Revving up her bike, Mica reacted the quickest in the team with her first instincts to protect the child. She raced ahead shooting across the bridge to come screaming to a halt in-between the Brodkil and the escaping child.
As Penny Wise had slowed the ATV as they approached the bridge, Savant acted in much the way Crazies do the world opver, and hurled herself from the vehicle, dancing across the bridge at high speed to attack the flank.
However, upon seeing the Brodkil up close, their visage and smell affected Savant in a most peculiar way. Rather than running away from the fearsome demonic creatures, Savant's fight or flight response had been switched permanently to fight. As adrenaline surged, Savant attacked with her chainsword, but found she had forgotten to use the chain end, slapping it futilely against the Brodkill's thigh.
The Brodkil were faster off the mark than the rest of the Losers.
The first looked at Savant, not impressed as he blocked her blow and dismissively swung at the Crazy with his claw, but only manages to scrape the paintwork.
The second Brodkil (whom has cybernetic implants in his legs) checked their run and hurtled wide around Mica, easily catching up to the child, but as he reached to grab him, his foot slipped in the mud and he grabbed thin air.
The third Brodkil (with a cybernetic arm) stopped and pulled out his rifle, taking aim at Mica and striking a heavy blow with the laser rifle.
The fourth Brodkil (no implants) ran to one side, pulling out its Vibrosword and then promptly vanished from sight
Penny, momentarily taken aback by Savant's actions, gunned the ATV across the bridge, avoiding crashing into the river as the bridge groaned in protest at the weight of the vehicle. She called to the child to get aboard.
The child looked behind at the Brodkil and needed no further encouragement to clamber inside the ATV for safety.
Kidemónas swooped down from on high landing between the ATV and the Brodkil, causing the Brodkil to back up slightly, His tail swept out at the Brodkil that tried to grab the child but it lacked conviction, bouncing off the Brodkil's armour.
