" Itarogon!", father called my name completely stagnating my work. All I hoped was for him to assign me with something reasonable.
The last thing I wanted was to go out looking for those two boneheads...." You called". " Itarogon, yes I need you to get me this package. Apparently the mailman mixed up the deliveries", " again?", I asked with so much disappointed in this towns post services.
" Unfortunately. At this rate we should just move to that address," " father please, we've lived here for over sixteen years. Moving would simply debilitate the others.", " you really are your mom's child, always caring behind bars. One day you'll have to step out the box", he said.
Present
BANG!
The floor I stood on popped to splinters. The sight of Migo laying unconsciously on the ground was disturbing. Two other Armadillats rushed to him. Pathetic.
I jumped through the hall with a smoke cannon in each of my hands, I gassed the room. With a quick transition of weapons I pulled the net cannon off my back and bagged both of them in two nets.
The smoky room silenced, before the third Armadillat fired a sonic blast from behind me. My body lunched out of the room and with a crush I landed on to the second floor.
The AT wasn't done, it jumped in the bottom and to my surprise it's body seemed to be producing electricity. I wasn't going to forgive myself after what was about to happen, but I had no choice.
Tucked in the back of my left boot was a crossbow and on the right was a six arrow cartage. In the three seconds it took for me to get from laying on my back to standing, I rolled backwards to my feet with the crossbow loaded in my palms (I pulled the cartage out loaded it into the magazine of the crossbow).... with three shots to the head it dropped dead.
" Rest well, vermin ".
Those seconds I experienced were a simple reminder of how mom and dad must have suffered, fighting there way to escape.
AHHHHHKKKKK!
A scream echoed from the basement. With a blast of what looked like a blue luminous liquid, the basement burnt. A large creature rushed out of it. It was quick and big...it didn't look like anything we've ever encountered before.
It moved with so much intelligence and cunning persuasion, forcing me to turn were it want me to. Ready to deliver the last three shots from my arrow, I aimed for the kitchen. A blue and green mist rushed out of the room thanks to the sound of a powerful exhale...two blue dots shinned at me from the dark.
A large palm stepped out followed by the other, it's fur was black with arms as long as a fully grown man. It's chest was decomposed and full of the liquid, it face was completely eaten up... only the skull was left. It had a beared as long as it's body that seemed to act as it's tail as well, the top of it's head had bone extensions, the made it look as though it wore a crown.
This was no ordinary AT....
FLESH, BONES, BLOOD, ORGANS I WANT IT ALL. YOU HUMANS WILL FILL US UP FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. HAHAHAHAHAH.... I'M THE PICNICKING OF MY KIND, THUS I GET TO HAVE THE FIRST BITE!
