Walking along the martian surface it was hotter than hell (although he'd eventually know what that would feel like) sweat irritating his eyes, for he was unable to wipe the sweat off his forehead through his brow, "Damn, kind of wish I had those fancy suits the mining division is equipped with, those things have a/c built into them from what I've heard." Ryan groaned as he continued on. Eventually, Ryan noticed that the temperature began climbing higher and higher, and his PDA started acting up on him, he realized why as he came to a crater. The sight before him sent him behind the cover of a rock, frightened to hell. A large opening in the ground revealed what looked like some sort of mess of flesh and gore, Imps and former humans surrounding it gave the idea that whatever that thing is must be important to the demons.

Ryan managed to sneak a peek from behind the safety of the rock, and what he saw was horrendous, like a mother giving birth, another Imp crawled out of the "Gore Nest" as these things would later be identified as "Oh my god… it's like some sort of Demon breeding ground." Ryan noted, he had to get rid of this thing, otherwise more demons are going to spawn from it, and the situation will get worse and worse until Mars is crawling with hell spawn. Ryan couldn't take these things head on, outside, his gun is useless, and with the lack of gravity he may as well be firing a bubble gun at these things.

Just then, at the corner of Ryan's eye, he saw it, a miner, dead, but right next to his mangled corpse is his mining laser, those babies can shoot a laser hot enough to break through steel, surely it can deal some damage to these things. However, that corpse and the mining laser are about 30 feet away from the Gore Nest. As much as he didn't want to, Ryan had to slide down the crater and make a run for the laser. "Okay… this could get me killed, but I have to destroy this thing, not only to potentially save Mars, but to keep these things from getting to Earth, to my family." Ryan reassured himself, he took a deep breath, and jumped down into the crater, the Imps and former's taking note at his presence they began shooting fireballs while the formers ran at him, rocks in hand ready to bash Ryan's brains out.

Thankfully, Ryan made it to the laser in time and shot a beam right into one of the charging former human's head. Melting his brain into ooze, he did the same for other two formers and took cover behind a boulder. The imps didn't let up on the fireballs they were throwing; it was beginning to wear down the rock Ryan was using as a shield. He had to act fast; otherwise Ryan is as good as dead. He saw that the boulders lying conveniently above the Imps were being held together by some other weaker looking rocks, he knew what to do. Ryan took a chance, jumped out of cover and blasted the mining laser at the rocks above, it was just enough to break the smaller rocks and let the large boulders tumble down, right onto the Imps. Crushing them and killing them instantly in a mess of blood and brain matter.

"Man, either I'm incredibly lucky, or god is actually watching over me on this one." Ryan thought, still shocked that he's still alive after all he's been through.

Ryan examined the Gore Nest and didn't see any blatant ways to destroy it (guess that was the point) he tried shooting it with the mining laser but it did jack shit. In fact it just prompted another Imp to crawl out of the Gore Nest, which Ryan was able to kill on the spot. Ryan did then notice some toxic barrels lying around the crater, if he was careful to not get any of that shit on him, he could maybe use the barrels as a dirty bomb. The laser should provide enough heat to make the toxic sludge in those barrels combust and explode.

Quickly (and carefully) Ryan dragged the barrels towards the entrance of the Gore Nest where the demons were crawling out of. Ryan then crawled out of the crater, took a good aim at the barrel closest to the Gore Next opening, and fired. The crater erupted in a fiery explosion, knocking Ryan back and sending bits of toxic sludge outward, nearly missing Ryan by inches. After the flames and sludge burned away, Ryan looked down to see if his plan worked, sadly, he saw that the Gore Next was hardly affected by the explosion, with some bits of flesh blown off, it was still intact. "Well that was a blast" Ryan sighed, disappointed his plan didn't work.

He crawled back down to see what else he can do, but he saw something else, it looked like the explosion blew away a piece of flesh to reveal something hidden inside the Gore Nest, it looked like a heart, beating at a steady rate "Could it be…" Ryan said as he took aim at the heart, and shot it with the laser, suddenly the heart exploded, causing the Gore nest to erupt in screams of agony as it is melted away, Ryan shouted in victory, but his victory was short lived, for two of those pink demons (like the one he fought in the mess hall) crawled from the puddle of ooze, as if the Gore Nest gave its final "fuck you"

"Of course, how could it be that easy" Ryan sighed as he shot the fiery hot laser into the first pink demon's eye, stunning the thing gave Ryan time to take care of the other demon, the laser being so hot, cut through the demon's natural armor like plating covering the front of its upper torso and face like butter. After Ryan dissected the beast to his heart's content, he went back to the previously stunned demon and finished him off. "Funny, ya think with these demons being from hell they would be able to resist fire." Ryan remarked as he continued on, leaving behind the scene he created.
