When Monsters Attack in Memphis!
The citizens of Memphis, TN were trying to stay cool on a hot summer's day. The temperature reached 90 degrees with about 85% humidity. It was a hot sticky day and the citizens sought relief from the heat wherever they could. Some sought it in the air conditioned buildings while other sought it in water.

Tourists to the city took in the local sights. Some wandered through Graceland and others walked along Beale Street in the heat. Some took a cruise on the Tunica Queen Riverboat. These poor unfortunate souls would be the first to discover the impending doom that was about to strike the city.

The waters of the mighty Mississippi churned and foamed formed. A few moments later a shape emerged from the muddy waters. The riverboat was tossed about and slowly the monster emerged from the water and climbed up the east bank. It slowly pulled itself up to its full 300' height and looked at the city below. It let out a mighty roar and started destroying buildings.

	"Let me and James out," Sammy said. "We can do more on the ground while you pilot the Quinjet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Getting in close to engage gets Iason swatted. He craters into the ground, but demonstrates he's alright by firing a blast of cosmic energy at one leg. "We need some kind of plan. Our biggest guns can affect this thing, but only a little. Its not the brightest, but its not a complete idiot either." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Can it be lured somewhere?" Nightingale asks, reforming on the ground and leaping in the path of the beast to pull someone from their stalled car and out of the way before Grugulus crushed it with his heel. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I was working on that before people arrived, with limited success. I don't think this thing is of animal intelligence - it swatted at me, but kept heading inland. It knows what its doing, we just need to stop it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grugulus roared as he lumbered through the city. He swiped at a building which happened to be the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Glass and concrete went flying through the air. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Damnit..." Iason rocketed to the site, disintegrating some of the debris with heat beams before it could hit the ground and intercepting a large chunk of concrete. Holding the chunk in front of himself, he charged at Grugulus' chin, smashing the concrete over his face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We need to use more force," Anya said as she paused for a moment and looked around. "And aim for it's weaker spots, like its eyes." Anya held both arms out and fired a few mini-missiles at the thing's face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni brought the quinjet low to the ground, opening the side hatch as she kept it hovering. "All ashore that's going ashore..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye aye, captain," James said as he rushed out of the quinjet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"As you say, Anya, let's take this thing down." he calls, moving opposite her, since his sapping maneuver didn't even get its notice. He opens fire on its face as well.

Grugulus, being an undersea creature, has much more durable eyes than most surface things, just as designed to withstand pressure and the vagaries of the undersea environment as the rest of him, but at least it seems to get his attention.

	Sammy followed James out, and stopped to look up. And up some more. A word her father would have frowned at escaped her. (Reply to this)(Parent)
