When it connected the shot exploded killing the beast leaving nothing but junks of flesh everywhere which started to have black smoke come out of them.
"It's over." I said to my self in relief as the beast finally stopped and I lay down to process what happened.
"Yes... it's over" the other voice said in agreement.
"Ah, you still here?" I questioned the voice as it was quiet for most of the fight after I got on the cage.
"My... hands hurt." The voice said while I looked at my own hand to see my left one clawed and bitten.
"Yeah, my left hand is really messed up." I stated as it didn't hurt at all but looked really bad.
"My... hand" The voice said rather quietly.
"Don't start with that." I said back thinking that this person is messing with me.
"Now that I'm not fighting for my life, I got to find that person and get out of here." I stated as I try and find the blood trail which became more difficult now that there was blood all over the room.
"What... person?" The voice asked as I was looking around.
"This blood trail belong to the person next to me, I was trying to find them before that monster started attacking me." I said back thinking the person I was talking to was not the same person. They must be bleeding out an unable to speak.
"That... is my blood" the voice replied to me which made me pause for a second.
"This blood trail was yours?" I said in surprise "Ok then, lets find you and get out of here. Is there a monitor room or something in this cave?" This person must be in one in order to move this Exosuit. They must be hurt or bleeding out given the blood trail.
"What...do you mean?" The voice said
"I mean lets find each other and get out of this place" I replied back as I look to see if there is a secret room or something behind the cages.
"I.. am here." the voice said in a neutral tone.
"Yes, but where in the room are you?" I question as I continue to look around finding nothing but that black smoke and piles of flesh from the beast that were here.
"Is the smoke coming towards me?" I thought as for some reason all the smoking bits were gathering around me. I started to hear a beeping sound and didn't know where it was coming from.
'Maybe its just in my head.' I thought maybe I'm getting to stressed about everything that happened.
"I.. am here." the voice said again.
"Saying 'I'm here' doesn't help me find you, can you be more descriptive?" I said trying not to lash out or sound like a jerk. I don't think I succeeded.
"I... am this." My left hand started to move on its own again and pointed to my stomach. my left hand started to look better than when I last looked at it.
"Your in my belly?" I said in an attempt to make a joke since I don't think this person meant to point at me.
"No... this is me." the voice said this again pointing to my stomach harder.
"Ok, this is getting us nowhere fast." I stated and tried to look around more but then my legs stopped moving and I started to walk out of the room.
"Hey, why cant I control my legs?" I said freaking out
"We... are leaving." The voice said in anger.
"Where am I going? Hey." I said in protest.
"What about you, I am not leaving you here." I said in an attempt to try and reason with the person controlling me.
"I... am here." The voice said as I left the cave faster than when I enter
"Seriously, I followed the blood trail here and you said that it was yours. You could be bleeding out as we speak. That wasn't a little amount either, that was a lot." I tried again to reason with the voice.
"The trail... was made when I left... this cave." The voice said as I saw daylight again from the place I opened my eyes. The place I started this hole thing.
"So your saying that the trail started in the cave and lead here. Then where are you now?" I said because I am starting to get confused.
"I... am here." The voice said again and pointed to my head this time, when it touched I could heat a metallic sound as if it was touching metal.
"Am I wearing the helmet of Blood Stalk as well, I could see so clear that I didn't even notice." I stated.
"Should I take it off and show you that this is me, where do you even see?" I said while pointing to my head with my right hand.
"Ok..." the voice said as both hands went to take the helmet off not getting conformation on how or if the voice could even see what was happening.
As I try and take my helmet of it started to get a video grain to it and started to have a blue hue to things.
"How do you take this off." I stated as I tried to take it off when I found two buttons on the side that I pressed and the sound of steam popping and the helmet felt looser.
When I started to take the helmet off my perspective started to shift. I suddenly grew taller by a few inches for a few seconds before shrinking by a foot.
I lost control of my body again and I started to turn around against my will.
"What, what's happening?" I said as the only explanation is that the person I have been talking too is responsible.
When I stopped moving I saw something something that left me speechless. I was staring at a face I did not recognize in the armor of Blood Stalk, the same armor I have been wearing all this time.
The face was bloody and covered is scars and burn marks, with singed hair I could not tell the color of. When the person spoke I got chills as I recognize the voice.
"I... am here"
