They were so close to the end -- and of course, now, he was mostly catching air, perhaps because the creature was so much smaller than it had been. Ever swung and missed and then missing again on the backswing. He rumbled something unfocused and annoyed, then shot a look back.

"I'm still fine, if either of you aren't. I can go a few more rounds. Assuming I can hit anything..."

s**t. Horace watched as both Ever and Melvin missed, swings going wide. It was becoming obvious that as a team they were at the end of their collective ropes. Ever was a little less exhausted than the two of them - the heal had done it's work. Melvin, though... Horace moved so that he was mostly between the rat thing and the other hunter. This mission was different from the one before, not better, maybe a little worse, but different. Horace exhaled slowly, feeling all the stings and bites from the rats flare angrily.

Hastily, he flung himself out there. Even if Ever was still good to go, he couldn't let the hunter do everything. His fist slammed into the mouth of a large rat, teeth cutting already raw knuckles. He grabbed another rat bodily, stepping on its tail and then pulling. It ripped free with a wet squelch and shrieked writhing bodily until he slammed it against the wall. Abruptly, he realized there was no more squeaking. It was dead. Horace winced and wiped rat goop on his shorts.

"Well." Gingerly, he picked up a piece of dead rat. He breathed heavily, feeling just a bit dizzy despite his intact shield. "Time to grab some samples, I guess."

2. A plastic baggie containing cigarette butts and bottlecaps. Shift the contents a bit and you will find that in the center of the litter is what appears to be a dead baby rat, hairless and pink--and still fresh.

With the rats cut up and severed from each other, the rest ran off into the dark shadows, the sounds of their skittering echoing around him. He wasn't even sure if anything was left considering the rats had ran off with their dead friends hanging off their tails.

Taking his flashlight out, he moved closer, looking around, before he found a small baggie. Kneeling, he reached into his pocket for a tissue and then picked up the baggie. Holding it up with the flashlight underneath, he shook it a few times. "Just looks like trash was holding that monster together."

And he shook it one more time and saw the dead rat.

"Ugh. Well....I guess that's a sample." he said, holding the baggie out. At least it was sealed.

For a moment, Ever just blinked at him -- unsure why Melvin was holding out the bag instead of just putting it in a pocket or something -- before deciding that he was meant to at least take it and have a look. And so he plucked the bag from Melvin's fingers and tipped it to have a good look at the little hairless creature inside.

It made him frown, just a bit.

"This just looks like a regular rat, to me...." but it couldn't hurt to take it back, all the same. He shrugged, then looked up at the pair of them again, offering the baggy to anyone who wanted to take it.

"Is it enough to take back, do you think? Are we done?"

Horace squinted. Was that blood on his glasses....? Yes, yes it was. And since the fear creatures dissipated, that meant it was likely his. Horace was very good at bleeding. Sighing, he pulled off the elastic band round the back of his glasses and fished out a cleaning cloth. He felt disgusting and his raw knuckles hurt. Still, he dutifully peered at the baggie Melvin held out, although he did not take it.

Horace took the bag gingerly from Ever and tucked it into his bag next to the other bag - the one full of food. "Yeah, I think that and the stuff from the backpack and the pictures we got will work. Plus, I need about five showers, okay." Horace grimaced and fished the pendant out of a side-pocket of his bag.

"Let's go home."

"Just five? I need about 20 rabies shots." He said, glad that someone had taken the baggie off of him.

Following along, he headed back to the portal.
