Chapter 11: It's Now or Never
Troy was nearing the top when he looked down to see that the group was looking slower than when they first started and that made him start to worry a little, Man if I don't get to the top of this they aren't going to stand a chance against that thing, c'mon you're almost there just push... a little further... there you did it great now get in that crane and kill that son of a bitch. Troy smirked to himself as he climbed in the crane, which was used to unload boxes from the lift, and found that the key's were still in the ignition.
oOo
The group had ran out of ammo and they did it in less than two minutes because the speaker was nice enough to inform them how long they had until they died they were now on what sounded like thirty seconds, the beast was slow but it still had the speed of a cheetah and it ran straight for Jacob noticing that he was moving the most sluggish out of the group.
Jacob looked up to see that the monster was only a foot away when something grabbed it and rose it above the lift and outside, just when the monster was lifted from the lift, it shook and gained speed enough speed the group thought that would get them out of this shaft before the facility exploded,
Once the lift reached the top they could barely here the speaker's anymore but it sounded like they had fifteen seconds to get off the lift and to a safe distance, once they got off the lift it started to go back down into the shaft and blast door's started to form around the shaft.
Must be a security measure to keep the infection from spreading, hmmm that gives me an idea Troy thought silently to himself as he sat in the crane chair, "Everyone stand away from the shaft I'm going to try and drop in Mr. X, and he is struggling quite a bit so I don't want him to pull you in." Everyone stepped back from the hole as Troy began to lower the monster into the hole.
The monster was almost in the hole when his struggling became to much for the loading crate to handle and it broke free from the crane but only to fall into the hole that was now almost closed but the only thing to make it through the hole was the monsters leg.
As the hole finished closing the monster let out a painful roar then it rose to it's one leg as the earth beneath it rumbled due to the facility blowing up under them, the monster had surprisingly great balance for having one leg.
The four men stood around the one legged creaturetrying to figure out a plan for destroying this thing now that they had no ammo and no way to get away from this thing, great, is all they could think defenseless against a behemoth of a monster.
Troy looked around to see if he could find something or someway to kill this thing, when he saw something on the ground near a group of trees it looked like a bunch of supply boxes, so he ran toward them in hopes of finding something he could use to destroy this creature once and for all.
The other's saw what Troy was running for and decided that even with the monster only having one leg he was still quick so they were now the distractions just with nothing but there hands and feet to distract it with.
They quickly looked around and grabbed anything they could get there hands on rocks tree branches anything then they started to beat and pummel the monster in order to get it's attention the monster knocked them all away but that was more than enough time for Troy to reach the boxes.
oOo
Troy rummaged through the boxes and he found that they were Umbrella Special Forces gear they were probably supposed to rendezvous here if the infection reached this far out of the city, luckily for them they hadn't gotten this far nor have the USF been here yet so he decided that finders keepers.
oOo
The monster was hopping toward Ean being the only one between him and Troy, on his final hop before he could reach Ean a series of shot's rang out and the monster fell from the sky hitting the ground with massive force, "Go to the boxes get yourselves something to shoot at this thing quickly." Troy yelled from the tree line unloading what looked like a very big automatic machine gun.
The other's ran to the boxes and pulled out the first weapon they could get there hands on, loaded them, and started to shoot everything they had into the monster who was still lying on the ground.
"Keep it pinned, I need to grab something." Troy said running back to the boxes "Step aside let him up" he said running between them hoisting a rocket launcher over his shoulder aiming for the monster's chest,
The monster rose to a sitting position then a loud whooshing noise rang out in the forest and a rocket embedded it self in the monster and stopped, "Great a dud we have such great luck today" Troy said steading his weapon aiming for the rocket, BANG the gun let out then everyone dove into the forest as they heard a loud boom and then the sound of torn flesh and pieces of muscle, fat and blood spraying across the ground.
