Copland came out of the elevator to meat Tower, Beret and Jim in the lobby. "Lets move" he said. The team went out side and found an APC, it was a little damaged. Phillips went inside and sat down at the drivers seat. Lucas went to the control pannel on one side, and the others sat down. Phillips pushed a button. The door at the back closed. After pushing a few more buttons, the APC came to life and started moving. "I've put it on auto-drive to a small part of the city, near the outskirts, there is a large power sorce coming from it". Tower climbed up to the .50 caliber gun at the top. "Nice..." he said. Lucas typed fast on the control pannel. "Okay, we should be there in about 5 minuets, but this APC has got a leak in the fuel tank, we'll have to ditch it asap." "Fine" said Copland.
Hawken and his team walked out of the building. They saw the APC take off. "Right, the bug DNA first. We have to go past the main hive to get to it, which is in an elevator in the centre of the city. It will be loaded with bugs, since they'll go back to the hive with there food." Said Demit "I hope your right..." said Koch, who was looking at 5 dead bugs, their bodies riddled with bullets. They moved through the now nearly pitch black city, taking off their gas masks and putting on their night vision goggles. Demit checked her GPS on her wrist. "Here" she said. Infront of them there was a small buliding, they walked in to find a circular room With an elevator in the middle and computers all around the edges of the room. They went into the elevator. "This should take us to a small armoury, and then to the hive." The elevator moved slowly, and it was very creaky. "Its damaged, must have fallen down at great speeds." Said Demit. When they reached the bottom, the doors opened, and they were greated with a horrible sight. A team of marines torn to pieces. Blood on the ceiling and walls, Hawken went over to a marine who looked like a leader. "Ryan" it said on his vest. "Dean let the bugs in, and trapped this team down here..." said Koch. "And these weapons were firing blanks, they didnt have a chance." Demit went up to a big blood stained door, and pushed a code in on the pannel. She then took out a card and swiped it, the lock blew open, and the door opened. They all crouched down. "Koch" said Hawken. Koch moved into the darkness, after about 5 minuets, a green flare went off, lighting up a huge cave, slime dripping from the walls, the cave split into lots of tunnels, that went in every direction. "The lab used to be at the top" Said Demit "But it was then moved down to the hive so that the bugs could be studied more easly, this way..." Demit lead the team down a dark tunnel.
Behind them, 15 objects started to move...
