Tattletale, Weld and I hurried to back away as he began to climb to his feet, Tattletale recovering her lightning gun. I could see her debate striking him again, but she seemed to decide it would be better to keep her distance and hold on to it.
Is it still functional?
I could see Shadow Stalker materialize behind Weld, with Bitch approaching from the other end of the hallway. One of the dogs, the setter whose name I couldn’t quite remember, had climbed to her feet to join Bitch. Grue was still out of action.
Plot twist, the setter’s name is Aisha.
Weld started laughing, the noise just a little off, coming from someone who I suspected didn’t even have to breathe.
Having fun?
Tattletale caught some meaning in his laughter a second before Regent did. Tattletale, Regent and Shadow Stalker all simultaneously turned toward the front of the building. Regent and his puppet uttered a whispered “Oh shit” in unison.
…
The floodwater and moisture were stirred into an whirlwind flurry around the metal frame by turbines and jets, pushing water and debris a distance away as it set down.
Why’s it always gotta be water…
As the engines turned off, the water slopped back into place, lapping around four metal legs.
Reinforcements have arrived… and the Undersiders were having enough trouble with Weld alone.
It was squat, the frame low to the ground, with a snakelike head, and a segmented, sinous body. It had four legs and a long tail that trailed on the ground in a zig-zagging shape, segmented much as the body had been.
Wait, what? A salamander bot, or something like that?
These reinforcements are taking a very different form than I had expected.
Also if this thing has a lot of exposed metal, try to get it to collide with Weld.
