[QUOTE="talien, post: 4626654, member: 3285"] [b]Convergence: Part 13a – Showdown[/b] All three of the agents were armed with dart rifles. They strode into the church. “What makes you think it will be in here?” asked Guppy. “Because this is where a god goes to be worshipped.” Hammer pointed at a figure sitting in the pew in the front row. The agents converged on the figure from three different directions. It was Adams. He turned and opened his mouth and spoke without moving it. “[FONT="Impact"]You killed my disciple. You shouldn’t have done that. As punishment, I will make you serve—[/FONT]“ Hammer drew his Glock and emptied it into Adams’ suit. “I hate monologues.” The body collapsed. Something slithered underneath it into a crack in the ground. “I think we made it angry,” said Jim-Bean. “Look out!” shouted Hammer. Flesh-colored tentacles waved silently behind Jim-Bean, twelve feet in the air. Jim-Bean dove as the tentacles smashed down, tearing pews in half. Guppy fired a dart into the thing. The blue fluid pumped into it. One tentacle shot out and wrapped around the life-sized crucifix. Wielding it like a club, it swept the crucifix along the pews, blasting wood everywhere. The priest’s body went flying. The agents scattered in all directions. The tentacles writhed and twisted and foamed, breaking open in sores as the bacteria destroyed the binding structure of the amorphous tissue. Hammer fired at the wounds with his Glocks. The pustules exploded and the thing flinched, tentacles whipping spastically in pain. They tore loose from the rest of the creature, flopping and wriggling in the church. The amorphous tissue withdrew, out of sight, creeping deeper into the subterranean passageways, no doubt shedding more pieces of itself. “Ha!” shouted Guppy. “Take that!” “That thing is huge,” said Jim-Bean. “It would have to be, to take out a car engine,” said Guppy. “That’s not what I mean. I think it’s a lot bigger than what we just saw.” Hammer reloaded his pistols. “How do you figure?” “I think this protomatter … I think it absorbs flesh,” said Jim-Bean. “That’s why there’s piles of non-organic matter. And by absorbing flesh it only gets bigger.” “But this thing absorbed the entire town,” began Guppy. “And all of Copperfield’s team…” Suddenly the ground rumbled and heaved under their feet. “Out,” shouted Hammer, “Everybody out!” They ran towards the exit as the church began to collapse.
