It was a warm day in Royalwoods. The sun was shining, birds were chirping, and the neighborhood was a good place… for now.
Brbrbbrbrbr Katunck
"Alright, we're here." A woman said
A white-haired boy about the age of 13 exited the car and sighed "Alright, let's get this done."
They stepped forth and gazed at the premises and there stood a building made of bricks and a black roof with a sign that said 'Royalwoods Middle School'. They approached as 2 dogs tagged in the back. They stopped at the doors to the education building and the blonde-haired mom turned to her son. They opened the door and stepped inside. It was empty and eerily quiet.
"Alright, the main office should be right here." The mom said as they turned to a door with the sign waiting room
An echo came from the silence of the hallway. The dogs began to bark and tug on the white-haired boy's hand as if they were trying to run off. The longer this happened the more intense the tugging became more violent. One was begging to run to the exit and whimpered at something that the white-haired boy and his mom didn't notice while the other one growled and snarled in the opposite direction.
The white-haired boy turned to his mom and spoke "Alright, can you keep an eye on the dogs? I have to go to the restroom."
"Sure thing honey." the woman responded as she grabbed the leashes and headed through the door of the main office
The boy walked the empty hallways and only hearing conversations from classrooms he walked by. He spotted a sign that marked the location of the boy's restroom but when he approached the door, he jumped at a voice calling out.
"HOLD IT!" A girl's voice rang from the hall
He turned to see a girl in a yellow t-shirt and blue skirt with a ponytail and bow on her hair. She walked to him and he noticed that she was wearing a vest that said 'hall monitor' on the right chest part. She paused once she got close to what she assumed was another student but when she stopped, so did her heart. A blush appeared on her face as she stared at the boy. White hair, blue jeans, white shirt with a marine corps logo, black jacket.
"Uh… are you ok?" The boy asked her
She snapped out of her trance as she replied "Huh, oh yeah I was just asking do you have an HAAA-"
She was tripped as a german shepherd knocked her off her feet. Lincoln rushed to the girl and grasped her arm.
"Are you alright!?" He said getting her on her feet
"Y-yeah I'm fine… was that your dog?" She asked him in a monotone voice
He realized what words came from her mouth and he looked behind him to see his mother run with the other dog in her arms.
"H-honey, can you *Huff* go get corporal? Please. *Huff*" The woman asked her son "We were in the middle of a meeting with the principle to *huff* get you enrolled until he ran out the door * huff* barking. OUCH!"
The woman dropped the terrier in her arms as it bit her to let him go. The dog ran as fast as he can to leave the school. He sensed something coming, something large and… mechanical.
"You get Corporal. I'll get Charles." The blond woman said
"Alright, mom." The boy said
The mom ran off as the boy ran to get the german shepherd. He heard a pair of feet following behind him and saw the girl keeping pace with him.
"No dogs in the halls. I'm just helping you get him back." The girl blushed
The boy shrugged and made a right to where the dog went. He stopped as the dog was seen barking at the basement door.
grrrrrrrrr
"Corporal! Get over here, boy." The white-haired boy said to the dog
The dog didn't respond as it kept barking at the door. He walked over to the dog and grabbed the leash.
"Come on boy mom is wai-KATHUNK," The boy said until a noise from the room cut him off
"What was that!?" The girl shook as she leached onto his arm
The boy began to become unnerved but swallowed his fear and said: "I-It's probably nothing."
KATHUNK
The noise came from the room again. They turned their heads and saw the door begin to shake. Suddenly a red glow emanates from the other side of the door. They watched in fear as the light grows brighter then silence after 2 seconds. They heard roaring like the engine from the other side, they saw the door begin to bang ferociously. The dog began to go rabid as its yanking of the collar and bitting at the air became more vicious.
"W-whats happening!" The girl panicked
The boy was about to respond until a yell was heard.
"MS. JORDAN! What on earth is going on here!" A woman said
"AHH, Mrs. Dimartino, uhhhh, t-there's a monster in the b-basement." She panicked
The teacher laughed as she walked up to her and said "Look, it's probably just the heater acting up again, look, I'll open the door and there won't be anything"
She marched up to the door and placed her had on the doorknob. They trusted their teacher but the dog made them think otherwise. The doorknob turned as she put her hand on it, she felt sudden vibrations through the knob. Sweat beads began to form on the teacher's forehead and it began to open. The door creaked open and as it opened. The sound went away. She stepped inside while the children and the dog watched from the hallway.
