It was nothing but chaos. Security on site was... ill-prepared. Several sectors were comprised, and as the warden, Konrad had advised Protocol 6. The fail-safe to all fail safes. But, as he thought, his boss didn't like the idea. After all, more data would be destroyed rather recovered.

"Konrad. You had orders. Bunker down, and wait for reinforcements to arrive. You said you had the situation contained. So explain to me why you're enacting Protocol 6. "

"Sir, that was over an hour ago. The Main Power Generator has gone down- We're running on backups. Of course, the data is currently being transferred to our more secure site in Denver, but n-"

"Not all, Konrad. I expected more from you. Dammit, the agency is going to grill my fucking ass for this. If I'm going down, I'm making sure you've got a first class ticket to h-"

"Do not worry. After all..." 

Konrad taps his forehead, smirking at the dark figure in the screen above.

"It's all in my head. This is better for you anyway. Besides, the prototypes and their research will be destroyed. By an carpet bombing no less. It'll give an excuse for the government to send in troops to clean up. All I ask, is that you send an evac chopper. Oh, and send a one or two escorts with it. It seems Church and her company have.. finally shown their true colors. I'll have the security forces delay the DEVGRU team that was sent, and Ark Corp's people. You see a VTOL on site, blow it to pieces. After today... There will be war, one that is unavoidable, yes, but one that we can win. Give me a lab and the resources I ask for, and I'll ensure victory for our cause. "

"....Fine. ETA, fifteen minutes. Assuming you're still alive by then."

"Thank you sir."

Konrad sighed as one of the security officers came up to him and saluted. "Yes soldier?" The officer nodded as he replied. "Sir, your orders?" 

"Just hold them off. If they reach the inner perimeter however... Call me. I'll activate... a few surprises from Military R&D. But do not try to actively engage. Fire to deny the enemy land. Am I clear?"

"Yessir." The soldier quickly ran off to the makeshift barricades. It was going to be one big cluster fuck all right. At least inside, that VTOL hovering a few miles away could not do much damage. Perhaps shake the foundation, but this facility was protected for those kinds of things.
