New Front of Operation [Closed to Saileyra and Thorgron]

[Isak Zielinski-White]

Finally, a mission! Jordan was starting to get bored, especially after the meeting with the other agents back in Alaska. For a couple of days, the agent wondered if anything was about to happen or if it was just some pep talk performed by the horrendous Salt. But the report that later appeared on the desk in his quarters proved the contrary. And to make things better, it was his kind of mission. Infiltration. Espionnage. Those were what he was trained for and the success rate of the missions Jordan undertook were perfect. The upcoming mission should be fun and entertaining. But Jordan was not forgetting that this mission was capital for Dominus and a failure was not acceptable. Do or die kind of mission, in a way. Some would be having an awful lot of stress, but not Jordan. The agent was calm, almost in a meditating state despite the ambiant noise caused by the transport. Because yes, Deceiver was on his way for the target's HQ according to the intel already gathered. Going into the Philippines was not the usual kind of place Deceiver was assigned to, but those metahumans hiding there could become a serious threat if left unchecked. It was for that specific reason that Mr. Paxton sent Deceiver oversea to gather intel directly at the source.

The private plane's engines stopped as they were on the airport's field. Jordan got out of it and knew already the destination. By car, Deceiver went to the designated rendezvous point. There, Jordan waited for the local informant to arrive, which he did after a few minutes of waiting. It was a Filipino man in his forties, working indirectly for O.C.E.A.N. He was supplying some materials as well as food to their compound. It was the perfect plan to get in unnoticed. Of course, they were a lot of genetic scanners but nothing Deceiver could not overcome.

After a quick conversation, the man and the agent went to multiples trucks ready to bring more things to the enemy compound. Deceiver looked around and saw a guy going to a warehouse. Calmly, Jordan followed him and as he was about to go out of the building, Jordan brought him back in. After all, Deceiver needed a cover and taking the place of one of the suppliers was the right thing to do. He then left the unconscious man and went back with a crate to the trucks. The informant felt uncomfortable as he saw him.

-You said no kills....

-Relax, he's just knocked out. You'll be back before he wakes up. Now let's move.

And they were on their way. Jordan smiled as they entered the jungle. The mission was now truly starting.

[Saileyra]

Saileyra managed everything in this place, she made the facility from bottom up, and the receiving bay was probably one of the most advanced places in the entire compound. It was loaded with cameras and nano walls, there were odd robotic drones sitting atop of their housing. Not even that, it was on the out skirts of the compound. It seemed like a high end military facility and the technology in this place was far beyond the years. The long lining of nanowalls arced across the entire facility, Sai had been expecting delivery.

She wasn't the founder of OCEAN at all, no one was going to double cross her. If these third party fuckers were doing as she had thought..then again she was always suspecting of others. Those whom delivered supplies and what not; it was why this place was so high security. Yet, she highly doubted of being double crossed but she always came armed to the teeth. She trusted no one besides her operatives and with this vicious mentality she would wait outside the front entrance of the place. Behind the front gate, the nano-wall was invisible but if they went towards it..Well it would eat the vehicle apart.

They knew where to stop, she took all the deliveries, if they wanted to fuck with her they didn't know the angel pillars above them could move. There were millions of them lingering around, some odd dog statues. They didn't know they were XERAMs, the woman was armed, but she wasn't suspecting of anything. One could only see the deft look in her eyes, forever untrusting, every delivery meant risk but as much as she hated it. She had to feed her companions, there was a large check in her pocket and once the change had been made she'd buy the truck and all. It was expensive, but that mean't she'd be able to drive the truck in herself without these fuckers entering the place. It was more than just their head quarters it was their facility and home.

Albeit, she didn't know of anything about the purge nothing, she did not know there were operatives. She had no idea what was going on and what was about to happen. For her, it was just another day in paradise although, how long will paradise last? It was only a matter of times, without avail, she would cross her arms. An menacing looking gauntlet on her arm, it was glowing red, pulsing with an eerie sense of heat. On her hip, the blade, it's four in a half foot length, two impact pistols on either side. Her armor, graphene spider-silk, with nano-weaving it's keen armor was heat resistant, non-conductive, bullet proof. Skin taut, it was flexible, giving her a 'leather' terminator meets cat-woman look. Diamond carbonate boots in a contraspasto position as her crossed arms remained over one another.

[Thorgron]

Life inside the OCEAN base of operations was still new and strange to Scott. His entire life he had lived on the scraps of everyone else. As a child he was poor. As a teenager he was a delinquent, spending his time in the squalor of modern LA. And in his adulthood he had been a prisoner, incarcerated for his drug affiliations. Only recently had he tentatively joined OCEAN and he still felt uneasy around others. Even within its walls, a place Sai assured him his identity would remain secret, he felt like he was being watched. People made him nervous. He knew just how treacherous and dark the human heart could be, trust, even among his allies, was hard to come by.

