Progress was being made in hurting the horrendous creature. While a good number of their force were injured, some quite severely, those clad in metal armor rose up to further their attack. The fiendish spider was making its way up the series of webs towards the ceiling when the powered armor shifted the attachments on its arms into a more ranged focus. At the same time, the significantly shorter individual configured his own arms, to spray some sort of liquid that quickly cooled the air that surrounded it.

	It barely made it up half way towards the ceiling when the demonic beast was surrounded by a series of white lines. The bullets fired from Natalia’s gun assembly could best be described as fast strings of light that could barely be seen if it wasn’t that there were hundreds of them. Unfortunately, the spider was too far up for Natalia to truly focus the spread at it, but plenty of them had manage to connect. The fast-moving steel easily penetrated the spider’s exoskeleton. The beast screeched, but continued to climb towards the ceiling.

	As it did so, though, strange crackles echoed the chamber. The sheer height of the ceiling made some of Ariamis’s coolant to simply fall back towards the ground without reaching the webbing. Even so, he was able to coat enough of the webbing with it, perhaps not as much as he would have liked. In the end, what he did manage to coat had impact. The webs become brittle in the low temperatures and started to snap under the weight of the large monster that they were trying to support. As the webs began breaking, the hideous fiend dropped off from the webs it was climbing and landed upon the ground once again.

	The hell spawn was angered by the constant attacks against it. It was wounded, and now that it’s attempts to flee were interrupted, it decided that it was either fight or die. Darting forward, it once again charged the powered suit of armor. No doubt as it reached closer, the gunfire would be more focused and able to easily mow the spider down. In retaliation to this, the spider released several large nets of webbing towards each of the powered armor’s arms. While the webs themselves would not be able to stopped the hail of bullets, the webbing would get stuck within the minigun firing and turning mechanisms to jam them or slow them down. Either outcome would give the beast just enough viability to reach it and attempt to dismember the machine one arm at a time. It could not win a straight physical fight, but if it continued to wrestle one arm using its forward legs and arms, and then continue to add more sticky webs to the ones still present, it could finally incapacitate it.
