Chapter 4 - The monster

As we were walking through the wasteland we saw something in the distance. It was a humanoid creature but far from it at the same time. It had rough white skin its face was deformed so much that sometimes even split into six pieces and then snapped close. Two of them were fighting over a black star shaped piece of scrap. One snatched it from the other and then back again with a swing.

"What are those?!" Fell asked, disgusted.

""Those"," said Q.P.O.S. with metaphorical air quotes, "are RADzocks. Disgusting beasts driven by hunger.".

Suddenly we were all shoved off the cliff! (Yes, Q.P.O.S. to.) Just as we managed to stand up I was knocked back down by a "RADzock". Fell managed to dodge another attack. Q.P.O.S. shot some more squares out at it. The square taped onto its mouth sealing it shut like duct tape. It quickly ripped the square into pieces but left Fell with enough time time stab the creature in is back. Fell looked like a post apocalyptic with the RADzock's green blood splattered all over him. Meanwhile...

Scientist 1, what is the current status of code rad?

"It is all going to plan sir... Though one thing worries me. The RAD levels are EXTREMELY high around one particular character named: "Fell"sir.".

"Hmmmmm, I shall look into that. Thank you scientist."

"Just doing my job sir!" said the scientist standing up with a salute and straight back.

While Q.P.O.S. scanned the remains of the RADzock and Fell looked around for more dangers, I walked up the cliff to see who pushed us off it. At the top I saw a group of people with swords and daggers. One of them was looking over the edge of the cliff at Fell and Q.P.O.S. I walked up to the one peeking over the edge as he seamed to be their leader. I walked up to him anchored my feet to the ground and shoved him forward but caught him just before he fell. the rest of his group didn't move a muscle. They just stared. I went down on one leg to level with him causing him to come even closer to falling. He gritted his teeth at me and asked "What do YOU want!?" with an aggressive voice.

"Just why YOU shoved US!?!" I replied with the same aggressive tone leaning forward bringing him as close to falling before he would!

"Ok OK!!! We were testing you. we have lots of fortifications back at base but we need more members. However they needed to tested. I felt like just thrusting you into battle would be the best option at the time to see how quick your reaction time was for our report to our boss...