And so he was now outside of the compound, patrolling in the beauty of the jungle the large base rested in. It was absolutely marvelous unlike anything he had ever seen. No matter how many times he stepped outside he could not help but marvel. In his life he had never been outside of big cities, and now, now he was in the solitude and wonder of this vast jungle. It gave him some faith in the world. No matter how fucked up people were, there was still some pure beauty in the world. It was one of few things that had ever brought him peace was periodically broken as it was now. A large truck was docking some ways away from the main base, stocking up on supplies to support the compound. Just another aspect of his current post which made him uneasy. In his mind it would be so easy to pollute their supply, doom everyone inside before they could ever put up a fight. And though Sai kept a close eye on these sorts of things, he could never be sure.

Watching the truck from afar he noticed something odd. A man had ducked behind the truck for a period of time, just out of view. With Scott's super slow perception of time, he was very good at noticing minor details, absorbing everything about a room and situation. When the man returned and boarded the truck there was something different about him. The clothes and getup were the same, he was sure of that, but the posture was wrong. He now walked different, too much so to be the same man. What was going on here Scott wasn't sure, but whatever it was it gave him reason to be suspicious. Not wanting to make a scene and possibly lose this man he got on his com-link and contacted Sai. "Sai...this is Redline reporting in...there's something fishy...going on with one of the men...on the truck coming...into the base...keep an eye out...I'll trail the truck...see if anything else happens." He remained in the cover of the surrounding jungle like a jungle cat as he followed the truck right towards his new home.

[Isak Zielinski-White]

Jordan expected some a thing to happen. The simplest way in was not the solution, even though it could have been nice, for once, to get the shortcut inside. But that facility didn't had any patrols outside of it so how could he get in. Jordan thought about it and a strange, but effective solution, came to his mind. If people were not to be trusted, food, however, was essential for the compound to survive. It would be a first, but Jordan was decided to try it out. A smile appeared on his face as he informed the supplier about the next step.

The trucks were back about thirty minutes later. The suppliers waited as their delivery was carried inside. They were still the same number of suppliers and as soon as the crates were all taken inside, they went back.

Jordan felt that movement had stopped. And he was taken to some kitchen storage area along with other fish. As soon as he was alone he got out of his tank and morphed back to his human form. It was truly an interesting, yet bizarre, experience to live. But he was naked since shapeshifting did not included clothes. But the fish tank was modified for that matter. A few minutes later, Jordan had suited up and was ready to get moving. Only one thing remained : a body. He waited for someone to arrive, which happened a few minutes later. The man was subdued and hidden and Jordan put the uniform over his attire. Still, he needed to have something to cover his eyes because it was the only thing that did not changed during shapeshifting so it could prove problematic if anyone noticed it. Jordan took some food packages and got out of the storage and a cook started to yell at him that he wanted fish, not beef. Jordan obeyed and got some fish, smiling as he did.

Deception was beginning.

[Saileyra]

There had been a message ringing in her ears, not to far off along she knew he was lurking. There was no posts, no kitchen managers, it was only her and Redline the other existing members of OCEAN within the ranks. It was a remote location with only one outsider allowed in Nyx. There were cameras everywhere routed to one creature, Xeonix. He had a super AI, routed to many of the mainframe just to keep security tabs. Of course, he was not with Sai at the moment but rather in the kitchen! Arms crossed, the man was encased in a rather thristle of body armor. One could compare it to the armor from of Mass Effect, plated, but the plates seemed to twitch with life. On the other than, there was an also eerie red glow to the armor as the red visor glanced about.

Saileyra had driven in the truck by the time Redline has massaged her. That was enough chance for the dude to get inside wether or not she wanted him to be. Saileyra getting out of the truck easily gazed at it her arms crossing. Saileyra stared her eyes watching, there was an alarm, it moved through her ears. Xeonix, he had noticed someone do something odd, Some kid knocked out one of the jack asses..I suggest looking for him. Your camera system indicates that he's moving around the kitchen near the cook. Somthing like that, I can't tell yo u what he precisely looks like for the simple fact the scene was shady and I was skimming channels. With that biological connection she touched her com-link as she was backing the truck out of the compound.

Reaching her side, she grabbed an lighter, "Looks like were growing all our own food from this point forward." She said to herself, once she had spread the gas she had lighted the truck on fire. Explosions heard from behind her as she walked away. She wasn't one to play. she did a com-link to Redline, "Someone managed to get into the H.Q. Rush to the Kitchen. Inspect each person, your faster than I am. Xeonix is there, he will help you."

