The creature laid dead infront of Megaera. She rolled it over on its belly to see if the bullet got through, but the carapace seemed intact.
"Might need to use armor piercing rounds to punish these things more effectively..."
She holstered her handgun and noticed that her wound lost a moderate amount of blood, but nothing life threatening. The trees were quiet again and Meg didn't bother checking her scanner anymore. The dead creature infront of her was not bigger than a moderate sized dog and the tail was twice its lenght. Megaera decided to take it with her for further study back at base camp and carried it with her by the tail. It was surprisingly lightweight. The tail of the other creature was left behind.
