A cold night in the swiss pines. A squad of 6 Waffen SS troops have been deployed on operation "DealBreaker". The first soldier, "Rimmer" spotted a figure in the distance standing crookedly. This figure was at least 8 feet tall according to his measurements from afar, perhaps even taller.

"Captain what is that?!?" Rimmer whispered in an uneasy tone. "Alek, what do you see?" Hasdaun whispers as he grabs his binoculars. Alek with his scope notices all the unsettling details about the figure, "Captain... It's just flesh.." Alek replies shocked. A feeling of dread and fear runs down the squad's spines, "Captain, It's gone!" Rimmer exclaims. "Find it. I need to report this to HQ." Hasdaun replies in a tense tone as he quickly grabs the telephone on Rimmer's Radio backpack, "This is Captain Hasdaun, I have come to report about a tall figure" Says Hasdaun as a man picks up the radio and replies "What are the details of this figure you say?". Hasdaun feels a chill run down his spine "At least 8 feet tall and... It is entirely made from flesh. It has no skin.", "What the hell? Are you joking? Are you making up reasons to call for backup?!?" HQ Replied not buying Hasdaun's story. "Damn it. We're gonna have to do this ourselves.. Alek, go up that ridge over there and cover us. Ludwig, stay at the entrance of the Town. Steinburg, Karl and Rimmer, come with me." Hasdaun commands each and every soldier, little did he know this would seal his squad's fate (Splitting up was his grave mistake.).

They enter the abandoned overran town as doors slam shut to the cold winds within. Clearly this town has been recently evacuated for an unknown cause... "Hey Rimmer, check if there are any working radio stations. Channel into them and collect intelligence." Hasdaun ordered, "Yes captain" Rimmer replied as he slowly walks away from the squad in search of stations. Hasdaun is competent in Rimmer's cautiousness, "He'll come back" Said Hasdaun. Unfortunately.. This was not the case. 

A loud scream followed by multiple gunshots echo around the town, Hasdaun and his squad quickly run to investigate. What they saw was worse than any of the brutal P.O.W. camps they've been to.. 

Rimmer was hanging on a streetlight with his gun through his neck bent around the streetlight, his face was ripped clean off exposing his face muscles and skull. His eyes filled with terror hanging from his face.. He was still breathing. Hasdaun has decided to end his suffering, knowing that keeping him alive would be worse than ending his pain. The decision of his life, having to end one of his best men in combat.. One of his most skilled sons. The horrid sight burns into the squad's minds and memories as they slowly walk away to a safe position, they know that "Thing" murdered Rimmer, They stay alert as they navigate through the town. They hear a voice, not any normal voice. This voice was trying to mimic Rimmer with it's broken german and glitching voice cracking into a deep whisper, "Help me." It said using Rimmer's voice to lure in the squad. 

Hasdaun has an urge to investigate yet he knows for fact that it's trying to lure him in. "Let's go, we must find a working radio and contact HQ." Hasdaun says as they depart from their safe spot. (Rimmer's Radio was ripped apart. Perhaps the radio lured that "Thing" to Rimmer.). They find a radio and turns it on, the volume blasts static as they hear a violent deep roar or scream in the distance. They quickly turn to the direction of the roar to see an "Empty" street, a figure emerges from the fog.. That's "It". "It" was there.. And "It" was wearing Rimmer's face. 

The group quickly opens fire as a wave of 9mm and 7.62 bullets whiz through the fog, they dump their magazines into the "Figure". They quickly run out of ammo and they wait in paranoia as the smokes clears, "It" was gone. "It" was nowhere to be seen other than multiple bullet holes on a building ahead. A shadow emerges from above, it's right above them.. Hanging from ontop of a building. The figure got to them before their bullets did...

Steinburg was the first to take the first shot, this aggravated the figure and attacked him ripping out Steinburg's throat in an instant. The next swing was to his face, the figure swings his claws ripping through his face and cracking his skull instantly killing him. The figure turns to Karl with it's empty soul less eyes. He rushes to get the machine gun but his back gets pierced by the figure's claws and it drags him to his fate. Hasdaun is hesitant to leave his men but he makes a run for the entrance to warn Ludwig and Alek, He miraculously reaches the entrance of the town but finds that he is the only one left. All the others are gruesomely murdered in cold blood as their bodies rot away in the cold swiss snow. 

Hasdaun opens his flask to find a single bullet. "This is it. This is how it all ends.." He said before he loads his pistol. "Farewell, my sons." He squeezed the trigger and... BANG
