Gauntlet 2

Mr Mothman.... or is it Mr Bio Mo... no Mothman! Let's stick with that!

Anyways..... Yes, he slammed into bio beast 3, the creature went flying into a nearby tree, Haha! He then turned his attention tonight on Bio beast 5, he slashed, bashed and crushed the creature reducing it to a bloody mess, but the creature regenerated back anyways!

Bio beast 3 lumbered forward, it tried to assimilate Parts of Bio beast 5 into it with it's Tendrils but Mr Mothman wasn't having any of that! He fly over it and slashed at the tendrils, severing them and focused it's attacks at Bio beast 3, it tried to reduce it to the same state as 5.

All in all.... it was doing a good job, I was impressed, so were the others, Sir George said a prayer I think in a strange tongue and made symbols with his hand, it wasn't magic though.... that much I could tell.

"Way to go Kid! I knew you had it in yah! Hahaha!" Barney laughed.

".....No you didn't! You and Pedro taught it was Nonsense!" I replied.

"No, no, no! You misunderstood me!"

"You shook your head in disbelief!"

"In disbelief of how awesome your plan was! Obviously!"

"Barnabas stop it.... you sound shameless now," Sir George spoke, he looked at Barney like he was some pitiful bug.

"Rookie, you think you can make more of them? That Moth thing?" Vince asked , he was breathing heavy, I guess the other Bio beasts were more resilient cuz his efforts were in vain! They pushed, slammed and Pressed against the Shield energetically.

"Nah.... sorry Boss, just the one.." I said.

"Boss...." He said whilst nodding his head rhythmically, "Anyways, you think you can keep that one alive at least?" He asked.

"It'll take more than me to decide that!" Seriously though, what was I supposed to do? Tell it to try really hard? I doubt we'll be able to make it outta her talk less of this creature....

"Why do you want it alive anyway?"

"It's not everyday you get to capture a live Bio beast, the lab coats would pay a fortune to study one!"

"A fortune?"

"Yes! We.... eh... you'll be very rich.... yes... you'll be a very rich man..."

"How rich are we talking here?"

"Both of you shut up!" Bradley roared, "Pedro, you still got that Liliana's Stone?" he asked.

".....no, we broke up.... she took it away unfortunately...." Pedro said with glum.

"....."

"She said I was too selfish," he continued.

We all nodded in understanding, didn't know much about the guy, but he's clearly-

BWASH!

One of them... Bio beast 4 destroyed the shield! Arthur collapsed and the creature charged right at him! Sir George positioned himself in between them and unseathed his sword!

"Let the mercy of the cleansed help strike this foul beast!" He chanted, the sword glowed white before he struck it against the creature's skin, the beast howled in pain before leaping back, the cut.... it kept growing and growing, seeping deeper into its flesh, it sizzled, crystallized and dissolved but didn't burn for some reason...

"It's like acid..."

"It way worse than that kid, the darker your thoughts, the deeper the cuts! It'll freeze your body so bad it actually burns it!"

"That makes zero sense!"

"Hey.... You and I are seeing the same thing, aren't we?"

"W-well.... yeah but-"

"All you need to know is.... If you have ill intentions against me.... I'll hurt you, you understand boy?" Sir George spoke.

I nodded my head.

We were at a stalemate.... we had slain one of theirs but.... Vince is winded, Arthur is passed out and now Even Mr Mothman is being overwhelmed, the 2 Bio beasts were successful in their assimilation of each other and now a creature twice the size of any Bio beast so far was bullying Mr Mothman!

"We need a miracle.... anyone got any ideas?" Sir George asked.

"Castor Junior..... you still got that rune stone?" Pedro asked.

"Huh? Oh you mean that thing Miranda gave me?"

"Yeah kid! Almost forgot about that! Give her call! We need back up!" Barney cried.

"By the time they make it here won't we be dead!?" I said, I was aghast, sure we need back up but I doubt we'd be able to hold out long enough for them to get here, it was roughly an hour from here to their place.

"Doesn't matter kid ju-!?"

RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

More!? More have come!? No it's regular beasts, oh they're swarming the bio beast on fire maybe-

"They jumping into it's mouth!? They're literally jumping into it's mouth!" I screamed

"Told ya Kid, Regular beasts love the smell of burning bio beasts! It's intoxicating! Wahahaha!"

"You're laughing!?"

"W-well-"

"Boy.... call this... Miranda Woman, we need help!Sammie and her sisters will aid us!"

"O-okay but the distance-"

"Just do it!" Everyone shouted.

I quickly fumbled for the rune stone and retrieved it from one of my Pockets, the strange rock was glowing green for some reason.

"Uh.... guys! i-is this bad?" I asked.

"No! It's dialing her, just give it a moment!"

"A-"

"Hello? Cas Junior? is that you?" A voice spoke from the stone... it was Miranda's!

"Y-Yeah am I glad to hear your voice!"

"R-really? Geez Youngsters these days...."

"Youngsters?" How old is she? How old can Bogwomen get? Miranda looks like she's in her twenties! wait not that it matters now!

"Emmm Miranda! I need a favour!"

"Favour?"

"Yeah! We're in a tight spot!"

"Sure! Where are you?"

"We're a miles off Parazo's last stand!"

"Hmmmm..... Mistress Sammie doesn't like us going near there..."

"What?"

"Yeah.... I wish we could he-"

"Miranda Please! We're dying here! There are too many monsters here! 6 bio beasts and a swarm of regulars! we need help!"

"Hmmm.... you're gonna owe me big though! Convincing The Mistress isn't gonna be easy!"

"Okay fine! I'll do anything you want!"

"Anything....?" She said with an unusual tone, Maybe it's my imagination but I think I heard her lick her lips.... I'm imagining it definitely! Yeah I must be.

"Well.... I have so many things I wanna try with you! What's your favourite colour? Is it red? it'sred isn't it!"

"Miranda!"

"Okay, okay... just hold on for 10 minutes Okay?"

"o-"

Ah.... I wasn't paying attention but now I see it....

It's big....

What? that's the best thing I can use to describe it....

The bio beast.... I don't know how many other creatures it devoured....

But it's big!

This thing is flipping huge!

It's almost the size of a football field! and that's not all.... it just keeps on growing and growing.... Mr Mothman man... he has abandoned the other two bio beasts and come over to me, I Pat it's head and continue looking listlessly at the Mega Bio beast in front of me....

I can't see the others.... but I'm pretty sure they're just as... 'Impressed' as I am....

"Hahaha!" Barney laughs ruefully, Sir George mutters some words.... perhaps a prayer? Everyone else is quiet as a mouse....

"Miranda.... honey? we don't have ten minutes..."
