Tarran Smith"Shoot them. Goddamn this gives me bad memories of the sewers. James, here, have my Renfield, I don't need it anymore."
Give James my Renfield SMG and it's clip. Dual wield Chimeras and shoot the second.
You un-holster both of the little machine pistols and Start blowing holes in the mite at 3 o'clock. [Quickshot 4+1+1-1-1, 4+1+1-2-1] The pistols purr as they open up two-dozen ruptures in the mite's flesh. It keens as it dies.
Mite 2 has been killed.

Dominique WakemanCordyceps is in .hack, I can tell you that...
As they walked, Dom looked over at the new guy. "James, right? Here. You might need 'em if you get in trouble." She removed one of her chimera pistols, the Piru rifle, all associated ammo for the two guns, and the riot shield Tarran had given her to replace the one she'd lost. She passed them over, then turned back around, just in time to run into some strange creatures. Immediately she went for the Fuath, just in case these things were hostile. "What do you think, boss? Shoot or keep walking?" she asked, training her weapon on Mite 1.
Tarran Opens fire on the second mite and you hose down the first mite, [Quickshot 3+1-1] covering it in acid. The mite's skin sizzles and melts as the fat body folds into itself, then the legs melt too far to sustain the body and it collapses wheezily.
Mite 1 has been killed.

Taric SizierOpen fire with frank.
You loose a burst of slugs from your gauss rifle, [3+1+1-1] blasting away soft flesh and fungus on the mite behind the party. Like Tarran's it emits a soft wail as it dies.
Mite 4 has been killed

Trol GraneOpen fine with the kapre, silently screaming curses at the fungi on the inside
[Sanity 1, Insanity 2] You swing your rifle loose and then notice that the cuffs on your uniform don't quite match, you spend a few minutes adjusting them while everyone else is busy shooting mites.

James Evan"Thanks" James then hefted his Renfield, though if the enmies were hostile, he'd probably just end up charging them. He wasn't too good with guns.
You keep the SMG ready but the mites don't charge, they do something even more surprising.
---
Live MitesThe remaining mites scuttle away, becoming lost in the myriad of glowing fungi in seconds. This is too easy, something is up.
---
Dead MitesThe mite the Dom melted does nothing, but the other two explode. The sacs of fungus that riddle them engorging and then bursting, flinging sticky off blue onto all of you. [Intuition 5] Your gut tells you that this is a very bad thing indeed.
