Anything that horrendous should have made noise, a roar, a screetch, something. The creature was silent, save for the buzzing of its heavy wings.

"Engaging." Tanaka murmured, and squeezed down on the stick's trigger. The main guns of the Vertibird opened fired, spitting out a hundred rounds a second. They bounced off the creature's carrapace like pebbles. It shot straight at them, showing no sign of intending to slow upon impact, talons extended.

The jet banked hard, and those in the cabin were thrown in their seats, held down only by their buckles. The jet spun, headed west, and accelerated. The Dragon swerved, turning slowly through the air--it's large bulk was not very aerodynamic--and took off after them. It could fly in a straight line well enough, and was gaining.

"They had legends about that thing in the Cause." Cable said. Devil 2 was cruising safely away, and they could only watch as Devil 2 locked into a game of aerial tag with life or death stakes. "Lived in Bug Safari.  People who went in didn't come out.  And then the Outsiders spooked it by accident and it flew off into the mountains.  I didn't think I'd ever see it again."
