Erika's legs gave out as she discovered that she was out of ammo.
"Wait... does this mean...?"
Out of shock and realization, Erika slapped herself across the face.
"Bullets did work. It just healed almost instantly."
"All those people that went missing... are you traumatizing them so you can live off of their fear?" Petunia hesitantly asked the snake.
The snake seemed to grin, as if it was confirming that question to be correct. It turned it's focus back to the military bear, still in it's grasp.
"Time to finish what I started."
The cobra closed it's eyes, the shield on the back of it's head fanned open as if to give off a more intimidating appearance. It's jaw opened, where it's long sharp fangs revealed themselves. A dark blue aura surrounded the snake, before striking it's target.
Biting the head of the military bear, it sank it's fangs in the flesh as crimson red and dark blue merged together, creating a murky purple substance. Both sides were screaming that they were going to die, in their own way of course. Flippy was beginning to cry, screaming for a pain to stop and for someone to save him. Fliqpy was just erupting with cusses and slurs to the point where the others helplessly watching had to cover their ears. Some could faintly hear sounds as if glass was beginning to break. They thought they were hearing things at first, but they were left paralyzed when they saw that the bear's whole body was cracking, with that purple liquid oozing from the cracks. The cracks got more and more severe, and the bear looked like he was literally going to shatter into a million pieces.
"No...!"
"Don't do it...!"Both sides stopped screaming, before pleading silently. At the last second, they both shouted the same thing at once.
"You're gonna break us apart—"
"You're gonna break us apart—"*SHATTER!!*
The cracks and all physical signs of injury vanished in an instant. One turned into two, separating them from the same body. Both sides fell onto the ground, where the short silence was quickly broken when Erika naturally let out a heartfelt cry.
"NOOOOO!!!!"
The snake reopened it's eyes, before turning to it's left. When the crimson red eyes met Flippy's, he knew he was screwed, which caused him to let out a frightened whimper.
The snake was suddenly caught off guard when a sharp pain hit the back of it's head. It swiftly turned around, where it saw Fliqpy, barley on his knees, and from his position, probably just threw something at it. The snake thrashed it's head around, causing one of the katanas to fall from it and onto the ground.
"C-Come at me.... you b*tch...!" Fliqpy was slowly pulling himself off the ground while taunting the snake. The cobra took it's focus onto him and slithered forward.
"I swear, if you're all gonna cry over a snake..." Fliqpy picked his katana back up.
"Then you're all being pathetic." Fliqpy dodged the snake's attack, before throwing the katana so it would land right next to Flippy. Still in shock from what happened a moment earlier, both sides didn't have a lot of strength. Fliqpy fell back on his knees, breathing heavily. The snake towered behind him, but he was ready.
Fliqpy made his signature menacing grin, looking at Flippy dead in the eye. "Creating life from your trauma, amazing..." Fliqpy chuckled a bit.
"You've always been a crybaby..."
The snake lunged forward, before spitting out a thick substance mixed with distorted colours.
The substance got all over Fliqpy, where it quickly covered every inch of his body. Just at the last second, Fliqpy's face changed from confidence, to regret.
He felt fear for the first time in his life, and cried calling for help.
But it was too late for him.
The substance was sucked back into the snake, only leaving a greet beret resting on the ground where Fliqpy once stood.
A couple people tried to say something, but they couldn't make a sound. Erika was frozen to the spot, with a frightened Sniffles hiding behind her. Cuddles and Petunia began to huddle together. Luna grabbed Flippy and carried him back to the group, still in a matter of shock herself. Flippy looked like he was dead due to how shocked he was, but he was breathing, but refusing to blink.
Luna was the last one that still had the guts to fight. She stared at the snake dead in the eye, unafraid of death. The snake hissed as it moved closer. Luna got in front of the others and spread her arms out.
The snake lunged at everyone, causing everyone but Luna to flinch.
Luna fearlessly opened her mouth to shout something, but what came out was—
A roar...? Humans can't roar like that...
The snake was startled by the roar, and stopped it's attack before it even struck.
Dumbfounded, Luna turned around to the group, who were looking up at her in the same confusion she was in.
"That, was not me..." She admitted.
Another loud roar startled everyone, but Cuddles saw what was making the sounds, and hope sparked in his eyes.
"It's her!"
