Re: Atlantis (Space and City Side)
The creature made it's first mistake of the day. Clearly, it was over confident in it's technology, or that nothing posed a serious enough threat to it. Whatever the reason, it barely bothered to move at all, firing a second shot off at Samantha. While Ian was able to grab it while it distorted and briefly became visible, the blast it fired slammed full on into the staggering Samantha, dropping her instantly with a cry of surprise.
After dropping to the floor, she didn't move at all, seeming to be completely immobile, or worse, out cold. The two men with him though didn't miss a beat, and the moment the creature was partially visible, and Ian's power yanked it, they opened fire on it.
There was a hum of energy, the creature probably trying to fire at Ian, but one of the men scored a lucky shot. There was a sudden flash of energy, as if something had exploded, and suddenly it's cloak failed. At the same time, a piece of what was clearly a weapon flew off to one side, possibly from being struck as it discharged.
Now visible, the creature was huge. It was massive, easily over eight feet tall and probably well over four hundred pounds, but powerfully built. Ian might have no doubt this thing could snap a human in half if it chose to, with it's bare hands. So this was what had been causing the women to vanish?
It let loose a roar as it tried to break free of the hold, and once it realized it couldn't, there was some sort of sound issued from it. The moment it did, every single predator in the area snapped it's attention towards Ian, and began coming for him. The remaining people opened fire on them, but they couldn't possibly down them all before they reached Ian, which meant he'd either have to split his focus to try and contain those that got through, or drop the creature he had currently in order to protect himself, which left it free to do gods knew what.
