Lost in the Fog

The Spider's Nest

Izuku was cornered by the Entity's hunters, but had decided to surrender in order to survive. With no power of his own, and exhausted from being hunted, he saw no other choice... and they, surprisingly, obliged. However, there was a catch. He couldn't be allowed to walk in... so he would be carried in. Embarrassed, he covered his face for a moment as he was carried over the shoulder of the man, who walked to the back wall. The blond had introduced himself as Albert Wesker, and the thing he called the Dredge coalesced its darkness to one point, where its misshapen and twisted limbs jutted out. Its bulbous head aligned itself to the center of the shadows. After a moment, the back wall splintered, and opened inward, into a deep cave. The back of the tunnel glowed an ominous red. It was slightly humid as Wesker entered the passage. It soon became too dark for Izuku to see, but the two killers could, regardless of the lighting. Wesker still wore his sunglasses as he walked, meaning that it was probably the Entity that made it impossible for survivors to see here. Soon, though, there was a space that could allow him to see. And what he saw surprised him.

The place would be considered homely under desperate circumstances. Wooden cross beams supported the interior, and a massive furnace lay at the center. The light of its fire was much harsher than the campfire he was familiar with. A bar was inserted into the center, where a cowboy was polishing a glass. That was when he noticed that every killer he'd ever gone against was in the area, watching the procession of three. Gulping, he tried to put a brave face on... but was ultimately unsuccessful. Unfortunately, the trio was stopped by the Legion, back in their usual getup. Unable to see, as he was facing Wesker's back, all Izuku could do was wait.

Frank, wearing the normal Legion getup, spat at the man, "Why the fuck is that kid here?"
Annoyed, Wesker asked, "Special orders. Step aside."
The teen refused. "Not until I get a proper reason."

The man, unknown to Izuku, raised an eyebrow, "Are you trying to make me angry?"
Frank was about to respond when the Dredge got into his face, and roared.

That made three of them back off a bit. Joey, to his credit, wasn't phased. Frank responded, "Tsk. I guess we'll let you go..."

Wesker smirked, "You should have stayed out of my way." It was then that they continued. Izuku could see the faces of the furious Legion duo: Jules and Frank. They hated him now, and didn't hide it. Waving nervously, he found that he passed by a well as Wesker continued. A familiar hand poked out as Sadako clambered out of it. She acknowledged him with a glance, but then moved towards the bar.

They soon entered another tunnel, and darkness obscured his vision.

Soon, they exited into the surface. Or what seemed like the surface. The trees gave way to the elaborate mansion he had seen only once before... at the Twisted Masquerade. Now, however, it was in a new light. A sinister one, that told people to stay away. Izuku could feel Wesker tense slightly, as if he actually felt fear. However, he didn't waver from his path.
