Chapter 3: Between a rock and a hard place
A soldier walked down the hall, his boots clicking on the tiles of the facility. Each step writing and rewriting his fate, and unkowningly forming his own dimise. For he has a stalker. A shadow moves in the rafters. A Ui-Kes. The beasts plauge the planet from teh wastelands to the greenest of gardens. The creatures are perfect hunters. The Ui-Kes hits the floor with a thud, the soldier, turnig around had only time to let out a yelp before the creature lunged out at him off its 6 boney legs and snached him. The Insectoid threw him about like a rag doll and shreded his corpse, tosing it aside like a toy. The beast had 6 boney legs ending in sharp razor sharp claws. It had 2 front scyth like mandibles and a head that went forward into a mouth, no eyes. The creature had ribs exposed on its body, were from the ribs a thick, spine like tail attached it to the bottem, alowing it to lung out at insane speeds. The Ui-kes scutled on looking for the rest of the threat. 3 soldiers poped out at the end of the all and opened fire. The bullets barely pierce its thick carapace. The creature took off at a recless speed and lunged out, 2 soldiers fleeing in fear while the other let out a cry for help, but before he could finish it, the creature impacted, denting the metal behind him, snaping the body in half in a spray of bone, inard and blood. The killer persuded the fleeing soldiers. An Automated turret poped down for the ceiling in the middle of the hall, filled with ripper rounds, opened fire, shreding the creature like paper. The horrors remains lay one the ground. But a scyth came down through the turret and colapsed the ceiling, and another droped down, but this time, it didn't live so long. "DIE SLAVE OF THE DEMON QUEEN!!" Xavier had lept out of the shadows and brought his Kiez(that blade thing he has in the pic) down through the Ui-Kes's skull, cuting it in half, spilling its blood. "Computer scan the perimiter." "SCANING......SCAN COMPLEATE, PRIMITER IS CLEAR SIR." "Good..." Xaiver walked off back into the titianium door at the end of the second hall.
Onisasha got into the dropship, now adored in his battle armour, and Rane fallowed, Kai also entering. 2 Heavy DEO soldiers got in and sat down next to the general. The dropship took off. Kai looked out the window, Seeing a forest below him, vast and open, but littered with patrol units . He sighed, thinking of the beutiy that was wasted by these mechanical abombinations. He spoted a large tower sticking out of the trees. "Oni, What the hell is that?" Oni looked out the window. "Ah, yes, thats our target. Pilot.." "Yessir?" The pilot said through the com. "Set us down near that tower." "Yessir." The dropship lowered twords the ground, and then opened. The 2 soldiers got out followed by Rane, Oni, and Kai. The soldier's moved twords the tower but suddenly movement in the bush's forced them to stop. Out of the 2 bush's emerged 2 Xebnas warriors weilding strange staff like weapons. The creatures yelled something in a strange tounge and went into the clearing were the tower was. A few moments later a larger Xebnas came out, adorned in a cloak and siting in a chair with strange segmented spider legs coming out of them. "What is it you want Oni, we have done no raiding or assualts." said the ambassidor. "I come in need of your help Kezain....A little problem has arose with project Destruction and Rebirth....and I'm going to need some...back up..." said Oni. Kezain said aloud, "Fine..I will help you....because I know the consiquence's if I do not..now go, I will send a ship filled with warriors and builders for your in the morning....." "A wise choice..." and with that, they left...
