The sweltering heat sends beads of sweat down his brow his disheveled hair extends in every direction from underneath his helmet, seemingly trying to escape the unholy foul smell that he emits...
Leuitenate: Damn These freaking shits, they're all around us....
Sniffing could be heard from outside of the vent just feet away and the murmur between the soldiers halted, suddenly the vent rang out with the noise from furious scratching, one blade ripped through and then another, suddenly a head popped in, a soldier pannicked and emptied his magazine into it, the beasts head now in pieces, its blood splattered against the walls and its body hanging from the vent
Commander: **** everybody move out!,
as they frantically crawl in the confining space. the creatures could be heard moving to and fro all around them, the shooting went in every direction with no way of telling where the beasts stood
Commander: hold your fire until you can see the hair on their backs!
as they approached the end of the vent slamming could be heard and the walls shook with each one, through the holes in the vent the commander saw an onos ramming the wall, apperantly trying to shake the vent loose <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Commander: hold your ground, we'll fight from here!
with that he began to fire upon the onos and everyone followed suit firing upon the sounds of running on the vent around them until finally the running, the scratching and the sniiffing ceased, and the commander called out to another group
Commander: this is Commander Slappy duck over.... Commander slappy duck over...
another voice rang out within the confines of the vent, they had responded
?: this is doofy dog, whats your situation? we heard some heavy fire ringing out from your direction, how bad are the lossses?"
<!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> A whiny, nasal voice confesses: "We were ambushed and took heavy losses, but a few of us managed to escape through the vents, Commander Sparks was killed, im now acting commander, everything looks fine now, we're going to make our way towards you, over...
Commander doofy dog: copy that
right after communication ended a scout was sent out to get a grip on the situation, nothing was heard from him for quite some time and there was no sign of a struggle, they assumed he got through but sent another one out to make sure
no word was heard from him either, they radioed back in to base
"the scouts we sent out dissapeared, neither one radioed back but we didnt hear any signs of struggle, but we're sitting ducks up here, we're moving out"
as he stuck his head out through the vent the luster of a claw gleamed within inches of his face, just missing the commander's throat, a snarl rang out, the commander fired upon it heard its body smack the ground and jumped out, there were 6 of them, and they were coming from every direction, he ordered his troops down the ladder
Commander: Get your **** in gear and move out!
blood guts and bullets were everywhere, screams and snarls filled the air if you werent lucky enough to go into shellshock, the few that took the time to notice the gruesomeness of the situation never saw the light of day again, the rest moved forward shooting and running as if their lives depended on it... and its a good thing too cause they did!
after passing a corner the commander ordered three of the men to hold their ground and moved on, with the remaining two, they heard screaming and the firing ceased by the time the met the next corner
soon after the skulks caught up, 3 closed in and the privates opened fire, while looking back he saw 2 fall but the last was on his skirt tails, looking over his shoulder he could see the claw stretched out right next to his side but the body crumpled up and slammed into the ground, rolling and bouncing, he turned his head forward and ran ahead
they reached the site and the sore eyes of the commander werent allowed to recoop, the base looked in ruins, bodies and beasts sprawled out across the area, but someone seeemed to be hiding just ahead, as he approached he saw the name tag, it was doofy dog, slappy duck waved and cried out, but doofy dog was dazed, he had seen alot of blood spilled today...
Doofy duck showed no emotion after hearing the horrible news, in truth, he couldnt show emotion, his body was souless, he moved only becaused something else desired him to do so, he heard only because something else wished to hear, his whole being was just something elses tool...
nonetheless slappy duck couldnt hide his joy as he approached him, he had thought he was the last one left, there was still hope
just feet away from the doofy dog he noticed something odd about him, something was undulating from behind his neck, pulsating in a rythmic fashion,
doofy duck raised his gun and fired
