This is their turf you’re on, that’s for certain, but despite all of their city-slickin’ there’s one thing you’d bet they’ve never had to tangle with…
Vol, you mutter hastily under your breath, follow your lead!
You put your plan into motion long before your sister can assent. Good thing, too–those Skogs are about two seconds away from flying off the handle! But if they’re too angry to think clearly…
Spreading your jaws as far as they’ll go, you gather a menacing gurgle in your gullet before letting loose with a fierce, rumbling cry into the city sky that bounces around the cul-de-sac with a beastly timbre!
The surrounding buildings prove to be more useful than you’d thought–even burning, they still manage to amplify your voice, turning an admittedly-second-rate Fruum call into a roar that even manages to get Rezalith’s attention! While the Cartel reinforcements falter for a moment, their berserkers react like any beast would! Gnashing their teeth and stomping in response, the Skogs shower the alley with drool as their glowing eyes dart around in a vain attempt to locate the threat!
Amidst the confusion, one lucky rooftop sniper takes the opportunity to draw a bead on Obber… not that you notice outright, of course… It's only after you hear the dart slip from their Slinger far above that you realize what’s happening!
And that’s all the berserkers need to ply their trade!
Something about the noise sets them off, prompting the two tusked titans to tackle each other like a pair of Niiski fighting over a mate! Most of the reinforcements dart out of the way, but a few unlucky mobsters are caught in the clash and are subsequently bowled over!
One of the contraptions they came in on goes next–while the wrestling match rages past the parked vehicles, the non-berserk baddies take aim your way! By the time they prepare to fire, however, you’re already three steps ahead!
What do!?
>Run for it!
>Use the confusion to assault the Cartel goons!
>Steal a vehicle!
>Slip back the way you came and hide somewhere until they leave!
>Write-In!
Sorry for the wait, all--remember when I said I didn't think I was getting sick? I think I might be getting sick. Pardon my slowness in advance!
