As the agents enter the complex, the first thing to notice is that the whole complex is only lit by red emergency lights, some places are not even lit by those, as some of the lights are broken. The labs own mini server is still running though, otherwise you wouldn't feel a bubble surrounding you, as the lab is just outside the Fairhaven one.
With a swish of a golden tail and clack of talon on stone, Segruo a large 12 foot solar dragon descends down the stairs of one of Zephier's remote satellite labs, called in the dead of night, the herm dragon is somewhat hastily dressed, clad in a dark black heavy combat armor, Seguro's belt is dotted with bio medical devices and a small stun baton for protection.
Quickly following the dragon, but perhaps less visibly prepared, Redd follows down the staircase, muttering something about everything being built underground and the lack of windows.
Following behind the yote is another yote, this one looking even less prepared with a clunky pair of goggles on his head and a gun slung over his back.
Lochlan appears on the scene from above, gliding on his wings to a nearby tree, where he immediately crouches to observe what the hell is happening in this bubble. "All the red lights...Ho ho ho... Merry Christmas!" He chuckles to his own joke, before fixing the small backpack on his back (doing that, when you have wings is a major pain in the ass) and jumping on the ground.
Lochlan enters the complex, trying to be prepared for whatever shit happened, although he is mostly expecting ordinarry stuff like everybody's favourite skunkbeasts. Clad in a run-of-the-mill zephyr combat armour, with the addition of thick insulated gloves, just in case, he strolls down the stairs, cracking a joke to himself about the christmas spirit of the emergency lights.
Suddenly a sound like some giant bug crawling over metal sounds from one of the air vents, but it sounds as if it'S moving away from the agents, deeper into the complex.
Seguro jumps at the sound of skittering legs, as scaled hand reaches for hir stun baton for protection, hir sun hued eyes scan the darkened room looking for an enemy, sighing that there is none to be found. Soon the dragon's attention turns to trying to find a fuse box and if she was lucky shi might be able to store main power. The dragon hisses to other agents. "Look I am going to try and get the lights back on, if there is something down here, then we are at a disadvantage in the dark." Without a further word the solar moves careful forward looking for a fuse box or a generator .
Looking through the room, Seguro finds a fuse box, but it is destroyed by what looks like were claws.
As Redd passes by Seguro, he sees the fusebox mostly destroyed, "That could be an issue, but nothing that can't be fixed. Give me a moment." The coyote fiddles with the wires, reconnecting the fuses before replacing the damaged cover onto the box. "Hit the switch, if you've found it yet."
With the fuse box repaired, the lights turn back on, casting the comples in bright white light. Now it's easy to see, that on some of the walls near the broken, or better destroyed, emergency lights are full ow claw marks.
Markus is a bit scared... and handicapped as his light-magnification goggles are suddently overloaded. He pulls them off, rubbing his eyes before recovering. "Well... whatever it is... it certainly isnt friendly." He says, unshouldering his rifle after stowing his gear.
Lochlan approaches one of the deeper clawmarks and kneels to get a better view of them, comparing what he sees with his notes from previous experiences and whatever info he had managed to get from Zephyr one way or another. Not really liking what he sees, he goes to another destroyed light, repeating the procedure, then turns to the others. "Guys, you know what Alien is? Riiiiight?"
The light shuts off again, leaving once more only the emergency lights, as the fuse blows. From somewhere deeper inside the lab complex the sound of some equipment crashing to the ground, accompanied by a screeching, pained cry.
Seguro sighs deeply as the room once again grown , the dragon's scales casting a faint light about the room. Seguro readies a mutant power lion within, soon a thick shield of ablative nanites envelope the other agents warding them from harm. Taking a small flash light from hir belt the dragon moves to head deeper into the compound toward the pained voice, stun baton in hand.
Lights or not, coyotes have more than vision to rely on. "Well damn, I guess something's shorted out. Let's just find who's left, and get back out. I think this place is ready for condemnation anyhow." Redd's ears swivel towards the noise. "Guess that's our researchers."
Markus manages to re-don his goggles before the light finishes going out, the pale green glow from the three lenses somewhat eerie to those who looked upon him. "Aliens, huh? Never encountered those before.... wonder how they handle bullets..." he says, sweeping his rifle between the various directions they could possibly come in.
Lochlan grumbles as the light goes back off and pulls a headlamp of his own, quickly strapping it on his forehead. "They have plated hide, so don't count too much on body shots. Go for the head!"
With the complex back in red emergency lights, the agents can hear something moving from further into the lab.
"Have fun with that, I'm gonna go see if I can't get more fuses, or a generator down here." As Redd moves towards the exit, he stops a moment, "Do avoid the breast milk, I hear it's acidic."
Seguro searches a head, having moved further down the hall, hir flashlight looking from room to room, the dragon speaks over an open com channel "Hello we hear to help, If you injured we have medical supplies." with a regal hiss.
Markus follows sort of close behind, quite nervous.
Seguro
Lochlan follows Seguro, frequently turning his head behind him to make sure noone is going to surprise them from behind. "Those pipe skittering guys... remind me how big are the pipes here. May be this thing is from the smaller ones..."
looking through the rooms the agents find a lot of destroyed labs and lab equipment. But in one of them a destroyed caged can be seen, it's bars torn outwards. In another romm though a fox in a labcoat is sitting, clutching his arm, blood running from it, the form of an alien hovering over him, another alien lying on the floor close by, a hole in it's head.
Seguro wrinkles hir nose, hisses back to the small elf. "Reminds me of what I say in a movie once, I think they implanted eggs in people, the young then burst out of the host chest, but that was a movie." The dragon was about to say something more when hir glowing sun hued eyes catch view of the black exoskeleton clad creatures . Pointing a claw at the alien the dragon lets off a quick stunning mutant power, solar ray. In a blink of an eye a brite bolt of light hurtles toward the foxes attacker, Sugro hisses. "Magic Missile."
As the alien screams in pain due to the hit, the researcher quickly turns his head in the direction of the agents, exlaiming "NO, STOP!"
Seguro blinks in surprise at the presumed feral speaks as as shi checks for a com transponder on the alien form, the dragon hisses. "Who are you and what happed to the fox?"
