The Usual Supects

Ch.13 The Usual Supects

"Is 'Suspect' spelled wrong to anyone else?" Sun asks.

"Grim said he won't change the original titles," Weiss answered.

[The Next Day]

The scene shifts to a cold dark exterior bunker. After a brief moment of silence, the door opens as the howling sandstorm above nearly converts the afternoon red sky. Outside, a loud gust of wind blows sand through the door as two figures crawl in with an Enclave Eye-Bot following them. Once they close the door, the two cough as they remove the cloth and eye protection from their faces - revealing them to be both Ruby and Six.

"Heh, I've seen the worst storms in Vacuo," Sun pointed out. "Like, I've seen some that can move vehicles. Let me tell you if any of you go there. Just stay low with something keeping your head safe." Everyone made a mental note on that account.

"(Cough, Cough.) Oh god, I hate sandstorms. It always leaves your boots stuffed with sand." Six croaks.

"At least it's your boots." Everyone turns to Sun who tries to hide a bit of color on his cheeks. "Don't ask."

"Ugh, (spit) I think I can still taste it in my mouth," Ruby complains.

"Beep, Boop, Beep." (Oh, great we all have something in common. We all hate fucking sand.)

"Heh, damn straight. But hey, at least we made it here." Six remarks as he places back on his boot.

As much as Sun loves Vacuo, he like everyone else hates the fucking sand.

As he stands up, his eyes finally adjust to the dark bunker. It is still too dark to see anything, but with a quick flip of their pip-boy's the room illuminates. However, he instantly regrets doing so. Across the room is a flight of stairs leading downstairs. Above it leaning against the wall is a body in a white jumpsuit with chunks of brain matter everywhere. What is disturbing, however, are the multiple graffiti messages written above the body. The deed seems to be done in the deceased's own blood.

The text "Get OUT of here!" is sprawled over a white graffiti of a heart with a V and C inside. There is another reading "The treasure is mine, mine, mine", and there is a picture of a child in a gas mask with words saying "I'm not your mommy".

Everyone except Neo and Sienna has a horrific expression. Sienna has seen these kinds of scriptures in raids, while Neo recalls to herself performing something much worse. Nora was the first to recover and noticed the heart with V and C.

"(Gasp) Oh, my Oum!" Ruby gasps in shock as her eyes widen in horror.

"Poor bastard." Six mutters as he eyes a fragment of whatever explosive that killed him on the ground.

"Beep, Boop, Beep." (Ouch, talk about a killer headache.)

Yang tries to keep in a chuckle while her team, friends, and Sienna slam their heads into their hands. Neo silently giggles to herself.

Six rolls his eyes in annoyance as he picks up the piece, taking a better look at it. As he inspects the peculiar, circular fragment, Ruby keeps on staring at the body in absolute horror. As she tries to cope, she hears a faint call coming from below.

"Sinclair! Sinclair! Where are you, Sinclair!?"

"Oh no. Ruby, don't follow the voice," Velvet said as her ears folded back. She curled up with her knees to her chest.
