[QUOTE="DanMcS, post: 738656, member: 6530"] Eyes, eyes in the mist, glowing red eyes lurking between trees, in thu brush, eyes that would haunt our nightmares for months. "I thought you said there were six of them." "There [i]were[/i] six of them. They brought friends." Lots of friends. Two dozen and more of the creatures, in looming hybrid form, stalked forward out of the trees on all sides. The dull chatter of a TEC-9 announced our intentions; Wolfgang saw two of the creatures bunched together as they walked towards us and took the opportunity. After that things happened very rapidly. Juan acquitted himself well, laying down a deadly silver hail of fire from his M16 until that ran out. His long experience fighting the skin changers showed. He also popped a couple of tear gas grenades into the scrub- the wolf-men, with their heightened sense of smell, found this intolerable, and several fled. After that Juan was down to pistols. Mason and Isaac tried to defend their rescuee, but she panicked and ran off into the woods. The creatures didn't follow, she apparently wasn't considered a threat, or a target. Wolfgang did well, picking his shots and dropping the beasts methodically. Isaac, out in the open after trying to protect Jenny, was surrounded and mauled into unconsciousness. Mason and Wolf fought their way over to him and revived him with one of our carefully hoarded healing potions. Wolfgang grabbed the fake book. With Juan close behind, we fought our way into the woods, and down the path to our vans. Four more of the creatures waited there. The clips for the automatics were long gone, but with the last rounds in our revolvers we brought the last one down. We found Jenny cowering in the brush, and peeled out of the lot for home. *** We dropped McKendrick off, admonishing her to avoid the police and just lay low for a while. She could call us if she needed us. We headed for the manor. Isaac seethed. And where the hell had Daedalus taken off for, anyway? [/QUOTE]
