RP DEPTHS: The old city.

"Uhh..Any clue if this'll be one of those, 'cornered animal' moments or straight up 'acid blood' situation?"

 

Sasha lets out an annoyed grunt as he holsters his pistol.
"Well, that's something." Simo goes to scoop up the contents of his box, looking specifically for the brass flute.

 

((Ron. Jareix?))

Demina frowns. "Well I wouldn't. I'm going to go find him, I'd like company." She follows the way Ron originally left.

 

"If it kills you, it's your own fault." Malcolm shouts after her. He turns to Bryon, "So, do you have anything to eat?"

 

Bryon fumbles after Demina, following like a child

 

Cain looks for anyone who might seem smart enough to understand the artworks.

 

"What is it?"

 

((Right, damn...))
It gestures for you to stay down, and seems to try and hide...
You can hear the clicking of claws and the wet *Schlip-schlip* of something slapping against the gound... Like webbed feet...

Sklod's already rushing into the house where the creature fled...
"I'm not sure... We'll just have to find out I suppose..."

You find everything except the flute...

 

He keeps right behind him, keeping a bit to his side with the shotgun ready.

 

"What, it's not here?" Simo sifts through the junk, scattering them again. "Crap! That thing ran off with my flute! We gotta hunt it down, big guy!"
Sasha tromps back down the stairs, heading across the street after the creature. Simo follows, leaving the box behind.

 

Ron gives the creature a confused look until he hears the 'footsteps.' He takes three slow steps back from the doorframe, settling into a crouching position and raising his shotgun.
--------------------
"Thank you." Demina gives a closed smile to Bryon. "He should be close." She looks down and tries to spot any sign of Ron having passed by, keeping her ears up and listening.

 

Bryon follows right beside you. He act as if he was a young, scared child as he follows.

 

She reaches up and rests one hand on your shoulder. "We're both going to need to be brave."

 

He silently nods. Something about his demeanor changes...He seems....calmer.

 

He bolts up the stairs, boots squishing through what was on the floor...
Your attention is drawn to the glowing green thing again...

The other two are already on its tail... You don't think they can catch up, but if you could find somewhere to get a clean shot from these roofs you could probably get it...

You accidentally knock over something, sending it to he floor with a resounding 'CLANG'
The footsteps stop... They've heard you...
The creature seems to go pale faced...
---------------
You hear more gunfire, this time coming off towards sort of the general direction where the others headed...

 

Simo runs ahead to find a quick way to climb to the rooftops, this time Sasha being the one to follow.

 

He quickly fires a buckshot round if it's a clear shot.

 

"Shit!" Ron shouts as he launches himself up and out through the doorframe, hoping to rush who/whatever's outside.
---------------
"It sounds like the others found something." She continues forward a bit faster, worried about the lack of nearby sounds.

 

There are actually stairs to a flat platform roof. From there it should be easy to get up high, assuming you don't slip.

You don't have a clear shot.

Whatever it was seemed to have been hiding around the corner of the building, as you rush out finding there nobody in sight, before something large impales you...
It's a harpoon, and you are bleeding severely... you can't move due to the weight, but you've managed to avoid going into shock. Adrenaline is keeping the pain off. You can see now that your attacker seems to have been a large fish faced frog/lizard thing holding the length of cord, and another mi-go armed with some sort of alien lance.

Said large fish is approaching you. You doubt it could withstand a headshot, but would that be worth the risk?

 

He tries to flank the thing, hastily moving to a good position and firing a buckshot round first chance he gets.
