two." Nitro said "Yeah." I replied before turning around and making my way towards the transport with Skitter following me, I made my way to the crate full of ammunition and refilled my ammo before me and Skitter arrived at the transport the back door of the transport opened and we stepped aboard "Take us to Lausanne in Switzerland." I said "Sure thing." the pilot said, the back door of the transport then closed before the transport took off and soared out of the hangar as it made it's way towards Switzerland.

The transport arrived in Switzerland as it landed just outside of Lausanne the back door of the transport opened and me and Skitter stepped off of the transport the back door of the transport then closed before I looked around and could see that it was now nighttime I then activated my communicator "Nitro this is Josh, we've landed and we're ready to get started." I said "Alright the warehouse should be somewhere in the city find it and clean it out, Skitter has some fancy device so he'll make good use of that during this mission." Nitro said "Alright if you say so I'll contact you when we're done." I said as I deactivated my communicator, I turned towards Skitter and began to speak "You ready?" I asked "You bet I am." Skitter replied "Alright let's go." I said as we began moving through the city.

Me and Skitter moved through the city as quickly and as quietly as possible there were Federation patrols all over the place we moved through the alleys in order to reach the warehouse unnoticed eventually we found the warehouse it was a large and it was crawling with Federation soldiers "Alright so what's the plan?" I said as I looked at the warehouse, just then I heard a strange sound come from behind me I turned around to see what it was and noticed that Skitter was nowhere to be found "Skitter?" I said darting my head around to try and find him but he was simply gone "Skitter?" I said again but to no response he was just gone "Shit where the fuck did he go?" I said before turning back towards the warehouse "Damn it." I said as I took a deep breath and began moving towards the warehouse, I moved out into the open and as I got closer to the warehouse an Angel suddenly appeared the Angel had gold eyes and a halo on it's head it had what looked like large whips on it's arms the Angel swung one of it's whips towards me I barely dodged it's attack before I ran up to the Angel the Angel attempted to strike me with it's whips but I managed to dodge them I ran up to the Angel I then extended my blade and drove it into the Angel's chest the Angel then collapsed to the ground before disappearing I then looked at my blade "Wow." I said before I retracted my blade, I then looked ahead and could see that the entire warehouse was heavily guarded by soldiers "There's no way I'm getting in there without someone seeing me." I thought, I looked around to try and find another way into the warehouse that's when I saw a large drainpipe at the bottom of some stairs I walked down the stairs and could see that the drainpipe lead towards the warehouse "Well alright then." I said as I entered the drainpipe and continued moving, I ran through the drainpipe until I reached an area that was flooded I looked around and couldn't see any other way to go "I hope this suit is airtight." I said as I jumped into the water and I sunk to the bottom, I looked around before I realized that there was no water getting into my suit and I could still breath I then noticed a oxygen meter appear on my helmet's visor "Oh cool." I said as I slowly made my way through the flooded area, I moved through the flooded area as my oxygen meter slowly depleted I noticed that I moved much slower while I was underwater but I soon found a ladder leading up out of the water I climbed the ladder until I was out of the water I then noticed the oxygen meter on my helmet's visor quickly refill before it disappeared just then I looked ahead and saw a Hybrid rushing towards me the Hybrid had a somewhat Human looking body but it's hands and feet were larger and it had sharp claws on it's hands and feet but the most appalling part of the Hybrid was it's head or rather it's lack of a head as instead of a head of any kind it just had a massive mouth that split all the way down to it's torso the mouth was lined with rows of large sharp teeth the Hybrid lunged at me with it's mouth open I dodged it's attack as the Hybrid slammed into the wall I then extended my blade and plunged it into the Hybrid's back before pulling it straight up slicing the Hybrid's back up the Hybrid writhed in pain before collapsing to the floor dead "Fucking shit." I said as I retracted my blade and continued moving through the drainpipe but just then I looked ahead and could see Brian standing in front of me staring at me just then he rushed towards me and attacked me, I evaded his attack as I ran through the drainpipe before looking back only to see that my Dad was now gone, I took a deep breath and continued to move through the drainpipe.

