The video feed cut out.
"So, there you have it. A certain project of ours has gotten out of control." McGregor said.

"I know you all are the best there is at what you do. I will pay you whatever you want. All I ask is that you destroy the weapon when you find it and everything else inside the complex."
Jimmy adjusted his glasses.

"What about the doctors working the-"
"They're dead Jim. All of them."
"So, if we find any survivors...."
"Eliminate them."
Jim stared at him, his face stone.
"You have to understand, I can't allow any of this to leave this room. Take out anybody you see in there."
"They are working for you."
"I'm well aware of that."
Jimmy looked back down at the files. "$50,000.00. Up front. And another 10k when the job is done."
"Of course." McGregor said and snapped his fingers. Two men in suits offered him suitcases full of the money. Jim didn't even look at them. "Have it delivered to the usual place. I'll go get my team and we'll be off."
"Best of luck Jim."
"We don't need luck."
McGregor nodded and turned around to answer a phone call.
Later....
Jim rolled up to meet up with his team. Who were playing cards. "Yo JIM!" Kiva (the girl with black hair) called to him and threw a knife at him. Jim smirked and caught it, turned and threw it right back. She deflected it with her own knife and grabbed it and sheathed them both. She hi fived him as he walked over. "Nice moves man."
"Back at you."
Ginger was on the phone. "Yeah another long day. I should be home by the end of the month and I'll take you to the zoo. Pinky promise honey." She saw Jim. "Alright, look I'm going to be busy for a few days so I won't be able to call back alright? But I swear I'll call you back the moment I can. Okay, give your daddy a hug and a kiss for me sweetheart. I love you too." She hung up. "Sup?"
Gary, the big guy, shook his head. "You're going to have to tell your kid what you're really doing sooner or later."
"Not going to happen."
"It's for the best."
"No. She looks up to me. She thinks I'm a business woman." Ginger said. "It's better that way. Anyway, what's the job Jimbo?"
"Everyone gather around. We've got a big one."
As the team gathered up he explained the mission.
"So Gregor wants us to break into a military facility and eliminate a super soldier and any and all survivors of the attack?" Lewis, the brown haired guy asked.
"That's the sum of it, yeah."
"That isn't what we do. Slaughtering people like that I mean." Chris, Gary's brother with the black hair, pointed out.
"What's the pay?" Kiva asked.
"50K up front and another 10k when we're done."
"Hoooboy. He must really want this kept quiet."
"We can split that up nicely."
"It stinks."
"Exactly. We'll play along but if we find any survivors, we protect them and we get a clear answer on this. I want to know what the hell is really going on." Jimmy said.
"Rodger that. Are we bringing in the masks?"
"The masks, grenades, heavy artillery, all of it. I am not taking risks on this."
"SIR!"
Later, they were all armored up and on a private jet to the facility.

Arriving, they saw that, from the outside at least, it was in good condition. "So what now?" Ginger asked. "Do we blow it down?"
"As much as fun as that would be, let's try the easy way. Gary?"
"On it." Gary pulled out a cryptographer and sat down and worked with it until he cracked the code and got the door to open. "Viola!"
Chris patted his brother on the back and they walked in. It didn't take long to see that all of the lights were out, so they switched on the night vision of their helmets. Continuing into the facility, they came upon a rather shocking sight. "What the f-k?!"

"Are you guys seeing this?" Jim asked.
"What could do something like this?" Ginger asked.
"Must be that soldier thing we were told about." Gary said.
"Alright, everybody stay close and keep quiet." Jim said. The two walked down the hallway slowly, going from room to room and searching for signs of life but they found nothing but blood and entrails. "God.....what the hell is this guy?"
"Just-just keep moving." Jim said as they continued on. As they continued further it was the same. Shards of broken glass littering the ground, bullet holes in the walls, hand prints on the wall. Whatever had happened, it was obvious there was a fight and that the guards here had lost. "I don't like this." Ginger said. "We should call for backup."
"Don't wimp out on us. We've seen worse." Kiva snapped.
"Cool it you two."
Lewis turned around. "What is it?!" Chris asked.
"I heard something."
"What? Where?" The team took firing positions. "It-it was right behind us but-" They looked around. "Dammit I know I heard something!"
"There's nothing there. Now come on." Jim said. "Lewis!"
"I know there was something there...." He stared into the blackness before following them.
As they went deeper, Chris spotted something on the wall. "The hell.....t-take a look at this!"
The team gathered around and saw what he was looking at.

