Werewolf - Medical Marvel, Day 1.
The year is 2012, the age of scientific research and discovery. A grand big brother show located in Utah, in the Glenwood mountains east of the small city of Monroe has gathered a twenty-one person large participant crowd. Amongst them are regular people with boring jobs, while others are eccentric and unique. The show is called “Medical Marvel”. Welcome to the ‘show’…
The bus stopped high up in the mountain of Glenwood, in a small settlement with only a handful of houses and an S-mart food store. Bob of Utah (Commandant Oreo) kept telling everyone how great the forests in this area were, completely untouched by human hand!
“Is that why there’s a giant steel-bunker sticking out of the mountain, in the middle of the forest?” Niko Bellic (Bad Voodoo) said sarcastically. This effectively quieted down Bob.
Granny Hanson (Emberoth) was the first to leave the bus, which angered Jak (dmel25), due to her slow pace. The rest of the party followed and were greeted by a tall man in a trench coat, which looked like it was made from steel even thought it was swaying in the wind.
“Oh look, it’s Iron Man.” Kit Jenkins (Donkey_Cavity) said, which made Jackie Ansell (Rosveen), Jim Creeper (Fighters_Brotherhood) and Volodya Kuznetsov (Ratwar) chuckle.
The trench coated man smiled. “Name’s Jeremy Taylor and I’m your game host in this big brother show. May I introduce my cameraman, Jim Buttons?” A huge camera with what seemed to be two legs approached, but a silent hello and a bearded face could be seen behind it. “Please follow me inside.”
The steel entrance to the bunker opened with a loud whistle and the group entered. A long corridor leading down was revealed, lit by blue lights straight from Sci-Fi movies. Lord Bartholomew (Erginho) was taking in details of the surrounding, most likely for a future book. Jon Moriarty (Frank the bunny) was uninterested of the blue lights and lit his pipe out of boredom.
At the very bottom, they reached another sealed door, this one made from something else than steel. Frank DeNiro (Mr. E) had been taking large sips from a metal hip flask all the way down here and was beginning to have red cheeks. Jeremy Taylor opened the door by entering a long code onto a control panel next to the door. It opened silently.
The first room inside was boringly empty, but the second room was a large room with high –roof. The Main Hall was well lit, by normal lights. A large table containing filled glasses of champagne greeted the guests. “A welcome gift.” Jeremy Taylor smiled and pointed the group to the table. Barney Stinson (8-Bit Legend) drank his in one swoop, trying to look as awesome as he could while doing so.
“Cheers.” Ratticus Waricus (Big Bang) said, answered by agreeing cheers from Shi-Long Lang (hircine21) and Janie Piscani (Oranos).
Jeremy Taylor wanted to show the others his office, which turned out to be a pink room. More than one in the group raised a questioning eyebrow, including Amanda Parker (PartyPoison) and Ron White (Northwind Fusilier) who tried his best not to crack a joke of the choice of color. “Hmm what’s this…” Jeremy Taylor muttered, moving towards the only computer in the room. It was blinking and a small peeping sound could be heard from it. There was a pending message on it. He opened it with a confused look on his face. The rest of the group leaned forward in the small office, trying to read what was written on it. It read:
“Dear participants,
We are most grateful that you’ve agreed to participate in this game-show. Unfortunately, you’ve been lied to. You may be feeling betrayed and angry, confused and perhaps frightened, but there’s no need to panic. You are, truthfully, participating in a very important scientific gene-manipulation project, financed and engineered by the D.E.A.D corporation (Development and Experimentation of Alien Deviations). You’ve all digested various versions of the same mutagenic agent. The effects of them is theoretically known, but hasn’t been fully tested yet, until now. You may have a rough night ahead of you, due to the transformation in your DNA. Should you need painkillers, there will be a dose next to your table, small enough not to interfere with the process of DNA change. (The approximated amount of ibuprofen in the pill given to you is 0,00 mg). If everything goes as expected, you will be home this time tomorrow.
Sleep well,
-Dr, Nero Cobblesmith.”
The anger and confusion was heard and seen in the small office as everyone in the group began to talk loudly, shouting and waving their hands. Some looked interested, while others had pure terror written on their faces. Before Jeremy Taylor was able to say anything, most of the group rushed to the bunker entrance and tried to open it. Jeremy Taylor followed and entered many different passwords into the console, but was greeted by an angry red light and a buzzing sound every time.
“Looks like we’re [censored].” Remand Lens (XD.) said.
“No reason to panic. The message clearly said we’ll all be home by this time tomorrow. Let’s sleep through the night and... Hope for the best.” Jeremy Taylor said, his voice shaking. Some muttered in disagreement and others in agreement, but there really was nothing they could do anymore. Lin Shoo (The-Z-Man) gave the sealed door a final kick before settling in for the night.
The screams that could be heard in the bunker that night were some of the most horrifying you can imagine. If you take the sound of metal being scraqed against a glass window, amplify it with powerful speakers and mix it with the sound of a dying wolfhound you might come close.
Everyone showed up next morning, pale as sheets, except for one man. Jim Buttons, the cameraman was missing. The group found him at the bunker entrance, dead in a pool of his own blood, but without visual wounds. Dr. Hugo Voltaire (Wyatt Waste Ranger) pushed the body on to its side, revealing several scratch marks from claws on Jim Button’s back, deep enough to kill. Further inspection showed that the tape in Jim’s camera hadn’t been removed. Watching it showed a dear-diary of Jim at the bunker entrance, suddenly turning around, only to be attacked by a furry... thing… from behind. The tape ended shortly after, but not before a figure approached from the far end of the room the camera had fallen to. The room was dark, but it sure did look like the figure was smoking something… The group looked at each other in confusion.
“This isn’t part of the show… Is it?” Ray Minsky (Slyme) said with a bitter look on his face. Jeremy Taylor slowly shook his head, still in disbelief. The sound of a loud peep could be heard all the way to the entrance, coming from the host’s office, an exact same peep as the message sound from yesterday. They all gathered around the computer. The new message read:
“Dear subjects,
This night our cameras picked up an unusual but highly interesting phenomenon. There seems to be three dangerously aggressive individuals amongst you, who with a lack of a better scientific word, could be called creates of the night, “werewolves” of sorts. I’m afraid we cannot allow these individuals amongst you to step foot in the outside world. There is a way to override the password to the door from inside, but that will be taken care of after this message has been read. A failsafe will be triggered, locking you in until you’ve cleared the mess you’ve caused, one way or another.
Happy hunting and good luck,
-Dr, Nero Cobblesmith.”
The sound of power shutting down could be heard in the entire bunker, leaving only the lights in the bunker on. The group eyed each other with a varied amount of hatred and mistrust and Jeremy Taylor opened a locked safe, bringing out a shotgun with a bitter look on his face. “[censored].”, he said, followed by the sound of a shotgun being loaded.