She smirked and said "See, nothing here. There's no monst- AHHHHHHHHHH"
The children watched in horror as she was grabbed by the foot and dragged into the darkness. The children were scared shitless, the screams of the Hispanic teacher in the dark fueled their horror-stricken pose. They couldn't murmur words as they heard the ripping and crunching of bones. An object was thrown out from the darkroom. The children gagged as they realized what it was. The leg of the teacher was seeping blood on the floor as they heard footsteps from the end of the hallway. They turned to see the mom of the white-haired boy in shock as she saw the leg of the mutilated teacher.
The children's eyes went back to the inside of the room. The woman slowly approached not knowing what to say. She looked at the tears and fear on their faces. Suddenly the roaring of the engine came back as she turned her head back to the darkroom. Anxiety suddenly flushed over her as she saw 7 lights look at her dead in the eye.
"HUMAN FEMALES IDENTIFIED, HUMAN MALE IDENTIFIED." a mechanical voice rang out
Suddenly the roaring got louder as the monster came into view as it approached. A machine that they never have seen before. It was 7 and ½ feet tall, half creature, and half mechanical monstrosity with a mechanical sled with rockets on it. The generator revved up as the monster roared as loud at could possibly can. Suddenly the left arm came into view, it was not even a hand, it was 2 blades glowing yellow with spikes rotating like a chainsaw. Suddenly the monster began to approach at began to glow blue.
The Doom Hunter slashed the doorway into a gaping hole and saw the 3 targets in its sight. The 3 beings screamed as they got up and scrambled away for dear life. The dog ran at it but the Doom hunter raised his arm and chopped the poor mut into 3 bloody splotches of gore. He turned to see the 3 humans make a right as the boy watched in horror the unworthy companion get mutilated. He roared at classroom doors began to open. When the teachers popped their heads out of the classroom they were greeted with a Monster-machine hybrid and their eyes grew to the size of dinner plates and slammed the door.
The Doom hunter revved up its rocket systems and fired a volley of them up and down the hall as they smashed and detonated on classroom walls. It looked into the holes of the school and saw teachers and students blown to bits. Blood painted the walls red as they were just piles of dead mush. He looked in one classroom and saw no one alive, but something caught its attention. A certain desk was sobbing. The Monster levitated to the desk and looked over it and the sobs began to muffle themselves. He struck the table with such force that it flew and smashed into the wall separated the inside from the back yard of the school. What it saw was a girl no older than 14 looking up at it with red eyes and screaming as loud as she can.
"HUMAN FEMALE IDENTIFIED." It said
It raised it's bladed hand as the girl closed her eyes and it brought it down on her as another red light filled the room. It heard the sudden stomping of feet advancing but it was sharpened on eliminating the target.
KRUANK
The blade suddenly stopped as the revving because louder…. But wasn't the Doom hunter. It's light's brightened as it realized what it was. A chainsaw meets the Doom hunter's blade and it was wielded by a man clad in green armor with a visor that was swamp green. There were seconds of silence as the Doom hunter was processing this information.
"...SLAYER IDENTIFIED…" It spoke
It raised it's blade again and tried to Slash the Slayer but he was swift enough to block it with his shotgun and fire shots straight into it. The Slayer was confident that it would do damage but it seemed like it didn't do a thing. The bullets evened seemed to deflect off of the blue shine around the Doom hunter. It heard a tap against the sled that it hovered on and it turned to see a knight sentinel trying to puncture its sled. The knight looked up and the Doom hunter returned the glare. It smashed its arm cannon in the side of the Knight Sentinal sending him flying into the parking lot.
In the parking lot
"LINCOLN WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!" the blonde woman screamed at the 13-year-old boy
"I DON'T KNOW!?" The boy yelled while running with tears still in his eyes.
"WHATEVER IT IS! IT'S COMING FOR US!" The 13-year-old girl screamed as they approached the car.
The woman dug her hand into her pocket and fished out a pair of car keys.
Beep Beep
"THE DOORS UNLOCKED! GO GO GO!" The woman screamed as she heard the screams of the dying still in the building.
Suddenly a mass collided with the car sending it flying into the middle of the street. Cars on the road swerved and hit the breaks to stop from hitting the oncoming wreck. It was quiet for a second as people got out of their cars to see what had happened. Abruptly another body slammed into the grocery store behind it. People ducked as bricks began to fly everywhere and turned their attention to the hole in the supermarket. A man stepped out of the store in heavy green armor as did a white boy in knights armor step out of the wreckage of the car. They walked to the parking lot where people turned their attention to the hole in the school as the fire alarms went blaring in the school. The Doom hunter levitated out and roared as the Slayer pulled out his plasma rifle and the knight readied his spear. Onlookers wanted to run but a force kept them there to see the conclusion.
The Slayer and his Lincoln looked at each other and nodded. They turned their attention back at the Doom hunter and began to sprint at it, for they are so close to their home and this is not where they will die.
