Date: 18 Nov 2023

Shawn shivered as the cold hit him to the bone despite his three thick winter coats. Two newest members of his team Ellie Williams and Jessica Duhon along with Raegan interviewed multiple Russian civilians as him and three of his fellow vets stood guard. "Christ" one of them Jospeh Halsey growled "how do these Russians stand this weather their out of their damn minds." The other two laughed as Shawn snorted not to smile but failing. "Who knows J maybe you can ask one of em and hope not to get smacked." Howard another one said. "Yeah and if you do you'll have a good reason to arrest them." Gabriel also told him stifling his laughter. "Oh very funny you two hey el-tee you just gonna let them do this to me?" Joseph said looking at Shawn waiting for a his answer. Before they shipped out to this frozen hell hole Shawn got promoted to a lieutenant which was long over due in his opinion considering how long he's been doing this job. All he could do is laugh even more, "they both have a point just wing it find the hottest chick possible and ask her that I dare you." Gabriel and Howard started howling in laughter as did Shawn only for Raegan to give them a death glare so bad it nearly made their hearts stop as they instantly regained their composure returning to their typical expressionless faces. Raegan continued to glare before returning back to the interview.

Meanwhile back in France

Tom stared out of the viewport as the security and clean up teams moved into dispose of the science team. Over the radio he heard someone whisper "dear god.." before one of the bodies he was expecting growled and lashed out him its right arm replaced with a whip like appendage, he screamed as it tore through his biological hazard protection suit and dark crimson blood spewed out with it. Immediately the guards opened fire on the man...no that creature but it continued towards them as the other bodies slowly got up and staggered toward them as well. Tom instantly sealed the door and locked it down tight but couldn't do anything else. He watched in muted horror as slowly but surely the remaining men were ripped open by more whips and claws. Eventually the lights in the room went out as a bullet hit the fuse box inside, and all Tom could see was bright muzzle flashes and hear screaming until silence. He proceeded to look inside to see what exactly happened only for Frank's body to jump up and start bashing against the window. Tom instantly flung back in fear as the former Frank began to bash against the window as the others did as well including the poor security and cleanup team. Tom continued to back up before turning and fleeing sealing and locking the main door trying to drown out the pounding, that growling, the screaming the sight of people literally being ripped open. He eventually stopped and collapsed to the ground at this point he was crying "god forgive me I'm the reason they're all dead and I'm the reason this gonna get out."

A/n: WAS GOOD FAMIZZLES?! Anyways hoped you liked this chapter this was such a big idea of mine. Essentially I took the flood from halo and put them in here but it's mainly combat forms and pure forms: tank, ranged, and stalker. Watch Hidden Xperia's videos on the flood all of them but their essentially zombies I might add a gravemind mind I might not still tossing that idea around. Later on I might change carrier forms from them carrying infection forms (google both and stalker and tank and ranged and full gravemind in halo 2 and combats forms to get an idea of what they look like) to them carrying the infection I wanted it to be airborne like flood can be honestly I got this idea yesterday while working on chapter III and it just seemed better then just having a typical zombie. Anyways im no longer tired so I might do 5-8 or maybe even 9 tonight just depends. Anyways y'all see you in the next chapter
