The third day was totally different. It provided another surprise for me as to the Sarge's choice of items for me to buy. We were in our usual order when a creature we hadn't seen before emerged in front of me. I stopped while Shirley and Kyle stopped just behind me. I began to circle around the strange creature when it advanced on us. We were already spread out because I was leading us around the creature. We all fired with our stinger rifles and were astounded to see that the weapons had no effect on the creature. It just shrugged off the electrical bolts that we shot at it. Then it leaped at us and landed on Kyle. He was yelling from the pain of the electrical shocks that it gave him and then passed out. Shirley pulled her knife and slashed at it only to be shocked when she came into contact with it. For a moment, I wondered what to attack the creature with when I remembered the antique projectile weapon I carried, reached under my shoulder pack, and drew the weapon from the hidden holster.
