Huzzah! Altl stabbed through the bed, leaving a ragged tear through the mattress. However, his blade clunked hard into the wooden baseboard, and he struggled for a moment to wrench it free as it stuck slightly. He whirled, searching for any signs of the creature, but all remained quiet and still, and nothing emerged from beneath the shadows of the bedcovers...Heheh... www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CL2hetqpfg

/* I think I vomited a little, in my mouth.... */
In a moment of epiphany Altl decided he would return to the kitchen. Embarking out of the room he made his way down the hallway turned and went down the old wooden stair case. Stepping through the ruin of Balak's house he soon found himself back in the kitchen amidst the corpses of the slain ants. Steppling deeper into the room Altl found the room had several cabinets.
"Aha!" Said Altl, he approached one of the lower cabinets and began searching it frantically. "He has to have a bug bomb or some Raid in one of these..."

Altl's epiphany turned to profound dismay when he opened the cabinets under the sink. Anything that would constitute something one would expect to see in a kitchen was gone, either missing entirely or destroyed beyond recognition. The ragged ends of the plumbing dripped a bit of water down a large hole that stretched down into the shadows, masking anything below in darkness. The hole was easily wide enough to fit a man through, possibly even two abreast, though it would be tight.
Unsure what to make of it, Altl checked the other cabinets... And found similar situations. The pantry shelves had all been torn away, leaving splinters of wood hanging from the edges of the closet where the fixtures had held strongly enough before breaking. The only cabinets where the gaping holes and destruction were not present was a small set above the kitchen counter, but these merely contained glasses and dishes, and not any of the hoped-for home care supplies.

Jaded by the lack of Bug Bombs Altl returned to the room and started loudly stomping around. He followed this up by flinging open the closet door and peering inside.

Altl threw open the closet door, half expecting an angry insect to rush out at him. However, there was nothing inside except for typical clost fare, though all of the clothing lay in a crumpled mess on the floor underneath the broken remains of the hangar bar. He stepped back, and was about to turn and investigate another spot, when he heard a slight scraping noise from above him. His gaze was drawn upward...
Altl propelled himself backward just in the nick of time, as a gigantic centipede dropped down from above into the space he had occupied a moment ago. The giant insect didn't skip a beat as it twisted itself rightside-up, and charged after him. He had just barely enough time to ready his weapon before it was practically on top of him...

In the heat of battle Altl Raised his sword and made his first attacks as he slowly circled around till he was once again closest to the inside of the closet.

With his navigation around the monster Altl stood infront of the closet door. The beast gnarled the best a centiped could as it continued to advance towards Altl. Altl stepped back into the closet which sheltered him for a moment. Crouching down Altl began to feel around the floor.
Slam! One of the Beast's mightly claws /*is that what a centipede has claws? */ collided with the door as pieces crumbled onto Altl. "Aha!" thought Altl as he felt the steel on of the broken hanging bar halves he was soon to come across the other as the beast took another swing at the side of the closet. Gripping the halves of the bar Altl spung up and attempted to jam them into the beast.
/* I thought that I might be going a bit far with the closet protecting me so if you want you can throw in damage for the chunks of wall hitting him or whatever. */

They're more like fangs than claws. And I figure I'll apply your situation to a battle framework and see what happens:
Battle Series 2:
Altl Round 1: ... Round 2: ... Round 3: ... Round 4: ...
Giant Centipede Round 1: Attack Round 2: ... Round 3: ... Round 4: ...
R1: Giant Centipede attacks! Altl takes 20 damage! Altl retreats into the cover of the closet! Altl takes 5 damage from poison! R2: Giant Centipede pursues Altl! Altl searches the rubble. Altl takes 5 damage from poison! R3: Giant Centipede attacks the doorframe! Altl is hit by falling debris, but takes no damage! Altl searches the rubble. Altl takes 5 damage from poison! R4: Giant Centipede attacks the doorframe! The doorframe gives way, showering Altl with debris! Altl takes 5 damage! Altl attacks with an improvised weapon! CRITICAL HIT! Giant Centipede takes 40 damage! Altl takes 5 damage from poison!
The broken metal bars punched through the exoskeleton of the giant insect, and it reeled back in obvious agony, thrashing wildly about with its fangs and many legs. It began to flail about wildly, and it was fairly obvious that its attacks had lost a good deal of coordination; apparently, Altl had punctured something vital underneath the creature's natural armor.

The joy brought about from the success of his attack was short lived as Altl realized he had sustained heavy damage in the process. Taking a potion out he quickly consumed it in an attempt to recover his injuries and followed it up with a series of attacks.

Altl earns 100 XP! Altl has completed * 3/3 of "Exterminators!"
The centipede reeled and thrashed blindly as Altl backed off to heal himself, and he could only surmise that it had sustained serious injury to its ability to sense the world around it. It didn't take much longer before Altl was able to spot an opening as the giant insect flailed about, and he ended the creature's life with a vicious thrust of his blade that pierced through its head. The centipede twisted violently at the blow, tearing his sword from his grip, but after only a few short moments, it simply flopped to the floor and curled slightly. Only the legs showed any sign of residual activity, and continued to occasionally twitch of their own volition.

With his quest complete All took a final swing at the twitching anthropods neck area removing its head. As he looked througout the room for a moment his poisoned state had eluded his mind. The room looked quite shreded after the battle chunks of the wall missing from where the closet had at one time protected him and aside from that there was even more damage to the room that had been done long before he arrived. "Why had Balak even wanted to save it?" Altl thought. "Probaby emotional attatchment."
A spurt of poison suddenly panged in Altl's chest and he quickly whipped out an antidote to digest it. Making his way towards the door a spurt or curiosity hit Altl and he couldn't help but wonder what was wrong with that wardrobe. He turned and made his way towards it and began to reach for the door handle...
"I see, you've defeated everything!" Altl was startled by the voice of Balak behind him. "Of course I knew you would."
"Well, yes. Exce--"
"Very good, now if you'll return to the Adventurer's Guild you can get your reward." Balak seemed to have sobered up and gained a new sort of carisma as a result of his newly saved home and before Altl could say another word he found himself being shoved down the stairs and out the door.
Back on the street Altl saw a great big smiling sun. It was a good day an evil day and all was bright and new. It seemed to him that most destruction was being done, by those who could not chose between the two. Amatuers, Dillitants, Hacks, Cowboys, Clones. The street groaned with little Caesars, Napoleans and thingys, with their building blocks and tiny stacks of gold counting on their fingers with the crumbs down their fronts. He past by a garden saw a girl with her flowers; the camelias, azalias, and magnolias so sweet as he stood there now invisible in the bustling town, she looked so beautiful in the rising heat. He could smell smoke and see little fires burning on the lawn the people carried on regaurdless listening to their hands. Great Cracks appeared in the pavement and the earth yawned. Bored and disgusted it drew him down.
