Fun and games in the 501st

The eggshells

There was a loud crash and Hardcase woke up in an instant. He bolted his head up only to smack his head on the top bunk.
"OW!" Jesse was going to kill him if he woke him up again.
But Jesse didn't stir.
Actually nobody stirred, he looked around the room and there was nobody there.
"Guys?" he carefully removed himself from the bed and looked back down.
Kee Kah and Thorin were also gone.
"Oh god is Thorin giving birth?!" he sprinted out of the room and through the hallway to the medbay. The Red tinsel seemed to be oddly mushed into the Walls.
"Guys?!"
It was deathly silent. He grabbed a scalpel on the side table next to the door and creeped into the room.
"Anyone?" he looked through all of the rooms.
Nobody.
As a last resort he decided to try Kix's office.
"Kixy boo please where-" Hardcase dropped his scalpel.
Kix was mangled up in his chair with a terrified look on what was left of his face. The blood was mixed with blue giving a sick purple that was spread across the walls and left out the door in a trail.
Hardcase had played enough video games to know that he had to follow the trail whether he liked it or not.

"Eggshells.... Eggshells...." a distorted voice called out to him.
The voice seemed familiar but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. A glitching chef droid perhaps?
He giggled a little, possibly going insane.
"Yeah. Funny guys. Have a food fight with ketchup?! Ya gonna have to do better than- woah!" he tripped over something, fell directly on top of it and thought he was going to gag.
His face slammed right into Jesse's corpse.
"OH KRIFFING HELL! YOU DIE AND I KRIFFING SLEEP THROUGH IT FOR KRIFF SAKE JESSE I HATE YOU!"
This was no joke. Everybody really was dead. He was the last one. No. No time to mourn. There's a monster to kill!

Across his forehead he felt something cold, soaking wet in fact. It felt so surreal...
He caught the debris in his shaking, brother bloodied gloves.
Someone had thrown an egg at him. Bit if an odd choice of weapon considering the others were mangled but oh well.
"Jesse you better not have died to an egg." he mumbled under his breath as he picked up a blaster and bravely edged himself towards the end of the hallway.
It was Kee-Kah. She was glitching horrifically and dripping in blue paint. Her eyes were black and stared into your soul with a flashing blue tint to them. The legs mutated and disturbingly muscular. She was holding a packet of eggs and slamming them into her head.
"BLUE BLUE BLUE EGGSHELLS EGGSHELLS NO PURPLE BLUE BLUE BLUE WAAAAAAAA!"
Hardcase's eyes welled up with tears, "You glitched your servers... with paint to Please..."
"DAD NO DAD NO DAD NOOOOO!!!!" Kee Kah crushed another clone and started sprinting towards her own owner.
"KEE KAH!!! STOP IT! PLEASE I LOVE YOU- AA-"

Hardcase woke up with a scream and went to sit up but was swiftly pushed back down.
"Nanana you're not knocking yourself out again!" Kix grinned.
Hardcase stared at him in confusion, "What's going on?"
"Through the night the kitty cat decided that would've the perfect time to have a complication with giving birth." Tup explained.
"And Kix dropped a tray of medical equipment. You bolted up hit your head and knocked yourself out. We have your furby here." Fives held up his furby, still perfectly intact and purple.
"It's quite a knock but with rest-"
"THANK YOU!" he yeeted the medic away and cuddled his child tightly.
He was okay! Not painted blue! It was all fine. The wet feeling on his head must have been the compress Kix had used
"Don't worry sweetheart. You're perfect as you are I love you as purple you don't need to be blue Daddy always loves you!" he cradled the furby, which gave a series or screeches and grunts if approval.
"Right... ಠ_ಠ Oh yeah we need to find places for the kittens."
Hardcase thought for a moment, "I think I know where to take them..."

Why am I up writing this at Tyree in the morning?? We may never know. :)
