This one fought. After the first shot it had lifted one of the sycthing talons off the ground and slid it into the pistol arm, the motion was so...gentle. The prey could not expire before it was done. The melee weapon the same and it grapped his arm, its mostrous strength condending with his while it began to apply more effort to the scything talon in his arm, twisting the barbed tip.

OOC: @Ven So, what, it's impaled both of James's arms with its long talons? Or is it gripping one of them with its rending claws?

OOC: Gripping the melee arm and has impaled the pistol arm. Its other Scything talon is dug into the ground behind him and arched over his head while the other rending claw is idle but I have to go soon but I have and idea.

Seeing as how her previous shots had missed and the ceature had now ensnared James, Erica held the pistol in both hands again and fired the remaining sixteen bullets at the creature, aiming for the base of the creature's neck.

James howled in agony as the barbed talon slid through his flesh and then gripped in place, lacerating muscle and forcing apart the radius and ulna. His pistol fell with a soft thud and the rush of adrenaline flooded through his body. He twisted his relatively uninjured arm while pulling it down, combining his own ferocious strength with the techniques he had learned from the beginning of his martial arts training to escape the grip on his wrist. The movement was instinctive and beyond this he flailed helplessly, the pain all but overwhelming his higher faculties.

OOC: By the way, while I once compared James to a scaled down Albert Wesker, not all of his traits were enhanced equally. His speed was the least affected, making him roughly as fast as an average Olympic athlete. His reflexes, vision and healing are better than any human, while his brute strength was the most affected, so I suppose he would be about two thirds as strong as a Space Marine.

Erica's shots hit off its back carapace, sending the bullets whizzing to the side. It wrenched the talon from the prey and tossed it aside. It wheeled around and shrieked at Erica. As the only Lictor on the planet it had yet to acquire any genetic material and so could not risk a damaging blow and so backed up slightly before its legs tensed and it bounded into the trees with another shriek.

The battle in the ship raged on, the Prime holding its guants back mostly while it devised a new strategy.

James crashed down into the undergrowth, his weapons scattered. He lay motionless and shaking, gripping his ruined right forearm.

OOC: So ends the first encounter with the Horror from the Stars. Wish it could have been longer but alot of what I do could be considered horror. Lictors, Genestealers and perhaps Zoanthropes are the worst as they cast the Shadow Across the Warp which darkens every radio and any form of communication while they shriek physcically that tears at the souls of those it fights.

Erica all but froze up when the horrid creature turned and shrieked at her. Much to her relief, it fled.
She reloaded as quickly as she could, taking about four seconds to do so, then looked around for any trace of the creature. Seeing none, she rushed over to James and crouched down beside him, inspecting his wounds.
"C-can you stand...?" She asked with a panicked voice.

OoC @Ven: The Tyranids sound rather Dead Space-ish. They look the part too.

James's face was white, and he didn't respond immediately.
"Ff- ffu..." There was a lot of blood soaking into the leaf litter, both from the gashes on his back and a lot more from his mangled arm.

Erica was at a loss for what to do. She didn't have any medical knowledge, even a task as simply as applying a bandage was beyond her.
After sifting through some panicked thoughts, Erica figured she should at least get James out of the foliage. The creature was most likely still watching them, ready to strike from virtually any angle at any time.
Erica took a moment to look round to see if she could see a way out of the foliage. Once she saw rays of light breaking through the leaves not far away, she moved behind James, stuffed the pistol behind her waistband and grabbed James under the armpits and lifted him up. She wasn't nearly strong enough to carry him propperly, so dragging would have to suffice.
Erica began dragging James out of the foliage, and into the open.

James moaned in agony as Erica began to drag him, but knew what she was trying to do. His heels scuffled against the ground, a weak attempt to walk with her.

OoC @Salty: We're never done with 40K chars.

"Don't move. Save your strength." Erica said to James with a low voice when she saw him feeble moving his legs.
She kept dragging James towards where she saw the rays of light, stopping to look over her shoulder from time to time to look if she was still going in the right direction. Eventually, they came out in the open. Erica gently placed James on the ground... then went back to panicing as she still didn't know how to treat his wounds.

The long trail of blood that soaked the ground began to pool beneath James again. He was in shock, his face white and a sheen of sweat on his brow. The attack had taken a toll on him that nothing else he had experienced in years could have.
