Doomed City of Ruinholm

Lex, in his Nosferatu form, was dizzy as he felt the stones on top of him. He shoved the rocks off him while looking at the Hive Butcher standing there. Once he was out of the rubble, he flexed his limbs.

The pain shot through his body, causing him to let out a growl of pain before charging at the Butcher, who slashed at him, but Lex dodged it and grabbed hold of the talon. He exerted force on it, causing it to bend in the opposite direction.

That's when the Butcher let out a roar of pain and stumbling backward before Lex turned into his normal form and started fleeing down the tunnel he came from. The monster saw this and was enraged, so it started chasing him.

Lex yelped when realizing the Butcher was fast, but that didn't stop him from taking out one of his Gearhearts and shooting the tunnel walls with fully charged bullets. His shots caused explosions to shake the ground before it collapsed.
