!ACHTUNG!

!ACHTUNG!

!ACHTUNG!

"Designed to always know..."

!ACHTUNG!

Mu grunts as he shifts, pushing metal beams off him, this room is darker, the lights having broken when he fell through the ceiling... Standing, he glances around.

!ACHTUNG!

Mu turns quickly, just time to step backwards away from a Eule, though his foot catches on a bit of debris and he tumbles, slamming into another Eule.

He lands atop her, feeling her shell crumble beneath his weight, recovering, he kicks his leg forward, taking out the first Eule's leg, she falls to the side, giving Mu just enough time to clamber up and whip his shotgun into hand.

If he were a Gestalt, the hairs on his neck would stand... Near the door, out of the darkness, more corrupted Replikas stumble towards him.

Two Starlings, four more Eules... "Okay... Stand in line, and wait for your adjustments!" One Starling lunges forward, shield held away from her chest as she brings her stun prod up.

Mu levels the shotgun to her chest and fires, blowing her onto her back as a Eule takes a stab at him, jamming her knife into his leg missing its intended target.

He slams the shotgun across her face, causing her to stumble into two other Eules, he pumps the shotgun and turns, blasting the Eule he had kicked.

He pumps the shotgun again, and shoulders the weapon, squeezing the trigger aiming at the last Starling...

...click...

"Empty!?" Mu's eyes widen only for a second as he folds the shotguns stock, he flips the weapon in his hand and holds it by the barrel as he slams the stock into the Starlings shield.

She stumbles back as Mu shifts, slamming the shotgun into a different Eules skull, her malformed head splits as she falls dead...

He turns and slams the weapon into another Eules chin, she screeches as she falls backwards, she flails about for a second until Mu steps over her and slams his leg onto her skull, her internals spill out as he pulls his foot free.

Moving on to the next... A knife is jammed into Mu's shoulder, between his armor, a Eule having jumped on his back, Mu throws himself backwards slamming the Eule into a bunk bed, he can both feel and hear her spin shattering and the bunk bending.

Instantly Mu throws himself forward, grabbing the final Eules by the throats, he lifts one and throws her into the floor, both hands coming forward to rip the Eules' head from her shoulders, replika coolant starting to coat his arms and face, a black metal mouth piece having formed over his nose.

Finally Mu reaches for the dead Starlings shield, hooking it to his left arm as he pulls the Eules' knife from his thigh, he slams the shield into the last Eule, then stabs her through the chin...

As she falls dead, Mu huffs, breathing heavy, he turns to the last corrupted Replika, the Starling...

She slowly stands, then stumbles forward, screeching as she lifts her stun prod, "Alright, you next." Mu shifts his grip on the knife and rushes forward, lifting the riot shield.
