"You mind distracting them for a bit?!"

"What?!"

"Distract them (Y/N)!"

"What the hell are you gonna do Leon?!"

"I have a plan!"

You mentally groaned, grabbed ahold of your shotgun and a handful of shells from your pockets. "You're killing me, you know that?!" You took off running to your left, blindly shooting at the first Gigante that came close. You grabbed his attention for sure, his ugly eyes fixing in your direction.
The second Gigante was bulkier looking, plated with metal plates strapped on his body, rusted chains hanging off his neck and wrists like old jewelry.

You ran across the room, running as fast as you could to avoid the large hands attempting to swipe you up from the ground or smash you through the floor, down straight into the bubbling  lava. Hot heat waves and steam made it incredibly difficult to breath, making your stamina very limited.

Both Gigantes emitted loud roars of annoyance, seeing how faster you were than them. Their movement was somewhat limited, due to the size of the room, but that didn't stop their attempts to get you.

"(Y/N)!!" Leon yelled, having you stop and look around with confusion. Where the hell is he-

"Get 'em to the center!"

"The center?!" You yelled, still unable to find the man anywhere. You stepped away slowly, keeping your eyes glued to the two large beasts. You looked down where you stood, seeing the lava boiling under your feet. You could only imagine how hot the floor was, you mentally noted not to trip or fall as best as you could.

You looked to the side, your foot finding a smooth surface to step on. Giving another look, you noticed the large metal circle in the center of the entire room, flat and lacking holes showing the lava. If that's what Leon wanted.

You looked up and continued firing at the beasts, one after the other to keep their attention towards you. You stepped back after each shot, attempting to get at least one of them towards the center of the circle.

Finally, you got the smaller one out of the two to stand dead center on the circle plate. But nothing happened.

That was anticlimactic for sure.

"What's it supposed to do, Leon?!" You yelled, listening for an answer.

You didn't get one.

"Leon?!" You shouted, keeping your eyes glued to the beast. The smaller Gigante continued to follow you, moving away from the circle in the center. You reloaded your gun quickly,  hearing the heavy rustle of chains draw incredibly close towards you.

You instinctively jumped out of the way fast, missing the large fist by a few inches. You rolled to a stop on the floor, the metal hot against the material of your pants. You looked up to see how awfully close you landed in front of the smaller Gigante beast, meeting up quickly with his twisted, furious stare.

Out of the corner of your eye, you spotted Leon standing far away. His hand gripped tightly onto the switch handle, looking at the beast for the right moment.

You looked down fast, seeing you were inch inside the circle platform. You had to move now so you didn't fall in. El Gigante roared at you, both his hands balled up tightly together over his head, heading down towards your direction. You jumped over again, dodging what would've been an ending blow. Just as you expected, you landed perfectly onto the grate surface.

The floor underneath the Gigante gave away, sweeping the beast off his feet. He fell into the hot liquid with a thick, heavy splash, his body steaming up immediately. He let out a series of roars and screams, his arms thrashing wildly into the air. He never stopped screaming, even as his head disappeared under the lava, hands outstretched towards the skies.
