Re: Into the Darkness - Part Two
Who: The scrapheap challenge team
where: Kwik-Fit planet
When: after Efof lost his sight.
Jack had climbed a large, and nicely rounded pile of scrap, and was
gazing over the landscape, outside the scrap yard.
"Dammit, I knew kwik fit fitters did nothing but fit, but you'd think
they'd at least plant some trees..." he said, as he turned back to the
inside of the srapyard, and cocked his rifle, the small LCD screen on
it lit up, and zoomed in.
"there you are my little beauty" he said softly, the scope on his
rifle pointing square at the creatures head. He zoomed out slightly
as it moved, seeing Efof left underneath it.
"Dammit!" he said, having to spend a moment to calm down, before
lining the rifle up again. He could see the monster running towards
him, from the other side of the scrapyard.
"thats it, keep running..." he said, as he touched the trigger,
sending a piece of steel flying through the air, an armour piercing
tip, with an explosive core that would tear its way through an inch
thick piece of steel. This beast on the other hand, happened to have
a natural armour twice as strong as an inch thick piece of steel...
The bullet caught the creature square in the chest, where most beings
heart is, it exploded, but the creature kept running.
"SMEG!" Jack shouted, and fired again, this time going for its knee, a
place usually quite weak. It worked to the point of slowing the
creature down long enough to take a few more shots... By the time it
got to him, it was slow, and was having difficulty using one of its
many arms. With the other limbs it had, it leapt up the scrapheap to
where Jack stood, and grabbed him before he had a chance to move.
More special effects that would make even the guys that made the magic
roundabout flinch at how terribly poor it was, and Jack was dropped
back to the ground. He picked his gun up again, and looked over the
scrapheap, unable to see the creature anymore, he began to walk down
the heap. At the bottom, he then became aware of what the creature
had taken... A small spacecraft fell to the ground beside him, but it
made no sound.... none whatsoever.
"Smeg... the bloody thing took my hearing..." he said, must've been
quite loud, a bit like if he was listening to music too loud for him.
He began walking around the scrapheap, looking for Efof and Mk.7, or
even the new guy, anyone would be good.