I moved through the drainpipe and as I was moving a Demon suddenly appeared the Demon had red eyes and horns on it's head the Demon was tall and thin it had long narrow arms and legs and it had large hands I quickly ran up to the Demon as it attempted to hit me but I evaded it's attack and extended my blade I then plunged my blade into the Demon's head the Demon roared in agony before it disappeared I then retracted my blade and continued moving through the drainpipe, I kept moving through the drainpipe until I eventually arrived at a ladder there was writing on the wall next to the ladder "Warehouse access." the writing said, I looked up and could see what looked like a large cap at the top of the ladder just then I heard a voice coming from somewhere inside the drainpipe "Took you long enough." the voice said, I immediately recognized the voice it was Skitter I looked around but couldn't see him "Skitter?" I said "Over here." Skitter said, I turned towards where his voice was coming from but I didn't see him but I did see a table that looked out of place but I didn't question it "Over where?" I said, just then I heard a sound the same sound I heard when I noticed that Skitter was gone back up on the street I then watched as the suspicious table transformed into Skitter "Surprise!" Skitter said, I just stood there in awe at what I had just witnessed "What the fuck was that?" I asked "You like it that's my Disguise Device it allows me to transform into any object I want, I can use it to transform into an object to hide in plain sight or I can use it to transform into a small object to squeeze through narrow passages." Skitter said "Where did you get it?" I asked "Uhh, I found it." Skitter said, I raised an eyebrow after hearing Skitter's answer but I decided not to question it "Wow that's impressive." I said "I knew you'd like it." Skitter said "So how did you get down here?" I asked "I found an entrance to this drainpipe and I made it here with no troubles, how did you get here?" Skitter asked "I found a different entrance into this drainpipe had to get through a flooded area to get here." I replied "Cool so that suit of yours is airtight." Skitter said "Yeah this suit is pretty awesome." I said as we approached the ladder, we looked up towards the large cap at the top I climbed up first and once I was at the top I attempted to open the cap but to no avail it was sealed I then extended my blade and used it to create a small gap in-between the cap and the ground I inched my blade into the small gap I had created before moving my blade across the rim of the cap I could hear the sound of my blade cutting something metal and with that I attempted to open the cap again and sure enough the cap opened, I climbed out of the drainpipe and Skitter followed I looked around and could see that we were in a small maintenance room I then turned towards Skitter and began to speak "Okay here's the plan you'll go into the warehouse and snag everything of value that you can find and bring it back here, I'll drop it down into the drain pipe and once were done we just carry it all out the same way we came in." I said "Sounds good." Skitter said "Use your Disguise Device to hide if you run into any soldiers." I said "You don't have to tell me that." Skitter said and with that he moved past me before opening the door to the maintenance room and walking through it.

I sat on the floor and waited patiently for Skitter to return "This should be easy enough I just have to sit here and wait for Skitter to return with the loot." I thought, before long the door to the maintenance room opened I raised my assault rifle thinking it could be a Federation soldier but it was Skitter he stepped through the door with a box in his hands he dropped the box in front of me before speaking "One down." Skitter said "Great go get another one." I said as I lowered my gun, Skitter then turned around and walked out of the room I opened the box and looked inside and could see several weapons inside the box "Weapons nice." I said as I dropped the box down into the drainpipe I then returned to sitting there and waiting for Skitter to return, I sat quietly in the maintenance room as Skitter periodically came into the room and dropped off boxes of loot I looked inside each of the boxes to see what they contained some boxes had weapons others had supplies but some boxes were filled with money that the Federation most likely didn't get legitimately and there were a few boxes that contained valuable items that the Federation definitely stole I dropped each box into the drainpipe and watched as they landed at the bottom of the drainpipe "I could see myself doing this kind of thing for a living." I thought as I returned to waiting, I waited for Skitter to return but just then I heard a voice coming from the other side of the door "Why the fuck do I have to take inventory." the voice said, I stood up and slowly approached the door I opened the door ever so slightly and could see a Federation soldier standing just outside the maintenance room with his back to me I looked around and noticed a computer that looked out of place "That must be Skitter, he'll never get past this soldier unnoticed." I thought, I then slowly exited the room and carefully approached the soldier before covering his mouth with my hand I then extended my blade and drove it through the soldier's chest blood spewed out of his chest before I quickly dragged him into the maintenance room I dropped the soldier's dead body on the floor as Skitter entered the room with a box in his hand "Thanks that was close." Skitter said "You're welcome." I said as Skitter dropped the box on the floor, I peeked outside of the maintenance room to make sure that nobody saw us and that's when I noticed a large crate full of explosives near the door to the maintenance room just then I saw several Ghosts standing outside of the maintenance room just then they rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly closed the door and took a deep breath I then opened the door again and could see that the Ghosts were no longer there I then walked towards Skitter and looked inside the box that he had brought I could see more weapons inside the box I then dropped the box down into the drainpipe as Skitter left the maintenance room and I returned to waiting.

