I Am The Doorway
It's a normal day. The sun is shining, the wind is blowing. Except for some reason Walt is staggering like a drunkard on a hallway in Alhambra somewhere.
“I’m not feeling very well…” He mumbles, before falling to his knee and throwing up. He then clutches his bandaged left arm, looking obviously in pain.
“I’m… really not feeling very well at all.” He says, before collapsing to the floor. He screams in surprise, as the bandages that covers his left arm unravel and burst. Sickening, bulbous, tumorous growth expands rapidly with the many eyes that blink and roll in Walt’s left arm. The many eyes that some people might have forgot.
The fleshy bulbous growth bubbles and grows bigger and bigger as Walt continues to scream, and soon it grows bigger than his left arm, and bigger, and bigger. Until at last it’s clear that part of the growth molds into a shape. A human hand.
The hand then grabs the floor, as if it’s trying to claw itself out from Walt’s body. Soon, a head appears, then a torso, before a fully formed human being finally grows itself out of Walt’s left arm.
Finally, silence, as Walt finally stops screaming and fully collapse to the floor. And a naked, pale, scarred, human being cowers beside him.
The scene is quickly greeted by the convergence of the base's security. They all raise their weapons toward both Walt and the mysterious being.
And the mysterious being only says one sentence.
"I... friend..."

[The emergence happens.]
W-WALT?!
[Setsuko takes a step back, her heart pounding heavily. This is... very wrong.]

What the hell is this?!
no subject
THE FUCK.
[She stays trained and ready as the gruesome process continues, not letting the security guards get too close. If something is going down, the one who can take a tank shell without flinching is probably the best frontline candidate.
And when it finally finishes, the first thing she's going to do is pull Walt and toss him a short distance away from the creature (in case it's one of those that kill their hosts after hatching) while keeping a plasma cannon pointed at it for the slighest twitch]
IF YOU CAN UNDERSTAND ME. YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS TO CONVINCE ME TO NOT SET YOU ON FIRE DOWN TO THE ATOMIC LEVEL. ONE...

She moves in and tries to drag Lieutenant Schmertz a distance away from the...newborn.
"C'mon Walt, talk to me!"
Re: 1
*Walt crawl away from the mysterious being he just birthed, screaming and babbling in panic, before throwing up once again. But at least he's still alive.
The mysterious being does something similar, it crawls toward an opposite corner, and huddles and shivers in a fetal position there.*
...help ...cold

Meanwhile, the mysterious being huddles and shivers in a fetal position in the middle of the encirclement.*

[People arrive promptly, at least. Well, the security does.]
Thank heavens... wait, no, don't shoot! Ahh! We need a doctor here!
[Setsuko does not know how to handle this situation at all. At least the creature didn't try to eat anyone yet. In fact...]
Cold?
no subject
PREPARE A CONTAINMENT UNIT. SECURITY, I WANT THIS THING ALIVE BUT BEHIND SEALED BULLETPROOF GLASS BEFORE TEN MINUTES. NOBODY IS TO APPROACH IT WITHOUT A HAZARD SUIT. GO.
[The security sergeant is not exactly happy at Kagura more or less taking over the situation, though] "Hey, on what authority are you giving orders? You're not in our chain of command!"
ON THE AUTHORITY THAT I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING AND YOU'RE PANICKING, AND ALSO THAT IF YOU DON'T DO WHAT I JUST SAID I WILL PUT YOUR FUCKING HEAD THROUGH A WALL. NOW HAUL ASS, I'LL CLEAR IT WITH ANTOV LATER. ALLENSBY, SEE HOW SCHMERTZ IS.
[As the security people spread out and the Executors keep watch on the mysterious thing, one of Kagura's subordinates approaches Walt carefully, asking how he is - and keeping an eye on his arm, just in case. Kagura, in the meantime, keeps her "eyes" (and gun) locked on the creature]
NOW WE ARE GOING TO MOVE YOU. IF YOU REALLY ARE A FRIEND I SUGGEST YOU DON'T RESIST.

*The creature seems to struggle to form each words, and it winces its eyes hard as it presses its hands hard onto its ears.*
no subject
*The creature doesn't resist. It winces hard as it tries to both hug itself and closes its ears with its hands. It seems to struggle to form each words.
Meanwhile, Walt huddles in the corner and hugs his knees, panting and wheezing. You notice that the eyes on her arms are still there, but there's no sign that anything is going to emerge anymore, at least.*
no subject
You have a commlink, right? Call the medical team!
...And a biohazard team too, just in case!
no subject
[Setsuko wonders why she even talks to this... thing. For now she needs to make sure Walt is okay.
So she walks up to him, but keeps her distance.]
Lt Schmertz?

I'M THE TOUGHEST HERE. IF IT TRIES TO DO ANYTHING LIKE TAKE ME OVER, BLOW ME UP.
[Soon, they take it to a glass enclosure behind several high security doors, to quarantine it]
CLOSE IT. AKO, BRING OUR SCIENTISTS HERE. THEN HEAT IT UP. THE COLD WAS MAKING IT RESTLESS. I WANT TO SEE HOW IT REACTS.
[Well, on the plus side, if it was complaining about cold and noise, it's now in a muffled, warmer place. On the con side, said place is basically a jar and if it tries anything strange they'll blow it up. So, mixed blessing.]
no subject
[At least Setsuko really, REALLY hopes so.]
Let's go rest, it will be alright, you just need to lie down for a second.

*The security team points their weapon at both Walt and the creature anxiously. Their trigger fingers looks really twitchy*
...cold... hurts... everything...
*The creature doesn't do anything. It winces hard as it tries to both hug itself and closes its ears with its hands. It seems to struggle to form each words.*
Re: 1
She turns to the Lieutenant and pulls out a water bottle from her mechanic's overalls.
"Drink up..." She says. "Take a sip and breath slowly. You're gonna be okay, Walt."
"Also, it looks like you're a dad." She adds.

*The security team closes carefully toward you, guns waving uncertainly.*
Um, Ma'am. Should you really be that close to him? What if... he explodes?
no subject
[At least Setsuko hopes it is.]
Re: 1
She shakes her head. "Give me some space at get that newborn a blanket. I'll make sure that Walt doesn't explode."
no subject
You gotta focus. The medics are on their way!
Re: 1
*Someone comes out of nowhere and throws a blanket at the newborn. It stops shivering, but now it winces hard and covers its ears with both of its hands.
Meanwhile, Walt grabs Dido's collar with both hands.*
I'm still me, Dido! Don't let them burn me with flamethrowers! Quick, ask me something only I would know!"
no subject
Aah! Don't let them burn me! I know what's going to happen! Don't let them burn me!
no subject
I know what's going to happen! They're going to burn me now!

You're Walt, you're friendly, right? We'd never do that!

And neither is...
[Setsuko glances at the... thing in the corner. It's true that it is very passive - for now.]

Re: 1
"Er..."
She scratches her head. "Sorry, Walt. I've only known you for like, a month? I don't know anything that only you'd know. Maybe if you whispered one of your personal secrets to me...?"

She looks up and the soldiers, holding up a hand...
"It's cool, guys! Walt is still Walt! Stand down!"
