Gaunt,
Human,
12 years ago
The pain had been instantanious, he slumped back abit, turning his head to see what had happened, it had hit his left side.
Gaunt darted his head, looking down his elongated body, he saw what had given him the shudden shock, there were degrading metalic rods in his side. Keeping himself calm not a single sound resonated from his qwivering lips, the sharp little rods that had penetrated his exoskeletal skin burnt away, lapped up in his acidic blood that sloshed in and out of his wounds, steaming the air around him.
He turned his head to Iseijin, letting a soundless call as he did. They were Predator spears that had hit him, and as he hadn't been severed in two Gaunt had to assume that they were only designed to maim and not to kill, but why?
That his call had got Iseijins attention, he didn't know, all he could see was that she had not taken a hit, that opened a new possibility for him. He had been hit, he was the Hunters target, the closest prey, and a good decoy. Backing away from Iseijins position, slowly edging his way through the bush, Gaunt turned around, readying himself to move.
He saw two figures through the bush, the now familiar sent of the Predator, the Hunter that had him in his sights, and the second figure a ...
'YYEESSSS!!!'
His mind raced with excitement, every muscle of his being contracted and relaxed in time with his mind, fluctuating rapidly. Gaunt grinned to himself. The second figure, a Human , and not just any Human, that old sent, those pheromones, it was the Human he had fought with on his last endeavour, the one from the barren ice world.
Gaunt continued to pace slowly back through the brush, letting out more silent signals towards Iseijin as he went, watching the figures through the brush, ready to move.
