Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

"Easy there, Nancy! Down, girl!" The American shouted, making sure he had a firm grip on the slimy, sharp-edged vertebrae that made up the creature's tail. "Okay, I think we've got her!"

Rei took a moment to glare at her familiar (which had doubled around and landed on her shoulder, no longer immolated), and then turned a much shakier gaze on the monster and its captors. "What IS that thing?"

"Necromorph," Snake said obliviously as he held the creature's tail down near the end, keeping the blade from thrashing about. "Don't worry, she's not as dangerous as she looks."

"Heearaagaaargh!" the necromorph howled, its pointed teeth snapping viciously as it tried to bite Ranma's hands.

"It's... It's a 'she'?" Ami asked numbly. Really, there was a lot of better questions she wanted to ask, but it was the only thing she could currently think of while staring at the terrifying beast.

"Well, it was, at least. Say good night to the nice folks, Nancy, you're going back to your room!" Snake admonished. "Anyway, we checked the sub-levels pretty thoroughly, but we didn't find jack so far... hey, little help, Commander?"

Kyle, who looked to be completely unaffected by the whole incident, finally took action, walking up to the necromorph and carelessly grabbing one of its wrists.

Asuka, who had decided not to comment on any of this and just pretend like it never happened, called out as the three men started hauling the monstrosity back toward the elevator. "Saotome-kun, you're staying here. I have a job for you."

"Huh? Oh, sure," Ranma stumbled away as he let go of the alien-infested corpse, dodging awkwardly as it lashed out at him the moment it was free. He got away unscathed though, and cast a worried glance back at Kyle, who didn't seem to notice when the creature bit onto his leg and started chewing.

Once Snake, Kyle, and the space zombie that she absolutely REFUSED to acknowledge (the thought of zombie aliens was far too ridiculous) had left, she cleared her throat meaningfully. "Now that all three of you are here, Saotome, Tsukino, and Hino, I can brief you on your first mission. Follow me, please."
