One thing’s for certain–you’re not going to be saving anyone without your gear… or at least some shoes, so keeping your momentum going, you dart past Talbot’s mess of tentacles and use your <span class="mu-g">PLUGGED-IN REMOTE-CONTROLLED DUCK</span> to swing across the trailer like a monkey!
Tugging your duck free of the charger at the apex of your swing, you sail over Talbot as he desperately lunges for you and out through the hole formed by the rocket! Though the bloody blizzard nips at your skin, you don’t stay outside long thanks to gravity. As you pass the spreading flames on your way down, you deftly tuck and roll and land in the remains of your bedroom!
It doesn’t take long for you to find your <span class="mu-g">COVERALLS AND BOOTS</span> lying on the floor, and as you gather up your belongings you spot your <span class="mu-g">CAP</span> wedged behind the bed right when Talbot crashes through the wall again! Just <span class="mu-i">gimme</span> a sec here!
Blasting the floor under Talbot into melting scrap with an <span class="mu-g">EYE LASER BLAST,</span> doesn’t hinder him much, but it <span class="mu-i">does</span> give you enough time to get dressed! For anyone else it’d be tricky to manage, but having been late for work so many times the suit-up process comes pretty naturally!
Zipping your coveralls all the way up to fend off the cold and setting your cap at a roguish angle, you barely have time to strike a pose before half a dozen tendrils punch through the wall behind you and swipe for your head! Ducking them all as you scamper away, you stop just short of the hole in the trailer as you spot countless glowing orbs approaching from the top of the hill!
“Okay…da’ others probably grabbed trailers too, right?!” Ly asks in a panicked voice as you take cover behind the remaining metal. “Dat’ means they can’t be too far!”
Here’s hoping… Dodging another cluster of tentacles that tear apart the wall behind you, you instinctively draw your trusty <span class="mu-g">CHINCHILL PUMP-ACTION…</span> but quickly lower it when you remember who’s attacking you.
There’s no telling how much time your friends have left, if they even have any at all, but should you spend any of it trying to reach Talbot?
What do?
>TRY TO REACH TALBOT! HE’S IN THERE!
