- One more psychic blast like that, and Lara knew she would fall unconscious, easy prey for the Deep One. It was time for Plan B. She swung herself around and aimed with her right hand for the crystal screw housing…
- Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam!
- WHAT?
- Explosions ripped across the crystal housing of the Archimedes’ screw. Great shards of crystal fell away.
- Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam!
- STOP! NO!
- The screw’s mounting shattered in a shower of water and crystal. Lara saw the screw begin to drop. It spun as it picked up speed.
- Lara looked down at one of the Deep God’s red eyes as it brought up a second tentacle to grab her. She used her free hand to wave bye-bye and slid down the tentacle.
- She kicked out and fell into the moon pool instead of the God’s mouth. The forest of tentacles turned for her. The redwood-sized screw plunged out of the shattered crystal housing, spinning like a rifled bullet. The screw struck Uhluhtc, tearing through its flesh even as its weight dragged the Deep One back to the depths it had risen from.
