[Talon Lord Othrim]

He smiles back, "Does he now? I'll be right through just need the loo."
He goes upstairs and takes his gun from the gunlocker in his wardrobe, loads it and consealing it behind him goes into the bathroom and flushes the toilet. Runs the tap a little then comes back down stairs. Entering the living room he looks for the 'guest'.

[Thugren]

The man sitting at the table considers you warmly as you come in.

His name is Tyson irons , special operations commander, and your old friend.


" Steve... It's good to se you man.."

He says with a sad smile.

" I wish I came with better news... But I was sent here by command, the governments issued a black protocol. All personnel active or retired need to be brought in by tomorrow."

He shakes his head.

"Shits bad man... Real bad."

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"Sorry Tyson but thats not me anymore. I'm a civy now with a young family. I'm not about to get sucked back in."

[Thugren]

He smiles weakly.

" your not being given a choice Steve . I got pulled too. We have an outbreak of somethig wicked and the governments already committed most forces to the Chinese wall... Please make this easy on me. Your family will be taken someplace safe, a safe haven called sanctum."

He reaches to his hip, pulling out his pistol and putting it on the table.

" my orders are to bring you in... By any means necessary.."

[Talon Lord Othrim]

Seeing Tyson pull the gun Steven nearly when for his own but resisted the urge. He looks to Karren. "Does'nt look like we have a choise," to Tyson, "does it? Do as I'm told or what? Your ordered to kill me?"

[Thugren]

Tyson looks at you , his face a mask of unreadable emotion .

"By any means necessary Steve... I was brought in the same way."

Karen looks at you calmly.

" Steve..... Don't worry about us dear... We don't need to resort to violence."

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"Fine, but if anything happens to my family while I'm not there I will hold you responsible. What's the deal?" He sits down.

[Thugren]

Tyson sighs , holstering his sidearm .

" something ... We're getting more and more cases of violent attacks.. More maulings, people going missing , only to be found weeks later mauling civies or eating animals.."

He pushes a picture of one of the victims, hunched over, her lips ripped and ragged laying face down.

" you religious Steve?"

[Talon Lord Othrim]

He picks up the photo quickley so Karren does not see it. "Love could I have a coffee?" He askes. She know he wanted to talk business so when into the kitchen. "What's this all about?" He asked once she had gone.

[Thugren]

" I'm not going to beat around the bush Steve. We're on full alert. This infection... This ... Whatever the fuck this is , is re animating the dead or infecting the living."
He looks out side , his state cold.

" by estimation the virus has already gone pandemic. The governments demanded all personnel called in to fight this."

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"Fight this! oh come on listen to what your saying. The dead are comming to life and killing the living only to continue the cycle. How the hell are we supposed to fight that? Really? what the hell can we do about it?"

[Thugren]

He looks at you calmly.

" what choice do we have Steve? Hide? Hope that they pass our homes and loved ones? What will you do when these things are at your door? Hm? How will you protect your wife then?"

He looks at you severely.

" do you think sitting and doing nothing will somehow be a better choice?"

[Talon Lord Othrim]

He sighs, "What are the orders??"

[Thugren]

Your wife comes in with coffee and some pastries .

" ma'am.... Please pack a bag for you as your son. The apc taking you to the sanctum will be here shortly."

She nods, watching you for a moment before Tyson turns to you.

" we're taking you to where some of the reports are beig centered. There have been reports of people ferrying human cargo.... Some of these cargo have been found at the murder scenes, wich leads is to beleive that Someone is releasing these things Ito the populace.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"So investigate the scene for clues and stop whoever is behind it. Understood."

[Thugren]

Outside you hear the telltale rumble of the apc and Tyson stands.


Say your goodbyes Steve.... We move out right after... Suit up as well."

He turns and leaves you alone in the room.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

Whilst Karren packs he goes to his gun locker and puts on his gun harrnes and ankle strap. He did not have much, it had been a long time since he was in active service and a butcher had very little requirments in the way of fire arms.

"Take care love." He said kissing Karren goodbye at the door. "I will be with you both as soon as I can. You should be safe."

[Thugren]

Your wife and son smile as they get into the apc and the door rumbles closed.

Tyson puts a hand on your arm pointing you to an in conspicuous escalade.

" ill give youthe real briefing now."

He pushes an m16 into your arm.
" standard weapon, modified with a silencer and an acog... You'll be going in with me and two others... Nothing leaves that dock alive Steve ."

[Talon Lord Othrim]

Steve checks the weapon and sight alignment. "Let's put them down"

[Thugren]

You are lea into the escalade and it takes off.

The trip takes hours, you doze off and awaken to the sound of drill orders.

The car has stopped and Tyson is talking to two other men outside of the car, running them through gear checks
