SWS - Displacer/Sonic

Kwas: Okay, people, you know the drill. Find Echo, kill Echo, take his sub. Move out!

(WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB)

Yana: Hmm, this Displacer handles much more smoothly than the old Coelecanths ever did.

(KSSHOW-CRACKLE)

Yana: Oh, who's shooting at me?

(WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB)

Yana: Oh boy. Ladies and gentlemen, looks like we've got lobsters.

(WHUMPH)

Princeps: Bwuh? Was that grenade a dud?

Yana: Actually, I think it was dumb luck. That, and your armor.

Princeps: Wow. I am NEVER complaining about how heavy this suit is, ever again! And as for YOU, Mister Lobster . . .

(KSSHOW-CRACKLE)

(KSSHOW-CRACKLE)

(CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH)

(WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB)

(CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK)

(THUD THUD THUD)

Yana: Blunt claws against heavy armor? Not particularly effective. Focused ultrasonics against Lobster Man organs, however . . . .

(KSSHOW-CRACKLE KSSHOW-CRACKLE)

Yana: VERY effective!

(WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB WHOOB)

Yana: Ladies and gentlemen, we have more lobsters upstairs in the sub.
