Abandon all hope; never again shall we see the light.
The black car, glossed over in the darkness, pulled up to a grand ivory building. It shone in the late evening moonlight but the magnificent architecture that stood before it cast a dingy shadow; about thirty steps led up to main building, and on the outside six tall pillars held up a grand domed roof.
A man stepped out of the car, held arm-in-arm by two burly men both dressed in tan suits, their faces stern an emotionless. The man they were holding was skinny and old; he wore round glasses that balanced on his nose and he had messy ginger hair and stubbled that accounted for sleepless nights, though he did not look tired. More, he looked... eccentric. At the top of the steps masked in the shadows of the building stood a different man, he too surrounded by tall men in suits stood around him in what looked like a protective circle. As the skinny man was lead up the steps he squinted to try and see into the blackness.
'Oh, g-good evening, Sir.' He murmured, his eyes now wide with concentration. The skinny man had a thick mix of accents, dashed with Spanish, German, English. He shrank back into himself, afraid in the precense of the man in the shadows, who at this moment step forward and gestured to his guards standing around him. 'Away.' He said and with a flick of his wrist, the guards slunk away into the night. The skinnier man was released and suddenly it was just the two shadows cast on the steps. 'I have heard about your... experiments.' The taller man spat. He too had an accent, but it was strictly German, maybe Austrian. 'Urm...' the smaller man stuttered. 'Yes, the Hounds.' The taller man finally stood so that his face was dashed with enough moonlight to distinguish. The smaller man shuddered. 'Tell me more.' The taller man commanded.
'Well, Sir, their mere existence was a huge scientific feat... the best, most famous since the discovery of how to create actual biological life at all. Their sheer size makes them strong fast and with an impressive stamina, meaning they should be perfect for most jobs man required.'
'Even warfare?'
'...Potentially...What do you plan to do with them, Sir, if I may ask?'
'You will see Doctor, you will see.'
