Dubstep and Doubletaps (Patreon)

The floor in front of Vinyl erupted with black ichor; bursting from it a Flayer threw itself at the unicorn mare. Vinyl's punched her SIG P228 at the monster as she fired off a quick double tap. The horror screamed as the unstable mage crystals in the 9mm projectiles detonated within it. As quickly as it had emerged its lifeless body fell back into the ichor and vanished.
While continuing to scan the room the mare resumed loading her AR carbine. Without taking her eyes off the sights of her pistol she levitated a 30rd magazine from her gear and slammed it into magazine well.
"Vinyl. Vinyl. Octavia here!" Said the voice in the white mare's headset. Her voice was scratchy from all the magical interference "What is your status?"
"Running low on everything but the enemy!" Said the mare as she transition back to her carbine.
Doing a quick mental inventory she spoke into the microphone on her headset. "I've got 2 mags left for my carbine and..." She levitated the mag out of her P228. "And 1 and half mags for my 9mm. Also my wards are almost shot! At this rate I'll be down to my horn and punch daggers!"
The very refined voice of Octavia spoke again. "Understood. I am moving toward the cafeteria. Like you I have been unable to link up with my fellow squad members. Let's meet there and press forward."
Vinyl shrugged. "I don't have a better plan. Meet you there!"
