They were in the middle of a desert where the sand was so hot that it burned their feet and the sun was directly overhead. The air was scorching hot and with every breath they felt the heat burning their throats. When they started to sweat through the black military jumpsuit they were wearing, they realized that they had to act urgently. They had been in the dark for so long that they could not open their eyes because of the sun above them. With teary eyes they squinted and looked around. The enormous light of the sun didn't even allow them to do that, so they used their hands as binoculars to look around, but all they could see were a lot of sand dunes.
Bekir saw a pile of dust in the distance, they could not make out exactly what it was, but it was coming straight at them. They started to run, but there was nowhere to run and hide. When they ran over the grains of sand, the ground they stepped on sank slightly into it, and when they stumbled and got up, the hot sand burned their hands. Despite their difficulties, they kept running without stopping. Coming out of the dust was an animal that looked like an ostrich, and when it came up to them, they caught it with their mouths and threw it on their backs and stopped in their tracks. The team was dumbfounded.
Ercan asks, "Why did they put us on them?" No one had an answer for that.
What distinguished these ostriches from normal animals was that, strangely, they had large miniguns with large heads on the sides of their wings, and they had hand ports on their long necks for command. When Ercan put his hands in that port, the ostrich was in control. When he tried to move it, he accidentally opened fire.
The team threw themselves over the ostriches out of fear. They were almost hit by bullets. Yilmaz gets up from the ground and angrily walks towards him. "What do you think you're doing‼ We escaped all those people without dying! Now you are going to kill us for nothing‼". His friends intervene and try to calm things down. Ercan apologizes for his mistake, but Yilmaz snaps at him, "Fuck your apology!" Can approaches him in a friendly way and calmly warns him to be more careful. Ercan was silent with his neck bowed in regret.
This time the ground begins to tremble with a great shaking. The grains of sand seemed to rise from the ground, whatever it was, it must have been something very powerful. Whatever was moving the earth was coming from far underground. As soon as they saw it, they got on their ostriches and started to run away, having learned a little too late how to use them. In the meantime, the thing from underground had closed the distance between them. It was almost at the bottom of them when with a great noise it came up to the surface. It struck fear into their hearts with its strange sound.
This was a huge Worm Monster with a big mouth. They turn their guns back and start shooting at the monster from the digital screen in front of it. The giant Worm was snaking its way towards them. When the bullets enter through its open mouth, it is not impressed, but it doesn't like it and goes back underground. He was so deep that he could not make a sound. When the team paused in the middle of the desert, thinking they had scared off the Giant Worm Beast, they started a small celebration when they realized that the ground they were standing on was shaking. Their laughter was broken.
Can shouts "RUNN‼‼‼".
As soon as they left, the Giant Worm Beast rose into the air from where they were standing and fell to the ground with its heavy body. It fell so hard that the ostriches jumped a little. As the Giant Worm Beast crawled after them again, their guns fired relentlessly, but they had neither the power to scare it nor the strength to stop it. The Giant Worm Beast was so angry that it increased its speed and came towards them.
When Nur sees that the bag on the back of the ostrich contains different types of yellow bombs, he tells his friends. When they randomly throw a few of the bombs towards the Giant Worm Monster, the bombs that go towards its mouth explode and damage it. Now they had to use this to their advantage.
