New round, Pass 3
The drone in the other room continues to obey it's final orders from Chougou as rounds erupt from the western wall, aimed at the terrifying creature. It fires with surprising accuracy, striking its target. The creature, so focused on Torpor as a target, it completely ignores the incoming drone fire and the lucky shot tears into its arm, completely shattering the bone and leaving the now useless arm hanging by bleeding flesh and muscle tissue alone.
It roars and swings its blade at Torpor with its one remaining good arm. Though it clearly is less accurate with one arm, accuracy isn't THAT concerning with a blade this size. The blade does manage to touch torpor's armor, clearly damaging it as acid oozes across it's surface. Luckily it was only a glancing blow and not something more serious. ((Torpor's armor is damaged by the sword. Reduce its rating by 1))
Torpor and Sato respond with their own attacks, the former firing a shot into the monster's gut and Sato going for the throat with his dagger. Torpor's shot strikes solidly, but does not quite take it down. Sato's blade glows as it slides under the beast's jaw, all the way to the hilt. There is a flash of energy within the creature's skull, lighting it up from within. When the light fades, so too does the light fade from the creature's eyes and it crumples to the ground, lifeless. As the creature's blood pools on the ground around its fallen blade, it's massive form shrinks and its fur recedes into its flesh, until all that remains is a Desian human male wearing nice clothing, his left arm barely holding on by a thread.
A lightning strike illuminates the room for a brief moment and Sato raises his head in a victorious howl. With Chougou bleeding out on the floor, you are relieved for the battle to have ended. However, before you can even begin to take stock in what has happened, Sato turns to Torpor and growls, blade held in a combat position. There is no look of recognition in his eyes; no ability to tell friend from foe. There is only the hunt, and Torpor quickly realizes he is about to become the new prey if he doesn't think fast...
