Chapter 31 - Psycho Vibes(2)

(Berlin, Germany - 8:25 PM)

Kreig was jumping from rooftop to rooftop, keeping himself away from public eyes. Reasons were because one he could not risk anybody spotting him and telling authorities, two he had no idea where he was and three he didn't know who to trust since he knew nobody here. 

Kreig then jumps once again and lands on the rooftop of another building before looking down the building and sees an alleyway with a woman lying on the ground. 

[What's wrong with her?]

"I SMELL HUNGER IN THE ATMOSPHERE!!!"

[What do you mean there's something else down there?]

Kreig then looks down and spots a creature lifting the woman up by the collar. It was 966. 

"IT'S TIME TO GRIND SOME BONES!!!"

966 has been after this woman for quite some time, making her sleep deprived using its abilities. 

966 was about to cut her down with his claws, until he heard a sound behind him and saw a purple humanoid with a buzzsaw axe. 

[What the hell are you?]

966 let out a growl before dropping the woman and becoming invisible, surprising the two Krieg personalities. 

[And I thought Zero was the only one.] Kreig looked around but saw nothing and since the 966 was invisible he had no idea from where he would attack. 

Not until Kreig felt something breathing behind him, and so he quickly turned around and swung his axe horizontally, cutting 966's head clean off his body, going limp as its head and body became visible again.

"I AM PLEASED BY THE CARNAGE!!!"

[Yeah, yeah, you're happy, I get it. But still what the hell is this thing? I've seen more weirder things back at Pandora and other planets but this is just something else. Seems like this planet has some weird stuff as well.] 

Kreig kneels next to the woman and checks her pulse. She was still alive but was asleep due to the sleep deprivation. 

[Well she's safe but it seems like she hasn't slept for days. Could explain why that thing found her as an easy target.] Kreig looks around and spots no one else, so he quickly carries her bridal style and exits the alleyway before placing her next to a car so that someone would find her. 

Kreig then returns to the alleyway and hides behind a trash bin, looking at the unconscious woman, waiting for someone to find her. 

Two minutes passed, and finally at least three people found her and one tried to call an ambulance with his phone, while the other two were trying to wake her up. 

Kreig, now knowing that she's safe, quickly climbs up a maintenance ladder, reaches the top of the building and continues to jump from rooftop to rooftop. 

(9 minutes later) 

[Now where the hell am I?]

Unfortunately since Krieg had no idea where to go and without his echo device, he unfortunately found himself at the docks of all places.

"SWIMMING WITH THE FISHES!!!!"

[Yeah it's a dock alright.]

Kreig then jumps on top of a container and looks around, only to spot no one. This only made things more suspicious. 

[I don't get why no one guards this place. I mean every place the crimson raiders went to, we would always find some sort of opposition, but this place... somethings up.]

Krieg kneeled down and observed the area, looking around for a moment before he or they saw some men who were wearing Chaos Insurgency (CI) soldier uniforms.

[Same clothing, like that guy back in the forest.] Krieg then spotted one of CI soldiers unloading some crates, as he started opening them, the two Kreigs saw a buttload of weapons 

"LOOT!!! FINALLY WE ARE WHOLE ONCE AGAIN!!"

[Yeah, but the weaponry they have it's definitely not from any mega corporation, but who says we can't loot them.]

Kreig then jumps on top of another container and heads for the soldiers.

Meanwhile the soldiers were checking the weapons they were unloading while some were keeping watch.

"Hey dude." One CI Soldier says.

"Yeah?"

"Why do you think nobody shows up at these docks?"

"Remember how the SCP Foundation purchases buildings and other properties to keep the anomalies in those places contained."

"Yeah."

"Pretty much we purchased these docks and now the chaos insurgency owns it. Simple as that.

"No wonder why we're able to get so many anomalies and weapons shifted from this place without any civilian or foundation member finding out."

Kreig was now hiding behind a container looking at the two soldiers who were talking with each other before he started approaching them. And since krieg isn't the stealthy type most of the time he decides to go for a direct head on approach. 

And so, the two soldiers noticed something running towards them with a buzzsaw axe. 

"What in the wor-?"

=====================================

=====================================

Before one of the CI soldiers uttered a word, Kreig jumps towards the two soldiers and swings his buzzsaw axe, slitting both of their throats at same time and dropping to the ground dead. 

