Chapter 5: Segment Five, ‘Dreaded Escape’

'Sable's Pov'

The sounds of the base were in a loud disarray of erratic movements with voices and the bending of metal, along with tools screeching while in use. Her eyes were locked onto the man who she despised more than anything else in the world. She watched the two humans leave, while thrashing around loudly in her cage.

Sable's jaws shook with want, for she wanted to tear into that human who looked at her so smugly. The sound of his voice and his presence set her off like there was no tomorrow, and she wanted to kill him before doing anything else. Sure, she wanted freedom but there was something more that she craved. That was to kill that man with her own mouth and claws. 

She was not aware of what time it was, but she could care less as she circled her cage in annoyance. Her long front claws tapped against the hardened floor below her, while she chuffed impatiently. Her cranium soon snapped quickly to the side, as a young human male soon approached her cage.

Sable watched him closely as the guy began loading a powerful rifle, it was then she registered what he was about to do. He was about to tranquilize her, and her mind came alive with all kinds of ideas. Her lips shivered in delight as a crooked sneer came upon her lips.

The poor fool didn't even realize what she was about to do, and that was what made her smirk in such a way. This was her chance to escape her cage and be free. She would be able to kill everyone that stood before her and finally get her hands upon that man who she wanted to kill. Sable was quick to act cool, as she moved about in her cage. All the while watching the man closely as he lifted the rifle to take a shot.

Sable's hide shivered the moment he fired, and the feeling of the dart was a mere tap against her hide. He shot her on the side and she acted out in aggression, for she has done this before. In doing this, they can't figure her out. Which was pleasurable, especially to her.

Having her prey not knowing what was about to come, thrilled her. She couldn't wait to get out and cause havoc on this place that treated her poorly. She wanted to get out so badly, that it hurt but she must plan this out carefully. And carefully she shall. Sable turned her head to the side, so he couldn't see her face. The feeling of the second dart and then the third, made her eyes shift to the side in a quick glance. A ominous expression came across her features, for it was a matter of time.

Two more shots from the rifle, and finally she allowed herself to collapse onto the floor. Her chest was moving slowly, to make it seem like she was asleep. With her eyes closed, she felt her excitement rise within her when she heard the sound of her cage door opening. The thrill of this was incredible, and she would remember this. Quite firmly in fact. This idea of hers was stuck within her complex mind, for future use.

Sable was listening to the sounds from this man, for his heart was beating calmly to her strong ears. He honestly believed that he was safe. His voice yelled out loudly to another guy who responded calmly, these humans were completely blind to what was about to happen. Sable waited as the guy with the rifle stood in front of her face, her sharp eyes slowly began to open as she glanced up at him.

He was looking away, now was the time to strike. Sable was quick to move, so fast in fact that the guy didn't see it coming. One minute he was fine, then the next her mouth snapped fast onto the side of his face. Crushing his face in her jaws, did she soon drop him. Moving quickly she got out of her cage, with her mouth tainted in fresh blood. Looking up, she lunged quickly at another man who had his back turned to her.

The alarm was quick to enter her hearing, as so many humans with armor were called to subdue her. She showed no hesitation, and she showed no fear as she lunged at the many who stood in her way. Windows from up above the walls were letting the early morning light in, but this was a different morning from all the rest.

This was a bloody morning, just the way she liked it.

'Dr.Wu's Pov'

One minute it was fine and well, then the next minute did madness happen. The notorious scientist was quick to move from his office, and ran down to see what was happening. What he saw was something that he expected, though thought about it never happening in the slightest. For Hagan said that this place was secure, and it could handle his creation without any issues.

That was wrong however, for many of the people who were in armor were trying to subdue her. They were failing, but they were also persistent.

Shots from three different rifles were going off, trying to tranq her. While the many people on foot had shields to blunt the attack from her claws, while others were trying to lasso her limbs in hopes of knocking her off balance. It was a literal mess, and as he watched, he couldn't help but be impressed with her. Though, at the same time he was completely fearful of her.

Just the fact that she was out of her cage, scared him beyond belief. She could memorize the codes for the doors easily, and she could still get out of her cage without having to memorize anything. Just how much smarter could she get, he just had to ask himself that.

One man that had threw a lasso around her mouth, was sent tumbling to the floor for her tail whacked him squarely in the chest. The guys who had shields were struggling to help those who were being hit by her and her restless claws. Dr.Wu literally could feel his body shake as he watched this happen.

