[0800]

"...We really need to go in there...Don't we...?"

"Unfortunately..."

There was a sigh of defeat from Milo as he turned his nervous green eyes to the window beside him. It opened up to a simple room with a table. You could see that the table was screwed to the ground, alongside a chair that was also attached to the floor. In the chair was Mr. Eric Halloway. YOu hadn't gotten a good look at him the first time around, but he was...fairly normal looking. Now out of his lab coat and in something akin to a black prison uniform, you could see that he was nothing impressive. Approximately 5'8 and an average weight, with brown eyes and a bruise blossoming onto his pale face. You weren't sure it was where he got hit by one of the boys, or if it was dealt to him upon entering the grounds.

"...I see."

Remington had called, telling the division heads to start with the interrogation portion. They knew what they saw, they had everything that they needed to find out what they needed to...It was best that they got every bit of information they could extract from him. Non lethal force was permitted.

"And Clarence told you everything he found so you know what to ask?"

"Yeah. I stayed up last night reading his findings."

"Alright. There should be no problems then. We're all here so it should go smoothly," Mishel eyed the other two division heads. "I'm not in the best condition, but if something happens, I can take him down with Raul. His knee got shot out so he can't get too far."

"Don't stress your body too much...Let's just get in and get out as soon as we can."

"Yeah. I like the sound of that."

They signaled to the guard by the door to let them in, and he complied, opening it up easily and catching the attention of the man inside. The BOA researcher leveled his gaze to stare at them over his glasses, as if sizing them up for something.

"I was wondering when I'd see more of the Special Division."

[1500]

You were called out to the Conference room in building B, and you flashed back to the last few times you were called out to places by higher ups...Hopefully this time wasn't as...unsavory, seeing as Remington was not around, but your gut told you that you were probably wrong. After asking one of the female soldiers (who's name you found out was Lana) where it was, you made your way over there. Up three flights of stairs, third room on the left- ah there it was...And it seemed everyone was already gathered there. You hated being late.

You took your seat and watched the Division heads, who seemed weighted down by something.

"...I wish we could have called you down on...well...Any other terms than these, but unfortunately we've got some news to discuss with you that changes the entirety of our situation." Milo slowly got up from his set and took a flashdrive from his pocket before plugging it up to a nearby computer. and clicking a few things.

"We were talking to Mr Halloway, suspecting he knew something about what was going on. We pieced a few things together and a few of our men have been working on this day and night, but things just weren't falling together yet. I'll share what I do know with you though..." He pulled up an image familiar to Air Force.

"The first thing we asked him about was this. My division found this image in a computer and in a box in a storage room...It appears to be a neuron, but it's not." Miloincreased magnification n the back legs, and you could see that the image was not stark still but instead began to twitch and move, showing it was alive. "These raised concern right off, and for good reason."

"The BoA Have manufactured a parasite."

Milo's tongue ran across his teeth nervously as he continued on.

"We then asked him about what it did, and it took a while, but he told us. The parasite looks like a neuron in size and shape, and it acts like it too. It released hormones into the brain that triggers a change in the body. The very basic chemistry of the body itself is changed, forcing it to produce enzymes and change the Ph of the body to accommodate the parasite's need for an extreme acidic environment...As well as protect the user from it's waste product."

"The waste and the body itself essentially produces and houses a fluroantimonic acid like chemical, much like Project Wyrm did. This must have been the next step in their plan. However it doesn't stop there. The acid causes discomfort, but that parasite grows at an extremely fast rate. It travels the length of the spinal cord and it latches onto the length of it. It's production then takes another turn and begins forcing acid into the nervous system. Due to the enzyme protecting it, the Nervous system is not broken down, but it does cause extreme irritation. The body then feels as if it's on fire from the inside out. This discomfort leads to extreme aggression in the subject and a change in brain chemistry."

"Which leads me into this."

Milo switched slides to the two drugs found by The Marines.

"These two drugs are part of the next phase: Distribution."

"This one in the syringe, which we'll call Phase 1 contains the parasite itself, as well as some mildly addiction compounds, fooling the user into believing it was just a drug when they have just injected the dormant parasite into their body. The parasite then makes its way up to the brain and rests on the brain stem. If we were to look at a dormant parasite in an x ray or any other test, we would most likely not detect it." He held up the syringe taken from Lenore, the one labelled P.P. "This vial...it contains what he called 'The Panhu Parasite."

"After Phase 1, there is phase two, these tablets, which is where everything goes wrong."

"These tablets contain C20H27N3O, which is very similar to LSD in its effects on perception, but it has a slightly different molecular composition. After taking this tablet, it goes directly to the brain and it provides nutrition to the parasite and activates it, waking it up and triggering it to begin production. This was also found in the dog food that was at the Eukanuba plant in New Orleans. I've included an image of the compound."

"This creates a viscious cycle. The pain does not go away under any tradition method except for..." He pointed to the tablet on screen. "Ingesting more of the phase 2 drug. Which provides more nutrition to the parasite, encouraging growth, which triggers more intense pain."

"The investors that Navy encountered...They want to use this for their own gain, putting an extremely addictive drug in their products...Food, makeup, supplements...Anything to get their products to be number one. They probably didn't even know they were being used."

"And we know this..." There was a pause as he bit his lip, doubting the next step in his presentation, "Because the mouse had the parasite inside of it...It was already exposed to the phase 1 drug."

He clicked into a clip, allowing it to run. The slammed itself against the side of the cage, its eyes on someone before it was given a tiny sample of what appeared to be dog food. It attacked it, sucking it up immediately as if it was starving. A minute or two later, it seemed to relax and lay down, feeling relief, and the footage skipped to two hours later...Where it was vastly different than before.

It had developed small boils, and its spit was an off white color, eyes glassy and reddened with small bits of mucous dripping from the corners. bits of its hair had fallen out, burnt by the acid that dripped from his body. And it's aggression was ten times worse. It screamed at anyone coming close to it, violently thumping against it's plastic prison. The footage cut off after that.

"And this...This Project Panhu is what we will be facing in the future...This is our threat, and a threat to the rest of the world...Which is why we will begin to prep immediately. If there are no questions, get on your field uniform and meet me outside in half an hour. All of you."
