Interstellar

Revenge

Mike Onno, age 34, 2027.

"CASSIE, NO" I shouted. "PUT HER DOWN NOW" My screaming was doing nothing. A roar echoed off in the distance, I did not know what it meant. I got into my plasma tank, one goal in mind, Save Cassie. In a rage, I fired off all of my ammo at full power at once, decimating one of the hundreds of tentacles. This was all I needed, Cassie fell out of his destroyed arm. I had hit right on target, but had no plan to save her in free fall. I could catch her, I had to. Sprinting at full speed to her, I slowed down perfectly to be right below. I braced my knees and stuck out my arms. She slammed into my arms, but I was able to slow her momentum and let her to the ground. I helped her up. Cthulhu, in a rage of losing one of its arms, wildly swung his arms around killing even more of us. In his rage, even he ignored the distant roars, until they weren't so distant. Uc'thabbir jumped on to Cthulhu, beating him to a pulp with his fists. Cthulhu retaliated by restraining Uc'thabbir with his many tentacles. He stabbed Uc'thabbir with his tentacles, holding back his fists at all times. Me and Cassie knew we had to help at all costs. Then, it clicked to us. The titan mechs. If we both piloted one, we could take the monster down. Taking the lift would be dangerous, so the stairs it was. Stepping down the stairs faster than we had thought possible, we finally reached the Mech room. Neither of us had ever piloted one before, but we had to try. We got into our pilot rooms. The mech lift brought us up, and we heard the engine starting. We walked the mechs forward, still getting the hang of controlling them. Once we had it figured out, we came to rescue Uc'thabbir. I was equipped with a massive plasma sword which I hoped could penetrate Cthulhu's armored skin. My sister stayed back with ranged weapons, and fired at full power. This stunned and staggered Cthulhu, giving Uc'thabbir enough time to land a full strength strike at the monsters stomach. I stabbed Cthulhu in the back, holding him in place with my free hand. Uc'thabbir laid hit after hit against Cthulhu, weakening him severely. My sister fired just as the monster prepared to fight back, stunning him again. Uc'thabbir grabbed Cthulhu by the throat, savagely ripping off one of its arms. I used this opportunity to cut off Cthulhu's tentacles at the beginning. Cthulhu had gotten furious, and went into his full power. He fired a laser beam from his eyes, sending Uc'thabbir far away and on the ground. Cthulhu came in to finish him, but I held the monster back. The monster struck me to the floor with immense power. My sister fired at him but he hardened his skin, making the attack not leave a dent. Cthulhu, injured and angry, opened his wings and prepared to fly away. None of us were prepared to stop him. In his final moment there, he left us a telepathic message: You will die in the most horrible way, I will construct your worst nightmare and make you face it! This is not the end, mortals. We will all come back and DESTROY YOU! I then realized the position that we were in. Uc'thabbir can no longer go undercover, a third of our base is destroyed, Cthulhu can recover all of the damage given to him, and all of the remaining Old Ones will come for us. We need to bolster our defenses much better than last time, we will be prepared.
