Was that a… helicopter? A figure was rapidly falling from the sky onto the guard tower below. A chill flooded Chu Hua’s veins a split second before the explosion. She knew what this was. The tower exploded and the screaming started. She was stunned for a moment, stepping back until her back was against the truck, letting her have full vision of the chaos unfolding before her. Shots were raining down into the crowd, exploding tires, and people were scrambling to get on vehicles as quickly as possible. Even if they weren’t their vehicles. Chu Hua watched, horrified, as people were eaten by flames and as the crowd devolved into chaos. A few people came running for their truck. [color=white]"Chu! Get in the fucking car!"[/color] Kanna’s voice broke Chu Hua out of her stupor. [color=firebrick][i]Come on, come on… strategy. You’re good at this![/i][/color] Her brainwas moving so much slower than normal, a combination of sleep deprivation and panic and despair, but she was good at strategizing. She moved towards Kanna. [color=firebrick]“Chae! Kid! We have to go [i]right fucking now[/i]!”[/color] she screamed. [color=firebrick] “Where’s the fucking dri-”[/color] In the blink of an eye, Chu Hua was thrown against the hood of the car by another massive explosion. She felt the crunch of her bag as it smashed against the car, and felt the sand on her arms as she slid off. A moan escaped her lips. Her eyes were scrunched tight against the sudden flash of blinding light, and her ears were ringing painfully in her ears. [i]Everything[/i] hurt. She picked herself up off the ground gingerly. Her sense were fuzzy, and she had felt that explosion in her bones. Distantly, she hoped nothing in her bag had been broken. Especially not those tapes. But, more importantly, they still needed to get out of here. Where the fuck had that explosion come from? Chu Hua pushed herself off the hood of the car, staggering to peer towards the source of that noise. Two people were walking out of what looked like a large crater, surrounding by dead bodies, shooting into the crowd. Her face went white. They needed to find the driver [i]now[/i]! Chu Hua rounded the side of the truck, searching for where the driver and his friend had fallen. [color=firebrick] “You!”[/color] she screamed at Jin Wei, panting and still slightly wobbling. [color=firebrick] “you’re the driver, right?! Get in the car and [i]fucking DRIVE![/i]”[/color] She didn’t care how mean she sounded- they needed to go, and [i]now[/i]. These soldiers had no inclination to capture them alive. This wasn’t a hunt, this was an extermination. Breathless, Chu Hua raised her head, staring at the horizon. There was something else out there. She heard the screams, saw it jumping from car to car. What… what [i]was[/i] that? Something she could only describe as a monster came into view. Taller than her, its features warped, ripping people apart with its teeth and claws. She shivered. [color=firebrick]“What the fuck are you waiting for?! GO!”[/color] [/color][/quote] [/cell][/row][/table][/sub][/color]
