[ It seems like the bullets are doing little more than annoying the monster, and it's a good thing that it's so slow. The idea clearly was to draw them close enough that it could devour them in one gulp, as it's done to others. There's not just a shoe, but bits of flesh and skin caught between its crowded teeth. Talk about nightmare fuel. ]
You wouldn't want to eat any of these things, believe me.
[ Bucky had obviously been speaking facetiously, but Jack knows for a fact what might happen if someone were to eat the tainted meat. Monster parts got turned into some sort of rage-inducing drug before, right? It was before his time here, but he'd read about it all the same.
Using his power might be the best option they have here, short of outrunning it. Jack doesn't like the idea of leaving it alive to ensnare someone a little less suspicious than the two of them, though. He's not sure if his power will work again in such quick succession, but he's willing to give it a try. ]
Stop in place. [ Once again, his chest lights up. The angler fish does as it's ordered. ] Turn around. [ That works too, even if it takes a good ten seconds for it to slowly turn its back to them.
Jack shoots a glance at Bucky. ] What about you? Got any tricks up your sleeve?
[ Something a little more destructive, hopefully. ]
