Growling the Hunter sat up sharply. Its whole body was warmer than usual and smoke was drifting from the scorched metal. Looking down the creature realised that the metal that covered the torso was burnt and split, bearing its fleshy skin. Short blasts of sound came from its mouth as it called to its mate...who never responded. Turning its head it saw the other Hunter lying on its back, whisps of electricity darting over the metal that covered its body. Slowly the Hunter stood up, mumbling something under its breath. As it stood, its metallic claws came out, two of its claws on its right paw jammed however, sticking in the shafts that they were normally stored. Shaking its paw, it tried to un-stick its blades. After 10 seconds of trying the creature merely gave up and proceeded towards the shack with most of its claws bared.
Blue: "Having a little problem?"
In response the Hunter merely snarled and quickened its pace. Smelling perspiration coming from its prey it knew that this time it would easily take them out with a few swipes of its bladed paws. And as it took its 5th step something hit it, hard, in the head. The creature stumbled to the ground, falling on its side. Smelling the scent of its attacker the Hunter then barked in pure fury.
Hunter: "Tobias...(!)"
Attempting to climb to its feet to battle its prey, that it had been tracking for around a week, it felt yet another blow. This time to its back. The metal armour clanked and creaked, but the Hunter was not going to give up so easily and activated its stun arrow. As it took aim Tobias swung what smelled like a large branch and hit the metal projectile. Breaking it and forcing sparks to spurt out of the indentation that was formed. Not content on disabling its secondary attack Tobias proceeded to beat the creature further. Bringing the wood down on its head and watching as blood trickled out of the corners of the mask, brining his heavy boots down on the vulnerable chest.
Tobias: "Die...Die you piece of shi..."
He halted in mid-sentence as he pulled back the branch for one final blow, however, when he attempted to bring the weapon down he found it had caught on something. Turning to see what had happened he discovered that Dementa was holding it. She snarled and snatched the branch from his hands and then rapidly grabbed hold of his neck, her gloved claws stopping her curse from taking action. Lifting him off the ground she snarled at the pathetic Orkhid.
Dementa: "Why did you come here? What do you want?"
Tobias attempted to reply but could not, his airways were slowly being crushed by the creature. After what seemed like hours but was merely seconds Dementa cast Tobias through the air and into a thick tree. Tobias hit the bark with a 'Thud' his chest and head connecting with the obstruction and immediatly knocking him unconcious. Tobias collapsed to the ground, his left foot twitching as if it had a life of its own.
Dementa: "Lets get out of here, eh?"
She turned to the shack were the victims of the attack were situated, a murmur of agreement rippled through the night air and slowly they picked themselves up and started towards Pyke.
