Considering they hadn't actually seen the attacker yet, the molotovs only hit the streets of the village.
Two more blaster shots rang out, Taking down another two of the LENNIES
English
-
Steven laughed harder, and was promptly shot. He toppled over.
-
"Dumbass" The thick Russian accent of a man said as he clambered out the window of one of the buildings and ducked behind another building He peaked out, firing off several more shots only to miss most of them and only take down another two LENNIES
-
Steve sat up, and promptly fried all thele nnies with a blast of light from his hand.
-
The Russian man slowly stepped out of cover, looking at the smoldering remains of the LENNIES "Well...." The man said something in Russian, presumably a curse
-
"Well... I haven't been shot in centuries..." Steve said, rubbing the bullet holes in his coat. "Ow."
-
"Who... Are... You?" The man's thick and heavy Russian accent spoke a bit of broken English, trying to say it correctly
-
"Name's Steven. You?" He replied, speaking flawless Russian.
-
"Ah, you speak! I am Dmitri. I hope you don't mind me asking, What are you?" The man, Dmitri, asked in fluent Russian as well
-
"Well, I'm... How do I explain this..." Steve tapped his chin. "I try to avoid the G-word, so I'll just say I'm a lot more than human." He grinned and tipped his dark green cap.
-
"That much is obvious. You came back from the dead. From a shot that would kill most people..."
-
"Whoa, I wouldn't say back from the dead. That bullet barely scratched me." He gestured to the hole in his coat, and sure enough the skin beneath was unhurt.
-
"It looked worse from where I stood..." Dmitri said, looking down at the grou
-
"Yeah, well..." He shrugged. "I hope nobody was hurt."
-
"Nobody was hurt, no. I believe we are all very much alive."
-
"Good. So, what were those things?"
-
"I do not know... But I have heard of an enemy by the name of 'Lennies' that match the description of what we fought."
-
"You mean like the memes?"
-
"Memes? You mean those ridiculous images with the captions? Yes, I believe they are indeed a meme."
-
"Huh... Deadly memes..." He seemd extremely amused by the thought. Suddenly, loud crying could be heard from nearby.
-
"What the hell was that?" Dmitri said, raising his rifle and rushing towards the screams
-
"Sounds like a child...." They rounded the corner to find a child crying over the body of a woman. "M-mommy? Wake up!"
-
"Shit...." Dmitri looked down at the ground sadly as he muttered a prayer in Russian
-
"This is wrong..." Steven fell to his knees beside the woman, almost in tears. "This is just... Wrong." He began to glow.
-
"Sometimes, it happens." Dmitri said sadly, looking to him
-
"No. This... Should not happen." He put a hand on the woman's for head and began to glow extremely bright. He and the woman were consumed in light, and then it faded. And she awoke.
