GRRRRRAR!
The eight legged creature charged towards Lewis.
"Damn it! Can't this thing go any faster?"Lewis cursed as he pressed hard on the gas pedal. The convertible bounced precariously as it moved in reverse. Lewis headed for the corner, and in the rear view mirror, he saw the interior ramp that would lead him down to the basement.
Whoosh!
He turned the steering wheel and the convertible car drifted down the slope with speed!
Lewis turned his gaze forward and saw the eight legged creature moving towards him down the slope.
"F*ck! How is this thing so fast?" Lewis was terrified. He didn't expect the creature to be able to keep up with the speed of his car, even if he was in reverse. But to think it was this fast!
Flip!
Using the momentum gained from the drifting, Lewis slowly began turning his car around as he moved down the slope. He knew that he could get a far better acceleration if he swung the car around, which would help him escape from the monster that was pursuing him.
"AHHHH!" The creature opened its mouth and let out the familiar scream of the woman that he had heard, and Lewis gritted his teeth. He felt as though the creature was mocking him for falling for its tricks!
"F*cking b*stard!" Lewis muttered under his breath as he swung the car left, flipping the car around right before he exited the ramp, shifting the gear in an instant and slamming his foot on the gas pedal.
Behind him, the eight legged creature roared loudly and raced forward in pursuit, closing the distance with frightening speed.
RAAAAWR!
Just as Lewis stepped on the gas, the creature leapt high into the air and onto the back of the convertible. It landed with a loud noise, before slamming one of its forelimbs through the rear window of the convertible, completely tearing the clothing surrounding it.
It tried to reach for Lewis' head but right then, the car accelerated forward, and the creature bounced off of the back of the car, crashing down onto the ground while letting out a loud scream.
------------ BEAST SOUL ------------
"Thank f*cking god!" Lewis screamed in joy as he drove back to the entrance of the parking garage. Directly ahead, parked right next to the entrance, Lewis saw a black sedan.
His eyes then immediately shifted to the rear view mirror, and he could see the eight legged creature getting up from the ground, roaring loudly before continuing its pursuit.
"Get out of the way, Harry! We have to leave! Now!" Lewis yelled out. He knew that the black sedan belonged to Detective Harry Stone. Lewis didn't want Harry to barge in and put himself in life threatening danger because of him.
"Lewis!" Detective Harry's head popped out of the window and he waved his arms in Lewis's direction. "Move out of the way! Quickly!"
As he was speaking, the door on the passenger side opened, and Richard exited the vehicle with a large rifle in his hand.
"Watch it!" Detective Harry was shouting. "Don't hit him!"
"He'll be alright, Harry." Special Agent Alan patted his shoulder from the back seat. "Richard is a professional. You don't need to worry."
Lewis looked in front and saw the situation. He then shifted his gaze and turned to look in the rearview mirror. Behind him, he saw the monster was still in pursuit, roaring loudly as it charged forward, rapidly gaining speed, and Lewis knew that he could not slow down. Not now.
Richard held the rifle in his hands with a calm expression on his face. Despite the appearance of the terrifying creature that was rapidly moving in their direction, he slowly and methodically raised the heavy rifle, placed his finger on the trigger and began to aim.
The animal looked forward as it rapidly gained speed, and roared loudly when it made eye contact with Richard.
Richard breathed in and out. And then he pulled the trigger.
BOOM!
Lewis saw a puff of smoke, followed by a bright white streak of light that passed by his car, and stuck the eight legged creature right in the chest.
GRRRRRAR!
The creature's eyes popped wide as it flung backwards in the air, before smashing into the ground with a loud noise, and it roared loudly.
Richard stared at the fallen creature with his intense gaze as Lewis raced past Detective Harry's black sedan, stopping right outside of the parking garage, and multiple police vehicles came into his view.
"I thought I told you not to do anything risky and wait for backup." Detective Harry yelled out from the driver's seat of his car.
"How about we discuss this after we've dealt with the monster?" Lewis voiced his opinion, and Harry shook his head. He then turned his gaze towards Richard. "What is the situation, Agent Edgerton?" He asked. "Is it dead?"
Richard didn't answer. His gaze was still fixed on the eight legged creature that was lying still on the ground. His cold and emotionless eyes scanned the creature's body as he raised his rifle once again, aiming at the animal.
"It looks dead, doesn't it?" Harry turned around looked at Alan, who shrugged his shoulders.
Richard stared at the motionless creature for a few more seconds, before he placed his hand on the trigger and pulled it.
BOOM!
An explosive sound rang out, followed by another bright streak of light that collided with the creature's body, flinging it back yet again.
"AHHHHH!" A loud ear piercing scream echoed throughout the basement floor of the parking garage sending a chill down Harry's spine. It resembled the voice of a young woman, but it came from the mouth of the terrifying creature!
BAM!
The creature slammed against the back wall and struggled to find its footing, yet it could not get up.
BOOM!
Richard fired one more shot, this time hitting the creature right on the head, and the impact caused the back of his head to slam against the wall.
Splurt!
Blood splattered on the wall, and the creature growled weakly before the light in its eyes faded away. It was finally dead.
"What the hell…." Harry mumbled to himself as he watched Richard slowly approaching the dead creature, and breathed in and out.
Alan looked at Harry and shook his head. That was how everyone reacted. He had seen the same scene play out multiple times before.
He then opened the door and stepped out of the car. "What do you think?" Alan asked Richard as he began walking towards him.
Richard knelt down in front of the dead creature and stared at its corpse. "I don't think he's your guy." He turned his head and faced Alan.
"Are you sure?" Alan asked, his forehead wrinkled. He was not happy about the conclusion that Richard had come to.
"I am sure, Alan." Richard licked his lips and nodded his head. "You don't think they'll send more hunters, huh?"
"Well, you know how they are." Alan tapped his chin. "FID wants to do this as stealthily as possible. They want it tightly under wraps. I doubt they'll send any reinforcements. Not until sh*t hits the fan."
Richard turned his attention towards the dead creature and sighed, "..F*ck.."
"... by the way," Alan pointed at the corpse of the creature and asked. "Is this the same creature that you found in the Arayal Hills?"
"No. That was a different one," Richard shook his head. "It was smaller than most variants. Had a body structure that was similar to a human being."
Alan's eyes narrowed. "Don't tell me..."
Richard nodded. "You might want to try persuading the superiors."
