"There isn't going to be any rescue, we have to get out of here!"
"Something months back was uncovered when Harmony and I were given a file on her by Rabbit. In it, was an exert from Hija himself, Something about Operation scorched earth. A message left for Alice as if he had it ready whether he died or not." He walked over all the corpses as they moved towards the elevators. He waited for a moment for her to piece together the thought process.
"It's really only a theory. Hija dies, then they show up. If they're part of this scorched earth thing then it's likely we can crack a red queen to try and find anything related to scorched earth, and with any hope find information pertaining to this group that attacked us." He got to the elevator, it's box was half way in the opening. He took a moment before striking the foot plate hard enough to unlatch the safety mechanisms and let the thing plummet to the vast abyss below. "It's a shot in the dark and likely to turn up absolutely nothing. So if it does, apologies for wasting your time."

"Well, if this fails," she said following him closely, "we can always scout around for Alice's archives, I can fully unlock anything she put a bio-lock on or requires voice activation of hers."
She wasn't lying either, unlike the other clones, something was different with her. As if Alice truly meant for her to be her successor. At the end of the day Janice hadn't failed in unlocking anything of Alice's, even written passwords came to her as if she always remembered them. Now that she knew Alice's process with the other clones she imagine her personal programming was to remember things only Alice would know as if there was a mental layer just sitting in the balance waiting for her interaction.
"Fucking shame the penthouse was destroyed, that is the only access point I know of to the archive currently. We'll have to do some digging," she said and took a breath, "BUT that's for another time, let's focus on the matter at hand. White Queen, search protocol, rampant bitch AI."
"The cores of red queens are usually stored on the absolute lowest floor." He pulled up a map on his wrist, flicking his wrist created a 3d model of the original hive and there was a red dot where the AI core was located. "This however was a smaller facility." The map of the hive they were in pulled up along side the old hive.
While it had the same bee hive shape it was easily smaller by comparison and around the middle of it fanned out extensions. "Information from a mission brief had surveyed this area." He pointed to a point in one of the auxiliary extensions. "Is where the AI's core is supposed to be. I was going to be a part of this mission which was going to take place in three days. That was before the attack on our base. So in a way, this is two birds one stone."
He stepped off the ledge in the elevator shaft and swung around to the ladder and climbed down enough so that Janice could also get onto the ladder. It was safer than potentially running a risk of the Red Queen dropping an elevator should they had gotten into one.

She slipped onto the ladder and as they climbed said, "I was supposed to be investigating a new arrival in town before this incident. Safe to say the arrival got the drop on us. Himura saw this coming but somehow they were a step ahead of her... Which isn't like her. As long as I've known her and every detail on every file about her always puts her long ahead of everyone around her and then this happens."
There wasn't much in the way of details about the raid either, she entered the Lodge after the raid had cleared out and helped the few survivors she could find. The attackers had taken Sazon's body as well as the body of George Isaacs body guard. Last she heard Isaacs was still alive with Harmony somewhere on the outskirts hiding.
"It was bound to happen eventually." He finally replied. Janice was correct, Sazon was usually always ahead of the curve, always on top and constantly in the know and 3 steps ahead of everything. "Either they're that good, or she slipped up somewhere." He was already guesstimating how long it would take to slide down the ladder from level to level to get to where they needed to be.
He didn't mention anything else, while it was true that the mention Isaacs or his body guard made him recall Harmony, and while in a way he was worried about her and if she had made it out okay or not. There were matters at hand that needed to be dealt with first. Most would find this careless or callous but the two of them had that way about them. It was just a thing that made working together easier.

