Some time ago, Sgt. Laurence Cooper came running into the Bar yelling about the
terrifying space monkeys. Naturally, that kind of thing attracts some attention! First of all from his old squad made
Spoon, then from
Harry Wells, and finally from
Wesker. The first two conversations reveal that the monkeys had cybernetic stuff on their faces, or at least in some way resembled the Terminator, hence 'space'; also that they seem to've been giving off pure fear pheromones, hence 'terrifying'. The last conversation... well, that doesn't go so well.
Due to one thing and another (read: RL) it takes a while before the monkeys can be pursued. But eventually that opportunity arises, and our lads all
load up and head off to the Scottish island of Unst, where Cooper came in from. There are monkeys, all right- plenty of monkeys. And those things on their heads?
Laser targeting systems. You know how monkeys can be...
Fortunately, the facility the monkeys escaped from
isn't too far off. And it just so happens that the
introductory briefing system is still up and running. As Cooper says, at least the government seems to know what they're doing this time. Pity that the animals've all got loose, eh? Especially the
big damn radio-controlled cybernetic pig. There is, however,
one human left in the facility; Dr. Rayfield fills them in a bit more on what happened, and on what else they can expect: a few more fearmonkeys, a couple of
venomous laser wolves, and Jimmy.
They make a break for the emergency exit when it becomes clear that conditions are about to get hazardous. Spoon insists on locating and rescuing the
venomous laser wolves even as conditions get more chaotic, and they're within striking distance of the exit when
Jimmy makes his appearance. Exeunt omnes,
pursued by a bull.
Our heroes emerge directly underneath
the finest bus shelter in the world. They are, alas, unaware that while their adventures took an hour or so in Scotland, it's been
a few days' bar time. But they do
return, and they are met by
people who have been waiting for them, and the venomous laser wolf puppies are
given to good homes.
So, in the end, all is well. At least for now; the briefing message did say that one of the scientists left the project long ago, and nobody knows what's become of
him...![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
