-Flashback-
The snake was outside biding its time slithering around the house looking for its intended prey.
It began to experiment with the house, slamming its body against the walls to coax Diaz out.
Meanwhile, inside the house Diaz was trying to figure out what the best tactic was for escape, since he had given the snake far too much time to surround the house.
eventually he came to the conclusion that if he was going to survive this he had to fight, more specifically run and gun.
The idea soon popped into his mind about how to best accomplish that, and so he made a run for his father's munitions cache while the house shook and groaned around him.
He had hope now, that was important because otherwise he'd simply freeze up and die from his current situation.
He found the safe for his father's stockpile and began trying all the different button combos to open it, by sheer luck he hit the right numbers, the safe beeped and opened up.
He was overjoyed at the fact that his father had listened to him and purchased more than a generous number of guns and ammo, knowing that in his current situation his father would be more than understanding about what he is doing.
Diaz began to quickly pick a load-out from what was available, he settled on a 9mm Beretta 92FS pistol, a .45 m1911, Mossberg pump-action long-tube 12-gauge combat shotgun, and A tactical 5.56mm AR-15 with laser sight, carrying handle, vertical fore-grip and flashlight.
The snake finally began to lose patience and bashed against the house with steadily increasing amounts of force. The house was losing its integrity fast, it could only withstand a few more minutes of smashing before the walls would give in.
Back at the stockpile the boy was furiously working on getting the weapons primed and ready for combat, the pressure of life and death was a good motivator despite the constant chaos around him.
After the last magazine was loaded and strapped on, he equipped and holstered his weapons except for the AR-15 which he held proudly in his hands.
It was at that moment he remembered to run back to his room grabbed his IPod, set a badass fight playlist, hooked it into the insulated waterproof area of his armor's tactical rigging stuck a headphone in his ear and charged at the front door of the house.
the snake wasn't expecting what happened next as the front door of the house was kicked down and a barrage of lead was fired at its side the rounds were penetrating the snake's scales, barely.

He charged for the nearest cover being a car on the street.
The snake attempted the snatch its prey, the boy dodge-rolled out of the way with the agility of a gears of war gear.
Diaz reached his cover as the snake received a mouthful of dirt and rock.
The snake picked itself up and struck at its target as hell was rained down on it from behind the car.
A lead spray hit it in the face and it screeched loudly, reeling from the loss of its vision.
The beast began to thrash around wildly in fury, setting off car alarms all over the neighborhood.
Diaz saw this as his chance to continue his assault on the raging beast, he let out another set of bursts from his rifle making good on his hits striking what seemed to be thinnest parts of the beast's armor shooting off layer after layer of scales bit by bit.
The snake recovered and used its sense of smell to track its prey snapping at the ground where the shooter stood.
He dodged each strike like a pro, using the snakes newfound lack of sight against it.
The barrel of his rifle began to overheat, so he switched to his shotgun pumping shell after shell into the snakes hide.
That was when his luck ran out, the snake caught him off guard as he attempted to reload his weapon, striking him with the force of a moving sedan.
Now on the ground momentarily stunned he watched, as the snake reared back to finally capture its meal.
Then as if by a miracle he saw his assault rifle on the ground next to him and unloaded an entire magazine into the mouth of the monster.
As the magazine clicked empty, the snake gave one last screech of pain as it died and its corpse began to fall on top of the winner.
"Aww, Son of a bitch." Said the boy in a low tone.
It all goes black, as he sees death approaching, his eyes shut he waited for the end.
But surprisingly enough it never came, he opened his eyes to see the snake was gone.
"What the hell, where did it go? Well at least I'm still breathing that's always a plus."
As if by chance the portal reopened and began to suck in the boy, like it was specifically targeting him.
"No, no no no no, nooooooo!" He screamed as the portal sucked him and his weapons in like lint in a vacuum cleaner.
Needless to say, the ride wouldn't be pleasant as he free fell through a rift in time and space.
"Ah, hell where am I going now!" He dodged multiple obstacles and debris as he fell though the rift screaming for a short while, until he grew hoarse.
Eventually he found it kind of fun in a twisted sort of way.
"Yahooooooo!"
Then large bolts of energy struck and he cried out in agony, He could feel something changing inside him like something was rewriting his very soul and genetic code.
His arms then began to morph into various blades and gun barrels at one point he thought he saw his right arm turn into half of an M16.
Five pain-filled minutes later, the portal's other opening appeared in front of him, he was relieved that it would finally be over, but horrified by the now present thoughts of the soon to be to not so pleasant reunion with the ground.
