https://youtu.be/dX5XIATqXsY - BENNETT
A heavy shotgun with the same dull yellow colors as Apex Predator rests in his hands. Shit. Your mind automatically scans his stats but you find...something unusual.
BENNETT HUXLEY [SUPERBOSS]
VIOLENCE: 88
COOL: 66
That's it. No boons. No banes. No implants, no other stats. Nothing else to work on.
A wry smile crosses your face. This man isn't from this City. Perhaps he's from the Endless Wastes, perhaps from another City.
All you know is there's no room for hesitation.
You return fire, blasting two slugs right towards him. He doesn't even bother to dodge your attack. The two regular slugs dent his armor. He snaps his arms to aim right at your head but you manage to duck away this time. Two angry swarms of lead zip right past the gap between your antlers. Like the lightest of tucks.
Bennett clicks his tongue in annoyance. He prepares to reload his gun again but you charge right at him while his guard is lowered. You grab onto his shotgun and there's a quick scuffle but he immediately overpowers you. You're sent stumbling back and before you have time to catch your breath...
Bennett runs back into the mist. You're confused and you're a bit slow to realize what he's doing.
He charges right at you before launching him into a dropkick aimed RIGHT at you. His feet slam into your stomach and your bones barely give any resistance.
Your bones crackle like the pop-snap sound of rice cereal. You're launched back a dozen feet away and, unable to catch your footing, you slam HARD into the ground.
Your stomach twists and turns. A mix of vomit and bright pink blood stains your chest. It sticks horribly to your fur. Your FEDKILLER is thrown to the other side of the hallway, disarming you.
>You take 6 (reduced from 8!) FLESH DAMAGE! 4/14 FLESH LEFT!>BRUISED RIBS upgrades to OBLITERATED RIBS! (-3 VIOLENCE, -3 TALENT, FLESH DCs are increased by 10, you will take 4 FLESH damage soon if this doesn't heal!)[CAPTAIN'S COMMAND] GET. UP. He's going to KILL you.
Bennett already closed the distance between you and him. His shotgun is aimed right at your face, ready to obliterate your skull.
He thinks you're easy pray at this point. A rictus grin crosses your face. Maybe he would be right if you were a human.
[UNSTABLE RESOLVE] WITH SOLEMN GRACE, WE ACCEPT THIS PUNISHMENT.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] It reminds us that we're alive.
The implants in your body work on overtime. In a flash, you see your body disappearing right before you.
