TAC tac tac tac TAC!

The sound of my fingers dancing skillfully over the plastic keys echoed through the quiet room. I worked dillegently against the clock to corrupt the evidence. The first of the morning crew would awaken soon enough to take a look at the other subjects in the room and if there was even a whiff of foul play then I could kiss my ass goodbye. "Grr. Why cant I say no to a pretty face" I said, cursing myself as I scratched my head furiously.

TAC. Tac

"Damn it, another mistake" I said frustrated with myself. Being this Stressed out and strung out on caffeine wasnt helping matters much was it. I i fought a losing battle with My shaky hands to press the proper keys, but I wasnt cut out for this kind of stress and she knew that.

TAC. Tac. Tac.

"There we go..." I murmured, as I finally finished changing the logs. "...and now there was a power failure in test a" i said proudly as i moved on to hiding 0173s existence. The keyboard clicking rapidly as i successfully pasted the deceased 0165's profile over 0173. I began to drum roll on the desk with my boney fingers as I announced, "And now youre 0165". I stared down at the sceen, my chest truimphly pumped out as i admired my patch work. The once darkened 0165 tab was now vividly green as if he had never turned. My cover was flawless down to the smallest milli-pixel. Telling myself not to get to cocky, i began to sift through the footage of the nights event.

Click. Tac tac. Click. Click

The sound of my fingers one again speeding across the board as I clicked through. Editing out anything that could incriminate us when the sun rose. This hurdle wasn't as simple as deleting a clip or two. I had to manually go through and cut several hours from a whooping 300 videos feeds. My eyes already became increasingly heavy and brgam to sting as I pressed on.

I stretched, Every fiber of my being damanding me to stop .I took a glance at The screen above me. The screen minutes before was buzzing with action. As 0173 once again had desperately scrapped away from the claws of death. He had managed to crawl away from the carnage leaving a twin trail of blood. his body now sprawled motionless on its back starring up at the false artic sky. A beeping noise alerting to the lack of motion as it switched to subject 0168.

hisssss.

The once little boy was now the size of a full grown man. His crpuched body lost to the snow leapord mutation, now perched over the body of his downed prey. his jaws now developed around the grotesque mutated body of a dall sheep. Its back plated with keratin scales curving over its back like some makeshift armor. The fleece of it body had become matted now flowing under each plate. Giant spikes had grown from each elbow to pierce any Who dare to attack from above. its head sported an extra two horns curiving down over its neck. The pair forming a spiked helmet. However, even with all that armor it was no match for the demonic beast that 0168 had become.

Baaaaaa......

its screams died out in an instant as he crunched down on its neck. Its body falling lifeless as he twisted its head clean off with one swift motion. Blood streaming from its neck as 0168 Plopped the sheep down on the snowy rock of the mountain pass. Flipping it over on its back to expose its unarmored fluffy underbelly. His claws plunged into its chest ripping it apart pansacking the poor sheeps corpse.

Purr.

His chest vibrating continiously in glee, while His muzzle greedily pulled out a grizzly mass of crimson flesh that was its liver. slurping the meat down whole as Blood splattered over the rocky pass. The edge of the ravenne painted red with every mouthful. The rest of its flock herded together in a dome of pointed scales on the opposite side of the gorge that formed the fake mountain pass. 0168 paused for a spell scanning the makeshift dome from across the way. Looking for a chink in their armor, he began to make his move. With a powerful thrust he launched himself, crossing the vast ravine with ease. Landing gracefully next to the mutant all you can eat buffet. He pulled himself back to his two arched feet raising his claws menacingly to startle the heard. he viciously swiped his 3 ft razor sharp claws with blistering speed . Sparks flying as blood sprayed the air. The injured sheep startled took a step back as He forced his talons between the cracks he made pulling them apart with a truimpet purr, announcing that the end was near. The sheeps helpless as he one by one swatted away their remains.

I grinned rubbing my face in amusement, "youre just a fucking beast arent you". Knowing that if 0173 ever got off his ass and made it to him his fate would be sealed. "It would be my luck. why did i even bother making you look alive". My mind wandering to a daydream of 0173s head lobbed off rolling down the rocky cliffs of the ravin. His teeth and jaw splintering away in a mesh of gore and bone with each slam against the artificial walls.

flinching as i snaped back to reality i got back to work, blissfully unaware that the door to my workspace was no longer closed. an observer peered through the cracked door studying me curiously as i murmured to myself. The figure Amused that i was unaware that i was no longer alone.​
