Me: I don't know.


 * I look at Kit and grab her as I check her wound.

Me: Geez, it looks like you took one in the back.


 * I check the man's gun and eject its magazine. I check one of its bullets. A .454 caliber or Casull. I notice something odd about each bullet.

Me: Not only are they high explosive, they are also silver tipped. Now this is just strange.


 * The Pelican lands and drops its troop bay. Colonel Downs Cassins steps off.

Cassins: Captain, you ok?

Me: For the moment. Kit's hurt and we need to get her to the Hansgraf.


 * The man's body melts away into a poll of blood. The blood begins moving together. My eyes widen.

Me: We need to go now!


 * Cassins and I carry Kit onboard the Pelican just as the man in red's form appears from the column of blood. His eyes are fierce red as he grins.

Man: Again, good try, human. I may consider you a man, at last.


 * I send one of his own .454 rounds at him. It tears part of his face off. The door of the Pelican begins to close as his face regenerates. I feel the Pelican take off, but, suddenly, one of his hands phases through the floor, grabbing my right ankle. He climbs through the floor, using my leg as a ladder. I kick him off and throw him into the rear bulkhead of the Pelican. I feel the Pelican leave Earth's atmosphere. I grab an SR-99 sniper rifle and use as a bat against the man's face. He knocks the gun out of my hands and pins me to the floor. His wickedly long tongue licks blood off of my visor.

Man: A pitty, you would have made an excellent vampire.


 * He bites into my neck again as he manages to puncture the gel layer around my lower left neck. One of his fangs scrapes my skin, drawing blood. Cassins moves in and beats him in the face with the butt of his MA5D assault rifle. The man gets off me and charges Cassins. I grab his ankle and trip him on to the floor.
