Zhe worms are everywhere. Do not listen to zheir singing. Do you hear me? Do not listen to zhem. Arm yourselves quickly.
TURRETS[There's a pair of turrets stationed on either side of the street. They fire indiscriminately at anything that moves, which includes Marie Delacroix, crouched down behind a dumpster, steadily acquiring more and more bullet holes. She peeks around the edge of her cover, firing off one round, and then another. They strike, piercing through the armored shell, and the second one is met with an explosion. Marie hardly hesitates before she rushes out into the open, something preternaturally fast about her movements. If she can duck down inside its range, she can hack the fucking thing...]
HYBRID[They look almost human, bipedal and fleshy, but something horrible has taken them over from within. One levels a shotgun at Marie, begging miserably,]
Kill me.
[Another is a step behind, head tilted back to swill down a large mouthful of vodka, liquid dribbling over its face. The empty bottle is thrown at her furiously as it in turns pleads,]
Hurry. Run.
MIDWIFE[Hacking apart a foul-smelling egg - life humming inside - with a laser rapier, Marie is being harassed by a swarm of insects, a cloud of something noxious hanging around her, expelled from the pulsating egg. She knows the caretakers must be close...]
RUMBLER[The creature lowers its shoulder, barreling forward and knocking her onto her side. She falls with a grunt, feet lashing out as she lifts her pistol. She fires one round that doesn't halt the monster in the slightest before it jams and she's forced to bludgeon annelid's head in with the butt of the gun. By the time it falls, head bleeding, it has clawed Marie viciously. Deja vu, she's lying very still on the pavement.]

[She begins to put the gun back together, the motions just as quick, finally reloading the thing with a sharp click. She glances over her shoulder, listening closely.]
no subject
[ But she's listening to something and he stills, listening as well. ]
no subject
[The sound is faint, but each of the beasts has a unique movement. The hybrids shuffle and moan, the lowest of the annelids, incomplete amalgamations in constant torment.]
no subject
[ Time to pack up his medkit. ]
no subject
My shipmates. Zhose infected.
no subject
[ Yeah okay this is bad. ]
Can they be cured?
no subject
[She pushes up into a crouch, staring around the corner, watching. The hybrids are not quick, many of them can be taken out before they even see her.]
And upon removal, zhe annelids release high levels of toxin into zheir former host.
[She levels the pistol, hands perfectly steady. The shot fires, straight through the creature's head. Its companion is quick to follow, charging mindlessly towards them. He falls before he is even halfway. Marie is on her feet. Time to move.]
no subject
Got it.
[ He follows, phaser at the ready. He's better at following when it comes to combat, but he's got her back. ]
no subject
You need to go now.
no subject
I'm not leaving you behind with those things.
[ She may need to knock him out. ]

[She begins to check the pistol over again absentmindedly. Really, she's just going to crack him across the temple with it though.]
no subject
[ At least until she knocks him out. Whoops. ]
