Snippet #2816532

"Lost Gods...-KLIK-? No, no, no. This isn't right!" The roach began to rant to itself, panicked as Devon reformed behind it "I cannot fathom -KLIK- the unfathomable. But the return of the Lost Gods, no no...-KLIK-!"

The roach soon calmed itself and ceased his rants. "Wait...-KLIK-. BORROWED time, you say? There is no more -KLIK- time. We are at it's end. All paths lead here. None could escape -KLIK- it. None except the roaches. None may leave...-KLIK-...except the roaches. It was we who survived the -KLIK- culling of all life. The great Time Tunnels you -KLIK- stand in is our handiwork..."

A faint noise could be heard. A WHIRRING...

"The only borrowed time -KLIK- is your strand of time. It is -KLIK- marked m for death by the dark -KLIK- ever present masters!"

WHIRRR

"What, you mean the Beast?" Henry asked, raising am eyebrow, his own blaster now drawn and trained on the massive roach.

WHIRRR

"Ha...ha...so you have seen it, little Lost Gods. -KLIK-...you know there is no hope.The Earth...will -KLIK- be but a remnant. And it's sole rulers will -KLIK- be the roaches!" the roach cackled as the WHIRRING grew violently loud and the broach let out a shriek.

Everything seemed to stand still for a moment but Devon had suddenly been where he was standing previously, before he had moved to attack the massive insect. Instead of spending any further time speaking the roach shot at them from it's two weapons, whips of red energy swinging forth at Henry, Devon, and Sasha.

"Looks like some kinda hard light construct!" Henry shouted, attempting to move out of the way to avoid the projectiles. They...PROBABLY wouldn't kill if they hit any of them but he didn't want to take that chance. The roach did mention something about serving. Apparently it aimed to capture them all. A task it would find far more difficult than it assumed...