"I think there's something more to it than she slipped up," Janice said, she had worked with Sazon non-stop since 2027, there was no way she just slipped up, "whoever we're dealing with has someone on the inside... Then there is that witch with them, I don't know what she is but there's nothing on record like her... Well that's not entirely true."
She was referring to L, "there was one, the son of the NATAS project basically. The Sword of the Maiden, I'll have to touch base with White Rabbit at some point soon to see who survived the raid in the ruins. We'll need to find project Lucifer and get in touch with Amy."
"At this point there's no use wondering if they were just better than her or not. They obviously got the upper hand and she lost her life." He replied, at this point he was taking the rungs two or three at a time in order to expedite the trip. "I've sent her a warning, in fact multiple messages since Hija was killed and there's been no response." He informed Janice, he wasn't too concerned on that end. He had a theory that she was power napping somewhere or something.
There was literally nothing that could really kill her between then and when this group showed up. "That explains the reason my senses were on fire when he showed up once. Given how powerful he is, I doubt he deals with anyone other than Amy, so finding him is going to be a pain in the ass."
He stopped for a moment finally taking his feet of of the rungs and letting himself slide all the way down the ladder until he reached close to the target level. From there he sprung off the ladder into a backwards flip which landed him feet first on the shaft wall opposite the elevator doors. From there he pushed off the wall, leaving a large dent in the wall from the force and shouldered right through the elevator shaft doors, sheering them completely outward he rolled on the floor coming up in a crouch with his weapon drawn and scanning the area. "Clear for now."

When he began sliding she followed suit landing gracefully at the bottom as he got through the doors.
"He's already been seen multiple times coming and going from HIVE 27, every time scavs head that way he kills them and if they take the ruins they end up dead. We've found their bodies in pits around that area multiple times. Sazon was building a task force at one point to investigate his activities but she wanted to inform Amy before then, then she just disappeared and it got a pin put in it."
Janice pulled her pistol letting him lead was the smarter option, his gear was rated for higher caliber weapons fire while hers was more so for flexibility and environmental protection.
"I'll leave him to you then I guess." He had no real intention of interacting with that man. Not because he was afraid but because he just didn't like the feeling of his senses firing off constantly while being in his presence, An overloading presence like that could easily drown out the chance of sensing approaching danger.
Speaking of He stopped just short from a turn down a hall. The wall to their left exploded into rubble and from the dust lumbered a huge pale creature that caused Wraith to actually crane his neck upwards. Before them stood the absolute meaning of obsolete. A failed 100 series Tyrant, it had the pale gray skin of a 103, but the exposed heart pumping away and the jagged disgustingly clawed right hand were dead give aways.
Under his mask he smiled, in the room it had just come from were several incubation tubes all with what looked to be failed Tyrants and they were being awoken. "That's cute." Wraith didn't move, instead he held his hands behind his back even as the monster was rearing its claw to strike.

"I don't think I'll be handling it, I'll pass it on to someone else," she said, she didn't think the chain of command was just gone because Sazon was out of the picture, but there was no idea who was in charge of Blu-Umbrella currently.
Janice stepped back before the wall exploded, it was a natural reflex of her body keeping her out of danger, something she anticipated before seeing it just because of how high tuned everything was for her. The 100 series tyrant stood there lumbering taller than most, it matched similar descriptions to the Valentine reports from 98 and truly was a massive step back in the world of tyrants today.
"These are actually quite common in the Dead Zone, granted, they're mutated and many have gained sentience making them far more dangerous that the old models," she said, her voice didn't honestly register real danger here.
"You don't say? I've only ever seen these in pictures." He stepped to the side as its massive claw came down and sunk into the ground. "Shame we'll have to kill it." He hopped back as the tyrant ripped its claw out and started slashing towards him, three strikes followed by a spearing movement. It's movements were basic, it's speed hardly what he'd consider anything out of the ordinary.
He finally stopped placing with the thing since the others were breaching their tubes but they weren't strong enough apparently and ended up collapsing in the room. The first one readied a charge and despite the small constraints it bolted towards them. Wraith stepped forwards and reared his fist back. There was a loud and defining crack as his fist collided, The monster had missed him by feet but Wraith's punch had left a sizable dent in its chest. Enough so that the gray skin was turning purple as the heart had ruptured and it collapsed, slowly dying.
He pulled out a very specific gun, it was a golden 5 shot revolver that over the years had served him well and had been upgraded numerous times before. Now it fired a round so obscenely powerful that it could Rival Alucard's guns easily. It was his tyrant killing Revolver, Nice had named it something ridiculous after she got her hands on it, Apathy, and Drebin liked the name after he got his hands on it, redubbing it the .338 Apathy. He walked over to the convulsing beast an aimed at the thing's head. The blast that came out of that gun sounded like a stick of dynamite, there was enough force from the recoil that despite the gun's design, it was pointed at about chest level now. The thing was dead, the top of it's skull completely splattered over everything in front of the pair.
