In Their Own Story

The air is thick with dust and the smell of ozone. Duke steps through the stone archway, his boots echoing on the cracked marble floor. A Pig Cop snorts from the shadows, and Duke grins, racking his shotgun. 'Time to clean house,' he mutters. The temple's walls are lined with alien glyphs that pulse with a sickly green light. A hostage screams from somewhere deeper inside. Duke moves forward, past a pool of toxic slime, and kicks open a heavy door. The room beyond is filled with cultists chanting in a guttural tongue. Duke pulls the trigger, and the chanting stops, replaced by the wet thud of bodies hitting stone.
