Re: P1 Prime: The Berlin Air Raid
The undead surrounding Golem fall backwards, limp as puppets with cut strings. They fall backwards, creating an impromptu phalanx against the rest of them. They bump and struggle to get at him, but he has a moment to collect himself.
Devil Dog blasts the undead creatures with a grenade. This plan works too well. The damaged wall of one of the adjacent buildings collapses inward. The second floor begins to fall. Bricks and debris shower down on the undead and the marine alike.
Frank finds himself trapped under piles of masonry. He struggles to free himself. The zombies nearest to him struggle and stumble over the masonry, struggling to get to him.
Amber tries to summon up the power that resides in the ring, and finds it spent. She tries to push her own power through it, but it isn't enough. She overburdens her own power of flight, and suddenly finds herself without levitation. Kicking her legs and grasping at nothing in involuntary desperation, Amber begins to fall.
Suddenly there is a boom. The cannon fires, creating a tremendous plume of smoke. It rolls back, crushing the skeleton that had lit the fuse. The others scramble to pull it back into position.
The cannonball whips through the air, almost too fast to see. It slams into the wall of the distant palace, knocking a hole in the reinforced structure. It hardly seems to make more than a cosmetic difference at first. Then it explodes inside.
