The princess and the death
Face to gas mask
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSeptember 29th, Manehatten City rooftop.
The mission has changed drastically for Umbrella agent Thorax as it usually did.
He had just spent eight days in the sewer's of Manehatten city, survived the abominable doctor Chaos had turned himself , which had killed the rest of his team, and had fought his way through the infested police department to the rooftop for extraction with the G-Virus sample in tow holstered in the back of his belt.
Now his friend Nighthawk was telling him that somepony high up in Umbrella had scrambled his current extraction plan and that he had to find an alternate form of escape?
Thorax activated his helmet's communication unit again and tucked his combat knife back into one of his pockets.
"Acknowledged Nighthawk how much time do I have unti Mission Code XX commences ?"Thorax asked calmly , his voice slightly muffled by the gas mask.
"Three days at the most Mr Death. I'll have more information soon, it's nothing you can't handle though I'm sure"Nighthawk responded .
"Of course I can you either adapt to the mission or you fail. And I've never failed in the past few mission's in Canterlot. I'll keep you informed of the situation here Nighthawk I will deliver the G-Virus to Umbrella at all cost"Thorax replied to him .
"I'll inform our queen not to worry"Nighthawk told him.
"Affirmative agent Thorax out"He replied turning off the comm channel.
Thorax walked across the roof and looked down over the roof top's railing at the ruined city streets below , the crowds of rotting zombie's shuffled aimlessly in the streets some feeding off of fallen bodies. Most of them were doing nothing , he could hear the echo of moans from all the way up the building.
"I still have a couple of weapons with me and I also have my magic. I better head back down the main hall though, recover any supplies left over for the journey ahead I'll need everything I can get in this infected city"said Thorax to himself as he turned away from the metal railing and paced back across the roof to the door leading inside.
He readied his horn and proceeded to open the door slowly. There was nothing but mangled magic blast's , ridden bodies of zombie's and B.O.W's littering the dark staircase.
"I probably cleared out most of the department on my way up here. I doubt it's empty though."Thorax said to himself quietly .
Thorax then walked down the the staircase more cautiously, he was nearing the balcony overlooking the department's main hall.
As he passed through the stations empty corridor and offices an eerie silence seemed to hang over the body filled hallway , Suddenly the sound of muffled magic blasts sounded off in the distance.
“Another survivor ? Sound's like it's coming from down in the main hall"Thorax thought to himself.
He picked up the pace and hurried down the hallway , as he passed a closed wooden doorway a hoof burst through the door frame and attempted to hatch onto Thoraxes hoof.
Thorax dodged out of the hoof's reach quickly and faced it , he kicked the wooden door opened revealing a mare police officer zombie , the zombie moaned hungrily with outstretched hooves and attempted to bite and grab Thoraxes mask.
In one swift movement Thorax ducked behind the zombie, slammed it head first into the wall opposite the door and he grabbed the zombie by its neck , he then jerked the zombie's neck to the side , in a lightning quick motion, snapping it cleanly , the former officer collapsed to the wooden floor it's head twisted horribly.
Thorax turned back and kept pacing down the hall as if he had not just been interrupted.
Finally, Thorax made it to the metal door leading to the balcony above the main hall. The noises grew even louder though still a bit muffled. The sound of moaning was followed by a door slamming and the patter of hoof across the floor.
Thorax knelt beside the door and quietly opened it. Instantly he dropped to the ground and crawled through the doorway, to the balcony and he looked through the spilt's between the railings.
He watched quietly as a purple mare in a red jacket dragged a heavy desk in front of the door to reinforce it , the zombies outside were wailing and hammering on them but the door's held fast.
Next the mare moved over to a chair and dropped into it crossing her hooves and wiping the sweat off her head.
Thorax watched curiously.
“Who is she ? Does she work here ? I've never seen this mare before in my life she doesn't look like a police officer to me considering her look and jacket or those amateur U.B.C.S soldiers the queen sent are inept at fighting these creature's pathetic”Thorax thought to himself.
The mare stood up suddenly from her seat and moved quickly across the length of the hall past a large statue and towards the main desk closer to the far balcony , Thorax rose slightly to his hooves but remained in a crouching position so that the mare couldn't see him, the walked quietly down the distance of the balcony keeping his eyes carefully focused on her.
The mare took a seat near a desk and grabbed a small medical spray“Huh I'm surprised that captain Shining armour and some of his men managed to steal some of our technologies but some of them failed when they tried to infiltrate our facility”Thorax thought to himself.
The mare tried to look for an exit near her but she couldn't find any exit, after a few moments she seemed to give up and stare at the floor.
As Thorax approached closer from the balcony above her the wooden floor that he was standing on squeaked slightly under his hoof.
When Thorax heard the squeaking noise under him he instantly put one hoof on the railing and jumped up and over it to the ground below so that the mare couldn't see him.
He landed with a thud of his dark gray boots hitting the solid floor , he activated his horn and aimed it at her as she spun around activating her horn and aimed it at him as well.
Being up closer now Thorax was able to have a better look at the mare , her face was purple , she had a purple horn , purple eye's , she had purple wings , purple hooves , her cutie mark was a symbol of a sparkle and she was wearing a red jacket.
Thorax assumed the pony to be an alicorn considering the wings and the unicorn horn she was a fairly young mare.
“She's almost as tall as me kind of attractive yet tough looking not that it means anything in this situation.”Thorax thought to himself.
The mare aimed her horn directly at Thorax and studied his gas mask uncertainly.
"Who are you ?" The mare demanded.
