Darrell yells to the tommy gun toting woman.

"I knew there was someone else fighting against the evil in this Godforsaken town." As she fires Darrell cheers. "Drill the lizard!"

He rushes at Yig with an axe, screaming in terror, and swings the weapon: the axe bites into Yig's tail.

Yig tries to stamp on Darrell, who nimbly ducks away.

"You'll have to do better than that!"

Carolyn feels as though a sudden weight has been lifted from her shoulders. Squaring them, she reloads her Thompson and prepares to unleash hell.

Darnell sees the woman physically grow in stature and hope fills his heart.

Again he swings the axe--a true haymaker--but the blade whisks over Yig's head; the axe thumps into the ground, only a fraction of an inch from his T-bar shoe.

Carolyn empties another drum of .45 bullets into Yig, and this time most of them connect! The monstrosity reels from the onslaught and starts to weaken, but it is still far from defeated.

Yig's forked tongue whips against the side of Darrell's face, his fedora and an ear spin away from his head with a spray of blood.

Carolyn places a comforting hand on Darrel's shoulder and his mental torment is relieved.

"Until that monster snaps my spine I shall never give up, never."

Darrell launches himself towards Yig--in a rage fuelled by the pain of his sliced off ear--and hews with the axe at Yig.

Darrell swings the axe once again, but misses pathetically--probably due to the tears in his eyes.

Yig's claw rakes Darrell's leg, shredding the fabric of his pants and skinning a shin. Darrell spits.

"You're going down!"