"What....could have done this? Some kind of claw weapon?"
Jim rubbed his finger along one of the claw marks. "I don't think so....it looks like whatever did this has claws. That could explain how it did all this..."
"Oh good, now it has claws!"
"Ginge!"
"What? You were thinking it too."
They heard a noise and immediately stood back up. The team stood quietly for a few minutes before advancing. Still nothing. As they continued deeper into the facility, down tunnels and corridors, they passed a door and heard a sound behind it: Crying. Somebody behind the door was crying and sobbing. Ginger stepped back and pressed a button on her helmet. There was confirmation of life signs behind the door. "Sir! We have a survivor!"
"Get it open!"
Gary knelt down and did his thing and then backed up with the others. They were prepared to fire.....until they saw who was behind it. A crying, blood splattered, traumatized woman rocking back and forth. Upon closer observation, they saw she had claw marks down her face.

Jim signaled for his team to stand down and approached her cautiously. "Excuse me, ma'am?"
The woman looked up at him and screamed in horror. "NOOO! NO! NO MORE! PLEASE! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! PLEASE! PLEASE!" She started backing herself up and shielded herself with her hands. "Ma'am, ma'am please, we're not here to hurt you. Look...look...." Jim set down his gun. "See? I'm putting my weapon down. We're soldiers. We're here to help. Can you please tell us what happened?"
The woman, still trembling, looked up at them for a few moments before slowly reaching out and taking his hand and stepping out of the room with him. "Alright, see? We're the good guys. My name is Jim. This is my team: Ginger, Kiva, Gary, Chris and Lewis. We're the Wolfpack. Can you tell us your name?"
"M-m-mmmm....moll....Moll...Molly."
"It's very nice to meet you Molly. Now, can you tell us what happened here?"
"We tried to play God......this...." She looked at the hell around them. "This is what happened." Suddenly something occured to her. "Wait....you...you...h-how...how did you get in?"
"We hacked the door and-"
Molly grabbed Gary. "Did you lock the door?! Please....please tell me you were smart enough to lock the damn door!"
"Well, yeah, of course. Why?"
"It can't get out! Do you understand? No matter what, it cannot escape to the outside world!"
"It?" Chris stepped forward. "This isn't a person?"
"Person? A-a person? It's not even f-ing HUMAN!"
The Wolfpack stared at each other for a moment. That settled it: They had been set up.
"Miss Molly....what is this 'thing' you're talking about?"
Molly hugged herself. "We-we wanted....we tried....to-to...to replicate...her."
"Her? Her who?"
"Morpha. We-we wanted....to create one of our own....the first in a series of super soldiers for the government. At least....that was the plan. I obtained a sample of her body during a super villain battle. We tried to understand it, to replicate it and make our own......it went wrong....it all went so wrong...it got loose.......did this. I barely had time to lock myself inside that door and I heard everyone scream and yell and bleed and die!" She broke down sobbing.
Jim put his hand on her shoulder. "Come on get up. We're getting the f-k out of here."
"Sir?"
"You heard her, this thing was made from Morpha. I doubt we can even hurt it with the weapons we have. We'll get out, seal the place back up, call the heroes and let THEM deal with it. Our priority now is to get her out of here and go home alive!"
"SIR YES SIR!" The team saluted and Jim and Kiva helped her up. "Can you walk? Can you run?"
Molly nodded.
"Alright, keep up!" The soldiers and the wounded scientist ran back up the way they came.
Proceeding down a hallway, they heard a noise and then green goo fell down from the ceiling. "No...nooo....i-it...it found us!"
The soldiers stared as the green goo started gathering together and took on a humanoid shape.
Once it had finally finished, the monster's all too human dollike face grinned at them.
"FIRE!" Jim yelled and the team opened fire with souped up semi-automatics. The bullet's tore through the monster as the soldier's shot it apart and kept shooting at the goo on the ground, kept shooting until Jim signaled for them to stop. As soon as they stopped shooting however, the creature came right back together and held out a hand, it's palm facing downwards. The bullets they had fired were moved through it's body and dropped out of it's hand onto the ground harmlessly.
"And now we run?" Ginger asked.
"Yes. NOW!" The team turned and ran for it as the monster gave chase.