[Thorgron]

Scott followed the truck straight through the jungle, watched as it unloaded its payload and was taken by Sai. There was nothing. No more suspicious activity,no struggle, nothing. It unnerved Scott and as he watched Sai drive the truck off to be burned he felt in his gut that something had gone wrong, changed. Because of his bizarre sense of time and keen intellect it was almost unheard of that he missed something. Slowly he made his way out from the jungle and into the clearing where the truck had been. He diverted his attention to the ground. Had the man gotten out of the truck? Was he now out lying in wait to ambush them? No, that couldn't be the case, Scott would have seen it. In seconds he came to the conclusion that either their culprit was still in the truck or had somehow gotten inside in the cargo. A buzz in his ear from Sai confirmed the latter. He needed no more conformation and bolted instantly into the massive complex. While he did not yet know the building as well as he would like it took almost no time at all to find the kitchen and the men inside. There were about 20 cooks inside preparing dishes for the rest of the operatives that resided here. Scott's eyes quickly scanned over every man and woman inside, looking for something off. The room was large and had an exit on either side of its length. That detail would be important. Whoever this person was who had decided to infiltrate them was good. They had gotten past both Sai and himself. Scott would let them get no further. Upon entering he reached a hand to his mask and delivered a dose of medicine to himself, he would need it so that he could raise his voice. Then in his damaged voice he yelled into the room. "Everyone stop what you're doing...Xeonix...cover the exit at the other end of the room...now" Again he peered out across the people inside. Most appeared fearful or startled. "There is someone among you...who has breached the security...of this facility...if that individual wishes to reveal himself...please step forward...if not...we'll have to do this...the hard way." As he spoke, the employees in the kitchen hastily formed a line along long wall on the south side. They were all trained to deal with situations like this. OCEAN being an organization bound to make powerful enemies, they needed everyone inside to know how to respond. Scott all the while did not budge from the doorway, his eyes constantly scanning for someone acting in any way suspicious.

[Isak Zielinski-White]

Deceiver got into the line like the nineteen other kitchen employees. He was already detected inside the compound, but he wasn't identified as the intruder yet, meaning the infiltration game was not oven yet. They were looking for him, but the agent was not ready to reveal himself. He looked on each side to see who was around him. He was the third to last on the eastern end of the line. On his left was a woman and on the left, a man. One of them would become his scapegoat so he would be cleared of any suspicion for some time, allowing him to push further the deception. Deceiver had a startled look on his face, like some of the others. He had to blend in. The Dominus agent chose his scapegoat. Now for the next part.

A scream was heard at the eastern side of the line. It was the last woman in the line who did it and looked horrfied while looking at the man beside her. He was holding a stun gun and he had stunned the man on his left. Deceiver was still shapeshifted and was lying on the ground, grunting. The scapegoat looked at him, then the stun gun and at the man was shouting orders. The man was stuttering out of nervosity.

-N....no I'm not the...one y,,,you're looking for! I swear!

Deceiver got back up and stepped away from the scapegoat. Now it was their turn to act and see what they would do.

[Saileyra]

These were not operatives, all these people were expendable the ones with ID's the ones who were recruited. The meta's whom were involved were important, they were much more important. She would hate to do what was crossing her mind right now but her operatives were much more important than those affiliated. These people walking around the compound were just simple, Xeonix was relaying, sending her information. There Are Only Twelve in Here. Should I activate the nano walls? Saileyra decided it was time to kick up the game, if this fucker wanted to mess with her she would end each unaffiliated life in the building. She was not scared of blood shed, she would spill the blood to find this one person. She responded, Xeonix, lock every nano wall except the path that I am going. If this person wants to go out of the kitchen they will have to face me.

Without avail, sirens went off in the facility, Xeonix activated a full scale alert across the compound. It was now code lock down, no one was allowed in and no one was fucking allowed out. Saileyra touched her com-link her form running, a solid forty miles per hour. Armed to the teeth with her blade and Xeonix would accompany the battle. "Redline, If they aren't in a squadron feel free to end their lives. Most of the humans in this place are expendable. Not to sound fucked up, but my operatives are more fucking important right now. If they don't have an OCEAN ID card that identifies them an operative they can be terminated as collateral damage. I do not like traitors and I do not like infiltrators, if you need to make an example of one of them or all of them I don't give a fuck. End all theirs lives if you have to. No one is leaving that fucking kitchen alive if necessary." She said, there was only one path and now the clock would begin. Part of it burned her concious, she knew she gave an dire order, but she was a soldier. Things had to be done properly, people are executed in war. How did this make it any different? Of course, she hired these people, paid these people and she would shoot them all if she had to. They were not the meta-humans she hired personally, they were all hired by Xeonix. These humans, these random people, their lives were important. Yes. But the preservation of OCEAN was far more dire, sacrifices had to be made.


