With the 5 rounds he has left, Andrew sprays randomly at the wave of Piranha pushing them back. His shots just seem to get absorbed into the mass of fish.

Vlad stands and races to the one in front of him. His eyes widen in shock and he fires at Vlad. Vlad drops and skids between his legs just as he hears gunshots from behind him as well. He stands after his slide and looks over his shoulder - the two Guerillas shot each other to death. The rest of the men - all three of them - are frantically rubbing and blinking their eyes or shaking their heads. Vlad jogs to the edge of the Ridge and drops down onto the slope, surfing his way to the bottom.

Advere realizes that his swarm of Army Ants has reached the swamp, and he commands the swarm to attack the piranha with his mental link. A few seconds later, the ants burst into the clearing from the same direction that the Blurs entered from- they're huge, each ant measuring about 30cm* in length and baring venom-dripping fangs. Their increased size means they can move almost as fast as the piranha, and the insects rally and funnel towards the huge cloud of fish. The piranha don't seem to notice, but the ants soon show just how much they can do- groups of about twenty ants crouch down close together and then simultaneously tackle individual piranhas, quickly stabbing them all over with both bites and stings. The piranha exhibit an incredible tolerance to pain, but it only takes seconds for a fish to give in and be entirely consumed with venomous strikes. The ants are far outnumbered, though, and plenty of piranha slip past the ambush groups, which collectively take out about 200 fish in one go- not a number to sneeze at.

Scanning the battlefield for an agonizing minute, Damien doesn't find any other scouts. He's about to give up and go search the body of the fallen Ban Ali tribesman, when suddenly, a small flash of light catches his eye. Huh? With almost no time to react, Damien ducks down and covers his head as an obsidian knife plunges into the branch that his head had been next to a moment ago. "Gotcha now, you bastard!" By the time he pops back up, the tribesman is almost out of Damien's field of view, but he sees the man trying to run back towards the river, near the treeline. He fires the M107 once, twice, and then the third time's the charm- the bullet smashes open the man's kneecap. "ARGHHH!" His scream of agony is clearly audible throughout the battlefield. Damien knows he won't be going anywhere- the huge bullet would have created a massive pressure wave when it impacted his leg, causing hydrostatic shock and essentially rupturing every muscle and tissue strand within an area the size of a basketball. He swings down from the tree- the piranha are coming at the group from the right, and the second downed tribesman is at the very outer rim of the swamp- behind the river. Oh boy, this will be fun.

"More? D:" Fred pulls out his upgraded Uzi and opens fire on the advancing horde, sending out bursts of light that sear through the fish.

"FIRE BOMBS FOR THE WIN!" David puts in his final disc of Incendiary Grenades and launches the pair at the huge swarm of fish, aiming high with the intention of hitting the heart of the swarm and not just the meatshields up front. He's very successful in this aspect: The grenades actually land in the river. Thankfully, one of them hits a piranha and detonates in mid-air, and the entire area is coated in flames, sending many a fish to a fiery death. The stubborn napalm refuses to be drenched by the water, but the vegetation around it is so moist that nothing catches fire except the fish which happen to move over the flaming fluid.

"OH GOD FISH EVERYWHERE, WAT DO" Blue Demon begins sprinting like a madwoman towards the safety of the group by the treeline, and turns around to fire a small plasma fireball when she trips backwards over a heap of burned piranha bodies. "FFFF-" A small group of piranha charge at the downed Demon, but Die Angelus takes care of them with a massive swipe of her flaming chains. "Thanks." Blue gets back up and finishes her shift over to the Blur group.

Die Angelus generates two more chains, but instead of these chains whipping the fish out of their own will, they bind around her wrists, and she uses them like whips, sending their flaming ends through any fish that ventures too close. Ahead of her, Blue Demon turns to fire an attack at the swarm, but trips backward and is almost besieged by a small cluster of piranha. Die Angelus cuts through the would-be killers in a heartbeat, smashing them wide open. "Thanks." Die gives a bit of a nod and continues her murderous streak.
