Abandoned Lab

Location Classified

3rd Pov

Manticore pries the door open to the wrecked lab that was the home of the weapon-x program.

Manticore: Hmm,

He overlooks the desolated laboratory filled with nothing but old and busted computers and numerous skeletons that littered the place.  The cyborg examined the dusty bones and concluded that their deaths were far from natural, as the boned had multiple slashes that looked like it was attacked by a feral animal, with three razor-sharp claws. 

Manticore: Looks like the Wolverine lives up to his name.  Stricker should have kept him on a shorter leash. 

He briskly walks through the desolated lab stepping on some skulls along the way but he finally reaches the main computer.

Manticore: At last.

He plugs into it and turns on the laboratory for the first time in years and all the machinery starts moving again. accesses all the files on the Weapon-X program, and accesses all of them in a matter of seconds.

Manticore: There.

He grabs the file marked Animantum formation and accesses it.

The computer asks what he would like to manufacture.

Manticore: Oh I have something in mind.

The cyborg uploads the blueprints for his own metal body into the system, then he over-rights the entire machinery to accommodate transferring his brain into a new body.

Manticore: Begin the process.

Computer: Affirmative. 

The computer uses the animatuam fabrication machine to make Manticore a new body, and once the killer's new body, and once it is complete, a machine arm takes the only human piece of him left his brain and carries it to his new body.

3rd Pov

Cayde is fast asleep still waiting for the blacksmith to finish his new weapons.

Griggs: Hey wake up sunshine.

Gunslinger: what...

Griggs: Your order is done.

He gets up and walks to the counter.

Gunslinger: Thanks.

Griggs: No problem and I gave it more of a Vacuo look aesthetic just the way you like it.

Gunslinger: Thank you.

Gunslinger: Thank you

Gunslinger: It looks great man thanks.

He takes the weapons, pays him, and goes to leave.

Several minutes pass as he trucks his way through the snowstorm back to the INN.

He gets inside the room hoping not to wake up Mora.  After he locks the door he turns to the beds and sees that Mora is still fast asleep, and looks on the other bed and sees Raven is in it but not asleep as she has her eyes open and is smiling. 

Raven: Hey.

Cayde: Hey.

Raven: How did it go?

Cayde: Good, how are things here.

Raven: Fine, I actually thought of a way out of here, but you are not going to like it.

Cayde: Oh no, what is it?

Raven: I will tell you tomorrow it's late and we won't be able to leave with that blizzard outside.

Cayde: Yeah your right.  I'll take the couch.

Raven: Oh, y-you don't have to there is room here.

She gestures to the right side of the bed she is in, and the couch was really small.

Cayde: Alright I'll go and get changed.

He goes into the bathroom and changes into his casual wear then goes back into the main room and gets into bed, and falls asleep almost immediately, as if he hasn't slept in days.

Raven turns to see him asleep, he was always a heavy sleeper.

She smiles and kisses his forehead 

Raven: Goodnight.