His creation was ruthless, and was memorizing what these people did. She was completely difficult to capture with lassoes now, and she even learned how to counter the shields for she would attack them differently than before. One man was sent to the floor while another was grabbed in her powerful jaws and sent flying across the room.

She couldn't be tamed and he could see that now, as one after another fell to her attacks. Dr.Wu was now keenly watching the guys who were shooting her now for that was his only saving grace. Heck, it was up to these guys to knock her out and regain the control that they lost.

Dr.Wu's eyes went wide as his creation ran right through the people, which in turn caused bodily harm and disoriented a few others. She was literally running toward him, which made him back up in fear. His heart raced violently, for the worst was yet to come. This creature that he gave life to, would attack him violently and he knew this.

She would sink her teeth into his flesh and pull his skin off with ease, for her fangs were the knives while his body was the easy to cut into cheese. It would be excruciatingly painful, but of course death was painful. As he watched he just prayed that it didn't last long, but logically he knew it would hurt.

Knowing her, she would play with him, which in turn would make him suffer. His creation loved to look into the eyes of those who she was killing, as she slowly tore him into literal shreds.

It was ironic really, for he brought her into this world and it would be she who would take him out of it. Dr.Wu gave a dark smile as that thought flooded his mind, and he closed his eyes slowly for he would accept his fate. She would kill him now and soon she would kill everyone else, and no one could stop her.

A strong impact slammed into him, his body was aching powerfully after the hit. His back hit the ground hard, as a loud barking cry came out of his creations mouth. Dr.Wu didn't dare to open his eyes, for if he did, he would see a large mouth full of razor sharp teeth. When nothing happened however, did he slowly open his eyes and look down at the face of his creation. The sight of her almost looked peaceful, and it took his racing mind to register that she was asleep.

The sheer shock of this discovery made him blink a few times, before laying his head back onto the hard floor as he let out a horribly weak laugh. Dr.Wu was wheezing as well, for he probably had a sprained rib or two after such a hard hit.

The sounds of his creation was deep and strong as she lays before him, her body was relaxed and motionless. Gagging a bit to her breath, Dr.Wu painfully looked up as a few gentlemen were all around him now. His eyes looked at each and every one of them, for they were looking at her with fearful eyes.

This then made him think, how on earth did this happen. He was certain that he was dead, and his creation didn't even look like she was about to change her mind, for she wanted to kill him. Dr.Wu cautiously and slowly moved out from under her, while a guy helped him up. The scientist was grateful for the help, and his eyes were quick to look down at the beast that lay on the floor before him.

Her sides and back were covered in darts, but one dart stood out from the rest. Dr.Wu looked at the dart for the color of it was a red color. He then recognized the dart, for it was a shocking tranquilizer dart. One of the most powerful tranqs that one could possibly ever use on a large animal.

Dr.Wu flinched a bit as a deep laughter filled the room, and as he lifted his head did he see Hagan walking forward with a fabricated sniper rifle. The man was smug as he approached the animal who was snoring on the floor.

"Phew! That was a rush huh!?!", laughed Hagan.

Dr.Wu was stunned by the timing, for if Hagan hadn't of fired the shot when he did, he would of been dead. The scientist was indebted to the man, though he still didn't like him and how he did things.

Hagan's laughter continued as he stood beside Dr.Wu, as a few people were moving his creation back into her cage. The damage that she had caused was quite great, for a few bodies were laying on the ground. She clearly killed a few people, while injuring a lot more.

"Doc, I got to say you are damn lucky!", chuckled Hagan.

Dr.Wu was trying to recover from the rush of all that had transpired, his eyes soon looked at Hagan as he replied as best as he could. "I don't know if luck has anything to do with it?"

Hagan smirked at him, as he then looks at the cage that held the animal that had gotten out. His eyes narrowed some as he smiled. "She's a maniac! But a priceless one!"

Dr.Wu looked at the cage that held his creation, his eyes slowly shifted to look at Hagan. He still didn't want Hagan to sell her off, for it was clear that the guy was not all there. The quicker that he could sell her off to the military, the better off he would be. Lord knows, he would rest up a whole lot more when the military had a hold of her.

"I need to mend my injuries.", groaned Dr.Wu who was slowly moving away. His arms were crossed around his chest, for the pain there was much worse than the pain in his back.

