280 The Facility Part-2

Keitaro stood in front of some podium as he spoke, "Hello ladies and Gentleman, I hope you had a chance to sleep and get some rest?"

Someone from the back spoke, "Sir, you have been awake for last few days so did you?"

Keitaro nodded at that as he spoke, "Well I managed to get solid two hours of sleep, well enough of that the reason we are here is because of a mission of urgent importance now can anyone tell me what are the important characteristics of the 'wraiths'?"

At that the others looked at each other before one of them spoke, "Well wraiths are mad beasts that only know how to feed, and they are strong fast among many things."

Keitaro nodded at that as he spoke, "Well I would like to announce that you a very bad news first of all, until now the virus that caused the disease was only restricted to humans but a few hours ago it was confirmed that cross species transference was taking place and the it had already affected livestock, and with great regret I have to inform you gentleman that with all precautions by the various government of the world we had stopped the spread considerably as such even as 35% of our fellow brothers and sisters were lost we predicted that it would take at least 10 years for the fall of humanity but unfortunately since the recent discover it was lowered to a year at the very least."

He stopped talking as he watched the disclosure of the data had soon the room into complete cacophony he stood there in silence as he watched some of the best men and women breakdown in front to him, did he take pleasure from it, well a small part did but it was mainly to make sure that the vitality of the mission is hammered in their brain.

As such he slammed his hand hard on the podium as he shouted at them of his voice, "SILENCE!!!!!", his outburst caused people to be silent as he spoke, "Well now before you all further suffer depression let me share you a small piece of good news.", he then pressed a button on his laptop as a picture of a facility came into view.

Keitaro pointed at the facility as he spoke, "This facility is located at Egypy a few hours flight from here, the team under the careful guidance of the director of that place, Dr. Ismail had managed to make a concoction, the concoction upon being used on the 'wraith' makes them docile to the point they will as harmless as a domesticated cow, that means they will not actively for prey unlike before, and we believe that their research might shed some light on the cure."

The group of people who were being crushed by depressing and horrifying news suddenly felt some hope akin to a person who was previously drowning but now had managed to find a raft to stay afloat they suddenly cheered with joy, Keitaro sighed upon seeing that as he spoke, "Well it is indeed joyous news if we can mass produce it then at least we have some form of control on them but alas something terrible happen to them and they as a result went offline."

His words were like drenching some with cold water in winter season as Keitaro kept on speaking, "Dr. Ismail being a kind hearted person had opened his doors to the poor unfortunate victims of the pandemic and had been providing them with relief, but it turned out to be his undoing, one of those happened to be a religious nut job when he heard that they had been successful in making a concoction that would make the wraiths docile he led his followers and attacked the facility stating they were disobeying Gods mandate, unfortunately the facility fell under their attacks and if I am sure the people working there are all dead. But, but before they died they managed to place the research result as well as the contents in a secure vault."

He took a deep breath while letting the idea sink into everyone's head as the mission pictures and objectives were shown using a projector as he spoke again, "Well our objective is to secure that research and vials of medicine at all cost, they are the only thing that has shown us some hope, hope for a better tomorrow where we can go back to our daily life just like before, we can give future our children and their children a place to grow and thrive, now I will invite Captain Jenna, she will be the one to discuss the course of operations and what not, now Captain Jenna if you would please."

The person named Jenna the currently the person with highest rank present at their base took to the podium as she began speaking, "Well before I discuss the plan of the operation I would like to tell you beforehand that the research materials as well as the vials are our end goal and except them everyone is expendable, if anyone wants to leave now please feel to do so.", her eyes studied the face of individual who were present inside the conference room in total there were about hundred people there upon seeing that no one would want to leave, she spoke with small smile, "Well good, now for the plan I would like to say before I discuss the plan is that we do not know in what condition the base is it will be either crawling with wraiths or with those nutjobsas such you will have to treat everyone as hostile no matter their age, sex or gender, you task is to get in capture the package and get out nothing more nothing less no matter the cost."

At that everyone had a grim look on their face as Jenna went on with the explanation she then turned towards others specially her soldiers as she discussed various plans to them after which she spoke, "Now the thing is we have managed to get co-operation from the government of Egypt they will simply provide distraction and will not directly help us other than provide us with means of quick entry and exit as such make sure to keep your eyes and ears out for everything, now the number of people who will participate in this operation will be eight including me and Dr. Inazuma, we would like for all who want to volunteer to stand up, there will be one vacancy for a scientist and others are soldiers."

A couple hours later the group was sitting inside a C-17 Globemaster, as Keitaro was wearing a specially designed military gear built for such situation with a sidearm for protection he looked at the picture of his wife for one last time before tacking it safely inside his pouch as he closed his eyes for much needed sleep.
