[QUOTE="talien, post: 4878101, member: 3285"] [b]Evil Stars: Part 6 – Hasta la Vista[/b] There was the sound of wrenching metal. “Hammer?” asked Jim-Bean. “Come back.” Archive and Jim-Bean exchanged a worried glance. “What?” asked Star. “What?!” “Hammer’s not answering his comm.” Jim-Bean loaded a pistol. “Stay close to me.” Archive drew his Glock and followed a worried Star out the door to the main chamber. The double doors had been torn off their hinges with incredible force. The proof of impact was evident in Hammer, who lay underneath one of the doors, unconscious. Another door across the way had been struck so hard that it was nearly folded in half. “The armory,” said Archive. “He’s going to get his weapons.” “Maybe. I don’t plan to stick around to find out. Grab Hammer.” Archive dragged Hammer out from underneath the door and onto the elevator in the center of the room, onto the elevator platform. Jim-Bean and Star joined him. He punched the red button labeled UP. Jim-Bean rifled through his bag. “What are you doing?” asked Star. “Leaving a parting gift,” said Jim-Bean. He pulled out a few blocks of C4, with detonators attached. “Courtesy of the armory Billy is raiding.” Just before the elevated platform cleared the ceiling of the entrance, Jim-Bean rolled the C4 through the opening. “This is a concrete facility,” said Jim-Bean. “A blast inside this thing will cook everything in it.” They exited through the bathroom. Tom Bekley stood at the register. “Got trouble boys?” “Big trouble,” said Jim-Bean. “You’d better clear out, something big and pissed off just tore through our holding cell.” Old Tom reached underneath the register and pulled out a shotgun. “You boys go on ahead. Me and Rose will buy you some time.” “Hey, I appreciate the gesture old man but…” Jim-Bean caught sight of the old woman, who had pulled a huge revolver from behind a can of beans on the shelf. She spun the chamber expertly to check that it was loaded. “Never mind. Good luck.” Tom cocked the rifle. “Go! Git now!” They piled Hammer into the car and took off. The radio was turned to a hard rock station and a God’s Lost Children song blared from the speakers. “Can you see my body Can you see it grow Do you see it throbbing Won't you watch it glow” “Shut that $#!+ off!” snarled Jim-Bean. Star turned the radio off. Archive put his hands on Hammer’s forehead and whispered a phrase. His eyes fluttered open. “What happened?” “You got hit by a door,” said Jim-Bean. “Courtesy of Billy.” “What IS Billy?” Hammer asked Star accusingly. “I don’t…I don’t know!” whimpered Star. “We were into the occult, all of us, and I think he took some kind of oath…” “An oath?” asked Archive, his interest piqued. “What kind of oath?” “It was…unspeakable.” “Uh oh,” said Jim-Bean, peering in the driver’s side mirror. “What now?” asked Hammer. “I think Billy’s catching up to us.” Archive turned around. “On what?” Billy was tucked, his newly acquired Harley Davidson motorcycle gunning the engine as it closed the distance between them. “You know,” said Jim-Bean, “I’m beginning to think having an automotive shop over the vault wasn’t such a good idea after all.” [/QUOTE]
