That doesn’t <span class="mu-i">matter</span>, you groan, everyone’s gonna be on the mountain soon–you’re certain of it!
The groundskeeper frowns. “Care to explain why?”
You respond by activating your <span class="mu-s">EARPIECE</span> again. Hank, you begin, sit tight, okay? You’re coming to get him!
“Oh thank <span class="mu-i">CHRIST!</span>” The Tech Dude half-sputters, half-whispers! “I-I’ll try to get the <span class="mu-s">RADIO</span> working–it’s beat up, but fixable!”
Atta’ boy, you nod. <span class="mu-i">That’s</span> why, you add as you turn your attention back towards your driver, anyone and everyone that heard that is gonna be headed for the mountain now…
“... so you’ve just made an <span class="mu-i">ambush</span>.” Chuck sighs as the truck rolls over a patch of bumpy road, “For <span class="mu-i">us</span>.”
No, you reply, for all of the assholes trying to ruin tonight! You’re tired of playing cat and mouse and waiting for these idiots hiding in the shadows! All of this is gonna end soon, you continue with determination in your voice, one way or another!
“Huh. Guess I shoulda pegged you for the crazy type when I caught you running through the woods…” Remarks your driver as he takes a turn a little <span class="mu-i">too</span> sharply! “Hope you’re ready for it, kid.”
You do too, but you don’t really have a choice anymore–anyone smart enough to be listening in to the call won’t want to broadcast that they’re on the way… you’ll just have to see who or what shows up!
Hank, you continue as you speak into your <span class="mu-s">EARPIECE</span>, walk me through what happened again. <span class="mu-i">Slowly</span> this time!
“O-okay!” He stammers, still afraid to poke his head out of his hidey-hole, “We got attacked on the way up–by that <span class="mu-i">BIG</span> guy!”
<span class="mu-i">One</span> of them, you think to yourself.
“So we ditched the cart when the mountain path got narrow–a lot of it was covered in rocks and stuff, so we had to climb! Felt like my heart was gonna pop out!”
Focus, man, you hiss, what happened next?
“We lost the big guy, but then those <span class="mu-s">DOG THINGS</span> came after us! Tina was able to fend ‘em off with this pipe she found, but there were way too many, so we ran to the antenna tower–the one just next to the <span class="mu-s">HELICOPTER PAD!</span>
And what was up with the equipment?
“That’s the weird part–I checked through the whole place and while a few machines were busted, the actual antenna terminal was fine! If I didn’t know any better I’d say someone just, like, changed a few settings or put some kinda <span class="mu-s">JAMMER</span> on it!”
You blink. Wait, wha?
