Beast Wars Depth Charge Novels & Stories

I ducked behind a charred boulder, panting, trying to gather my bearings. A massive, horned beast—the size of a war elephant—charged directly at me, its hooves tearing the earth apart. I fired the shotgun point-blank. The blast staggered it, but its momentum carried it forward. I rolled to the side, barely avoiding a stomp that would have flattened me like a pancake. Claws raked at my shoulder, ripping the fabric of my suit, and I slashed blindly with the laser pistol, hitting something, hearing it screech and fall back. Adrenaline surged; fear and fury mixed into a sharp edge that kept me moving, kept me alive.

Black ops strike invisible—plasma blades igniting blue, severing limbs in silent, precise arcs, bloodless cuts cauterized instant. A guardian beast—submarine-sized, plated in void-crystal—charges from side tunnel, maw yawning gravity vortex. Remy intercepts—coyote-gold board spinning wild, claws rending underbelly in golden streaks, ichor spraying black fountains that hiss on ice. **Remy (growling fierce over comms):** “Come on, you ugly bastard!” Deeper—tunnel narrowing, pressure building. The heart chamber—cavern vast as a subterranean cathedral, core pulsing black-red like a dying star, Matriarch coiled around it protective.

Water dripped down his chest, each drop tracing the lines of carved muscle that looked like someone sculpted him from stone. Broad shoulders. Deep-cut abs. A V-line that should’ve been illegal. My mouth literally fell open. Xavier leaned lazily against the doorframe, arms crossed, towel tightening around his waist. A slow, sinful smirk curved his lips. “Looking for me, sweetheart?”

The next moment, more than twenty of the beast mechs pulled out their weapons. These weapons were pretty advanced. They weren't rifles or machine guns, not even freeze guns or heat guns. They were beam guns. Beam guns have extremely strong penetrating power, and it's like firing a laser. There's no need to fire one shot at a time, just hold the trigger down and the beam will keep blasting continuously. They were like the Death Laser, but the enhanced version. Not in terms of power, of course, but duration. "Windfall, be careful, those things actually pack a punch."

His hands clamped around my shoulders, holding me in place. When I dragged my gaze upward, my breath caught in my throat. His eyes were glowing again—that eerie, feral luminescence that spoke of the madness lurking beneath his skin. His beast was rising again. But I wasn't afraid this time. "What did you just say?" His words came out as a growl. I met his predatory gaze without flinching, lifting my chin in defiance even as my heart hammered against my ribs. "You heard me." He let out a deafening roar as dark fur rippled across his jaw and throat, spreading over his shoulders in a wave of black that shimmered beneath the moonlight.

But before the cold vacuum could swallow my lungs or freeze my daughter’s pulse, Dante lunged forward into the dark sea, his three-ton industrial steel chassis slicing through the sub-surface current like a torpedo of pure, unyielding marrow-energy. His massive iron claws clamped directly onto the intake grates of the cartel dreadnought, the violet current in his veins exploding into a blinding underwater aura that turned the dark sea into a boiling, royal-purple vortex. Against my chest, my daughter let out a sharp, piercing cry—a single, multi-layered note that traveled straight through the water, hitting the dreadnought’s titanium hull plates with the force of a localized seismic strike.

*Damian* “Release the Kaiju!” The warden shouts. I readied myself for one hell of a fight as a gigantic gate opened. The prisoners stayed silent. At first, nothing seemed to move in the darkness or even made a sound. But I spoke too soon when one of this thing’s footsteps felt like an earthquake. Another footstep cracks the ground all around me as the monster steps out of the darkness. It had a lizard-like body with bat wings, spines out of its back, large hands, saber tooth tiger fangs, long claws on its hands and feet, and three heads! It lets out a massive roar that deafens me for a couple minutes. The prisoners cheered as the roar excited them. Please God let me live to see the rest of t

“Today, I’ll make this audacious little creature pay dearly.” “You seem overly confident,” Yukha chuckled. “He’s the Chosen One, can you handle him?” At this, the Zenithal Roc Matron choked up. The title of the Chosen One might not mean much to James, but it was a powerful deterrent to these supreme top-tier powerhouses. The next moment, a thunderous explosion came from tens of thousands of light-years away, causing countless stars to be instantly destroyed under the explosion’s spread. Yukha looked up and saw James facing the frenzy of spirit beast attacks. He unleashed his Supernatural Powers, activating the slaughter mode of the Primitive Marciais Combat Form.

One of the blows smashed into the magma near him, causing some to skitter up and splashed on his arm, scalding him so badly that he nearly dropped the Beacon. Then came the rest of the deluge of destructive missiles. Panicking, Orlov quickly channeled his powers and activated the Beacon again, which began to glow brightly like a star. Woosh! A burst of vividly-red flames sprayed out its sprout and disintegrated the hailstorm of fist-like projectiles into nothingness. Like vengeful beasts, the flames went on and surged at Chu Xun. Turning into a flash of light, Chu Xun vanished and the flames hit where he was standing before, turning the rock into more molten liquid.

My eyes looking down, focusing on the bubbles floating on the surface of the water. He places his hand under my chin and tips my head up to look at him. I could forever be lost in his deep blue eyes. They look like a vast, endless ocean that is determined to pull me in and drown me. “It would seem that fate wanted to bring two lost souls together tonight.” He whispers, his lips only at most an inch from mine. He lets go of my chin and places his hands on my bottom, sliding me so my naked body is pressed against him and we are skin to skin. I feel his throbbing member pressed against me and my core begins to ache. I want him to fill me up, taking me on wave after wave of ecstasy until we coll
