A Pause in the system

Wave 10 was just about to begin and Zain was thinking of all the possibilities it could have. Would it be several of the stage 2 types, maybe even one of each? It was tricky because he had skipped a few levels, so it could possibly even be something he had never seen before.

When the timer finished counting down, right out of the tunnel a creature had run in and jumped up in the air. It was large in size and it was something Zain had seen before. From its body, one of the strange bones grew, extending out like a spike and headed out right towards him.

It was unexpected, so rather than dodge, Zain lifted his weapon on its side and blocked the hit. The attack had pushed Zain back making him skid across the ground slightly.

'It's the stage 3! The same one I fought against outside the subway.' Zain realised. 'I won that fight because I was able to summon the other zombies, but here I can't. I have to beat it with my own skill.'
