Yipip kept looking back, the footsteps of his fellows blocking out any other sounds. He sped up slightly, almost knocking into Chi, who snarled angrily at him. He relaxed, this was normal behavior toward him these days, so he calmed down. The group ascended a flight of stairs, creaking along the rickety wood. They arrived in a hallway, shadows clinging stubbornly in the corners. The Elite snorted, sending Chi and Cacoo into the darkness, their plasma pistols lighting the way with their faint yellow glow. Yipip shivered in fear as he was left with the towering form of the Elite, scrunching in on himself in order to remain unnoticed. As Chi and Cacoo rounded a bend in the hallway, their lights disappeared. For a few moments there was silence, then the lights reappeared, both grunts running for all they were worth as a big -something- chased them. The Elite snarled, drawing his plasma sword and illuminating the hallway with a bright light. Several more of the Somethings were revealed, surrounding the Elite and Yipip. One, the black armored one with red eyes who Yipip had encountered earlier, hissed, energy forming around his hands as the Elite turned to him. "Beast." He growled, raising the sword. The creature stared at the Elite calmly as his sword dissolved into nothing, the light sucked into the orb of energy that he now carried. The other two jumped the Elite from behind, pinning him to the floor as he snarled and cursed. The dark one turned his crimson eyes to Yipip, dismay etching his features before the grunt felt a hard mass collide with the back of his head. He fell to the floor, sinking into darkness and knew no more.
