Another monster dropped dead, and another, and another. Dekowin's claws dug into chunk after chunk of flesh, as the parasite-possessed experiments swarmed over her. Some were squishy, some were crunchy, a few had even exploded moments after dropping dead. She didn't even care.
If she could just kill enough of these, the scene would change. If just enough of these monsters would die, that explosion would stop, right?! If she could just kill enough of them, they could hold off on playing that asshole's game a little bit longer!
“REAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH”
She let out an animalistic cry as one of the experiments sank its teeth into her arm. Her whole body thrashed around, and smashed the the exoskeletoned creature into the ground.
I just have to kill all of them. All of you just DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Her claws swung around wildly, each swipe slicing deep into two or three of the experiments.
That was when she saw them. The other contestants- at least some of them- rushing down the hallway.
That was right... she was never really supposed to kill these things. Her teeth were gritted, as she began stepping towards the group. One of them even looked like he was ready to use his weapon- Lloyd was it? Perfect. No more pretending to be allies. Someone had to die now, and Dekowin's targets were right in front of her.
No one had to say a thing. In an instant Dekowin was off the ground, flying at full speed straight towards Lloyd. With a loud BANG, Dekowin felt a sharp pain in her right wing. The flow of the wind changed, and she could feel her flight path begin to curve, but it was no real threat.
The pain suppressed by pure adrenaline, Dekowin touched down, and immediately kicked off the ground using only her feet, her claws bared straight at Lloyd. But Lloyd wasn't alone. There was another loud BANG, and a sharp pain in Dekowin's side. The sheer concussive force of the weapon knocked her to the ground, but she could bear it. As she struck the ground, she immediately rolled into a low stance, and pounced towards the source of the second gunshot- Marcus? This time however, she fluttered her wings slightly midflight, and doged the third BANG- wherever it had originated from.
Tackling Marcus, she grabbed the arm he had fired from, and began to wrestle the gun from him. Marcus's own strength was a match for hers however, and the two began a tug-of-war for the weapon.
Lloyd aimed carefully with the pistol again. He probably wouldn't be able to shoot one without hitting the other... but he'd probably have to end up killing both of them eventually wouldn't he? He shook his head, thinking like that wouldn't do him any good.
Then, it happened. The swarm of creatures rushed towards the pair- their enemies from before now fought each other, and they would be at an advantage. A single reptile creature leapt at Dekowin and Marcus. Dekowin released her grip, and spun around to defend herself, and Lloyd, seeing his chance, pulled the trigger once more.
The group didn't even completely hear the sound of the last BANG- so much softer than the antimatter explosion moments later.