As he landed, he quickly grabbed an LWRC AR-15 rifle from one of the crates and shot three more soldiers dead before they could do anything. 

[Well that was easier than I expected.] Kreig then turned around and saw ten more CI soldiers, holding electric batons and all were approaching him. 

"Contain that thing." The CI Soldier in the middle said in anger.

The soldiers then start running towards him, Kreig drops the rifle, picks up his axe and runs towards them. 

One soldier did a thrust attack but Krieg dodges it and punches the back of his head knocking him to the ground. Kreig then does an upward swing on a soldier with his axe making a vertical slash mark on his chest before he quickly grabs him by the throat and throws him towards another soldier knocking him out. 

Two soldiers tried to attack him at the same time, but he quickly throws his axe on one soldier with the axe hits the soldier head embedding, the buzzsaw into his skull and then quickly punches the other soldier to the ground before he removes the axe from the soldiers head that he threw at and then does a downward swing on one soldiers head with the axe, splitting his head in two like a watermelon. 

The other five soldiers looked in shock while Kreig's psycho side was enjoying himself. 

"I AM HERE FOR THE RIB CAGE SLAUGHTER!!!" Kreig looked at the other five soldiers before he saw purple smoke surrounding him. He looked at his right fist and saw that one of the three yellow bulbs were broken. 

This was the flesh eating virus.

[What the hell is this?]

But then, the corner of his eyes spotted three seagulls flying in the sky, suddenly when they were in a certain range of the virus, within seconds, they decomposed and fell to the ground dead right in front of Kreig and the five soldiers. 

[Now that's just messed up on so many levels.]

Learning what they just saw, the soldiers immediately had their gas mask helmets on so it wouldn't be a problem. 

The five soldiers saw Kreig rushing towards them and before he could move, Kreig punched a hole right through one of the soldiers chest with his fist, killing him instantly as the virus started decomposing his flesh due to the hole in it. 

The other four soldiers then hit him with their electric batons electrocuting him.

"AHHHHH!"

[Ahhhhh!]

Both Kreigs yelled out in pain.

Now enraged, Kreig quickly cuts one soldiers head off with his axe and then grabs his baton before electrocutes another soldier and kicks him away and then does a vertical slash on one soldiers right arm and instantly cuts his arm off with the soldier fell to the ground yelling in pain on the loss of his arm. 

Now only one soldier was left, Kreig's psycho side looks at the soldier with a deadly glare.

The soldier dropped his baton and looked at him with fear. Not before long when Kreig punched his face, shattering his gas mask in the process and knocking him to the ground, the soldier's face started to decompose due to exposure to the virus. 

The soldier started yelling in pain and started coughing out blood from his mouth. 

[Whatever this purple smoke is, it's quite the killer.] He, or they then headed for the weapon crates and opened one of them, but then they heard something behind them. 

Kreig turned around and saw at least three military Humvees with CI soldiers manning the turrets with over thirty CI soldiers with their weapons pointed at him. Kreig looked at the crate he opened again and saw something useful. 

"Blast it!"

The CI soldiers opened fire, but Krieg took the two weapons he saw and quickly took cover behind the crates. 

The soldiers kept on firing until the soldier shouted.

"Hold your fire!"

The soldiers stopped, giving thus an opportunity, Kreig comes out of cover holding two fucking M60 machine guns on both his hands, both aiming at the CI units.

"What the hell are you?"

"[I'm YoUr WoRsT nIgHtMaRe!!!]" Both Kreig personalities spoke up in unison.

In the next second, Kreig pulls the trigger on both the machine guns, gunning down every CI soldier, especially the ones manning the Humvees turret like a happy trigger maniac.

"HAHAHAHAHA!! CRY SOME MORE!!!"

The CI soldiers couldn't even do anything at all as they were being gunned down easily. Three CI soldiers appear on top of some crates close to Krieg's location and they start firing at him. 

One of the bullets pierced Kreig's right leg, making him fall on one knee. He saw the three soldiers, so he quickly pointed the machine guns at them and shot them down with three soldiers falling off the containers to the ground dead.

[Son of a bitch. That really hurt.]

(Music Stops) 

Kreig then stood up and saw the massacre he committed in front of him. Every single Chaos Insurgency Soldier died or brutally injured and hell some of their limbs got shredded instantly due to the machine guns. 

This was nothing new to Kreig since he's killed skags, bandits, mega corporation soldiers, vault guardians and a buttload of other things in his mayhem filled life. 

