The two of them left the school's rubble and onto the streets with Cheetah in the lead. He constantly looked left and right, he stopped at the slightest sound. His throwing spear was in his hand and his double-ended spear was strapped on his back.
Suddenly they both heard a slow, loud breath. Cheetah thrust his arm out to stop Ryan. The breath sounded again only closer now.
Cheetah looked at Ryan.
"Run," he said.
They ran down the street at full pelt. Behind them, some ten aliens burst out from behind piles of rubble and chase after them on four legs. The aliens screamed in frustration of their failed ambush but just kept running.
"Keep going! Don't look back!" Cheetah yelled.
Ryan kept running though he was starting to tire. Half of the aliens were off the street and running across the walls of the ruined buildings in the street.
Suddenly, some gunshots went off and the aliens on the street were picked off at random. The bodies slid for a few seconds from the momentum of running.
"Yes! Help has arrived!" Cheetah yelled.
Ryan was about to ask what help when they rounded a corner but didn't when they stopped suddenly. Four more people stood in front of them, two women and two men. They each held a homemade weapon of some sort and wore the alien skin armour. All the weapons had an alien's tail claw as a blade. One woman had a sword; the other had a small knife with a small claw for a blade. One of the men had sword and the other had a throwing spear and sword.
Cheetah stood with them.
"Ryan get down!" he yelled.
Ryan dived off the street. The aliens came pelting around the corner and the humans charged at them. The aliens were bowelled over. They expected to fight two people but now they were completely surprised by five.
Each human chose an alien to fight. So the battle was split into five separate battles.
One of the women fought hard with her sword slashing as fast as the alien could slash its claws. She swung her sword into the alien's chest and its yellow blood spilt onto the ground. The alien leapt onto her and pinned her to the ground and knocked the sword out of her hands. The alien opened its mouth ready to strike its second mouth into her head. Seconds before it struck, the women deliberately convulsed, knocking the alien off balance. Its second mouth shot out only off target and into the women's shoulder.
She screamed in pain. The alien flung her across the street. She landed right next to her sword. She picked it up just as the alien leapt into the air after her. She threw her sword at the alien and it hit it in mid-air. The alien was flung back into a wall were the sword impaled it.
One of the men was parrying alien strikes with his spear. He was fighting fast but not with much strength behind the blows. The alien had the upper hand in this fight. It clawed and struck with its tail at amazing speed. It was too fast for the man to keep up with. The alien grabbed his spear with its bare hands and whacked him over the head with its tail. The claw didn't hit him but it was enough to knock the man over. The alien snapped the spear in half and leaped at the man on the ground.
It landed on him and they wrestled with their bare hands, tumbling over each other. The alien slashed and clawed as the man kicked and punched. The alien's claws cut deep all over the man and blood simply poured out of the cuts it inflicted. The man rolled the alien off him and slowly got up. The alien writhed on the ground before leaping up onto its feet.
The man drew his sword and stood to face the alien. It leaped at him immediately. Just as it reached him, the man swung his sword into its side. The strike wasn't strong enough to cut deep but it threw the alien off course. It landed hard and remained still. The man walked towards it. The alien suddenly leaped on top of him and pinned him to the ground. It hissed and opened its mouth.
The second mouth punched through the man's forehead and splattered its contents on the road. The alien roared in triumph and charged over to join the alien fighting Cheetah.
The second woman was fighting with speed and not so much strength. The only weapon she had was an alien finger as a knife. But she fought with kicks and punches that she delivered faster than the alien could slash.
She grabbed the alien's slashing hand and twisted it backwards. She then spun on one foot and did a back kick into its head. The alien fell backwards. The women leapt into the air. She spun and planted her foot into the alien's neck and twisted the left arm of the alien off with the other foot.
The alien made an inhuman scream and pushed with all it's might at the women. The woman was flipped off but she gained control of her movement in mid air and landed perfectly.
The alien jumped up and wriggled its body in a way so that it flung a lot of its blood at the women. The women twisted and spun so none of the blood splattered on her. The blood landed on the ground and started to eat away at the asphalt. The alien charged at the women. When it reached her she jumped and forward flipped over the alien and landed behind it. She grabbed the alien from behind by the throat and slit its throat with her knife and let it slump to the ground.
The other man was holding an alien back with his sword. He held his sword horizontal in front of him, parallel with his shoulders. He held it at each end and the alien held it exactly the same. Neither of them were struggling, they both just stood there with only the sword in between them. They both just held it and stared into each others faces.
The alien stared into the man's eyes. It breathed slowly and heavily. Its mouth was shut and the transparent goo was dripping off it.
The man would have stared into the alien's eyes if he could see them. The alien's have no visible eyes just a smooth black head with a mouth.
The alien fired its second mouth at the man and the man moved his head to one side and avoided it. This gave him the opportunity to swing the sword between them at the alien.
Most of the alien's fingers were sliced off, and the sword lightly struck its chest. The alien leapt back and the man charged forward.
He hit the alien head on and slammed it into a wall. He then rammed his sword through its chest and stuck it to the wall. The alien fought to get at him but the sword was to strong and wouldn't budge.
The man just paced in front of his enemy for awhile. He watched it with disgust; he glared at its desperation to kill him. The beast had no individuality.
He then spun around and kicked it hard in the head. So hard that its head contracted.
Cheetah was flying around as he fought his two opponents. One alien leapt at him and he forward flipped over it and kicked the second alien across the street. He landed and spun around to catch the first alien again as it leapt back at him and he used his spear head staff to fling it into the second alien.
Both aliens got to their feet and looked back towards Cheetah. It seemed as though they were strategising on a way to kill him. Cheetah decided to wait for them to make their move. This ought to be interesting he thought.
The aliens suddenly peeled off and circled Cheetah. One of them began to move in closer. It then jumped at Cheetah.
Cheetah swung his staff and caught the alien and swung to parry it. But then the other alien leapt at Cheetah. He was too busy fighting the other alien to have noticed.
Oh he had noticed. He had defiantly noticed. Cheetah swung his spear out and wedged it through the second alien and slammed it into the ground. The alien writhed and squirmed.
Cheetah then twirled his staff with the alien still on it and flung it off. The millisecond that the alien was flung off the staff, Cheetah leapt into the air after it. He was practically right beside it and he twisted around so he was facing backwards from the direction he flew.
Cheetah swung one end of his staff into the stomach of the alien and sent it going at a slight upward angle as it travelled forwards and a second later he hit it with the other end of the staff and sent it rocketing in the opposite direction.
The alien hit a wall head first. Its head was totally destroyed and its body hit the ground with a thud. Cheetah landed and walked back to the alien pinned to the ground. He stared at it as it writhed on the ground. He then grabbed the spear in its chest and pulled it up so it sliced its throat.
