  1. [May 29, 2166]
  2. [Executive Laboratory - Sub-level 9]
  3. [STRQ Industries Mobile Oceanic Rig]
  4. [Arctic Ocean]
  5. [Open Territory - G.U.D.]

  7. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  8.  
  9. One disaster follows another, but unlike the last incident, this one won't be as easily recovered from.
  10.  
  11. Within what remains of the Executive Laboratory, the now leaderless containment team, Eobard Thawne, and Daisy Zaibo are left to gather their bearings after having witnessed the monstrously powerful Gamera rip through the entirety of the Ocean Crawler to eliminate the single Gyaos that had awoken from one of the facility's many P.E.M.F. spawning pods.
  12.  
  13.  
  14. (Daisy Zaibo): Was that Gamera?! DID HE JUST FUCKING RIP THROUGH THE PLACE?!
  15.  
  16. (Eobard Thawne): Daisy, calm dow--
  17.  
  18. (Daisy Zaibo): CALM DOWN?! HE JUST TORE A GODDAMN HOLE IN THE LARGEST MOBILE RESEARCH FACILITY IN THE WORLD!! THIS THING HAS TO BE EVACUATED!!
  19.  
  20. (Eobard Thawne): I'm sure it's not as bad as--
  21.  
  22.  
  23. Emergency sirens start blaring, and the security squad immediately evacuates from the premises,; they're followed by other employees. They've clearly prepared for such a scenario, despite the low probability of it occurring in the first place. However, what really sends everyone into a panic is the sudden rumbling felt throughout the Ocean Crawler.
  24.  
  25. The entire complex is falling apart and sinking into the cold depths below.
  26.  
  27.  
  28. (Daisy Zaibo): Uncle, we have to get as many people as possible off this boat.
  29.  
  30. (Eobard Thawne): Agreed. I'll use my super speed to round up everyone on this floor and others, you get back to Hargrove.
  31.  
  32. (Daisy Zaibo): Hargrove? Why do I need to--
  33.  
  34.  
  35. All of a sudden, an explosion of flames and plasma bursts from the left wall, collapsing it entirely and sending Thawne and Zaibo flying back from the shock wave. If it weren't for the fact that they had the perks of being extraordinarily strong Post-Humans, they very likely would've been crushed completely by the concussive force.
  36.

  38.  
  39. [Arctic Ocean]
  40.  
  41. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  42.  
  43. In the skies above, the titular Atlantean monster himself hovers above the slowly destabilizing research complex, eyeing it with a ferocious gaze. Without warning, he lets loose a fusion burst of energy that impacts the side of the Ocean Crawler; Gamera sporadically fires off more plasma fireballs at the collapsing structure, although he carefully adjusts his aim.
  44.  
  45. It's clear that the giant turtle doesn't intend on sinking STRQ Industries' prized pig outright, as he could've easily done it by now. Instead, he seems to be firing off his shots with a sort of surgical precision, or at least as precise as one could get with giant spheres of nuclear fusion tuned to a lower energy threshold to avoid causing too much collateral damage, hard as it is to imagine with the destruction already caused.

  49. [Hargreave's Room - Sub-level 10]
  50. [STRQ Industries Mobile Oceanic Rig]
  51.  
  52. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  53.  
  54. Daisy Zaibo rushes into the private room of STRQ Industries' founder and finds the Android-bodied old man sitting in his chair calmly, despite the walls and ceiling coming down all around him.
  55.  
  56.  
  57. (Daisy Zaibo): HARGROVE! WE HAVE TO MOVE! THIS PLACE IS COMING DOWN!
  58.  
  59. (Jacob Hargrove): I have lived for over a century, preserved by technology, only to have it backfire on me in the end.
  60.  
  61. (Daisy Zaibo): Forget it, I'll carry you if I have to!
  62.  
  63.  
  64. The C.D.F. Marine in training runs over to Hargrove and tosses him over her shoulder; his weight is quite straining, even for the abnormally strong Post-Human woman, but she powers through, managing a quick jog out of the office and into the emergency elevator. As the two enter the elevator, a fusion burst explodes within the room, collapsing the walls and sealing the whole area up.

  68. [Flight Deck]
  69. [STRQ Industries Mobile Oceanic Rig]
  70.  
  71. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  72.  
  73. Atop the sinking research facility is what remains of the flight deck. There are very few capable aircraft left, as the rest have either been destroyed by Gamera's assault or already left with evacuees. One transport carrier remains of those aircraft, only having a pilot and Eobard Thawne on board currently.
  74.  
  75.  
  76. (Pilot Omar Shah): I'm sorry, sir, but I have to take off now!
  77.  
  78. (Eobard Thawne): Just hold on a little longer! *whispering* Come on, Daisy, come on......
  79.  
  80.  
  81. The pilot is eager to get off the destabilizing complex, and with good reason. Besides the already unstable conditions to begin with, Gamera appears to sense that something is different and has begun to restrain his attacks less and less, causing an escalating amount of destruction to the already heavily damaged Ocean Crawler. Finally, one of the few remaining elevators opens up, revealing Daisy Zaibo carrying Jacob Hargrove over her shoulder.
  82.  
  83. A fusion bursts lands less than a hundred meters away from the transport ship, prompting the pilot to start the engine.
  84.  
  85.  
  86. (Eobard Thawne): JUST WAIT!
  87.  
  88. (Pilot Omar Shah): I'm sorry, sir, but we have to leave RIGHT FUCKING NOW!
  89.  
  90. (Eobard Thawne): GODDAMMIT!
  91.  
  92.  
  93. With a burst of adrenaline, Eobard Thawne really puts his powers to work, rushing Daisy to the aircraft, grabbing Hargrove before he even has time to complete his fall to the ground, and securing everyone's seats. With all the passengers now firmly secured on the transport carrier, the pilot lifts off, narrowly avoiding another nuclear fusion burst that explodes behind them.
  94.  
  95. Gamera looks at the escaping airship and nods to himself for some strange reason. Perhaps to confirm that the research facility is indeed empty of all its remaining personnel? Whatever the case may be, the titanic guardian monster refocuses his attention on the sinking Ocean Crawler.
  96.  
  97. With one final, deep breath, the Chelonian titan emits a gigantic burst of plasma and fire that completely obliterates what remains of the complex, sending it down into the depths of the ocean in pieces.
