"Focus you're fire on the knights," spoke Splinter. The cultists mustered up whatever firepower they could and only managed to bring down one of the beasts. "Lucky fire a rocket now!," Splinter exclaimed.

"Uh about that," Lucky said "We appear to be out of rockets."

"Shit," Splinter responded, "Everybody back fall to the tunnel!"

As the group went into a retreat the knights fell upon them, two cultists were cut down after an attempt to get a few more shot out at the knights. Flint turned to around to save them but it was too late, in a vain effort he fired four rounds at the large knight that approached him. The knight summoned a darkness shield in front of him that warded off all of Flint's shots, as he reloaded his sniper rifle the knight roared and swiped the gun from his hand with one swing of his cleaver. The knight then followed up the attack by kicking the fragile human to ground, then he raised his cleaver for the death blow.

Lucky noticing Flint was in danger rushed over to help him, he sprinted towards the knight and leaped onto its back his shotgun held across the creatures neck in a choking position. Whether these things needed to breath or not didn't matter but buying time for Flint did. In a reaction the knight reached for the foolish human that was clung to his back, Lucky simple told Flint, "Now!"

Flint had just finished popping another mag into his rifle when Lucky spoke, the sniper quickly pressed the barrel of the gun up against the knight forehead. He then released all four round directly at point blank.

"So I guess we're even now right?" Lucky asked.

"Whatever you say," Flint replied.

Their banter may have been heroic but it did little to stop the hive's advance, the cultists were forced to leave the Hellmouth against such heavy resistance and regroup outside.

"How many did we lose?" Splinter asked with an angry tone in his voice.

"Eight," Flint answered.

"We should call for an evac," Splinter spoke.

"About time we got off this rock," Lucky spoke, "I'm sick of fighting those freaks down there."

"Its not about that, we have to report back what we saw," Flint replied.

"Besides I have a feeling we're not done with the Hive just yet," Splinter said as the remainder of the platoon boarded the dropship to return home.
