Emu was still unconscious at the time so he was working on   \nslowly, quietly freeing himself. He was sweating, almost panicking, while he was wondering if they   \ncould see in from outside.  \n  \nHe had cut through both his bonds, and was working up the nerve to stand up, when there was a quiet   \nbeep. The door was opening, he had less than one second to conceal the knife. A scientist dressed   \nin a long white lab coat walked in and approached Korm. As he got closer, Korm was laying still and   \nwhen he was next to the bed he pulled out\u0026nbsp; a syringe and bent forward to tap its air bubbles out.   \nAnd as he bent forward to inject Korm, he sprang up and in a fraction of a second, he had the knife   \nto the scientists neck and was whispering in his ear.\n\nSeconds later Korm was untied and the scientist was unconscious. Korm walked across the room and   \nunstrapped Emu. He gently shook her to try to wake her and then proceeded to the door. Both he and   \nEmu crept from the room using the scientists' security card, they moved quietly and quickly through   \nthe darkened corridors, they followed their memories of the Lab, and moved down towards the armory   \nstations.\n\n\u0026nbsp; Once they reached the armory they tried the scientists card on the door.   \nThey instantly regretted it. Alarms went off, every conceivable noise and light seemed to flood   \n  \nTheir senses as all the corridors were lit up.   \n  \n\"Shit!\" Korm had already started running, and Emu was right behind him as the first guard rounded   \nthe corner.  \n  \nEmu launched herself at the guard in an animalistic manner that reminded Korm of Tacita in his   \ndream. In less than a second, and without more than a gasp from the guard he was dead. When Emu   \ncame up, she handed Korm a pistol and took the guards small sub-machine gun, his card and his stun   \nbaton.  \n  \nThey had to go, they had to leave project Mythos and the Director behind. They sprinted down the   \ncorridors of the Lab towards the underground rail system, hoping to get to the X-Rail and then back   \nto the Lab.  \n  \nThey rounded a left turn, then a right turn, and then they ducked into a room as they heard several   \nsets of boots coming towards them. Korm crouched down and peaked around the bottom of the door   \nframe.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Four guards, all dressed in military uniforms with no name tags or rank badges all wearing big   \nblack combat boots and sporting crew cut hair do's were crashing down the corridors two at a time,   \none group moved up while the other covered, then the next leap frogged.   \n  \nKorm motioned to Emu to pass him the SMG, and then he pulled the clip from the pistol and emptied   \nthe bullets out into his hand. He rolled the nine pistol bullets out into the hallway and heard the   \nguards stop once they saw them. He strained his ears and listened to the creak of heavy leather   \nboots as they tried to sneak up the hallway.   \n  \nOnce he judged that one group had stopped, he listened for the second group waiting for them to be   \nin line with the other two men as they leap frogged down towards them. He heard the whisper of   \ncloth on cloth, and the creak of boots again, then he peaked and sprayed.  \n  \nThree of them men went down before they even saw him, as the SMG unloaded its 25 round clip in just   \na few seconds, the last guard was hit but not killed. Korm knew this because he could hear the man   \ngroaning.\n\nThe only thing he heard from Emu was an appreciative noise and a quiet 'ok' when he told her to   \nmove up.\n\n\u0026nbsp; Three minutes later they were just outside the door that led to the X-rail system, and when they   \nopened it, it was like a dream come true.\n\nIn front of them stood thirty people, men and women, dressed in black outfits all wearing shiny   \nblack face masks, all wielding the MP5-S machine guns, all ready to storm the false LAB, all lead   \nby a smiling man who only had to say one word.  \n  \n\"Go.\"  \n\u0026nbsp;\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Genetic Children","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/117675-genetic-children-log-20-loss-in-both-worlds.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/132397-genetic-children-log-24-the-wife-to-be.json"}}
