Victor sprinted through the maze of pipes. His team followed close behind. Kilo, his most critical team member, agreed they’d seen Penelope and a giant Danestar bodyguard. Victor swore the other figure was Nathan Hawk—the tourist who claimed he was leaving via the speed lift. Kilo hadn’t been sure, however. Which was good for Hawk. Because if Victor learned the man had known where Penelope was and hadn’t told him, there was going to be a duel.

“We’re moving up to hold the hallway entrance. We can’t overtake the governor before the bulk of the swarm catches us,” Marsten said.

“Hammer, check-in. I haven’t heard from you for a while,” Victor said, then turned, stopped, and shot a half dozen dog-like attackers. Thousands of the animals bayed in the darkness. The deck shook from their approach despite the distance.

“I’m still with Marsten. My comms are glitchy,” Hammer said.

“Kilo, I’m with you. Let’s hold the hallway. Maybe we can’t extract the governor from this mess, but we can keep her from getting overrun,” Victor said.

“We might catch up to her, assuming we survive this round,” Kilo said. “Which we won’t.”

“Thanks for the positivity. Knew there was a reason I brought you on this mission.” Victor fired twice, incapacitating two monsters.

“Anytime,” Kilo fired on his own targets, then sprinted away from the growing cluster of mutants.

Victor followed his friend to their rally point at the main hallway entrance, shouldering aside a humanoid that jumped out from behind a ventilation tower. During his first encounter with these things, he would’ve stopped to finish the monstrosity off. Since then, he learned that didn’t matter as much as it did with traditional opponents. He would see his victims again even if they were barely recognizable.

The dark entity at the center of the EM somehow put them back together, or maybe recycled their body parts. He was positive he’d shot the same set of homemade armor at least twice, once on a male humanoid and once on a female humanoid—more or less. These things were abominations in every sense of the word.

Kilo took one corner of the hallway. Marsten and Hammer darted inside and began to check equipment and reload accelerator rifle magazines. Victor took the other corner and tried to fire whenever Kilo was reloading. His friend did the same.

“I’ve been on your ass this whole mission,” Kilo said.

“True.” Victor hoped they were going to put their animosity behind them.

“You know why, right?”

“Yeah, Kilo, I think I do,” Victor said.

“Because we’re in this together. No one survives if we make a mistake. And you owe me twenty poker chips.”

“Since when?”

“Since you paid me back four hundred and eighty of the five hundred you owed me from that time back on Gildain near the casino district,” Kilo said.

“Oh, right. I thought you’d forgotten.” Victor reloaded, fired on something that look like half a horse and half a man. “Once we get the governor to safety, were going to organize an all-out assault on the entity.”

“Only way to stop this chaos is to kill the mutant king,” Kilo said.
