Lysander swore. "Shiiit." And started a figure eight pattern with his knife right against the creature's front half, frantically attempting to rip his way out before the thing disolved him.

From within, Lysander saw a now-bloody pipe jab through the flesh walls of the leech, missing his face by an inch.
The pipe moved, and the leech went flying away from him, sailing through the air and landing on its back in the alley.
It could not stop itself from releasing its digestive juice, and did so straight up into the air. The resulting downflow melted fire escapes and brick and concrete, but also the lower body of the Aberrant. It screamed a shrill death cry as it digested its own torso and arms, leaving its twitching head without any life support.
(How's THAT for a death scene?)

Szon returned the pipe to its home over his shoulder, saying very little as he examined Raleigh through his sunglasses.

Raleigh strolled out of the back end of the leech, looking a little less confident and casual than usual. "Well, that could have been a whole lot worse for us if you hadn't interceded. Our thanks." He nodded to Szon. However, the digestive juices seemed to have made his infection worse than it was already.

He nodded, then looked over the wounds. Then, he opened his mouth.
"Clean those wounds before they take you. I do not wish to kill you," His voice was calm, low, and smooth as he turned his back to the other person.

Gore and a bit of acid dripped down from the pipe onto Szon's jacket, sizzling and staining the material.
Indeed, Lysander felt worse than before, sicker and a bit woozy.
From the areas of injury, he could feel something prickle through the skin...

"He has been infected by the Aberrant. If he does not disinfect them, he will become one of them, and will have to be eliminated," Szon explained with a cold tone in his voice.

Raleigh sat down and pulled a bottle of antiseptic out of his bag. "We're...We've still got the will to fight. So, we will." He dripped antiseptic onto a cloth and started attempting to clean the injuries. Even though he already suspected that it was a little late.

Beneath his clothing, Raleigh's wounds tingled and continued to prickle. He felt a pang of multiple pains, like his bones were trying to spike through his epidermis.
Worse yet was the difficulty he was beginning to have forming coherent thoughts. Everything was steering back to KILL, EAT, SPAWN, KILL, EAT, SPAWN...

Szon twirled the five-seven by the trigger guard as he stopped it and aimed it at the other man's head. He could see by the look in his eyes that the infection was taking him.
"We can do this now or later."
