After helping his Squad Mates escort the animals into the sewers, Leo turns to observe the place one last time, making sure that nobody was left behind. He takes another look up, and smiles behind his mask when he notices the cameras are all either facing
up or at the
walls instead of the ground... his contacts were already in the system here, it seems... the mission is going smoothly, for now.
Seeing the area empty, he holsters his weaponry to climb down the ladder, pausing only to carefully, and quietly, move the manhole back in place over them.
When he reaches the bottom of the ladder, he draws his weapon again, and motions to his team. "
~Silencers.~" As if to demonstrate his motion, he quickly begins to twist a silencer onto the barrel of his rifle, and following that, his pistols.
As the squad would likely know, an area as concentrated as a sewer would spell trouble if the loudness of a gun were fired from within... and not just because of the risk of bullets ricocheting, or the sounds drawing unwanted attention. The loud banging
alone would potentially risk making their animal friends, whose ears are unprotected and, likely, more sensitive, go deaf due to the sound waves bouncing around the concentrated area.
With his silencers on his weapons, he flips the flashlight of his rifle to "ON", enables his Goggles' NV Mode, and takes the lead, carefully walking through the muck and rancid waters, while keeping his eyes peeled around their front, from the 10:00 Position to the 2:00.
As he begins to walk, however, he feels a somewhat disturbing bump from his right foot... the distinct feeling of bumping into a body of some sort.
"
~Hold~" he signs to his squad, before shining his flashlight to the immediate right. He backs up momentarily, and gasps when the wide spread of his flashlight catches hold of something he, in all his training, didn't expect to see.
While he knew that there would likely be dead bodies inside the sewers, he didn't expect the numbers to be very high. However, it would seem their "Ringmaster" had a bit more history behind his cruel actions than merely that which were the speculations that began a few months back... a
lot more.
There, before him, is a room cut through the pipe, and dug through the dirt. Within the room, perhaps thirty to forty body bags lay. Some of them, having been torn open in some areas, where decomposing paws and other limbs hang loosely. A few of their faces even lay exposed, of varying species, from cats and dogs, to lions and bears... all of which, were once animals of the
Intelligent kind.
Though familiar with the battlefield, Leo closes his eyes and mentally prepares himself for the reactions of his squad mates, and most of all, the animals that likely have known some of these unfortunate victims.
