Tyrant's body bulged with the unnatural muscles of the Nemesis, even taking on the strange pulsating muscle around the neck. It howled as its body mutated to its now default form, comprised of the numerous Umbrella creations it had ingested into itself. It didn't appear to notice the three human life forms in the vehicle near the hole it made in the street.
"Billy?" Jill asks, her nervousness evident.
"Yes, Jill?" Billy replies, his eyes not wavering from the thing that was supposed to be dead.
"Do you now the top speed of a Hummer?"
"No, I don't, so let's find out." Billy takes a firm grip of the steering wheel and guns the accelerator. The truck gives a slight kick as the tires burn on the street.
The mutated Tyrant watches the vehicle speed away. With a guttural growl, it undergoes a slight mutation to its form. Its legs take on the form of the Hunter's well-developed thigh muscles, along with the Licker's jagged toe claws. Its face takes on the more defining characteristics of a great white shark, most noticeably the pointed snout.
"Staaaaarrrrrsssss!" the mutated beast roars and gives chase.
Its claws slash through the pavement and its finely tuned senses kick into overdrive, finding the truck traveling past a pizzeria. It growled and roared and quickly began to close the distance between itself and its prey.
"Here it comes!" Jill shouts.
"I can see that!" Billy yells back. He frees the assault rifle between his shoulder and seat and tosses it to Leon. "It might slow it down!"
The ex-cop takes aim, and a clatter of automatic gunfire echoes through the buildings. Leon wasn't sure what was happening but he thought he saw the bullets glance off the creature's skin. The weapon quickly emptied and Billy tossed back his last clip for it. Leon took careful aim at one of the creature's eyes, and fired. Billy took a sharp turn and the shot blew out the window to a red Ford F-150 pickup truck.
"There goes my deposit," Jill muttered.
Leon didn't hear her and glared back at the driver.
"Sorry, man," Billy sheepishly replied.
Leon took aim once again and fired. The round tore through the monster's left eye, but it didn't so much as scream or slow down. He fired again and the right exploded in a burst of black blood and yellow puss. The monster growled slightly and kept up its pace.
Leon turned to the woman sitting next to him. "Jill, maybe you'll have more luck."
"Yeah." The master of unlocking took aim with her grenade launcher and fired. The shell blew off an arm, but it quickly grew back. "Damn. This thing gets harder to kill every time we blow it up."
Tyrant leaped through the air and was now in stabbing range of the two passengers in the back. Leon freed Billy's Striker from the front seat and jumped into the Hummer's small truck bed. He shoves the barrel of the weapon into the monster's mouth and pulls the trigger. The back of its head explodes and it stumbles back.
"Well, look at Mr. Terminator," Billy says.
"It'll be back," Leon says, doing his best Schwarzenegger impression. He quickly drops the accent and faces forward. "Would an antitank weapon be enough to kill it?"
"If it can blow apart the armor of an enemy tank, it can most certainly kill our unwanted nuisance."
Jill's gaze was fixed to the rampaging figure now coming at them at full speed. "Better hope it comes with instructions because we're about to have company."
Leon stashes the shotgun under his seat and opens one of the metal boxes. Inside was a fully assembled weapon about twice the size of the rocket launcher Leon had used against the monster now charging for them. He sighed heavily and pulled it out.
"I hope this thing works," Leon muttered. He found one of three shells in the case and loaded it in.
Jill jumped into the truck bed and took careful aim with the destructive weapon in her grasp. She fired off a shot and the shell blew apart the monster's lower leg. It toppled forward and slammed through a broken down minivan. Jill fired again and the van exploded into a million pieces. The Tyrant's body flew into a station wagon, instantly crushing it. The beast stood on a shaking leg, and its missing limb slowly grew back.
"Staaaarrrrrssss!" it roared and continued its chase.
Billy took every sharp turn he could think of, in hopes that the thing chasing them would turn too wide and slam into a building. His hopes were dashed when the relentless creature simply smashed through any obstacle in its path.
"You about ready there, Mr. Bond?" Billy half-shouts.
"Shut up," Leon replies. "Let's see you aim this thing with a maniac at the wheel." He looked through the weapon's scope and took aim at the monster's chest. "Please work."
The massive weapon fired and Leon fell on his back. The massive round flew at the Umbrella monstrosity and effortlessly batted it away. It detonated in a small clothing store, and it quickly burned into ashes.
"Wanna try that again?" Jill asks.
"You still got one more round, don'cha?" Leon replies, rubbing the shoulder he had mounted the weapon.
Jill sighs and takes aim with the grenade launcher. She fires and the monster's head blows apart. Billy whistles in appreciation and barely evades ramming the truck into a wall. The Tyrant staggers forward and its head half-way regenerates before continuing the chase.
"Anytime now, Mr. Kennedy," Billy says impatiently.
Leon loads another shell into the antitank weapon and takes careful aim. He wasn't going to risk another direct shot after the last attempt. Instead he aimed just in front of the monster's feet. The rocket kicked and Leon flew back again. The round found its mark at the Tyrant's feet and exploded in a shower of flames that engulfed it.
An unholy shriek echoed through the empty streets and the Tyrant's skin turned into an inky black mess. Leon springs back to his feet and loads the last round. He quickly aims and fires, the recoil launching him against the back of the passenger seat. The round whistled loudly and sunk into Tyrant's skin just as it began to grow back.
A tense few seconds ticked by and the round exploded in a glorious shower of orange flames that instantly fried the monster's remains, along with any chance of it pulling itself back together.
Leon throws the emptied high-powered weapon into the street and a pair of arms wrapped around his neck.
"You did it!" Jill exclaimed.
"That was amazing, man!" Billy shouted, honking on the horn for emphasis. "I mean, it just went boom!"
Jill got a little worried when Leon didn't respond. "You okay?"
"I'm fine," Leon says shakily. "I just hope I don't have to do that again."
Billy chuckled and finally managed to get the vehicle out of the doomed city. Once off the beaten path, he accelerated the truck up to a cliff overlooking the small town.
