Lenny leaps into the air, sending out seven tentacles which burrow themselves deep into the ground. Burst fires a barrage of bone stalagmites at him, but chest before they make contact, they are swatted into the ground by his eighth tentacle.
“You honestly think something as mediocre as that would harm me.” He scoffed as he strikes Burst with a force strong enough to knock him off his feet, sending him spiraling into the air. “and back down you go.” He laughed as the same tentacle slammed into him, sending him crashing into the ground below. Burst slowly crawls out from the crater and loses consciousness.
“DREX!” Tiny dashed forward and dragged his brother to the opposite end of the room. “I’LL KILL YOU!” He screams as he forces all of his residual energy throughout his body, his muscles tense up and then compresses together.
“It’s been awhile since I’ve seen you mad, Tahir.” He laughs as Tiny gets into a running set. “Don’t tell me that you’re planning to charge directly at me.” He scratched his head as Tiny began to run up one of the tentacles. “Dammit, Tahir.” He sighed as he pulled all of them out from the ground and sent them at the furious Tiny.
“JUST DIE!” Tiny leaped off the tentacle and begins to bound from one to the other until he closes in on him. Sending all of his energy into his arm, he cocks his fist and uses his left arm to throw himself into a counterclockwise spin.
“I taught you that.” He smiled as Tiny’s right fist comes careening into his chest, but just before he makes contact, Lenny’s tentacle flicks the ground, causing him to spin in the opposite direction. Tiny’s fist just barely misses and is rewarded with a kick to the middle of his spine, sending him into the wall. A concentration of steam slowly comes off Tiny’s fist along with his will to fight. “Don’t worry, the pain you and Drex are feeling is nothing compared to drowning in the Atlantic Ocean.” He stared as Tiny loss consciousness and plunged to the ground.
“Why… would you do this to your own blood.” Shield nervously said as Lenny turned to face her.
“I forgot you three were even here.” He scoffed as Shield took a step back and the other two stepped forward. “Oh nice, two rednecks join the fray.” He smirks as they get into position.
“Jewel… Shield, we want you to get back to the main house and protect the rest of the family, we can only hold him off for so long.” He smiled while looking back at her. Her mother, unable to speak, turned around and nodded with tears in her eyes.
“Aww, you two would go so far as to put your lives on the line for your child… admirable, but I have a job to do.” They gaze at the unconscious bodies of Tiny and Burst. “Oh, well they’re family so I’ll let them slide for now.” His eyes became emotionless as he smirked at the two combatants, causing them to go on alert.
“Dad… Mom…” A cry erupts from her.
“GO” Axe yelled out as they charged forward, causing Shield to run.
“Please don’t die!” She cried out as she fled the facility. Axe and Saw both splits from their direct line of attack, causing Lenny to take to the air.
“Gotcha!” Axe yells out, throwing his axe hand out like a tomahawk, he cuts four of Lenny’s tentacles.
“FUCKING BITCH” He screams as he falls onto the ground. Saw immediately cleaves the remaining tentacles off, causing him to scream out in agony.
“Let’s end this now!” Axe and Saw jumped into the air and plunged their transformed bodies down into Lenny’s chest.
“AHHHH.” His eyes slowly become lifeless as they begin to close, the duo becomes relieved, smiling at each other.
“Aww, you guys look so happy.” He chuckles as they look down, terrified by his survival of their onslaught. Tentacles erect from the ground and wrapped around them tightly, hoisting them into the air. “Well, since we’re here, let me give you some knowledge.” He stands up from the ground and begins to stretch. “Us Zodiac can create a chemical while fighting, which cancels out your healing abilities.” The tentacles begin to constrict. “And another thing you should know, being the brother of Tahir and Drex also means” Bones instantly erect from each sucker and impale the duo. “that I’m a Demise as well.” Their blood flows down his tentacles. “And for good measure.” The tentacles unwind and another immediately swats them out the air.
Chaos had erupted outside, Tail had been thrown across the field and into Coil, who was attempting to evade the darting blows of the veiled women, sending them both through the kitchen wall.
A man wearing a winged mask soars into the air, pursued by Wing and a barrage of bone bullets. Wing and the masked man take their combat spread into a flat scissors maneuver. Cutting through the air like a swallow, the man descends rapidly into the forest below, compelling wing to follow.
Back on the ground, a hooded woman wearing a simple and a broken mask, revealing the left side of her face, stands surrounded by the rest of the team. Blade lunged forward, prepared to send her blade right through the woman’s torso but, within a blink of an eye, she found her arm broken and the blade itself shattered. The woman effortlessly dodged the bombardment of bone shards and grabbed a few from the air, flicking them back. She turns to see Smoke filling the area with a blue paralytic smoke, taking a step back, she brings her left arm across her body and swings it back around, sending out a wave of air. This action alone dispelled the gas and caused her to stare at the now timid Smoke.
“Sorry, but my superiors have commanded for the deaths and capture of you all.” She closes her eyes and begins to move, leaving an afterimage with every slight movement. “So, I’ll start with you.” Her body glows a pale gray as the Virgo sign appears on her left cheek. She instantly appears in front of Smoke, but just before she punctures a hole in his throat, she feels a small needle pierce into her synovial hinge, locking her arm in place.
“Looks like I’m a bit late.” Trapper stared down at them from the top of a Red Cedar tree.
