"Bait..." Blood Stalk said back as we grabed the bodies and started to move.
"To get more food or to lure the monster?" I asked for clarification on there intensions.
"Yes..." They responded in a way that didn't tell me the answer.
"No, like what are we using the bait for, food or to lure the last monster?" I as
"Yes..." They said again. I can't tell if they are serious or if this is a bit.
"Is it both?" I asked in agitation.
"Yes..." Blood Stalk replied back which made me slap our face with our right palm.
"Then just say both." I said in a comedic voice to try and get a laugh out of them.
"Ok..." They said so plainly that I think they weren't doing it on purpose.
We were walking in silence for a while after that.
As we walked out of the cave and could see the sky above us with the sun just starting to rise.
"Time to use the good old Sting Viper wires to get up." I say while aiming at the wall to clime like usual.
We try and grab the wall like normal, but with the added weight of the corpses it wasn't as safe.
Our footing started to slip and with weight on one side we started to fall.
"What is wrong?" I said since I thought it didn't weigh that much because we could one hand it.
"To... much weight." Blood Stalk said without much thought.
"I think we need a better way of getting up and down from this hole." I say in agitation since we didn't even make it a foot up before the wire got pulled out.
"Gun..." Blood Stalk said in a wired way.
"What about the gun?" I asked in confusion while pulling out the gun.
"Make... holes" They said and I just went with the flow this time to see what happens. No point arguing or trying to get them to explain better.
"Not sure how this will help but sure, why not." I said firing at the wall and notice something.
"The bullets aren't moving weirdly." Usually when I shot the bullets would follow my aim including when it was recoiling. It made it miss a lot when fitting the first monster.
"Why is it different now?" I ask not really understanding why this gun keeps changing the rules on me. Does it shoot strait or curve.
"Bottle..." Blood Stalk answered and I actually got what they were saying.
"Quick, lets put the Cobra bottle in." I said suspecting what they had in mind.
They grabed the purple bottle and put it in the gun.
"Cobra!" The gun said with sound effects and distortion.
I fired at the wall again and the shots curved like they did before.
"Bottles make different shots. Huh, its a bit different from the show but I am not complaining. Lets try Rocket." I say a little excitedly at the prospect of new powers.
"Yes..." They said also joyful at using new abilities.
"Rocket!" The gun's voice played again.
"Let's see what this can do." I say pointing at the wall and pulling the trigger.
This time a small missile came out and hovered for a few seconds before blasting forward and making a small explosion on the wall.
"Cool." I say as pebbles fell. I am not sure how the finisher is going work now though since usually putting in the bottle is the finisher. Also the toy version only had six sound effects and Rocket wasn't one of them.
"How does this help us get up?" I ask since while this was a good discovery we still needed to get out of the hole with the bodies.
"Up..."Blood Stalk said as they grabed our right had with the left and aimed at the sky.
I didn't have the chance to say anything when they made our hand pull the trigger and it fired a two small rockets again.
Before it took of we grabed the corpses and the Sting Viper wires grabed the missiles.
"Hey, don't just shoot without warning." As I said this the rockets started to lift us and we started to ascend.
"This crazy idea working." Is all I could say as we were flying up at a faster speed now and I am in disbelief.
The speed kept increasing and we started to reach the surface with the remains in hand.
"How do we get off without exploding?" I asked the obvious question to this situation.
As the silence to my question became longer and longer I came to another realization.
"We are gonna die."
Hi,
This one had so many revisions made to it that I couldn't upload yesterday.
The bit at the beginning was way longer and less comidic if you can imagin.
Nothing even happened, it was just a walk out of the cave with no interesting dialogue. They didn't even make it out of the hole.
Its insane how boring it was to reread it.
Hope this way is more creative and enjoyable.
I am trying to express multiple themes later and I don't know if they will be expressed well or come across wirdly in the story.
Thanks for reading,
Caoi.