I waited for quite awhile but Skitter hadn't returned "He's probably cleaning out the deeper parts of the warehouse." I thought, eventually Skitter returned with a box in his hands "Alright I think that's the last one." Skitter said "You got it all?" I asked "I hope so." Skitter said "Alright drop that box down into the drainpipe then get down there and let's start hauling this stuff out." I said "Will do." Skitter said as he dropped the box down into the drainpipe before climbing down the ladder I was just about to climb down the ladder when I heard footsteps approaching the maintenance room I looked towards the door and saw a soldier walk into the maintenance room "Why is there all this blood here?" the soldier said before he saw me "Oh shit!" the soldier yelled, I immediately lunged at the soldier extending my blade before driving it into his chest but as I did so the soldier managed to squeeze the trigger of his gun and I heard the sound of gunfire echo around the area "Fuck!" I said as I knew there was no way those gunshots went unnoticed and sure enough an alarm began to ring "What's happening up there!" Skitter shouted "We're in trouble, we gotta go now!" I yelled, I was about to climb down the ladder but then I got an idea I pulled out a grenade and pulled the pin on it before I tossed the grenade through the door I watched as the grenade rolled along the ground before stopping next to the crate full of explosives I then quickly climbed down the ladder once I reached the bottom of the ladder I could see that Skitter was carrying most of the boxes that he had grabbed I grabbed the remaining boxes before looking at Skitter "Let's get outta here!" I said "Follow me!" Skitter said as we began running through the drainpipe, we ran through the drainpipe moving towards the part of the drainpipe that I had entered through but before we reached it Skitter shouted at me "Josh this way!" Skitter said, I looked at him and saw him pointing down a different direction than the one I used to get in "Are you sure?" I asked "I came in through this way." Skitter said "Okay lead on." I said as I followed Skitter through the drainpipe, we continued running through the drainpipe until we reached an opening similar to the one I found we exited the drainpipe and ran up a set of stairs until we were back on the street we then began to run through the city back towards the transport.

Me and Skitter ran towards the transport and as we were running I heard a loud explosion I looked towards where the sound came from and I could see that the warehouse was now destroyed "Looks like my grenade exploded." I thought, me and Skitter soon reached the transport and as the back door of the transport opened I boarded the transport and dropped my boxes inside I then looked towards Skitter and noticed that he dropped one of his boxes he then turned around to try and go back for it "Skitter we have to go now!" I yelled "Just a second!" Skitter shouted but just then a large group of soldiers emerged and began firing at us, Skitter ducked down to avoid the bullets I jumped out of the transport but just then I looked back and could see Linda standing there staring at me just then she rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly ran away from her as I moved towards Skitter I raised my assault rifle and managed to take out a few of the soldiers before I reached Skitter I helped him up off the ground and began escorting him to the transport "But the loot!" Skitter said "Leave it!" I said as bullets struck my armour, we ran towards the transport and once we reached the it me and Skitter entered the transport I then yelled at the pilot "Get us back to the Resistance base now!" I shouted as the back door of the transport closed and the transport ascended into the air before flying away from the city I then looked at Skitter to make sure he wasn't injured "Are you okay?" I asked "Yeah I'm okay." Skitter replied, I then activated my communicator "Nitro it's Josh, we're on our way back to the Resistance base we have the loot... well most of it anyway." I said "Alright good job you two, I'll see you when you get back." Nitro said, I deactivated my communicator before sitting down and taking a deep breath Skitter then stood up and looked at me "Thanks for coming back for me Josh" he said "No problem Skitter." I said, a warm smile grew on my face as the transport flew across the sky and made it's way towards Scotland.
