The old story revived
I have finally made a new chapter to my story. If you wish to read all 17 chapters there available Here.

Part 17: About damn time
Fucking 2 hours... 2 hours, and I can feel her presence ever since I got here. Im not sure if shes laughing at me, or trying to draw me out. I didnt know which it was, but I did know that the 2 man "Security Element team" they put down here with me, wouldnt shut up. "cannon fodder" was the more correct term for those 2, even though they seemed content enough with having me around, I'm still yet to understand that. What I did know was that she was sitting somewhere nearby watching me, Colonel Hardbrook was sitting in a nearby 5 story building with an elite sniper team, the APC and armored assets had left, there were 2 heavy weapons teams on the flanks of the park, and 2 handpicked morons to keep me company.
Eventually though, she made her move. As I was laying on my back looking up between the tree canopies, my seren view of the clouds was interupted by a various multitude of rapiers coming up from the buildings just below my view. It was also about that time that xm208 shots rung out from the building behind me. As I raised up to look at my "Security Team" I saw them firing franticly into the buildings the rapiers had come from. Which were now spewing out ravagers, demons, and about 6 lords.
AT5 bazooka rounds, EG3 PBC bolts, and M347 SAW bursts all came thundering out of the flanks onto the hordes of creatures barreling towards us. At this time, I was using my XM208 to reshape incoming creatures as I simultaniously scanned for "her."
About the time I saw her she was practically gliding out of a building, as if she needed to look graceful for something. Her minions were pretty much on top of us, a ravager had one of the 2 security personnel impaled on its left arm, and the other security personnel was being hauled off by a rapier. Fireballs and lord plasmids had already wrecked the heavy weapon teams buildings, and ravagers were blasting through the wreckage to kill any survivors.
I on the other hand was being Ignored, that is but with the exception of the demon mother. Who was still gliding at me.
I would have fired at her with the XM208, but she had already shown that wouldnt work, because she had a small possy of creatures who were acting as shields from sniper fire, and they were being rather effective. So I reattached my XM208 to my back, hit the release on my RXBlade, and swung it around back into position. A few dozen more creatures barreled past me after the sniper team as I insured my whip, and secondary weapons were still attached correctly, and ready to go. I glanced back towards the building to see Rapiers being gunned down as they tried to make it through the window, a number of ravagers climbing up the walls, and a Lords head vanish as a XM208 round past through it. They were doing alright. I turned around to see "her" about 20 meters from me where she decided to stop and dispatch her possy as reinforcements on the high rise attack. I steadied myself and yelled out to her over the gun fire, and explosions. "About damn time."

Part 18: Catalyst
I stared in horror, confusion, anger, and relief as the lord ran down the road stopped looked back then followed after the demon mother. I looked up at the skyscraper in the distance knowing what I must do.
*minutes before* She smiled cynically as I charged her position, arms wide and angled behind me, so at any moments notice I could swing either arm with full force in an attack. Meters from her I jumped rolled to my right swung my left arm and clutched my fist releasing the whip which skimmed the ground and whipped up at her just in time for her to 'phase' just out of its attack path. I was then hit immediately with the whip of a tentacle on my side smashing me down onto the ground instead of my planned far more comfortable roll.
She circled around casually as I raised up still ready to fight. Laughing she raised her arms as I prepped for my next attack, what looked like fire burned from her hands, confused I stopped preparing to defend myself. She raised her hands above her head and manifested a pluthera of fireballs. Before they could hit me I dodged just outside the blast range, only to barely intercept a claw with my RXblade. She slammed 4 tentacles into the ground around me and leaned in to say. "Release the monster, show me your strength!"
A loud crack redirected my attention as I realized she had deflected a XM208 round that was aimed at me with her other 2 tentacles. She turned her head slowly and the cupped me with the 4 surrounding tentacles throwing me towards the building she came from as she rushed into the building the elites were in.
I skimmed onto the ground hard making me roll, bounce, hit the ground again and then come to an abrupt stop on a nearby rubbled building. I stood up and stared in horror as I saw her leaping up into the building where Colonel Hardbrook was. I sprinted as fast as I could make myself go towards the building as the nearby creatures all went from directed attack mode to scatter and evade shooting off in every direction.
I reached Colonel hardbrook to find him laying on the ground bleeding and the demon mother with a tentacle impaled in his right leg. I charged her, she evaded right caught me again with her tentacles pointed to the highest skyscraper in the distance, and said "Meet me there, my vestra meum praenuntius." She released me and dropped out of a large hole in the wall that opened up to the outside city. I looked back at Colonel Hardbrook to see him gasping for air and clutching his wound. Which wasn't a creature wound, but a gunshot wound. "It was Snow, dumb ass, not her." he said as he lye there changing "He thought I was too much of a liability, he might be right though, because I brought you here not to help kill her, but to make a decision."
I sat there in silence, I didn't know what to do, because I was trained to kill those infected, but I was still frozen, and couldn't end him. His eyes weren't asking to be ended though, it was almost like he was in-tune with something that I wouldn't understand until later. He released his wound and tensed up as his body began to deform, and change. He began to scream, I turned unable to kill my friend, but I also couldn't watch him change. I heard his screaming voice change from a human in agony to a beast roaring in revele of his strength.
I turned to see a lord, I clutched my RXblade not sure what to expect. He kind of bowed his head, paused and then jumped out the hole in the wall in the same direction the demon mother ran off in. As he ran off is when I started to blur the line of what was humanly sane, and what was considered insanity to many.