Hagan looked at him as he smirked, "Come with me doc! I got someone who can help ya!"

Dr.Wu hesitantly stopped as he looked at Hagan, and he groaned as he said. "Very well."

Hagan smirked as he walked, and right behind him was the scientist who looked to be in a whole lot of pain.

As they left, the people began working on trying to clean the place up. The damage that Dr.Wu's creature caused was fatally great, for quite a few people lost their lives in trying to capture her. The scientist of course knew this, and honestly he felt bad for it. But like Hagan had said, he was indeed responsible for her. He didn't need to be told it, he was already aware of it.

Each time that she does something, of course he was going to be blamed for it. It was just common sense. This was why he told the people, time after time again that she was dangerous. She was incredibly intelligent as well which just made her all the more dangerous.

Dr.Wu saw it in the many peoples eyes as they looked at her as she laid upon him, he could see that they were scared of her and for good reason. He was glad that they were afraid of her, but why was it that Hagan didn't see the danger. Why was he so against it, that just didn't make sense.

Speaking of Hagan he stopped in front of a door and knocked on it which interrupted his thoughts. Dr.Wu looked up curiously, and as the door opened did he blink a few times when he saw a woman who was dressed casually. Her hair was brown with blonde highlights, and she had simple glasses on that were over her brown eyes.

Hagan smirked as he looked at Dr.Wu. "He got in a bit of a scuffle?"

The lady smiled kindly, as she moved her right hand out for a polite hand shake. "I'm Lenore, it be a pleasure."

"Dr. Henry Wu.", politely spoke the scientist as best as he could. The pain in his chest hurt a whole lot more when he shook her hand with his own.

Hagan smirked as he walked away, "Take care of him, will ya?"

"Yep, leave it to me.", replied Lenore as she waved the scientist into her room which was full of medical posters and tools. She definitely was a doctor from what he could tell, but then this begged the question. Why was she here, she seemed rather nice to be in a place such as this.

"What hurts you?", soon asked Lenore as she looked at him.

Dr.Wu groaned a bit before looking at her, "My chest hurts, I don't know if you know this but I have a dangerous animal here?"

Lenore looked at his chest as she touched it she then soon replied, "I'm aware? From what I heard it didn't sound like any animal that I have ever heard?"

Dr.Wu winced and grimaced in pain, "I made this animal and she got out, she tackled me pretty good earlier."

Lenore looked at him in surprise, she then said. "I may have to take a X-ray? Could be possible that you got a few broken ribs."

Dr.Wu frowned upon hearing the news, that was something he didn't want to hear. He of course thought that he sprained his ribs, but the chance of having them broken was something he didn't expect. It was a possibility sure but he didn't want it to be true.

With broken ribs he wouldn't be able to do much, which was something he was not looking forward too. He had so much work to do, and so little time to do it.

"How long will the X-ray take?", he asked curiously.

Lenore looked at him as she got her things together, she then looked at him. "Not long at all."

Dr.Wu sighed but he nodded, and so he went through the process of getting his chest looked at. The process was not as long as he thought, it was over and done with fairly quickly but the news waiting for him was something that made him scowl.

Lenore held up the scans of the X-ray, and she looked at him as she said. "You got three broken ribs, course they are hairline fractures."

Dr.Wu sat there while frowning, this was not the news that he wanted. But from how hard his creation ran into him earlier, he knew that there was a chance that he broke a bone or two.

"I'm going to help you take care of it, and with any luck you be better before you know it.", smiled Lenore as she got her things together to help him.

"Thank you.", replied the scientist as he touched his chest with a face full of pain.

'Sable's Pov'

Waking up in her cage, her eyes were narrowed in her rage. She slowly lifted her head as she looked around, her maw shook greatly in her anger. She had it, she had gotten out and was able to attack those who were before her only then to lose it.

She missed her chance to kill her creator as well as not being able to kill the man who she wanted to rip to shreds. All these missed opportunities made her visibly angry, as she stood up onto her four limbs. Sable was outraged as her eyes burned in her rage, she then shifted her head to take notice of someone walking by her cage.

It was who she wanted to kill, and as he sneered at her smugly did it set her off as she lunged at him. His laughter was quick to echo out around her as he walked away, while she screamed violently in her aggressiveness. She wanted out, and she wanted to end him.

Sable was going to make sure of it, and when it happens was she going to thoroughly enjoy it.
