>>5383054Joining Syb at the back of the van, your bedraggled-looking comrades shoot you grateful, if not somewhat weary smiles! Even Denise pauses from unloading the turret you pilfered from the <span class="mu-g">DRIVE-IN</span> into the horde!
“Take it you guys visited <span class="mu-g">THE LODGE.</span>” Art remarks as he continues bombarding the skeletons through the van’s rapidly-depleting <span class="mu-b">FORCE FIELD!</span> “How’d that go?”
Dead, you reply, as if that explained everything, <span class="mu-i">lots</span>.
“Shit…”
It’s not <span class="mu-i">all</span> bad though, you continue! Turns out Sonny was one of the jackasses behind all this, and her accomplice is still out there too!
“Why is that good news?” Asks Sybil with genuine confusion.
Because your boss is now deader than disco, you reply as you show off your claws to the rest of the van! And her little boytoy’s been on your shitlist for ages…
“Wait, ‘<span class="mu-i">boytoy</span>’?” Asks Mitzi with half the amount of confusion Sybil had, which is quite a lot for her! “So… hold on-”
The tomboy’s thought process is cut short when a salvo of rockets impact against the force field sending you and everyone else tumbling!
Doesn’t matter, you interrupt with renewed determination in your voice! Christy and Blumenkrantz are holding down the fort, and if Art and Mitzi are all good then you’ve got no reason to stick around here any longer! You punctuate your sentence by narrowing your eyes at the two previously-injured crew members. They <span class="mu-i">ARE</span> all good… right?
“Haven’t been possessed yet.” Art shrugs as he reloads his <span class="mu-g">GRENADE LAUNCHER.</span>”
“And I’ve only got a <span class="mu-i">slight</span> craving for <span class="mu-r">STAN FLESH,</span> so that’s pretty normal.” Adds Mitz with a smirk that says ‘<span class="mu-i">just kiddiiiing</span>’. <span class="mu-i">This</span> bitch!
“Well,” Sybil interjects as she props herself against the back of the van, “If that Talbot business has been sorted out, then we should begin our escape, yes? Is <span class="mu-i">he</span> all good, Stanley?”
Yea, you nod as you hear a distant panicked scream from the back of the dragon circling the battlefield, he’s good as new!
