It was too cold. The humans kept their facility too cold. My host was fighting my control. Each time I tried to move its body it fought my efforts. But it was

I was so glad when the machine was turned off and I just caught Peter heading for the elevators. He can't go after Gabriel by himself, if there is something starting to control him. That'd be way too dangerous. The kitten Peter is glaring at me and I start to say something, then shrug. He'll be okay but Gabriel needs our help now. I race after them, hoping to catch either one

Mohinder's phone started shaking and the alarms went crazy on it. Thankfully it was enough to wake him from his nap. "Huh...?" He yawned and stretched. And as soon as he was awake enough to realize the severity of that particular alarm, he was up and getting dressed in a flash. In the rush, he assumed that all other agents were called in as well. He had no idea that Peter's paws only had enough time to call him.

He could only assume this had something to do with the alien attack the other day, and he grabbed his Noisy Cricket as well as a normal gun. He also decided to take the little gadget that he was working on at the moment. It was a type of freeze ray and of course he hadn't had time to test it yet. No time like the present.

After following the signal to Peter's phone, he was truly shocked at what he found - kittens?! And the machine was still going out of control. He decided this would be a perfect time to test out the freeze ray. After aiming, he fired and hit the machine dead on, causing it to... freeze. Wow, that was too

The host's body was dying, changing, becoming one with us. With tentacle mutated fingers, we stripped off its annoying garments and continued to build our nest. Its mind was still trying to fight us, but soon it would sleep. Resistance was futile. We would own this world. We would devour all.

I feel relief when I run into Peter, glad I'm not the only one down here. If he's down here, that probably means the upstairs is either clear or being searched thoroughly. I just hope we can find Gabriel in time to help him. I listen closely as Peter tells me what he has planned and what to do. "I think I can. I don't know how fast the monster is once it..." I don't even want to finish that sentence. As long as he's human, I can move fast enough

On his way there, he wondered if he should have made a trip to the equipment room first. But there was no time now. He had three guns, a screwdriver for some reason, and a pocket knife on him - he should be fine. While in the elevator, he looked closer at his phone and noticed there had been another alert sent out shortly after he got his, which put him at ease a little

Our nest is ready. The room is warm. The air is moist. The skin running up the host's stomach is splitting slowly, thin red human blood and green slime seeping from the wound. The host clutches at its stomach, fighting that pain that steals the breath from its primitive lungs. It will have no use for those much longer. Soon he will be completely absorbed, and I will be free to continue to breed.

A nob rubs along the taught skin of the host's belly, and he screams in pain as it pushes through the flesh. Blood from the host splatters over the nest, and its head rolls back as a pair of thin tentacles surge from its mouth and begin to pry his jaws apart. It is time to shed this useless skin and evolve.

I'm almost grateful to see Mohinder. I didn't get the chance to thank him before, for helping us, and here he is doing it again. I swallow, wiping my hands nervously on my pants. I don't want to think about Gabriel being like that thing that attacked us. It's not going to happen, we can't let it. Gabriel is needed too much for us to lose him so stupidly.

Taking out the first syringe, I take a deep breath. "Okay, lets get in there and save him before it's too late." Please don't let it already be too late. The door almost doesn't want to open but I push harder and it swings open. The second the door is open I can smell the blood and I almost whimper. We're too late. There's something pushing its way out of Gabriel and there's a rush through me that I don't understand.

With a snarl, I move fast and pouncing on it and jamming the needle into its neck, hoping like hell I can plunge it in before it throws me off or at least that Peter gets a chance if I can't make it.

Oh thank the gods, it was just Peter... and Peter. If the alien was susceptible to puppy and Bambi eyes, they'd have this in the bag. But he had a feeling this wasn't going to be that easy. After nodding at Peter's explanation and understanding what the plan was, he followed them into the room.

What was waiting for them was not a pleasant sight at all, and Mohinder's jaw dropped as he began to wobble a little. It was like something out of The Thing movie! Don't throw up. Don't throw up. Taking a deep breath, he stood up straight and prepared for the worst. The guns hummed as he set them to full charge, sounding like a Proton Pack firing up

((Pretty much torn apart and dead. You can skip me. By the way, Dr. G will be tearing open anyone at the Company with Regen's head as soon as he's had a good night's sleep.))

It's hard to hold on, the thing is a mass of writhing tentacles trying to pull me off. Out of the corner of my eye I see Mohinder flying through the air and Peter is yelling at me. There's a wrenching sound and the thing that had taken Gabriel over is laying on the floor, trying to tear Peter and Mohinder apart. Fuck

[mohindersuresh]

And then suddenly he was flying through the air! Luckily, Peter was there to catch him. Well, catching him was one way to put it anyway. Even though his power made him more resilient to tranquilizer darts and alcohol, he never experimented to see if it'd help with falling damage. And now was not a time to test it
