Brennan acted quickly, he jumped out from his spot behind the wall and let lose a hastened tassel, "Shal! Look out!"
Shal was in a zone, her mind and body completely focused on the three agents she was fighting, one a feral. But a voice, distant, but recognizable broke through. She didn't think, didn't question, she just dropped with cat like grace to the floor just as a purplish light flashed above her head. She heard an inhuman grunt then a scream of rage above her to her left.
"Shal get out of there! Move!" it was that voice again, that recognizable voice, one she knew she could trust. Again she didn't question just obeyed. She moved from the floor and away from the screaming creature. A look around her told her that other agents and Emma were doing the same.
The thing in front of her was human, but barely. Its features were distorted, it's body bulked like it had taken a bath in steroids. 'Hulk man…he took Jesse…he took my brother…' Shal thought, preparing herself to lunge at the thing that was seemingly on a mindless rampage, stomping and throwing its massive arms around.
After a few seconds the creature got control of itself and its first thought was seemingly revenge. In his sights was the equally pissed off Shalimar. She wasn't scared though, she was ready for him, and she wanted him to come. 'You took Jesse from me, you're going to pay….'
But someone got to him first. Someone who was broad, dark, and shooting sparks…
"Brennan!"
"I got him Shal! Go get Jess, he's down the hall!"
Shal growled, glancing from the now fighting Brennan, over to Emma who had been very busy while Shal was talking. Three other agents were running from their own shadows. "Emma, hallway!" The redhead nodded and sent another agent flying from a well place soccer punch.
The two girls headed for the hallway but were intercepted by the remaining seven agents. "Oh, come on! For God's shake do we really have to go through all this again? I mean, if we took twelve of you down, what chance do you think seven of you have?" Emma grumbled, sending them all images of twisted and bloody bodies. That was all it took to send the remaining seven running.
"Damn it Em, I was hoping to take at least two more down," Shal complained as she watched the agents scramble.
"Jess awaits Shal," Emma said grabbing the feral's hand and pulling to the hall, rolling her eyes.
Brennan could hear the girls bickering behind him, but he didn't have time to concentrate on that now. Right now all his concentration was being focused on Mr. Hulk in front of him. So far Brennan had pumped two times the volts it took to kill a man into him and nothing seemed to happen. In fact, he now had one very pissed off Hulk that had just found a battering ram.
One of the blasts Brennan had thrown had gone astray and knocked a pip off the ceiling. A good-sized pip which the Hulk seemed to know exactly what to do with.
"Ok body, so you're pissed and you're armed, but I can take you, I can…."
Brennan's self-peep talk was cut short when Mr. Hulk bashed the pip into his midsection and sent him flying. Brennan landed with an audible thud on his bad arm, and before he could recover was struck again, this time in his side. Brennan rolled, avoiding another strike and sent a ball of electricity at Mr. Hulk, who was struck in the face and started into another fit.
Brennan got to his feet, pain shooting through his side and arm. He sent another blast at Mr. Hulk and ran towards a pip cluster. He stopped right under the cluster and sent more sparks at Mr. Hulk, drawing him closer to the element.
"That's right big boy, come here, come closer…uncle Sparky only wants to play…come on…perfect!" Hulk swiped at Brennan, but it was a clumsy swipe and he was thrown off balance. With the speed of a gray hound, and the grace of someone with two left feet, Brennan dogged, sending a series of high charged bolts at the pips.
The cluster fell, hitting Mr. Hulk in the head and shutting cold air everywhere. Brennan breathed a sigh of relief. "Wait to go Sparky, only cost you two broken ribs…"
"Ugh…" grinned the massive figure under the pips as it stood to it's full, Hulk height.
"Damn it…."
