'How the hell did it get this close?'
"Shit!" Jaxon immediately raised his voice. "Everyone, get ready!"
Natasha and Na-rin reacted without hesitation, raising their pistols and firing into the sky.
THUP! THUP! THUP!
The bullets struck the creature, but it barely flinched. It continued diving toward them at terrifying speed, its movements resembling a massive hawk hunting its prey.
Jaxon swung his DMR upward and pulled the trigger.
THUP! The round slammed directly into the creature's chest.
A massive hole was blown through its body, sending blood and chunks of flesh flying out from its back.
Yet its momentum didn't even slow down.
Instead, the creature folded its body forward and spread its enormous wings. Its hooked claws extended toward them as it accelerated.
It was already too close.
Jaxon's eyes widened. "GET DOWN!"
He recalled his DMR into his storage space and quickly opened the System Store.
