Description

The chase was brief but intense. It had to be a assault class Gyle we happen across. Why isn't it ever a scout or engineer class. It's only hunters and shock troopers anymore. It came out of nowhere, and I mean nowhere. There was just nothing and then it just hit our squad. Luck this one must have used up it's energy packs for it's weapon. However, unlucky for Miles he got it this time, the monster caved his skull in with a chunk of concrete. A few shots was all I could manage before we piss bolted for the horizon. Keyla got winged as she and I tore off and headed north. I was hoping the rest of the squad would be able to make it to the rendezvous point at sundown, until I tripped over a broken board and when down like a ton of shit.

It was at that moment that I realized the Gyle was coming for us. Keyla took up a hiding place against the wall and I had nothing to do but play dead in the middle of the open. With my heart pounding in my throat, I could hear the heavy foot falls of the beast over the ringing in my ears as it came closer. With an exaggeratedly slow motion Keyla signaled me to stay quiet. Even if I had to make a noise, I knew I wouldn't be able to. God damn these monsters, we had barely beaten their invasion force already, but we were still fighting them one on one.

When will this end?
