Tank Borne

Part 4: disaster

Liana returned to her quarters after the guards came in and saw Syn-syn standing in the chamber holding up Valgor by his coat looking at him. He was unconscious at the moment but woke up when the guards came. He heard them point up Huns but stop when they saw what he did. When he opened his eyes he was staring right into Syn-syn's. He then noticed that the Youtja hadn't hurt him really except for pushing him when Dan shoved him.
Guns on Syn-syn he stared at them now, flaring his mandibles and lowering his brow in a gruesome frown. 
The guards saw a hand signal from the doctor, he was waving them off not wanting to get thrown about after what happened to Dan. They hesitated at first but then gave in and backed out and waited in the hall just outside of the room.
Valgor looked up and studied the Youtja before speaking. When Syn-syn looked down at his and relaxed his face and drew in his mandibles Valgor said in a low calm manner, "Syn-syn, I'm Valgor. I saved you."

Syn-syn was trying to process what the man said but didn't know . All he got was the man was pleading for his life and trying to be friends, all of which Syn-syn didn't give a damn about. He let the human male go and stood up then stepped over him to the hallway when he saw the guards. He noticed that as soon as they saw him every one of them shuddered and backed away. Valgor came out after Syn-syn and saw the scene, he told them, "use the sleeping bullets. We need to contain him back in the lab."

One officer said, "but sir we need to consider your safety." 

Valgor looked around the creature and said back trying to remain calm, "that's okay. I'll lock the door to the chamber."

The guards switched magazines in their rifles to sleeping bullets that would wound Syn-syn but not be able to do any really harm as long at they didn't hit the face area.

Syn-syn didn't like the smell that came of whatever those men were holding and pointing at him. To him at first they were like odd pipes or tubes that they might whack him with but then he saw them change something about them and then they raised the objects right at him! That's when he could see their body heat rise and smell the humans intent. He heard the door lock behind him and knew he couldn't run back so he lunged forward and got hit by two bullets. The others being fired were missing as he grabbed two men and smashed them into wall killing them. The other four were backing off but Syn-syn caught up to one and shoved his throat into his mouth and tore his head off, another bullet hit him. He spit out the head and held up the body and used his shield as protection from more bullets and came at full speed at the remaining three men.
They had no choice and called for a "fall back" and ran from Syn-syn. He felt happy over the chance and sped up holding the corpse in one hand and the shield in the other.
There was a split in the hallway and one man went right while the other two went left to protect resident staff, where living quarters was while the one guy went to get more help.
Syn-syn didn't give a shit about more people coming. He was enjoying this game and learning from it. A lot about using his heat vision to see prey as they try to blend in or hide. How to move fast and dodge. And even now that he was close he could smell the female in the area where he was.
He slowed down and took in the scent. When he locked on to where she was he walked fast down the hall and found her door. He didn't see it as a door though. The temperature told him this was solid his like the wall but heat was coming around the seem of something.
The two guards that were running from him came to see where he went when they noticed they weren't being chased anymore and saw him. One man shot at him but missed when he raised their dead friend. He looked at them and they both started shooting but hitting the corpse. He threw it at them, the body hit one man while the other dodged but Syn-syn threw the shield so hard it spun and decapitated his head. The other man was passed out with the body on him and Syn-syn ignored him. He turned to the door that he was trying to figure out but saw it was open now and the female was peaking out looking at him with her mouth open. Syn-syn saw this and growled thinking her mouth open meant she was threatening him. She got the gesture and shut her mouth and ducked into her quarters. She didn't have a chance to shut the door when Syn-syn dodged over and held it open.
Liana yelped and he lunged forward and covered her mouth. She squirmed but not really to get away but to close the door not wanting a guard in here when this seemed a good chance to try and talk to him.
She knew enough Youtja to make a point and said, "Youtja I told you- wait! What did you do?"

He chuffed at her for her attitude and for botching every word. She noticed he was tired looking and then saw the bullets in his tough skin. She tried pulling one from the left side of his ribs. She couldn't get it and he saw what she was doing and simply flicked it out. He watched her back up a couple steps. She was very animated to him when she said, "what you're not going to talk? You are wounded by sleep stabbers- bullets- you have to go quick! They will make you sleep or fight fast."

He understood some of what she said because she'd switch from Youtja to English which irritated him. But what she said about sleep was important to him at least. He felt oddly relaxed and tired. Also hungry and cold. When he thought about being cold he looked at the female human and noticed she had a covering on, multiple ones, even her feet.

Liana noticed the opposite about him. There he was in his full glory. His excitement from fighting raised his scent of beery hops and heightened his colors. His spots seemed blacker while his stripes almost glowed. His eyes too were glowing a hot orange like looking at the sun when it sets.

He looked at her and said, "I did not start fight. Male ran and hid while others attack and hurt Syn-syn."

Liana heard him and got the point of what he was saying. When she heard him say his name it sounded like he was saying 'I am Sin.' It suited him perfect, two hours old and out of the tank and he kills everyone, she thought. She snickered and said, "I'm afraid if they catch you and I like this they'll kill me and hurt you. Probably cut you up now or do a bunch of painful tests."

He didn't understand her language but some things that she said like "catch" and "pain" he knew meant bad.

He heard more people outside and she listened and heard them as well. She told him to hide around the corner and she'd tell them she's hiding.

They knocked on her door and she opened it after dropping a towel over Syn-syn's blood that was glowing on the carpet.

"Are you alright ma'am? The Youtja is lose and we need to find him."

"I ran here and kept myself locked in. I don't know where it is." She said trying to acted frightened and crying. She did a perfect job, the officer felt bad for her and said, "we'll find it and take care of it. Lock yourself in again and we will come get you when it's over." After that he left and Liana locked the door.
She turned around and didn't see Syn-syn and walked over to her dining area and saw Syn-syn in the open bedroom. He was standing bent over in the doorway.

First time I have a naked guy in my room it's an alien. Fucking great! She thought and rolled her eyes. At least it wasn't like a human man. All of Syn-syn's junk was tucked in a carapace of muscle that kinda looked like a flat pouch. All in all he was very bare ass naked. Liana walked around him and took the sheet off her bed and asked him to tear it in half. He did then she handed him half and he just looked at her.

She rolled her eyes again and pinched her nose then looked up at him saying, "dress the bottom half."
At this he raised one side of his brow then watched her take the other half of the sheet and wrap herself. He copied her and saw how it went even between her legs. When he finished she helped him tighten it a little to hold himself together.

We've established a loin cloth. Thank goodness! She thought and giggled nervously.

He liked the feeling of some sort of clothing and protection.
