I was ready to go. I was stocked on ammo, so I wouldn't run out soon, but I was going to have to be careful. I couldn't just use it all in one go. I walked to the door to the right of the store, and opened it, decompressing the room I was in, into the vacuum of space. I exit the room, and see the power node that is floating out at the edge of the kinesis range. I grab it, and pocket it.

Then, I move through the destroyed part of the space station. The name of the station is the Sprawl, and it is in orbit around Saturn. I forgot to mention that earlier.

Gods, why does my thought process keep saying things like this. I might have to get that checked out when I get out of here. Anyways, I need to move on.

I move through the open corridor, and make it to the door to the boss room. Opening it, I make my way inside, and the door closes behind me, and the room pressurizes.

And then the boss comes out right away. At the edge of the room, was a damaged tram car of some sort, and the Tripod climbs up on top of it, before leaping off onto the floor and roaring at me. It leaps towards me by the door, and I dodge roll to the best of my abilities out of the way. And then run, while thinking. Fucking bitch demon put the boss to come out earlier! Fucking thing should have come out when I made it to the center of the room, not when the room pressurized! FUCK!!!

I ran around the edge of the room, away from the Tripod, and got behind one of the pillars that was scattered around the room. Then I remembered, the Tripod easily broke these, when it jumps. And then the pillar broke under the weight of the Tripos hitting it, and I was knocked to the floor. I flip myself over, and look up, seeing the Tripod hasn't quite made it to me yet, so I scramble to my feet. Then, out of instinct, I reach out, and grab at one of the pillar pieces lying on the floor with my kinesis, and fling it at the Tripod, smacking it in the face. It roared, and stumbled. And I started to shoot it's elbow joints, the yellow glowing flesh being the weak point to kill the monster. The left elbow was starting to look frayed, the dead body that made it up being mostly sinew after the few shots I put into it, when I had to dodge a swipe sent at me by it's right arm. I dodged it well enough, and fired a stasis at it, slowing it down for a few seconds, while I continued to hit the left elbow, severing it.

The Tripod stumbles, and roars as it starts to crawl at me with one arm. It brings out a proboscis like tentacle from it's mouth, with a glowing pustule on it, and uses it to swipe at me. I backpedal, and run into a wall. The Tripod closes the distance with me, and hits me, hard, sending me flying a little ways across the room. As I shake off the blow, and stand up, I look at the little indicator on my chest screen, and see I am in the yellow for health. I run away, as the Tripod comes near, reloading for the fifth time since I started to fight it. I run towards one of the doors along the back of the room from where the Tripod entered, and see something I had forgotten. It was a stasis recharge station.

I run to it, and activate it. I stay for a second, waiting for it to charge my stasis meter, and then run on, as the Tripod had gotten to close for comfort. After I got a few yards away, I turned around again, grabbed another piece of pillar, and slammed the Tripod over the head with it. But I didn't drop the piece after, but kept slamming it in the face with the piece of metal. After the seventh shot, the Tripod was getting very bloodied, and I slammed the piece down once more, letting go, before starting to shoot the right elbow, the boss being so stunned, it just sat there, not moving while I did so. Though, it shook it off quickly, as it started to roar again, and charged me faster than ever before. I dodged out the way of the charge, and moved to the side, and stasised it again. Then, I moved behind it, and continued once again to fire on the right elbow. After three shots, the elbow severed, and the Tripod started to speed up, screeching and thrashing around as it died.

After a second, it was still. And then I shot it again, cause double-tap, and it reared up, screeching one more time, and then died officially. I moved over to the giant corpse, and kinesised another piece of pillar over to me, and slammed it into the body with as much force as I could get behind it. The body exploded in a shower of blood and guts, and covered the area. As the rain fell, a ruby semiconductor fell with it, right in front of me. I picked it up, and started to move on.

"Daina? I'm out of the hospital."

'Okay, the tram station is just beyond the apartment blocks. You need to get moving.'

"Fine, I'll be there shortly." Not. I know I am going to have to go half way around the Sprawl practically before I finally reach her. But still, this is going to take time. So, I should get moving. I head out the exit, and moved into the hallway that went down a ramp, the lights turning on and flickering as I moved through. I walked around the U to the right, and went down the next ramp to the door out.

It led to a room, that must have been for some sort of maintenance, most likely the elevators, as I could see an elevator shaft with a broken elevator at the bottom. I moved around the room, collecting the money in the room, and headed through to the kinesis panel I had to remove. I grab the panel with my kinesis, and remove it, turning around and firing it away behind me. I then move to the vent access, and open it, crawling inside. I move on through, around the corner to the right, and out the vent exit on the other side, into the janitor's closet. Then, I was on Chapter 2 of the game.

I saw the store, and moved to it, activating it. I then went in to the store area, to hopefully buy a second gun. But when I opened the store, I didn't see the line gun, the next gun you could buy. I bought some ammo, and a power node, and then exited the store. Then, I called out.

"Nicole, the fuck did you do to the guns?" 'Nicole', came out.

"You aren't playing the game right, so you don't get anymore weapons. You have all the weapons you can use right now. But, you can still find the schematics for the health packs, and the stasis pack. Also, you forgot to ask for it, but I gave your suit the max level of armor. I shouldn't have, since you aren't playing the game as it was supposed to be, but I am fair. And, you were right, it was changed when I brought you in. So, the rules have changed. The game will be played your way, but it will be hardcore difficulty still. Go ahead and say what you want, to any of the characters, and do whatever, but know, that I will be trying to kill you." I nod.

"I wouldn't have it any other way." She nods, then leaves. I sigh. Well, guess I should stock up on ammo and health. I'm going to be needing them.

Author's Note

Hey, short chapter. I like to think that the demon that pulled me in actually is semi rational, and he likes to be fair. You will see why I have made it this way later. Anyways, it's 3:05, so I am going to bed. Night yall's.

Have a Jivin day!
