One day at the I.M.P Headquarters, a contract for an unknown target described as a man-eating beast is thrown onto the desk.

Moments later, in Antarctica, the portal opens allowing Randall, Berry, Moxxie, and Millie through the portal.

Randall quickly gets up, "Ah, that was a big jump," And soon begins to shiver.

Millie and Berry stand up and shiver as well with their arms wrapped around themselves.

Trying to keep warm, Randall says, "It's so fuckin cold here! I'm freezing my fuckin tail off!"

He then asks, "Remind me why we need to come here?"

"Because that's where the job is at. The client said that he was killed by some monster and wants us to kill it. And he is worried about his team who are still in the area," Berry says.

Randall continues shivering and says, "Oh yeah, but here is that thing supposed to be?"

"The client said it was near the research station," Millie says.

Moxie soon points ahead, "Th-th-th-that research station?"

The group soon looks ahead to see the McMurdo station. Randall exhales and starts shivering and the group begins approaching towards the research station. When they arrive, they see the door opening and closing repeatedly. What's more, the windows are shattered.

Moxxie says, "Oh crumbs, that can't be good."

"That's never a good sign," Berry says.

Randall soon walks inside and is shocked, "Oh sh- yikes, yi-"

When everyone else looks inside, they find the research station is full of dead bodies of people killed in a gruesome fashion.

"Oh my gosh," Berry says, shocked.

"What happened here?" Moxxie asks

Millie picks up one of them as she says, "These guys were torn to shreds. I've seen Wrath b-b-b-beasts less brutal than this."

"What and/or who could've done this?" Moxxie wonders.

A roar is heard outside the station, and Randall turns to see the silhouette of what the imps believed to be responsible for the killings.

"Uh, that, probably," Randall says, pointing towards the treasure.

He then turns to the others, "Okay, Moxxie, get up top, Millie, Berry, cover the entrances, I got it here," and position himself towards the window.

"Yes, sir," Moxxie salutes and gets into position.

Moxxie climbs up on the roof, scopes in and sees a giant leopard seal running towards them.

"Y-you got him, Mox?" Randall asks.

"Yes sir," Moxxie answers.

"Sweet, let's turn him into some SWISS cheese!" Randall says and fires at the monster.

However, the shots fail to hurt it significantly. Moxxie misses the first shot, but takes a deep breath and fires again, blowing the monster's head clean off.

"Guess he met his match, heh-heh," Randall says and walks towards the corpses. He then stomps his foot on the corpse, "Eat shit in Hell, polar slut! Good job, Mox, now let's get out of this frozen fuckhole."

Soon, Millie walks over to see the corpse.

Soon, Millie notices, "Hold it, Randall. Look at these marks. They weren't made by no bullets," And then looks at the creature, "And here, bite marks."
