Chapter 16: Combos

As Riley darted into the mid-street, he saw that the monster’s left hand had re-taken its position on one of the roofs of the nearby structures, but not the same one. It took him a bit longer to get to the other side, since his stamina was lower than it had been when he first ran over. As he neared the opening to the street, he could see lines of white energy streaking up and hitting the wrist and arm of Saros. It was the telltale sign of the item he’d given Seth.

When he reached the other side, he looked to the right and saw Seth crouched behind a toppled stall. He wasn’t far, and when Riley started running over to him, Seth turned his head. “How’s the other side looking?” he asked.

Riley shook his head. “Not the best,” he answered as he took cover behind the stall, and surveyed the area while talking. “Red Shotgun is over there, with someone named Green Melter. Two high damagers, as far as I can tell. There’s a guy creating that smoke up there,” he said, pointing to the cloud that still debilitated the monster. “There’s a guy with orange tentacles coming out of his back. Not sure if he’s tier one or two, but there didn’t seem to be anyone else over there. Besides the guy who tried to kill me.”

“Kill you?” Seth yelled. “Someone tried to PK you during the fight? Holy hell.”

“Yeah, Red Shotgun saved my ass,” Riley said, sighing.

“I didn’t even think to send someone over there with you,” said Seth. “Sorry man. But yeah, you probably shouldn’t travel alone in a warzone like this. Tons of people try to take advantage.”

Riley nodded. “I noticed.” Riley had never seen firsthand the sorts of lows people would stoop to, to take advantage of a bad situation. Saros attacking the city, was bad for anyone who operated in Gargantuan.

“Look out! It’s doing the jaw thing again!” came an unfamiliar voice, a short distance up in the street.

Riley looked out from the cover of the fallen stall and saw the guy responsible for the sharp yellow disks. The guy had streaks of yellow in his red hair, and wore a pair of gold-trimmed shoes with a black jacket and gray pants. He was pointing into the sky, at Saros.

Riley followed his gesture and saw the immense jaw of the monster lowering out of the smoke. If the previous attack from the monster had been any indication, then they were about to be hit with that wave of purple energy, but which street would be hit? The monster was still in the middle.

Once the monster’s jaw had lowered enough to point down to the street, a gust picked up. It sounded like a turbine, and the effect was almost instantaneous. The smoke the player in the other street had created, was getting sucked into the world boss’s mouth and was diminishing far faster than the player could create it.

Saros pulled in all the smoke until there was nothing but a tiny stream of it coming from the other street.
