Chapter 4 Weakness Found

Taylor lead his squad back to the lab his mind now focused on what his wife had become and he didn't like it at all. Not only did he find out that his wife was alive but now he was the one that had to kill her just to end her suffering, "This is all bullshit!" He thought as they reached the lab and Taylor stands to the right of the door as Simon stands to the left. Taylor motions for Simon to open and quickly moves in followed by Hall then comes Hunt then Jones. Simon picked up the rear making sure they weren't followed.

Little did the group know that in the tree line was the target watching all this happen and she wasn't happy about it. The last place the monster wanted to go was back into that lab and in her left hand held Tim's body.. Well what was left of it she had ripped his body apart and enjoyed getting her revenge now she just needed to leave this island and she would be ready to conquer the country that did this to her. She had tried to catch up to the other team but sadly she had realized the split up to late and they got away. She growls watching as these soldiers went in to look for a way to kill her obviously. She narrows her eyes and swiftly ran towards the building ready to end the lives of these humans and anyone else that threatens her.

As Taylor and moves in he motions for 3 of his squad members to move into the lab and the rest are to secure the outside with him. Hunt, Simons, and Rogers went inside the lab and the rest got ready to blast anything that came down that hallway.

Simons was looking threw some files as Hunt was looking threw Dr. Rogers computer seeing if he noticed anything that would harm the beast. It was after flipping through pages of reports she noticed a article. "The beast seemed nearly immortal with the acception of one element that my numbskull assistant dumped next to the beasts cage. She seemed to fear Mercury so I tried an experiment by dabbing a knife in it and cut the beast and the wound didn't heal right away... I'm not sure what causes this I shall run further tests but for now it seems Mercury is the creatures only weakness.... Just to be safe I shall put some syringes full of Mercury in a safe in my office."

Hunt smiles widely, "I found it! The Doctor here records Mercury hurts the beast and he has Syringes full of it in his safe.... So lets go!" The three step out to rejoin the squad just in time for everyone to see the monster appear at the doorway and they quickly kneel down and everyone opens fire as they move back looking for Dr. Rogers office.

Once they reach the office the beast rushes the squad and Taylor shoves Hunt into the office and closes the door quickly. Just before he could say anything the squad was blasted back by the shoulder of the monster sending everyone flying as Hunt rushes to the safe seeing that she needed a key she looked around for it.

Taylor gets up and draws his pistol quickly but before he could shoot the beast smashes his hand down to the ground and swats him threw a window into another lab towards the back of the building. Halls gets up and unloads his gun into the beast but all that did was make her mad and he was lifted up by the neck like he weighed nothing. She roars right at his face but was interrupted by him stabbing her arm with a knife causing her to throw him threw a wall in anger. Jones and Simons both unload clips into the monsters stomach causing her some pain but also angered her even further and she thrusts both her arms forward sending the two sliding down the hallway and into the wall. Taylor climbs out of the lap spitting blood to the ground and glared at her, "Jessica I'm sorry." He held a grenade in his hand and pulls the pin holding it tightly as he ran at her and as she roars at him charging head on Taylor sliding under her and drops the grenade and shouts, "DUCK NOW!" As he rolls into the lab to his left he kicks the door closed just before the explosion hit.

As Taylor slowly gets to his feet coughing he opens the door and looks around, "Sound..." Was cut off by a claw slashing down his chest and then gets smacked into a wall knocking him out cold. The monster walks in roaring loudly as her stomach was bloody but was slowly healing. The rest of the squad slowly got to there feet seeing Taylor wounded they all shouted at her and grabbed there pistols and unloaded into her causing her to retreat down the hallway having taken to much damage from the grenade.

Hunt was quickly rummaging threw the desks in the office finding a lot of half eaten food which disgusted her. She finally found the keys and opens the safe to see 4 Syringes full of Mercury and snatches it out and walks out, "GOT IT!!" Her eyes widen seeing that Taylor was down, "Lieutenant!!!" She shouts and rushes to his side, "Sir stay with us..." Taylor laughed a bit, "I'll be fine you guys deal with the monster now... It's on you all to kill her.... She... Can't escape..." His body falls limp and his eyes close causing everyone to look away angered and sad all at once... Simon stands and takes command now since he was the next highest rank, "Alright you heard the LT.... We can morn him after we take care of his final task... We have the tools now we need to use them...

Halls, Jones, Hunt, and Rogers all nod in agreement as they each take one and Simons looks at them, "I'll be the bait you four be sure to inject her and take her down.... Oh and Halls.. Don't miss." Halls glared, "Piss off I'll just miss on purpose and let her eat your ass." Simons grins and walks off to find her. As soon as Simons reached a corridor he saw her and she had already healed from Taylors attack with a grenade, "Shit so much for her being wounded..." He thought and pulls out his pistol and shoots her in the face, "Come on bitch!" He taunts then runs and she swiftly reached his heels in a matter of seconds and Simons could hear her breathing as she was right on his ass and he as he ran by the four lunge on the beast and stab there Syringes into her back causing her to roar in pain as the Mercury did it's job running threw her body instantly killing her.

The group looked down at her and then at there commanding officer and now it just dawned on them... Lt. Taylor was gone and he wasn't coming back. So as t hey wait for Lt. Greene to return with transport they decided to burn the lab with the monsters body so the government couldn't study it any further. As Greene arrived Simons salutes her and she returns the a salute and looked around, "Wheres Lt. Taylor." Simons looks down then back at the sheet with a body and she looks down with a sad look, "Damn shame... Lost a good man." She sighs as they head back state side to bury there dead C.O.

As Simons was briefing the Captain on what had happened on the island he was saddened by the fact Lt. Taylor was killed. "I'm sure it was hard on you to fill that role Sergeant." Simons shook his head, "No sir because I had a good Lt. that I looked up to and learned from sir." The Captain nods, "Good response your dismissed Sgt."

Little did they military know that Hunt had downloaded everything from Dr. Rogers computer and gave it to a group of hackers that spread it threw the net so Taylor, Tim, and Taylors wife and child did not die in vain... The whole world found out about the project and they were furious so the werecat project was scrapped.

However back on Island Delta a new threat lingered as a claw bursts from the ground of a unmarked grave site. It a small claw but the roar was deep as a head bursts from the ground....

Lets leave it at that.