All walls were locked in seconds, the kitchen was a one way out into Sai's location and Xeonix and Thorgron had both walls, now it was a game of cat and mouse and they all had the go. To annhilated, OCEAN did not play and she would show whomever was inside the terror that she would reap upon them.

[Thorgron]

Sai had given the order and OCEAN went on total lock-down. Nano-walls lowered, encapsulating the kitchen except for the exit that Scott stood in front of. No one in here was getting out until the infiltrator was discovered and dealt with. And as usual, Sai and Scott were in agreement. If the man or woman could not be found out, it would meant the death of every man and woman in this room. It was harsh, it was brutal, but it was necessary, an idea Scott was very familiar with. And as Sai's voice rang in his ear, a strange series of events unfolded before his eyes. One of the kitchen staff was handed a stun gun which was then shot at the man who had handed it over. A clever ploy. The man on the ground wished to convince Scott that he was merely a victim and that the man with the gun was the infiltrator. But even had he not seen the covert transaction, the little show would still have raised some red flags. Why would a man intent on invading OCEAN fire a stun gun, which was not OCEAN issue, at one of his coworkers? To a person of a lesser mind lacking super-computer like analytically skills the attention may have been drawn to the man with the gun alone. But for Scott seconds seemed to pass like hours and he had time to think out his situation before other barley had time to blink.

In a flash he acted, bolting to the man with the gun and putting his claws straight through his skull before another word could fall from his lips. Swiftly he removed them and flung bits of brain matter and blood over the man now lying on the ground. With one man already dead, it should be clear to the man that Scott had no intentions of letting him go. In the next instant Scott was staring at the man who had risen to his feet. Within the span of 2 seconds Scott had looked over and identified every aspect of this man. Every wrinkle in his clothes, the number of hairs on his chin, the position of his name tag on his jacket, all of them were now firmly in Scott's mind. "Xeonix...round up the others...in the southeast corner...you have permission...to eliminate any...who does not...cooperate." He said through strained breaths, his eyes never leaving the man in front of him. "Your name and occupation...please...you've got 5 seconds...if you're lucky." He had already examined the name tag. Standing before him was Joshua Turner an assistant chef who had been hired 2 months earlier. Scott was not messing around here. He had seen this man's actions and had little doubt that he was their culprit. If this "Josh" so much as looked at him funny, he'd end him on the spot, cold and remorseless.

[Isak Zielinski-White]

It seemed the one keeping an eye on them didn't wanted to fool around. He swiftly killed the one Deceiver used as a scapegoat and the agent continued to act as normally as possible. The man got him back up and asked him for his name and occupation. Deceiver would have smiled if he could have been able to. But he was prepared for such questions.

-Joshua Turner, assistant chef sir.

Deceiver loved to play these games. Trying to force the other to do something wrong. It was a game of wits. But something bothered him. How could that man saw him do his little scapegoat scenario? Jordan would have to discover it quickly so he could counter with some trick of his own. He did not looked at the man lying on the ground. It was a shame that he died. He probably had a family. But then again, it was collateral damage.

-If I may say sir, what else can I do for you?

The Dominus agent had to keep his adversary busy so he could figure out what to do. But one thing seemed sure : these people were willing to kill their employees if they needed too. Difficulty was higher than originally planned. But Deceiver liked to have such challenges.

[Saileyra]

Xeonix stepped forward, his hand reaching behind him, five fingers gripping as the terminator armored man began to set the doors behind Sai leading the entrance to close. Grasping the blade, he'd hold it taut his right hand holding onto it as he would allow his right hand to hold onto it as he would stare at the kid his eyes scanning. Why not make an example of him? He was right in front of everyone else. Then again, there was the head chief, lets take it down the line of fucking Hierachy. Brandishing the blade, the edge would glow red, the conciousness running over it with mana. Xetallium blade underneath causing it to heat at 200 degrees. Taking the blade, he would slash across hurting the Head Chef by cutitng the dude in fucking half.

"Next will be the assistant head chef if you guys don't fucking talk up. Everyone of you guys will die tonight by my blade. You all understood no intruders were allowed, no family, no friends. Jeopardize these rules you could potentially pay for it with your life." With that said, the half chopped cook remained on the floor as Xeonix would approach the other. Red eyes staring from the visor as he waited for the kids reaction. It was to install an example, he wasn't fucking kidding once he got the go. Saileyra still scaling the long fucking OCEAN HQ. The one flaw to it? It was fucking massive..

Saileyra ran faster, long legs carrying her as she hit her adrenaline pool not to tire. Quickly, she hit her top speed of 40MPH, quick, her long legs carried her as she would accelerate taking through the halls. Moving through them not so fast to clear the entire place but enough to move at a moderate pace of a vehicle. She was going to get there..it would be a few minutes, paging Redline she'd message him, "Few minutes away."
