Soon we were at the shelter. There was a sleeping catbeast in the corner. An old stitchpunk named 1 was teaching us how to fight machines. He purposely threw a rock at the machine to get its attention. It woke up and groweled at him and he started to fight it.

"Dodge bullets." 1 said, moving away from the projectiles. "Stay away from bombs." The monster threw a prosthetic leg at 1. "I really don't have much in the way of advice for that." He said. He continued to fight the robot until it was killed. Soon after, 1 handed us each a bottle of liquid.

"This is a new chemical we developed called h206. It will make your bodies bulletproof and provide protection from gases and chemicals. But be careful- we are missing a container of h209, a strong mating chemical that causes our animals to have a strong attraction to anything containing even one drop."

Too late for me. I already put the whole jar on, turning it around, it said h20.…9. Oh creator. The catbeasts and winged beasts came over to me and started… well, you know. Every animal the shelter had was all over me in just a few seconds.

"Aren't you going to help him?" 7 asked 5.

" Right after I get this on the internet." he answered, holding his camera phone up to me. When all the animals were through, a miniature winged beast, which was apparently genetically enhanced to be stronger as I found out later, bit me on the neck. I suddenly felt- something. I don't know.
