Secret Weapon

Jackie whipped between HUD screens to see the yellow dot at less than a mile away. And there were red dots closing in as well. Lots of them. Celebratory gunfire rang out. Armando’s men fired into the air. She hustled over next to him.

“What’s going on?”

“We’re going now,” Armando said, pointing to the celebratory gunfire. “We are going to confront the monster and then, God willing, we will head to level two.”

“What about the red dots?” Jackie asked.

“Other participants. Most likely Los Antrax,” Armando replied.

“What is that?”

“A team of murderers that provide armed security for the cartels. I have been at war with them for a very long time and now they have come to pay me a visit.”

“We can fight.”

“We will fight,” Armando replied with a nod. “But not against them. And not here.”

Several armored trucks motored up and Armando and three dozen of his fighters climbed into the beds. Jorge shouldered his assault rifle/grenade launcher, strapped the bulletproof vest as tight as possible, and shifted the bandolier containing a half-dozen forty-millimeter grenades the size of boiled eggs to his backside. He then climbed up into one of the other trucks which quickly drove off.

Jackie hopped up on the side of a truck, backpack over a shoulder, pistol in hand, and held on for dear life as the tires shot dust into the air behind them. The caravan drove at an alarming rate of speed down over a steep incline along the canyon wall. Fearful of showing any emotion around Armando’s fighters, Jackie kept her gaze down, hiding any reactions she might have to the bumpy ride and the danger ahead. The yellow dot was a half mile away at this point, and Jackie finally received a notification of its stats on her HUD.

Species: Machina Monstrum

Level:1

Class:Monster

Health:10/10

Attributes:A hybrid mechanical-biological marauder with oversized olfactory bulbs. It has the ability to sniff prey from eight miles away, has skin covered in hardened plates that can retract and allow the creature to draw up into a defensive ball, possesses spikes which result in instant calcification to anything they strike, and is able, depending upon conditions, to spawn parasitic offspring.

Explosions echoed up ahead. She gripped the edge of the truck and looked up to see that the other trucks were already firing into the blackness. Her truck gouged to a stop and eleven of Armando’s foot soldiers jumped out of the bed. She followed them. At the very least, they’d provide cover.

The air was cold and the ground was hard. Jackie held her pistol tightly against her thigh, navigating by her HUD and the light cast from several fires that were burning in the distance. Armando’s men began tossing grenades and firing rockets at the Machina Monstrum, which Jackie couldn’t make out clearly. From the description, she knew the beast would be fearsome, but knowing about it and seeing it firsthand were two different experiences. Despite having prepared herself, she dreaded facing a creature that was created, born, or bred for one purpose only: killing.
