Everything Burns Ch.5: The Killer Within

Leonardo's shoes were making quite the ruckus as he walked a long the Tower's chrome floor's, he was heading to Captain Zhao's office. Leonardo, (Leo as everyone calls him) was wearing an old world suit and tie, his jet black hair was combed back, and his bright blue eyes were impossible to miss. Leo was a decedent of a group of people from a long forgotten land on earth called 'England' and he talked the same way they did so many years ago. It was late in the night, so there weren't very many other people around, Leo was somewhat of a secretary to Captain Zhao, and he had to deliver some new information to him. Eventually, he got to the quartermaster's desk. "Good evening Enclave." Leonardo said. Enclave took his hand out of the disassembled gun he was cleaning and raised an eyebrow at Leonardo. "What brings you here at this hour?" Enclave said. Leo adjusted his tie, "I need to see Captain Zhao, it's about Rain." Continuing to stare at Leo, Enclave pressed a button under his desk and a piece of the wall behind him slid open. "Thank you Enclave." Leo passed by Enclave as he walked inside the almost pitch black computer room. Leo spotted Captain Zhao in his large black cape, sitting at the main computer screen. He walked towards the Captain. "Yes?" the Captain said, his back still facing Leo. "Sir, I have new information on Rain" Captain Zhao spun around in his chair, "Really? is he awake?" Leo took the seat next to Zhao, "More than just awake sir, he convinced Fire-team X-ray to join him in getting 'revenge', on Fire-team Zeta." Zhao put his hand on his chin and spun back around in the Chair. A large psych profile popped up on screen, he clicked on the 'edit' button, and the 'personality' line was highlighted. "How did he convince them to help him?" Leo thought for a moment and then said "He yelled sir; Loudly." Zhao grunted, "Typical of him." Zhao entered 'ignorant, and Rude' on the 'personality' section. He turned back to Leo, "Is that all?" Leo stood up. "No sir, he said he was heading to the tower." Vhalon took a step on the 'Citizen Nothing's' ramp, and looked behind him at Venus one last time. He thought the tall mountains, and lush jungles were beautiful, however, he didn't have much time to think. "Vahlon!" Ayra said, "Rain's closing the back! get in!" Vahlon stepped all the way in and the ramp closed behind him. Ayra turned around and headed to the cockpit. Vahlon checked his watch, 11:22 it read. "Making good time" he thought. Vahlon walked towards the cockpit, and knocked on the door. it slid open. Ayra was at the weapons seat, flipping switches and turning dials. Rain was sitting in the pilot's seat. Vahlon took the co-pilot seat next to Rain. Rain looked at him, "You okay Vahlon?" Vahlon ignored Rain, put his arms behind his head, closed his eyes and said "wake me when we get their." Rain saw the giant tower coming into focus on the view screen, "Ayra, wake up Vahlon" Rain heard Ayra swivel out of her seat and shake Vahlon awake. Rain set in the landing hanger key, and walked over to the ramp outside the cockpit. He checked the ammo counter on his helmet, and made sure he had his revolver 'Hail' with him, then, Ayra and Vahlon walked out of the cockpit wearing their helmets. Rain looked up and grabbed hold of a celling rail and turned his face towards his team. "Alright everyone, we're gonna get in and out quick, i'm just getting my armor fixed, and my weapons remade, then we'll find out where Fire-team Zeta went." Vahlon looked at Rain's locked and loaded revolver, "Rain, why are you carrying that?" He asked. Rain covered the gun with his synthetic arm. "It's just a precaution, in case the sh*t hits the fan." Vahlon crossed his arms. "So," Rain continued "is everyone ready?" Ayra nodded, Rain and Ayra looked over at Vahlon, "Fine" he said. The ship landed in the hanger with a thud. Rain pulled the lever, and the Ramp slowly lowered it self onto the cold chrome floor. Rain, Ayra and Vahlon all booked it for the Armor kiosk in the left side of the several hundred square foot room. Eventually, they made it. Ayra and Vahlon took defensive positions around the kiosk as Rain inputted his armor code, even though they didn't have guns. "Alright, i'll just be a minute" Rain said as he stepped inside. The kiosk removed the broken pieces of armor, and replaced them with repaired versions of Rain's iconic black and orange Titanium plates, his helmet was taken off, and was put back on with a new visor, HUD update, and a breathing respirator. Then his hood and cape were put back on. clean and sleek, Rain stepped out of the machine, and lifted his head up to see Ayra and Vahlon staring at him. "Pretty Bitchin' right?" Rain said somewhat arrogantly. Ayra started to silently laugh. "Ok, focus, did you two see anyone out here?" Ayra and Vahlon both said "Nope," in unison. "Ok, let's get to the computer system's" That's when Rain saw a Black caped figure step out of a rectangular hole behind the quartermaster's desk. "HEY!" Rain yelled. The figure stopped and looked at Rain. Rain sprinted towards the mysterious person. The figure was about to step inside the room. but Rain tackled him to the ground. Rain punched him in the face and said; "who are you?" The figure laughed and stared at Rain. Rain looked down at the man's name engraved on his uniform. "Captain Joshua Zhao" it read. Rain picked him up by the collar and shoved him up against the wall. "Zhao? Arn't you the guy who's in the special intelligence division?" Rain had heard about these guys, they knew EVERYTHING, about EVERYONE. Rain looked over into the secret room inside the wall, it was filled with screens that had all information possible on one thing: Him. The anger Rain had felt when he woke up in the hospital resurfaced, His visor came down, and his infuriated eyes stared into Zhao's, it took a second for Zhao to realize what was happening, his face went from; surprised, to completely horrified. "No, no no no NO!" Rain ripped off Zhao's cape and tied it around his mouth, so all you heard from him were muffled screams. Rain then Threw Zhao into the room, and shut the door. "RAIN! OPEN UP!" Ayra kept yelling at the door. All she and Vahlon had been hearing for the past five minutes were; Yelling, laughing, and cries of agony. Eventually, The door opened up. Rain walked out and was dripping with dark red human blood. "Found out where Zeta is." Rain said. "Wh-Wh-Where's Z-Zhao?" Vahlon asked, shaking. "On the walls, the celling, and the floor."
