Black Forest: Entropy

by Alfoals Trottenbauer


IV - Transit System

Sven trotted to a ledge of the storage facility where a tram stood on a rail. The console of the tram was sparking and the door opened and closed constantly. Sven stepped in and turned it on. It started to speed past, with the tram's announcements garbled out of recognition.

"The Black Forest Research Facility is... Now under military control." It said after speeding through the end of it's announcements, changing it's voice deeper at 'Is'. The tram flew off the rails , plummeting into an abyss.

Sven jumped out of the tram through the window. Glass sparkled as it flew through the air, following the impact. He was now hanging onto a ledge of a concrete platform by the forelegs.

He clambered up onto the ground. A residential complex was ahead.

A security guard trotted over to him.

"Quite a fall there... You alright?"

Sven was gasping for air. There were shards of glass in his white fur, soiled as well by the brown water from before. Among the various splotches on his coat were stains of blood and sickly green liquid.

Sven nodded vaguely.

He trotted toward the residential building.

The security guard followed him.

A Large corpse broke through the door, a parasite on their head.

The guard opened fire with his pistol.

It's lungs filled with blood as it lifted the guard by the neck.

"Shit! Help me! P-please!" The guard begged

Sven fired into the corpse's body.

The monster threw the guard into the abyss.

He screamed as he fell down, with an eventual crash.

Sven aimed the assault rifle, aiming directly at the parasite. The monster reached a gnarled hoof at him, when Sven opened fire into it's head. The muzzle flash lit up the otherwise dark room, along with the smell of gunpowder. He emptied a clip into the beast's head. It slumped forward and fell on the ground.

He trotted into the residential area.
