The Problem

When you wake up on a day,
about you happen to know, it is Wednesday and everything around reminds you on
Sunday, you start to contemplate that something is not completely alright. I
have felt it that way ever since the moment I woke up. Everything seemed to lead
against me and the fact that I am wrong – not the others, even though I couldn´t
understand how it can be. Thawned in doubts, forthcoming things I awaited.
Finally, I got bit of an objectiv evidence – somewhere in the span, clock
clanged eight o´clock, at least I thought it was eight times the iron hit the
bell .. Another clock clanged eight times as well. By this time, I knew, that
something very important must have happend. The fact the I missed the end of
the world – well, the end of the world which I have known for the period of 22
years – it was a pure coincidence, like almost every fortunate escape or
retreat, call it however you want. As it is, many people are lying in hospital
due their physical sometimes psychical wounds and as a matter of luck and
fortuity, I am one of them. It could have happened one week earlier and I
wouldn´t write these lines, I wouldn´t be here, nowhere near this location. I
belive that Lady Fate wanted me to be here, now at this time, in this place –
but with bandaged head? Nevertheless, this morning I have been very anxious and
confused about the whole situation, because I knew that at 7:03 AM a beautiful
nurse should walk in my sterile white room with my soo delicious hospital food,
yet she was not present. Doctors belive that my injury is quite serious and that
I shouldn´t walk nor stay away from the bed. They ordered me to not move
[despite my objections] and leave everything to my personal care-taker, the
sweet and luscious nurse. She even took care of my hygiene, which was very
confortable for a young woman like me. The only thing I needed to is to keep my
hormones calmed down. The absence of her soft teen-like hand was quite unnatural
and it was always an omen of my breakfast. This day has been very strange so
far and it has only started. I do not wish to know what Destiny has got planed
for me for this day. I have gone through hell and I am only 22, how
equitable is it? It all started when I was a member of an elite squad, „Sébium“
they called us, in Kusanagi town – world´s biggest scientific and spec ops
center. Scientists from all over the world had gathered in this town to support
the infamous ,,Bahamut Project“. Four years ago, a young pair of travelers found
a huge sleeping creature in an underground cavern in the southern border of Dash
Desert, few miles away from the Kusanagi town. They reported it immediately to
the main research building located in the very middle of the town, surounded by
green gardens varnished with white roses and a big square, which was mainly used
for relaxation and as a escape destination when you needed some rest from the
hard work. In a matter of hours, the whole area around the cave district was
full of white runing-around-coats and green marshing groups of soldiers. I
do not know exactly how they woke the creature up, but I do know that it wasnt
hostile, at all. Army withdrawed back to the city, but always ready to strike.
The dragon alike being, Bahamut allowed them to observe it, it even allowed them
to take few samples for laboratory experiments. For my liking, it was too
friendly. ,,Creature like that, could take out the whole city within a few
minutes“, I told myself back then. I trusted no one and definetly not that
overgrown lizard, Bahamut. One day, a small group of generals, [I dont who
they were, maybe poeple from NSA, Navy, NASA .. I honestly dont know and I
belive they didnt want anyone else to know it either. ] and highly respected
scientists along with few doctors went to the cavern area and thats when it all
started. I remember exactly what I was doing when the red ligh alarm started to
distract my attention. I was lying on my standart army type bed with a blue
sheet over the mattress. You didnt need anything else, since the temperature was
controled by the main computer, so basicly, you could sleep naked and you
wouldnt be cold for the whole night. Sometimes, it pays to be a member of an
elite group. I was reading my newest book I bought that day in the local market,
I dont recall the name of the book, but Im pretty sure it was about a forbidden
relation between a young girl and a guy who had somekind of a problem, probably
handicap .. I do remember a little from the book, but if you would read a part
of it, I would recognize it.. I took my time, I didnt hurry. I slowly got up
on my feet, put on standart army boots, specialy designed for our team with some
fancy add-ons, like thermoregulation and sharp sides for possible face to face
combat. We are skilled for any combat, either it is face to face, shooting,
sniping .. we also have to know Aikido, Teakwondo and any other additional
martial art fighting technique. We don´t learn those styles for self defense,
but for slaughtering. We dont take hostages. Our team is something like a
,,Annihilation Squad“ .. I wonder who pays our actions. Then I put on my 5th
Generation cevlar body armour stuffed with extra light adamant polycarbon
fibers. The weight of the whole suit is around 5 kg, which is very confortable
in action. All set up for the briefing followed by departure I grabed on my
,,oldie“ 9mm H&K, than my father gave me as a present or a reward for making
it into this group. It is still in perfect shape, with a laser and a silencer.
