Brimstone listened to
Alliser Roche intently, he could respect this man, knew what he wanted and made sure it would happen, he didn't look like he had much too him physically so it didn't lessen him that he was paying to have his dirty work done.
70000 credits, Brimstone had hoped for more but he figured he only needed 50 to get what he needed so after the cut to the guild, he would be on his way. beggars cant be choosers, maybe if he hadn't shown up in that damn x-wing.
"Your on, Roche" he replied, putting his helmet back on, and unclipping the axe from his back.
"a Myntor you say? never killed one of them before, be right back"
He pulled the door in, stepped in to the darkness and closed the door behind him. This was a large storage room with long racked shelves, it stank in here. He surveyed the room through his HUD, no movement detected other than a cctv camera in the room that he suspected was being used to observe. He moved further in, tapping the haft of his now glowing axe on the shelves as he went past.
He stopped... there it was, a hissing noise, still nothing on his HUD but a definite hissing.
"heerrreee monster" called Brimstone, goading the beast into attacking. He moved further into the storage room, the smell getting worse and the hissing getting louder. He could feel its heart beating, getting faster, ready to strike?
The monster lashed out of the shadows, attempting to grab Brimstone but Brimstone lifted his arm and the monster only managed to get a small purchase on his shield.
"Your a big bastard aren't you?" he said, as the two circled each other, any element of surprise lost. The monster pounced again, and this time Brimstone swung his axe in a round arc, its glowing head slashing into the monsters hardened scales. no serious damage, but the game was on. This time it was Brimstone who took the initiative, brining his axe down in a swing from above, the Myntor dodged, just taking a glancing blow, but knocking over a shelf, spilling what looked like electrical components on the floor.
"if you just cost me 1500 credits we are no longer friends".
The monster leaped, this time coming at an unexpected angle, its mouth clamping down on Brimstone's armoured fist, its sharp teeth grinding against the phrik alloy plates.
"Kark off you greedy mother" Shouted Brimstone as he squeezed his fist, firing a burst of blaster bolts down the monsters throat. It pulled away, ripping his glove off and taking a chunk of his arm. it started thrashing about, knocking over another shelf.
"Hold still you stupid creature" said Brimstone as he readied his axe. The monster was slowing down, the wound in its throat was probably not mortal but it had lost its edge. Brimstone almost felt sorry for it as he brought his axed down again hard, its hot blade cutting deeply into the neck of the monster. It let out one final screech and then was silent, its head hanging loose from is mostly severed neck.
Brimstone returned to the door where Alliser Roche was waiting,
"i hope we didnt break anything important? beasts back down there if you want to take a look" He pointed with his damaged arm, but it was clear the his flesh was writhing and knitting back together to repair the damage.
