LEVEL EIGHT- Metè arvü

Out of sixteen TRUSKET's, only two had died. Over 800 of Andrew's LAST LEGION had died and returned to stone and steel.

About an hour had passed since Cole was on cooldown, and Andrew had gone through three sets of armor.

Liz cast spell after spell, disrupting the direct charge of the remaining beasts and keeping them away from the otheres who were taking cover behind the wall of ice she created.

"~BURN!~" yelled Bethany. Her powers made it such that she could not speak normally unless she intended to use a skill. A wave of flame appeared and burnt up one of the stray TRUSKETS that was trying to sneak around the wall.

Suddenly, the beady eyes changed color from black to red, indicating that they had entered rage mode. Bethany scrambled away from the spot she was standing on, and in less than a second there was a pile of monster where she would have been.

Liz noticed this, and sent a speed buff to Bethany, who was running away from a particularly large one.

The creature kept pace with Bethany. Planting her heel sharply, she managed to quickly duck under Luca's line of sight as an oddly shaped canister appeared next to the head of the beast.

As it turned to attack the cannister, Luca appeared opposite its eyes in a blast of smoke. Activating a skill ~SHADOW MULTIPLYER~, six shadowy versions of himself appeared and started digging their daggers into its hide, ripping out chunks of flesh.

Bethany signed at Luca when he had killed the TRUSKET. Luca just smiled lol and disappeared in a puff of smoke, reappearing in front of another wild beast.

Andrew activated his hidden skill that came as a set move from the armor he currently wore. ~LORD OF BABYLON~ sent out a shock wave that knocked out the nearest TRUSKET. After almost three seconds, as it was regaining its senses, Cole ran shoulder first into its head, making it reel back by a few steps.

"Do you remember that one tv show, uhh... Total drama?" he asked while swinging punches at the beasts head.

"Im kinda in the middle of a fight, now", Luca grunted, dodging a blow.

"Well i was just thinking, that Chris character, he knew he was animated i think. Kinda like we live in a story right now, all that simulation theory stuff ...rather suspicious innit? Cuz i say all sorts of silly shit and the author has no choice! I think im one of 'em main character types, yunno? And this would be my fourth wall break moment, wouldn't it?"

Luca just stared at Cole in wonder. "You've been drinking again havent you? You're babbling nonsense!"

Cole smiled, chuckled and snapped the neck of the TRUSKET he was fighting. Sprinting to where Bethany was crouching, he drew an arrow and sent it whizzing in the direction of a clump of trees where it blew up on contact with the first tree in its path.

Liz twisted from the incoming claw attack from a TRUSKET, and then bent almost double to dodge a tail swing. " These things are so annoying! I dont wanna (~WHITE BLIZZARD!~) have to miss another mall run."

Bethany signed with an exasperated look on her face. Liz shook her head. " I know that monsters give us drops and all, but the mall just has the right kinda clothes! I miss wearing gowns!" She whined.

Another two hours passed before they managed to beat the last TRUSKET. The group sat down to rest and eat something to regain strength, while Andrew salvaged the cars radio system and played "Be myself" by Tom Walker on it.

Cole hurled a bit of cheese at his head, laughing. "Youre an ass you know that right?"

" Well, a little Tom Walker never hurt anyone." Andrew replied dodging the dairy turned projectile.

"Nice to see you all having fun, but I need to remind you that this is a timed mission you're on. I suggest you start walking."

Cole threw a tomato at Enki's glittering form. The pixelated god just blinked as it passed through him and splattered all over Liz.

"COOOOLLLLLEEEEEE!!!!!"
