Day 37 Beta. Zeta. Iota. Nine. Rex opened his eyes to see Dr. Varience hovering over him once more. "Morning Dr. Varience." The doctor scanned Rex in dead silence and at a very swift pace. He looked tired and also very agitated. His grip on the pad made his knuckles turn white. "Dr. Varience?... Dr. Varience?" "They can't deny my work." The doctor mumbled. "I'll show them what you can really do." Rex felt uneasy about this and tried to get up. His body was locked into place. "I'm not very...." "I'll show them. I'll show them what you can really do!" He slammed the pad on the desk next to the table and speed walked out the door. Rex tried several more times to move but failed. He was beginning to lose hope but he saw Katherine and her favorite green dress standing outside of the door. "Katherine Varience! Come here!" She looked down the hallway several times and opened the door. She walked over to him. "Looks like your stuck or something." "Yes I realized... now please help me out here. You see the computer?" She looked at the screen next to the charging station. "This one?" "Yea. There should be a long series of codes and such, I need you to find something called 'Master Prompt'." She looked at the screen closely. "I see it!" "Good. Now erase the code and type in something else." "How do I do that?..." "Hit the backspace key and type in something." "Ok...." She hit the key once and typed. "R.. E... X... X... Y... There!" "No no no! You were supposed to delete all that was there and do something that I remember!" "I call you that all the time..." "And?!" "Ok ok fine." Before she could try to fix it, Dr. Varience walked through the door with several men in business suits. His eyes burned a very dark anger. His jaw was clenched as he spoke to Katherine. "What are you doing here Katherine?" She paled. "I... I was... just... talking to... Rexxy..." He calmly walked over to her and grabbed her neck. To the men it looked like a simple grab, but the later bruising would prove otherwise. "What did I say about playing with my work. It's expensive and you could break it." "I'm... sorry.... Daddy..." She tried not to wince to incur his wrath more. "Now go on back to the room and stay there till I get back. Understood?" She nodded slightly and left her father's grip. She paused infront of the business men, curtsied slightly. "I'm sorry..." Then she left and closed the door. One of the business men spoke up. "You should consider doing something less... Haphazard with a curious girl like that." The doctors eyes burned a brighter anger but he cooled down. He turned to the men and gave a forced smile. "I'll just change the password when this meeting is over. She likes to see what I create is all." "Atleast she shows an interest in her father's work, you raised our future scientist well Varience." The one in the middle spoke, he had slightly more authority than the other two. "She'd be better off in the other departments than mine but yes, she is raised well." He turned towards Rex and gave a sickening look at the screen. "Alright gentlemen I will present to you my latest creation." He punched in a line of code that released Rex from his station and silence his communication links. "Alright Rex-5742, stand up please." Rex was forced to oblige. He stood silently as he watched the business men. "Can it speak?" The one on the left asked. "No, unfortunately the vocal processor is malfunctioning currently but that is a small matter I can fix in a few minutes." "Then fix it." Dr. Varience gave a nervous laugh. "I assure you, you will want to see what his main purpose is first. He's still a prototype after all." The one on the left gave a suspicious look but the one in the middle waved Varience on. "Continue then." Dr. Varience nodded and looked at Rex. "Alright Rex, initiated Theta-23." Rex ran his algorithms slowly and produced what Varience wanted. It was an image of another combat uniform and he was cloaked in it perfectly. The men nodded as Varience continued. "Now initiate Alpha mark one dot three. Execute hostile targets. Three dead ahead." Rex felt his algorithms go blank as his body reacted to the order. He dismembered one executive and crashed another into a wall. The last one went pale. "What... what are you doing Varience!" The doctors eyes were cold and dim. "You shouldn't have made fun of me at the convention. Now you won't be laughing anymore." The executives scream was cut off as Rex concaved his face into a desk. The doctor laughed. "Noone will be laughing at me anymore! Rex! Initiate Alpha mark one dot three. Execute all other life forms within the area and scrap the Project Arc model." Rex tried to stop himself but his body was propelled forward by the insatiable blood lust of the doctor. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/154299744/0/0 link to part 3 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/168534745/0/0 link to part 5
