DOOM II strives to maintain the fast pace of the Doom franchise, and boasts twenty chapters of intense action, new guns, new demons, and a new story. *DOOM II contains intense violence, blood, and gore

11. Chapter VIII - The Pit

I walked out of the market, enraged. Down the road was a large, gaping crater the size of five square city blocks. It looked like the military had nuked the city in a final, feeble attempt to halt the invasion. Obviously, it didn't work.

The pit was now infested with demons, all hungry for warm human flesh. A Hell Knight charged at me. Before it could even touch me, I grabbed it by the throat and crushed its windpipe. By itself, a tank is a formidable force, but in live combat, with the proper equipment, it's an immovable, indestructible force. Hell had taken one step too far, and they would pay dearly for it. The Unmaker was merely a tool of destruction at my very deadly fingertips.

I took a diving leap into the pit and landed securely. I was surrounded by demons. The Hell-dwellers growled and snarled and hissed and screeched at me. This was going to be fun.

First came the Imps. They came in groups of four to six. For each troupe of Imps I killed, my pistol was left with a smoking barrel. Each Imp was left with a single, smoking, 9mm hole in the center of its head.

Then came the Hell Knights. Groups of three or four charged towards me. I followed suit and charged them, fists raised. I tore every single one apart with my bare hands. The only remnants of the Knights I left behind were the entrails of the fallen Hell beasts.

The final demons to challenge me were a handful of Revenants, Mancubi, and a couple Barons. I dealt with the Mancubi with relative ease by disemboweling each of them with my chainsaw. I killed the Revenants by sabotaging their MLRB packs. Last, but certainly not least, I slaughtered the Barons by unleashing the Unmaker upon them. The Unmaker shot a beam of Hell energy into whatever I had it pointed at, dissolving the target's flesh and leaving them a smoldering mess of blood and bones.

I stood above the piles of demonic corpses, covered in blood. I noticed a cavern opening that had been uncovered when the area was cratered. Never having been one drawn to circumspection, I charged in, ready to continue my bloodshed.
