As the clock struck the time of 1:15 in the Der Riese facility of Group 935, a man in his near 50's laughed, as he sent away his former commander and his daughter, damning them to an unknown fate in the experimental teleporter.

"Goodbye, Doctor Maxis." The man laughed as he hit the button on the control panel, and the room lit up as the young girl's crying stopped, and both of them were gone.

"This ain't funny Doc!" a grizzled American man walked up behind him, holding his MR6 pistol out towards the Doctor, he was quickly followed by a Japanese man armed with a Katana, and a Russian man armed with a shotgun.

"Turn around." The Russian man spoke gruffly. "Slowly." The Japanese man added quickly afterwards. The Doctor finally turned around to look at them.

"Do you know… who I am?" he spoke with annoyance in his voice as he scowled at the three men, the American man seemed to roll his eyes before sarcastically responding "Yeah, we know, that's why you better do exactly as we say."

The Russian man nodded in agreement "A great evil approaches, there is a chain of events that must be set in motion." Suddenly, a growl was heard as the undead began clawing at the windows of the building, distracting all of the men.

The Japanese man was the first to recover from the shock "The future hangs by a thread, you must awaken the test subjects!" the American and Russian moved towards the barrier as they began firing at the undead hordes, the Japanese man drew his Katana from it's sheathe, continuing to watch the German scientist, the German seems to switch his attention to the teleporter, which seems to have started doing something on it's own.

The American man turned around after shooting a zombie in the head, and looked at the German scientist "Richtofen! Whatever you're thinking, don't do it!" the Russian man quickly added "You do not want to meet what is on the other side of that door!" the Japanese man finally finished with "You cannot comprehend the great evil you could unleash!"

Doctor Richtofen merely smirks and cheerfully pushes the button on the control panel, ignoring the warnings of the three, the teleporter opens to reveal a man strikingly similar to Richtofen, but with a moustache, and black hair, the new arrival stepped out of the teleporter as Richtofen removes his hat, the new arrival pulls out a pistol, and scatters Richtofen's brain across the floor.

"Dammit Richtofen I though we were done with this!" the American shakes his head angrily as the new Richtofen leans down and checks the corpse of his other self. "What can I say Dempsey, things change." He responds to the American man as he absorbs the dead Richtofen's soul into a small spherical orb.

The Russian man turns towards Richtofen "Only a fool would dare to change history!" Richtofen walks to the other men and regroups on a small catwalk overseeing the rest of the facility; he shakes his head as he turns to the others "I am no fool. What I do, I do to secure a better tomorrow." Dempsey scoffs at him "Well, let's see if we live to see it." All four men jump from the catwalk and begin fighting the horde of zombies.

Richtofen quickly turns to the Russian man "Nikolai! Help me get the power on, quickly, it won't be easy surviving through this without our perk machines." Nikolai nods in response, heading with Richtofen towards the power switch, as Dempsey turns to the Japanese man "Hey Tak, if they are headed that way, we should head for one of the teleporters and link it when the power is on." Takeo nods and follows Dempsey out of the courtyard.

Nikolai and Richtofen quickly encountered a group of Undead, Nikolai fired at the first one, blowing off it's head with his shotgun, Richtofen quickly followed suit, using his pistol to down the two zombies behind it, they both continued onwards, quickly making it to the power switch, Richtofen flipped the switch, restoring power to the facility.

Meanwhile, Takeo and Dempsey fought through a few hellhounds as they made their way through the animal testing area, Dempsey quickly dispatched one, using his bowie knife to cut it's head off, Takeo used his Katana to cut another on in half, "I take no joy in killing an animal." Dempsey nodded "Neither do I Tak, but we have to." They both forged on, making it to the first teleporter, "Tak! You go and wait at the mainframe, I'll stay here and activate the link and defend the teleporter." Takeo nodded as he headed back out of the room towards the main courtyard.

Nikolai and Richtofen continued their slog through the undead, finally reaching the main courtyard themselves, they saw Takeo pushing a button on the mainframe's control panel, linking it with the teleporter, causing it to flash and teleport whatever was on the other side, however, Dempsey wasn't there."

Nikolai scratched his head "Wasn't the American supposed to show up here? Or are your experiments really that badly built Doctor." Richtofen laughed sarcastically "No Nikolai, if he didn't show up here, the problem was on his end, let's go and make sure he is alright." The other two nod in agreement as they head back towards the teleporter, arriving soon after, with a pile of corpses in their wake, but Dempsey was still nowhere to be found. Richtofen scatched his head now in confusion "The teleporter must have taken him somewhere else, quickly, we must follow." The three men quickly climbed into the teleporter, activating it, and they disappeared in a quick flash of light.


Richtofen was the first to wake up "Ach… mein head…" he began to hear voices coming from behind him "Oh no… I am again beset by the voices of the damned! And the doomed!" he hung his head in defeat before a gloved hand reached out to him. "I don't know about all that, but there are better places to take a nap than on the ground you know."


Author's Note: Thanks for reading the prologue to the second piece of fanfiction I've ever written, for anyone who doesn't know anything about call of duty zombies, seriously just google it, I promise you'll find anything and everything about it's storyline and characters, etc. etc. oh and speaking of storylines and characters, I obviously don't own Fire Emblem or Call of Duty (really wish I did though) they are owned by Nintendo and Activision respectively, reviews are definitely welcome!