Even though it looks very oddly compared to my hyper velocity pulse rifle, I
like every inch of it. Call it nostalgy, but I has never failed in action,
100/100 is my score with this ,,Death Messanger”. I walked out of my
temporary room to a long vestibule, which led to every location in this town. It
was something like this plactic tubes, they use for delivering post, lettlers or
any important documents. I took the first turn left and walked along the gangway
approximately for 5 minutes. Finally, I arrived to the ops center where the
briefing has already started. Our mission was simple, maybe too simple for a
group like us - we were supposed to transport the generals and any other people
who would be with them, back to the city in the shortest possible time period.
Leader of the team asked the general:,,Why are you sending my men there?
This is an oridinary transport, isnt it? So, why would you need us?” General
remained silent and walked out of the room .. After this quite strange
apperance from the general´s side, we managed to get into the transport ship and
leave the city within 2 minutes. We had no intentions on giving this mission
more time that it needed .. such a piffle paffle mission. Since this mission
isn´t as important and serious as the rest of the ,,quests” we had before, the
leader, Zero, picked three guys and one girl for this. There was Kyo, Iori, K´
and a beatiful new teammate, Seraph. She was very attractive, even in the body
armour .. As Iori was ready to ask her a question, the pilot calmly said ,, I
see smoke, lots of smoke” in the mouthpiece, as it would be nothing. We
immediately jumped up and went to the cockpit, to look at whats happening down
there. ,,There, down there!” said Kyo I looked the way he pointed and
saw a dead, torn body of a human, probably doctor, due his blue clothes.
,,Take us down!” Iori ordered.
The Enemy
We landed on the highest
place that was available at the moment within one mile rage around the cavern.
This way, we could cover and see the area around the cave with an ease. Iori is
an excellent sniper so, if we engaged an enemy, he would wipe them out in a few
moments. They wouldn’t even notice that someone is firing at them. Once, he
killed ten people who were chasing us in five seconds. The last terrorist was
dead before the first victim touched the ground - he was still falling. He has
always been the ,,Eye upon Us”, our guardian .. Kyo, K´ and I went to look
at the dead body, we saw from the air. We needed to know what happened to him ..
either he was shot or attacked by some wild animal. If he would be shot, then we
would shoot at everything that moves, unless the target would identify
his/herself with a special electronic card. We were in a restricted area,
bacause of the ,,Bahamut Project” and every single person who went to this site,
needed this kind of a card. With us around, it was the only thing that could let
you live another few days. As I said, we went to see the doctor and as we
arrived, we couldn’t belive our eyes. The whole skeleton was broken into
thousand pieces and the meat and skin was chewed like the food they give to old
people, so they can actually eat it. ,,WRROOOAWW!” ,,Whats that?!”, Kyo
asked with noticable anxiety in his voice. ,,How the heck am I suppopse to
know that?!”, I replied. ,, We should see whats going on .. “, valiantly I
said and started to walk towards the cave entrance.
To be continued ..

Grievous Seraph - 04 Sep 2003 04:55 pm Post subject:
As I said in the end, this is my first fiction from
three years ago and I didn´t really bother with the spelling.
I know, I could have
corrected it, but ... *stretches arms* lazy ... I have more and better
fictions I´d like to post.
Oh, by the way, English is my third language
so, have mercy with me.
End of Topic.
