Fiction:Galactic Eaters/2

Aftermath
Zazck opened his eyes thanks to the sound of a near explosion, fortunately, no Loron or explosion had eaten part of him, and so relaxed a little bit, the sound of a battle could be heard far away, just as if the fight was taken away from him, the Loron with the axe was a dead alien in front of him, Zazck looked for any snack in his bag, and for his luck, he found a big piece of aquatic meat.

After enjoying his meal, his mind turned to scan the surrounding, all was nothing but debris and corpses, as well as few medical teams that could be seen in the horizon tending the wounded, Zazck looked for any wounded body of his unit, after a few minutes he gave up, his hunger for eating something was bigger than anything.

"Hey!" he yelled to the medical teams, one of them seemed to be hearing, he repeated the yell, again and again.

"Use your radio soldier!" said a voice in his back pocket, he swore, as the noise made him jump.

"Acknowledged"

"You could have given our position to the Loron stupid, next time make sure you wear your radio or otherwise, I could put some charges in you for treason, ain't funny kid" said the medic talking to his radio, the two approached, Zazck could barely walk as a piece of metal flew over the battle and got his leg, "Now we can talk soldier, let me check that"

Zazck sat on the ground as the medic prepared his tools.

"What's the situation sir?"

"The battle grew and grew, this is a hell of a fight, ain't seen anything like this before, this Loron sure know how to give a war."

"They are too godamn many" Zazck commented, the medic nodded.

"Where was your platoon soldier"

"Let's just say we were a scout team when the battle came right into us"

"sunnova... and you are still alive?" said the medic, surprised, his accent wasn't familiar at all, "you are really lucky"

"What are the general orders medic?"

"I'm taking you to base sir"

"Very well, there is no time to waste then"

"Like you Zaz!" (as for human's "man") said the medic, "Can you stand up?"

"Yeah"

The two started walking away from the sound of battle, with their radios in all frequencies, Zazck and his new friend could hear anything happening.

Unit 34 move forward into the right flank, Unit 12 retreat, I repeat, retreat

500 casualties in unit 45 sir

''Bastards! they just keep coming!''

And other few more were heard, casualties, cursings, orders and a lot more.

"Hope this end soon" said Zazck.

"Yeah"

The two walked west, where their base resided, as the two suns of that system started to hide in the north.
