[ At this rate, they only need a little more to finish it off. There's blood and dark ichor seeping everywhere from the creature, splattering onto the ground and forming stretches of horrific mud. Ryo lifts his rifle once more so he can put another bullet in its head, and finds that his arm isn't moving as easily anymore. The bogeyman had injured it pretty badly earlier but he ignored the pain and kept using it; maybe he inadvertently caused nerve or muscle damage by doing so.
Thankfully, it's his non-firing arm, but it's still bad and he can't use it to steady his weapon anymore. He bites his lip, tries to force his arm to work properly—and that's when something lurking in the recesses of his mind decides to lend a hand. Suddenly, there's a heavy thickness in the air that wasn't there before, a buildup of static electricity that makes the hairs on Ryo's neck stand.
There's a metallic taste at the tip of his tongue and he knows exactly what's about to happen. He's read about this, about survivors of lightning strikes saying they experienced a sour or metallic taste shortly before they were struck. ]
Watch ou— [ He doesn't even get to warn them before the bolt of lightning strikes the bogeyman with a deafening crack and a blinding flash of light. The creature roars, convulsing violently as the electricity audibly courses through its injured body. It's still alive somehow, clinging to life by a mere thread, but it's unlikely that it will be able to last through the next attack. ]
