The respective crews of Devil 1 and Devil 2 boarded their aircraft. The Vertibirds were refueled, and all excess weight was dumped.

Those in Devil 1 were buckled in tight, given helmets with oxygen tubes connected to tanks of oxygen. Of that jet, Tanaka was at the helm, and they took off.

Devil 2 rose into the air shortly after, those in its cabin in much poorer physical condition.

The two jets shot off with twin screams, over the forest and mountains of Oregon, towards the city. Halfway across the state of Washington, they encountered the unidentified vehicle.

It was not a vehicle.

Perched on a mountain top, was the largest animal any of them had ever seen. In Duncan's case, it was his second time seeing it.

It's body was anthropodic, bublous, and long, the abdomen easily the size of two semi-trucks. It's thorax was the size of a single semi-truck (That's three in total now!) and where the thorax met the abdomen there was a series of massive, insectoid legs, each the size of flag-posts. Situated at the front of the thorax was it's mouth, a terrifying, frothing mess of mandibles, and sitting at the top of the thorax were two gigantic talons, each the size easily several times the size of a human being. Between the talons were it's eyes and antennae, and sitting by those were it's wings. It was munching on what appeared to be a Brahmin, tossing the animal limp corpse about between its mandibles as it separated meat from bone. It noticed the Vertibirds, and looked up in their direction, pointed legs scuttling over the mountain as they found new purchase. The wings began to flap, rapidly, like a bees.



"That's not a plane." Cable murmured, peering out the window.

"No it is not." Priors agreed, and then into his radio. "Breaking off. Good luck, Captain."

Devil 2 dropped away, heading down towards the mountains.

"10-4, Priors." Tanaka replied, and then cut communication. She pressed down on the control stick, and the Vertibird began to rapidly accelerate towards the creature. The cabin started to shake, and those inside, started to shake.
