Raven and Alara moved steadily through the blood-soaked sidewalks of the Central Park Zoo, both of them carrying their AK-203s, the air around them relaxed. Their shoes left foot prints in the snow and slush, mingling with the thick trails of blood and broken bones from the dozens of mutated animals they already killed on their way to their destination today.
Finally, they approached the veterinarian center. When Raven's eyes immediately caught sight of the massive pile of mangled, twisted animal corpses stacked high in front the entrance. Across from the pile of bones and bodies stood an old polar bear exhibit, now cracked and weather-worn from extreme hatred for being captured, the fences where bent over and walls broken open. As if a massive creature full of hatred and anger destroyed the place. Raven's expression sharpened. She knew instinctively this would be their final trial before they could retrieve the blood and genetic samples she wanted.
Suddeny, a deafening roar tore through the cold winter air, vibrating inside of their bones and echoing across the ruins of the zoo. Raven and Alara turned toward's the noise quickly, their eyes saw the source of the noise. As a massive form walked forward. Out from the shadows of the exhibit emerged a colossal polar bear, its once-white fur now covered with dried red blood. Its eyes glowed a violent, hateful red, each step echoing with the crushing weight of its monstrous body.
The mutated bear's mouth revealed long saber-tooth like teeth that stuck out of his upper and lower jaws. While short, sharp green claws dug into the frozen ground beneath him from his paws. Raven's heart pounded quickly, then steadied as she assessed this enemy. This bear is not just a mutated animal he has already become a level one mutated animal.
Without hesitation, Raven mentally deployed her stealth spider droanimals the system space. The spider disappeared from view behind Raven's back vanishing completely with its optical camouflage activated. At the same time, Metal Mouse materialized in front of Alara, its body disengaging from stealth and locking its claws into the ground to prepare for combat.
Raven turned to Alara, her voice serious and commanding. "Take cover behind Metal Mouse! If things go south, retreat into Sanctuary. I will be fine."
Alara nodded without hesitation, her face worried but serious. She crouched low behind Metal Mouse for cover, gripping her AK-203 tightly as her eyes locked on the bears body looking for an opening to shoot it.
Raven drew a slow breath into her body. As she stored her rifle back into the system space and summoned an M72 LAW, a Light Anti-armor guided missile commonly known as a bazooka a one-shot, 66mm guided rocket launcher Raven heavily modified to lock onto moving targets. With her level one enhanced strength, she hoisted it effortlessly onto her shoulder, her eyes narrowing as she aimed the missile.
From Metal Mouse's back, a Browning M2 .50 caliber machine gun turret emerged, massive and menacing as it unfolded to its full length. The gun locked into place, its armor-piercing rounds shining in the ambient sunlight. Metal Mouse dug its claws deeper into the ground, anchoring itself firmly as the barrel swung to track the polar bear's body.
Raven squeezed the trigger of the M72 LAW. As the rocket launched from its barrel and flew through the air, leaving a trail of smoke across the broken zoo sidewalk. With a thunderous impact, the explosive warhead smashed into the bear's right front paw. A massive pile of musscle and flesh blasted off in a spray of blood from the paw, leaving behind only an exposed bone paw fractured and splintering beneath the bear's weight.
Raven tossed the spent launcher into the system space and immediately pulled out another. She ran behind Metal Mouse, slipping into cover as the Browning M2 came alive with fire.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Armor-piercing rounds ripped into the bear's shoulder and upper torso, tearing gun wounds across its mutated hide and upper body. The bear screamed in agonizing fury, its head flying from side to side as blood gushed from the destroyed paw. Despite its injuries, the polar bear charged forward with terrifying speed, the ground trembling beneath each massive step.
Alara, steadying herself behind Metal Mouse, took a deep breath. She rose, her AK-203 braced against her shoulder. Her finger tightened on the trigger. The laser sight guided her aim as she unleashed a rapid burst of fluid poison bullets into the bears injuries.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The rounds shot into the bear's open wounds as the poison spread into his muscle and blood. Black blood began falling from the bullets impact points, flying across the broken snow as the bear howled again in rage. Metal Mouse's Browning M2 continued its relentless shooting, the massive gun unleashing devastating cover fire, each bullet hitting deep into the bear's mutated body.
The bear, now an amgry mess of fury and pain, continued charging forward, its savage roars echoing like across the zoo. Raven crouched behind Metal Mouse, her eyes calculating her next shot. She raised the second M72 LAW, her breathing steady as she sighted down the launcher locking onto her target.
Alara kept firing, her rifle shots finding their mark with confidence. Raven felt a surge of pride seeing Alara fight at her side so well.
