[BLOODLUST] "Blow it up blow it up blow it up." Two voices, one in your head and one outside it, beg you to do the funniest thing you could do right now.
And you know what? They're right. There really isn't any reason to do anything else.
"Anderson. Grenades."
"I think it might be wiser if we tried something - erm - quieter? There's a whole horde down there." Adam awkwardly laughs.
Anderson shakes his head, "I already know what you're going with this and I gotta say. It's the stupidest thing I've heard out of you and Lex."
You deflate. Lex quietly growls.
"But I like stupid. Sure. Here." He tosses his grenades over to you.
"Cool! Maru, Adam, You two are sneaky. Real sneaky." You dump an uncomfortably large amount of explosives into their hands. "Plant them around the place. We're caving this place in."
"Is that even enough to do it?" Otto points at the, admittedly, lackluster amount for 'caving a whole warehouse in'.
You nod your head at Benedict. "Ben boy, you know what to do."
"I'll fucking kill you if you call me that again." Benedict sneers with the first hint of true anger since, well, ever. It's weird hearing him speak as a regular human.
He presses his armblade against the various explosives. They begin to subtly vibrate with pure and concentrated POWER.
"Don't drop them." Lex snarks. "Bet even I couldn't survive that." Lex flexes his battle-scarred arms to prove a point. The others just ignore him (except for you. you give him a thumbs up.)
Adam and Maruyama rapidly scramble down the ladder leading to the horde. They disappear in a time-accelerated blur, leaving the rest of you behind.
"So. I think those are revenants. How many do you think are gonna survive?"
"Hm." Otto rubs his chin. "My guess? I'm no body expert but I'm going to guess most are gonna be 'chunky but alive'. Real sturdy lookin' freaks."
"I concur. Though the act isn't to kill, it's to disable them. Doubt my grenades will help much."
"Nah, nah, you think too small." You swear you saw Lex's eyes glow red for a moment. "They're gonna pop like juicy, JUICY balloons. Splattering their filth all over the place. It's going to be blast."
It's not long before Adam and Maruyama zip back to the platform you're on.
"I'd stand back if I was you." "To the entrance. Please."
Your group makes their way to the entrance but you can't help but to stay just close enough to watch whatever is about to happen next-
The first thing you see is white. Pure, blinding white light. Sound itself is seemingly erased from reality itself. The only thing you can feel is the intense wave of pressurized air slamming into you with the force of a tsunami.
A pair of thick burly arms wraps around you. Your hooven feet are barely able to hold their own weight.
When the light fades, you find that your allies aren't doing much better. Everyone is looking around in a dazed stupor aside from Lex. His gaze is focused on what happened to the horde.
