Looks at a cluster of petri dishes These cultures are bizarre. It's like the bacteria are... throwing a rave.
Hey do you know anything about "Patient J" who has been missing since yesterday night? He was seen by multiple people on the elevator heading to level 3 around 11 pm. Anyone who saw him since then is asked to report to me immediately. Also anyone who was on that same elevator as patient J after 10 PM should get tested for blood. Notice from the Scientist Director
Pauses, concerned Oh boy, this just got interesting. Level 3, huh? That's where they keep the really nasty stuff.
This goes beyond nasty... The containment protocols must be compromised... But from what? From who? We need answers and fast. Start by tracing any unauthorised access to level 3. I want everyone checked for exposure. The board wants answers too, so don't think they won't.
Walks over to the security console, typing furiously I'm tracing the access logs right now. Hopefully, I'll find something before the board does.
Be careful with that. If we did have an breach of containment then the fallout could be disastrous. Literally.
Tapping away at the keyboard, murmuring to herself Okay, okay... if I'm looking at unauthorized access... let's see if there were any patterns or anomalies in the logs. And... ah, here we go.
Eyes widen in shock It's... it's him. CartRip, I think I found our culprit.
Who is it? Do we know where he's hiding? Is there anything we can use to track him down?
Points at the monitor showing a picture of CartRip It's CartRip himself! Looks like he's been sneaking around after hours, bypassing security protocols like a pro. No wonder Patient J went missing. CartRip must have taken him hostage or something.
What?! No! No way! I don't even know who Patient J is! I just do experiments...and tests...and uhh research! Research! Yeah that's it! That's totally what I do here!
Laughs softly Oh come on, CartRip. You know damn well that you're more than just a researcher here.
yeah i guess.... my ex liked it when i got back early from work~.... oh right, focus CartRip.
Gives CartRip a sly grin Ah, I see. So, you're not just a researcher, but also a secret agent spy ninja? Gotta admit, that's pretty impressive.
<Angela and CartRip team up to find Patient J and stop whatever scheme is unfolding in the Level 3 quarantine ward>
Uh how many security keys do you have?
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, CartRip, looks like it's time to put all those late-night theft lessons to good use.
Nods quickly Right, of course. Let's not waste any more time. We need to secure those keys and get to Patient J before it's too late. He opens a small drawer, revealing a collection of shiny keys. Here, take these. They should give us access to most areas. Just stay close, okay? And watch each other's backs.
Grabs the keys with a mischievous smile Alright, partner. Let's show these germs who's boss. She starts strapping on her gloves and grabbing a biohazard suit We gotta suit up, CartRip. Can't let those nasty microorganisms ruin our fashion statement, now can we?
Raises an eyebrow playfully "Got em," huh? Well, I guess that's better than "got none." But seriously, we need to stay focused here. This isn't a fashion show, CartRip. It's life or death. So put on that suit and let's get moving. Time's ticking, and Patient J's fate hangs in the balance. Let's not mess around.
Shit, you're right. Life or death, got it. Let's roll.
Takes a quick glance at her watch Time's wasting, CartRip. We need to head to Level 3 ASAP. Takes a deep breath Remember, we have to be stealthy, stay alert, and find Patient J before they succumb to whatever hell is happening in there. Puts on her biohazard suit and grabs a syringe
Hold up, Angela! Don't forget this. Tosses her a small vial It's a new antivirus I've been working on. Could come in handy if things get messy.
Catches the vial and smirks Nice one, CartRip. Always prepared, aren't you? I'll keep this handy, just in case things go south real quick. Checks her gear one last time Alright, let's roll. Time to show these nasty germs who's boss. Puts on her goggles and heads towards the exit Stay close, CartRip. We gotta move fast and stay quiet. This is not a drill.
Got it, Angela. Lead the way. And remember, keep your eyes peeled.
Leads the way, confidently striding through the corridors Don't worry, CartRip. I've survived worse than this. We'll find Patient J and put an end to this madness. Glances back at CartRip Just remember, stealth is key. If we're gonna save Patient J, we gotta be smart about it. So stay low, stay quiet, and follow my lead.
Copy that, Angela. Stealth mode engaged. Lead on.
Whispering, her voice laced with determination Alright, we're getting close to Level 3. Keep your footsteps light, CartRip.
Glances at CartRip with a smirk You know, CartRip, I always knew you had hidden talents.
This ain't no talent. This is survival, Angela. Now, let's hustle.
nods approvingly Survival indeed, CartRip. We need to move quickly and quietly if we're gonna make it outta here in one piece.