Kreig then noticed the purple smoke around him started fading away, the broken bulb on his right fist detached itself and fell on the ground, shattering into pieces. 

"WE ARE THE AGENTS OF CHAOS!!!"

[Yeah, that was really fun.]

Krieg stood up from the ground and even though the bullet pierced his leg he decided to check the crates again, expecting to find something that is until... a spotlight shines on him.

[Now what?!] Kreig looked up and saw a Chinook helicopter flashing its spotlight on him, then the ramp of the helicopter opened and multiple ropes came down from it.

About twenty Mobile Task Force soldiers started rappelling down the ropes and reached the ground before they detached the ropes from around their waist and then aimed their weapons at him. 

The MTFs looked at the injured and deceased bodies of the CI soldiers lying on the ground with some of the soldiers seeming to be decomposing or having melted into paste. 

"My god." One of the Mobile Task Force units said with a German accent.

Another MTF soldier looked at his men, "Get a medical team and-"

He was then cut off by the voice of an all too familiar person. 

"Sir, hold up." Carson spoke up.

"What is it, Agent Carson?" He said in an annoyed tone.

"Look, I suggest you keep your distance from that entity. Otherwise you might die a very slow, miserable and painful death... ok not the way I wanted to say it but yeah keep your distance."

"Oh! So you have knowledge about that thing."

"Yes, I do. See those yellow bulbs on his hands." 

"Yes I see them."

"Well, they contain a very very very deadly virus, that if unleashed we will start to decompose, melt you in 30 seconds and pretty much die a horrible gruesome death. Believe me, it's not a pretty way to die." Carson said both seriously and a bit sarcastically.

"Is that so? Alright Carson, contact the biohazard team through your comms and the medical team as well."

"Alrighty sir." 

Carson then starts contacting the two teams, while the German MTF unit looks at the purple humanoid with curiosity and a tiny bit of fear due to what Carson mentioned regarding the virus. 

Knowing they were not being aggressive towards him, Krieg then calmed down as he was already exhausted so he sat on the ground with his back against the crates while holding his buzzsaw axe. 

[Quite the evening we had together.]

"WE ARE TWO STRINGS ATTACHED TOGETHER AND SHALL NEVER BREAK APART!!!"

[Yep.]

(Site-19, Testing Chamber, America - 3:00 PM) 

Rodeo was inside a testing chamber along with Dr. Amelia Buck and Evan who were looking at Rodeo. The test was to check Sheer Heart Attack's way of moving and test its power as well, even though Amelia and Evan know what it can do, but since the foundation wants some research data so they are doing it. 

"Alright now to-" Rodeo's sentence immediately gets cut off by his phone ringing. He sighs and picks up the call and puts it next to his ear, "Hello. 

[Yo, kid it's your buddy Carson.]

"Ah! Carson. What's the occasion for calling me?"

[Uhhh, we found a Stand in Berlin.]

Hearing this info, Rodeo then looks at Amelia and Evan.

"Guys, Carson just found a STAND in Berlin."

"Finally, he did something useful." Says Amelia.

"Hey dude, ask him which Stand he found." Evan told Rodeo for answers.

"Hey Carson, which Stand is it?"

"...Purple Haze."

Rodeo then went dead silent.

"WHAT!?!"

"Dude! You don't have to yell like that." Evan complained.

"Carson found Purple Haze."

"WHAT?!!"

"Carson, keep your distance from the virus and if any of the bulbs fall off of purple haze's hand make sure they don't shatter." Rodeo said in a serious tone. 

[I know. One more thing, he is also calling himself Krieg the Psycho.]

"..."

[Uhh, Rodeo? You there buddy.]

"Carson, I'll call you back."

"Ok then."

The call then ends.

"Uhh, Rodeo, did he tell you anything else regarding Purple Haze?" Evan questioned.

"Yeah, you know Krieg the Psycho? He has become Purple Haze."

"..."

"..."

Couldn't understand the silence, Amelia asked, "Can you explain to me what's going on?" 

For a brief silence, Rodeo answers, "Well they found Purple Haze and the guy who has become it... is a video game character."

"...I'm sorry, what?"

(Site-54, Leipzig, Germany - 9:30 PM)

Kreig was inside a big containment cell, with at least ten Mobile Task Force units wearing hazmat suits and carrying assault rifles pointed at him.

[Well, this is quite the kindness they're giving to us.]
