[ WP ] All the animals in the world , except humans , suddenly gain comic book style super powers .

`` What have we got?'' I yelled over the roar of the helicopter blades. 
 
 The response that crackled over my earpiece was panicked, and distant explosions and the rattle of gunfire could be heard in the background. 
 
 `` Sir, a primate, [ blaster 8 ] ( http: //worm.wikia.com/wiki/Power_Classifications ), seems to be heat based. A horse, brute 4 and mover 6, made of some kind of metal... oh god... its so fast! Its charging through our fortifications like they're nothing!'' 
 
 The sound of screams were heard through the communications before they abruptly cut out. I shared an uneasy glance with my fellow passengers. 
 
 `` Calm down soldier. Is there anything else?'' 
 
 `` Uh.. yes sir,'' He panted, now clearly running somewhere. 
 `` A... A pigeon sir, shaker 5 I think. Telekinetic. Its blocking most of our attacks sir, and defending the others.'' 
 I jolted, alarmed. 
 
 `` Defending the others? Soldier, you make it sound like they're organised.'' 
 
 `` They are sir,'' He gasped, and my earpiece was momentarily filled with the static clouded roar of an explosion, much closer than before. `` Theres one more, I think the pigeon is floating it along. A Dolphin, master 4 probably, and a thinker sir, at least a 12.'' 
 
 I felt my blood freeze and saw the expressions of shock on the others in the helicopter. 
 
 `` Thinker 12?'' I said hoarsely. `` Soldier, confirm you said thinker 12?'' 
 
 `` Affirmative, it has to be the one in charge, its organising or controlling or.. or doing something to the others telepathically. Its smart sir. Tactical.'' 
 This was bad. Our one advantage against the animals was that we were smarter than they were. Since animal kind started gaining these monstrous superpowers it had mainly just caused chaos, but we were still hanging on to our dominance in the world. But if one of them was smart enough be sapient, smarter maybe even then us... 
 
 `` How long till a K9 unit can get there?'' I snapped to the officer beside me. 
 
 `` I'm not sure sir, the closest one is still wrapped up with the incident at the White House.'' 
 
 I swore violently, and then roared `` Alright men, we're almost there. Prepare for-'' Then suddenly light and heat flared in my eyes and chaos erupted in my senses as I was flung from my seat, my harness the only thing that saved my life as the world spun violently around me in a whirl of metal and fire and flesh before I felt the shock of an impact, and then there was only blackness. 
 
 I awoke to the feeling of a foreign presence in my mind. 
 
 *Satisfaction. * 
 
 I could feel my arm was broken, the pain twisting like a knife through my confusion. The heat of flames flickered against my face. More disturbingly I could n't feel anything below my waist. Forcing my eyes open, I took the flaming ruins of my helicopter in front of me, several smoldering corpses slumped in the remains of their seat and with a distant horror saw a twisted gnarl of metal jutting out my torso. 
 
 Painfully, I managed to turn my head, only to let out a gasp. Standing nearby were the animals described to me; the monkey, the horse with the pigeon perched on its burnished head and the dolphin floating eerily above a lawn littered with corpses, gazing at the burning wreckage of the Pentagon. 
 
 At my gasp they Dolphin twisted in the air and met my eyes with its own dark gaze, and I felt the foreign pressure inside my mind increase tenfold. Fear gripped me in a chokehold and I scrambled trying to pull myself free, away, only succeeding in tearing the shrapnel in the stomach before slumping weakly onto the ground. 
 
 The surreal group made their way over to me, and the dolphin turned to the monkey, the chimpanzee. *Intent. Purpose. Removal. * 
 The chimpanzee wandered over to me, and bared its teeth in a grin, wide and vicious. It raised its palm and I could see them glow with energy. 
 
 *Satisfaction. *
