Isola Di Lucertole

Chapter 6: The Alpha's In The Tunnels?!

The day was early, the tunnels where quiet and Leon has a plan.  What more do you want?  "Rise and shine all of you!" Leon says yelling in the room they made camp.  "No, no" Sans says waving Leon away.  End lifts his head and yawns a great yawn, with a bit of a squeak.  "We're being hunted!" Leon says trying to motivate the movement of his friends.  "By his old pack" Leon says pointing at End.  "It will all be OK as long as the alpha doesn't find us.  I'd have to fight it" Leon says peaking his head out of the room.  "You took out the other one pretty quickly" Edmund says.  "Yes, I took the scout, he was heard me come in and called for his pack.  I had to kill his as soon as I could.  The scout compared to an alpha is like us compared to Titan" Leon continues.  While the two scientists discus the situation, End and Sans are playing in the back of the room.  Sans throws up a chip(crisp) in the air, and End jumps up in the air to catch it.  "Your leg getting better End?" Sans says watching End gobble up the salty treat.  End roars with joy and jumps up and down, backwards and forth, side and side.  "Alright buddy, you ready?" Sans says holding his hand out to End.  End nods his head and jumps in his hand.  "We're ready!" Sans says putting End in his shirt pocket.  

Leon points to a map on the wall in the tunnels.  "We are here, we need to get" Leon slides his hand all the way to the opposite side of the map. "Here, we have to take the tunnel system to the safe room.  There is a map of the island there, food, water, guns, ammunition and plenty of room for you to build a little training area for End" Leon says pointing to End.  "We can set up out camp there" Edmund says with glee.  "Yeah, nothing can get in without us opening the door" Sans says.  "Pack up all the food and supplies you can from this room" Leon orders.  "I'll guard the entrance" He says flinging open the door.  When he flings open the door there are fast paste movement away from the door.  "Hmmm, I guess they are catching up" Leon says slowly closing to door behind him.  Inside the room Sans and Edmund are talking over the great security and all the crisps they can eat.  "It's safe, come on guys!" Leon says banging on the door.  "Are you ready?" Sans asks.  "Never been readier" Edmund says in response.  "What about you End?" Sans asks opening his shirt pocket.  End gives a screech of joy and curls up into a ball.  Leon, Sans and Edmund walk through the tunnels.  "So Leon, where do you think the alpha is?" Edmund says looking behind his back.  "My guess is near the center, where all the tunnels meet" Leon says waving his hands around.  "Hey, where'd you learn to fight like that?" Sans asks Leon.  "I learned it while me and my family where in China on vacation, I learned inner peace and ancient fighting" Leon says doing a back flip and landing in front of them.  "How old are you?" Edmund asks the springy man.  "I am 63 years old!" Leon says fixing his suit and tie.  "You're double our age and you can move like that?!" Sans says amazed.  "Careful, if I ever go nuts, I am going for Sans first.  I just hate your puns" Leon says walking ahead to a curve.   "Wow, I take offense to that.  I say these puns beca-" Sans is interrupted by by Leon shushing him.

"Alpha, Omega and Beta.  Up ahead" Leon whispers.  "I'm going for the alpha, stay here" Leon demands.  Leon runs around the corner and sprints straight for the alpha.  The raptors all cock their heads and sprint towards him.  "vieni , è l'odore del compagno morto"(come, it is the smell of a dead comrade).  The raptors stop in their path and smell the air.  The alpha turns around and runs, the omega and beta follow quickly.  "Are they scared of you?!" Edmund says poking around the corner.  "Indeed, or at least it seems that way, eh?" Leon says looking over his shoulder.  "I'm going after the alpha, you guys follow the tunnels" Leon says pointing ahead.  "Arrivederci" Leon says running after the raptors.  "Uhh, ok?" Sans and Edmund do as told and Leon slams a door.  "Come out, come out where ever you areeee" Leon says looking around.  "Hmmm, I am in their territory.  I might be at a disadvantage" Leon says scratching his head.  There is a fast patter of feet and growls.  "I know your techniques.  I had to write a paper on you stupid birds at Harvard" Leon says taking his suit coat off.  "Let us dance the night away, hm?"  The omega jumps out of the shadows, ready to slash Leon open.  Leon moves slightly to the left, dodging the attack.  The raptor jumps and Leon moves, dodging the raptor barley.  "I know the beta is about to pounce on my back" Leon says pointing behind himself.  The beta stands up quickly from his stalking position.  The beta growls and runs back in the shadows.  "I'M MORE QUALIFIED THAN YOUR OWN ALPHA!" Leon says stomping his foot.  "Now, I don't like shouting.  So why don't you come out of the shadows to my right.  C'mon, alpha.  You always attack on the right.  It's in your genes" Leon says waving the creature out of the darkness.  "Shall we?" Leon says opening his arms.  The alpha jumps and Leon and scratches his arm.  "Nice, I did't think you'd attack so soon, you're a pretty dumb alpha eh?" The alpha screeches with anger and runs back at Leon.  "Let us dance!" The alpha jumps at Leon and Leon grabs it's foot and slams it down on the ground.  The alpha screeches at in pain.  "Weak lizard" Leon says as the alpha slowly stands up.
