General Mcadavis walked over to Tucker, standing far above the mans eye level. "Aye, I know of the creatures.' He said as he looked down at the man like the scawny little worm he was. "But I thought they were all dead..." Snake stood up and looked at the General from the other side of the room, "General, have you... have you seen these creatures before?" He asked. The General didnt even look at Snake, more turning his head slightly, yet not removing his sight from the Private. "10 years ago lad. They- they found my home planet of Sekurion, and destroyed it. Well not really destroyed it, but slaughtered every living creature on it. Cept for me." Snake and Torch were quite dumbfounded by this new learning. The General had a home planet? e always seemed like a robot, working day in, day out, ussually never talking. He had a home? A family? Maybve the man was human too. "They took me abourd thier mothership. And did several horrible experiments on me, I dare not speak of the extent of these experiments,as you would most likely never close your eyes again without the fear of something ripping the flesh off your bones." Snake walked closer to the man, "Is that the reason for your scar?" General Mcdavis touched the slighlty discolored skin on his face, "Aye, that be the cause..."

"This is insane.. First we're attacked by whatever the heck these things are, then the last dude from some blown up planet appears to save our hides. So what are these monsters called Mr. Survivor...?" Tucker asked snidly, very aggravated by the situation, the general, and the wound in his side.

General McDavis slapped the private in the face, "First off, do not call my home some "blown up planet" boy. Second of all, they are called Hellspawn." The general kept his composure during the whole incident, keeping his tone of voice calm. He hoped the slap would send the private back to sanity, if he would just calm down, this would be a lot easier. "Hey Tek!" He said, "Give this man some medical attention!" He said as he walked towards the body of his foe.

Flip, having had been sent running back to his squad by a more-than-scary commanding officer, sat at a lose defensive stance, his gun held ajar as he listened intently to the conversation that was going through the intercom in his helmet. *What exactly did we get into, here?* He silently questioned himself, his eyes staring blanky into the wall across his post as he listened.

Tuck reeled from the slap, blinking a few times. He didn't say a word after that, glaring at the floor. He felt bitter.. and horribly afraid of what was here. the bitterness spawned fro his inability to help as the swarm destroyed every living body on the ship.
Hellspawn? Were these things demons? Or was it some cute nicknam they gave to the most nightmarish things he'd ever come across...?

"I recommend you grow up, we ain't gettin outta here any faster when you whine." The General said, "And where IS the rest of the platoon?!" Fiend eyed the Private still sitting down with a small dose of pity, he knew that this man had to hide when his friends were dying. Poor fool, could'nt of done anything. Tek walked over to Tucker and examined the cut on his side, "heh, little critters gotcha good, gonna have to stitch that one..." He pulled out a needle, and stabbed it into the mans neck, releasing a pain numbing liquid into his bloddstream. He waited a few seconds for the drug to take effect and began to close the wound.

Tucker began breathing normally, the pain in his side fading away as the soldier began stitching up his side. He closed his eyes, trying to keep his mind off what was going on.. and the last three days. The lights were still off, the only form of illumination were the powerful flashlights. Tears flowed freely down his cheeks as the faces of his friends haunted his thoughts. "Let's.. get out of here..." he whimpered.

Delta Squad was havin' their own little fun at the moment, if you could call it that: "Trigger! Protect our rear, we're gonna try to bust through this door!" Sharp pointed at Demo, "give me a hole in this door private!" The mission was shot to hell as soon as they got the garbeled message from squad command, that was over an hour ago! They've been engaging these serpents the whole way to the rally point, Sharp didn't know if these things were some scientific experament gone horribly wrong, or aliens from another galaxy. But what he did know was that these creatures were trying to kill him and his squad and they were between him and his objective.
Luckily, they only had two more doors to go. "Switch, you've got point!" ordered Sharp as soon as the door blew open. Switch sneaked around the corner of the door scanned the immediate viscinity, "clear!" he shouted, "Sir, looks like you wont have to blow through this door, the locking mechanism is disabled." Sharp nodded and walked to the door....

(By the way guys, the powers that be have ordered that we end the swearing, including H-e double hockey sticks)
Fiend picked up the radio transmissions from Delta. "Delta? Do you read? Get here now!" He ordered. He heard small clicking noises coming from the door in front of him. Either it was Delta, or the Hellspawn were comin back for another go.

"Think they found us chief..." tuck said, the clicking noises bringing him out of his saddened state. "We need to get the heck outta dodge," he advised, looking to where he supposed the exit was amongst the darkness. He still sounded dazed, the medicine was still in effect.

"Curses..." They had to wait for the rest of the platoon. The team checked theyre guns, safety's off, fully loaded. General McDavis tossed his rifel to Tucker, he liked his pistol better anyway. "You know how to use one ' dem bad boys?" He asked.

Tucker looked at it, holding it using his left hand. He acted as if it weighed much more than it probably did due to his injury. "Only as much as the drill sergeant pounded into me...Haven't touched one since boot camp." he explained. He ususally used pistols as well, but rifles were always a bonus. "Lemme see.. aim.. pull trigger.. kill.. think i got it."

(sorry, didn't know H E Double hockey sticks was offensive)
Lt. Sharp punched the button to open the door...And froze.... Every gun that he could see was pointing at him! "Didn't know I was the target, or I would of painted a bullseye on my forehead!" Sharp noted that all of the marines were part of his unit, except for one. Who looked pretty banged up. Sharp nodded to the rest of his squad, the sign for all clear. "Delta Squad Reporting as ordered!" Sharp exclaimed, "sorry we didn't get here sooner, but some ugly lookin' snakes were slowin' us down." Sharp guessed from the looks of them that they must of ran into some too, "what are our orders?"....

Fiend ordered his squad to lower there weopons. And let escape a breath, he was holding it unknowlingly for some time. "Bout time!" He said, "We gotta wait here until Beta Squad gets here, then we can explore this are for any more survivors. Snake watched as Tucker squirmed when Fiend said, "search" rather that saying, "get the heck out of here". But it was there mission. General McDavis walked down to Tucker again, "Were gonna be here a while, best get used to it son."

The private muttered a string of curses as he heard that they were staying to investigate. He heftd the battle rifle up, getting the feel for it again, just like riding a bike. "Look.. If we're going in further.. they're more of them on the lower levels.. I think that's where they came from...Don't know how they got down there though." Tuck said helpfully while looking down the scope.
