The basement was deathly quiet, nothing could be heard apart from the wind howling down the elevator shaft. It sent shivers up Nicks spine, the hairs on the back of his neck stood rigid as a cold wave passed through his body like a ghost. For the first time in a long while Nick actually felt a little scared, firstly for himself, and then for poor Marbelle...what if he couldn't get to her in time? What if it was too late? Questions raced through his mind like a whirlwind as he crept slowly through the dank and musty basement. He could just about here Luke scuffling in the other room every now and then, still looking for the light switch...Even if he did find it, he doubted it would work, always the pesimist.

Something in Nicks instinks told him to stop...he stood there for a few seconds listening, listening for the faintest sounds after he heard Marbelle calling for help...He was breathing too heavily to hear, his heart pounded in his ears like tribal drums. He took a deep breath and held it there, this allowed him to listen. Behind him he heard it, a deep shallow breathing, but it sounded close, very close. This was when he noticed the warm breath on his neck...

***

Luke wasn't having much luck, he was trying to be as quiet but effective as possible while trying to find the lightswitch, if there was anything in here he didnt want to attract its attention (leave that to Nick i think) he thought to himself. He felt around the edges of the walls, scanning them up and down with his hands as best he could, but it was no use. By now the elevator doors had closed and he didn't even have the faintest light from that. But he struggled on, mainly because he needed to keep his mind off things as much as possible. (Why didn't i stay at home?!)

***

Nick was petrified, all his muscles froze and his joints locked into place, there was nothing he could do, the fear had taken over him...(No! I can't let this happen!) he forced himself to think, and concentrating all his energy his focused and managed to gain control of his body again, as he did this the breathing got deeper and louder, whatever it was it sounded angry...thinking that he didnt have much time to spare Nick threw himself to the floor sliding along the dust covered concrete, all of a sudden the lights flared into action, a few bulbs blew but there was more than enough light to see the creature Nick was dealing with...

"Aaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieee eeeeeeeeeeeee" it wailed as the lights flicked on. Clinging to the ceiling was a creature that had the torso and head of a human but no limbs, just tenticles coming out from where its arms and legs should be, these were spread all across making a spiders web of tenticles, the creature also had no facial features apart from a wide mouth that a long tongue perturded from, saliva and blood dripped from the snake-like tongue as it screamed in Nick's direction.

Nick aimed the Magnum directly at the head of the creature and let off a shot, a huge bang echoed throughout the basement, but the creature although blind and deaf dodged the bullet with phenominal speed and acuracy, it turned towards where the shot had hit the ceiling and then faced Nick again screaming at the top of its lungs in his direction, he had to raise he hands to his ears from the deafening sound. (Now what the hell am i supposed to do?!)

From the doorway Luke approached wielding a fire axe and with one massive heave of the weapon he slammed it into one of the monsters tenticles, with one clean swipe he cut the whole thing in half, purple blood gushed from it as the creature wailed in agony and recoiled his arms. Some of the tenticles shot at Luke and engulfed him, wrapping all the way around trying to squeeze him to death like a douzen anaconda's. The torso of the creature was at Luke's face now, the tounge lashing around tasting him...the being screamed again tilting its head back and opening its mouth wide to take a bite of Luke's head. Just as he did this Nick launched himself onto the back of the being, placing the gun in its mouth and pulling the trigger.

*BBAANNNNGGG*

Another huge shot rang through the basement...the grip on Luke suddenly eased off and the monster crumbled in a heap to the floor. Blood poored from the head of the thing as it twitched a little. Panting and wheezing luke knelt down on the floor as if to throw up, but nothing came up. "That was really brave of you" Nick said to Luke "You'd make a good Police Officer". Luke smiled a little at the compliment, but he didnt think that he could do this kind of thing on a day to day basis. "Stay here, we've still got to find Marbelle" Nick said to Luke who seemed more than happy to take a little rest.

"Wh-what!? DEAD?!" Sam said in disbelief. "H-how!? When!?!?!?" Disappointment, anger, and sadness were evident in his voice. He had been hoping, praying to meet his father one day! "He left you something in his will, however, we can't legally entitle it to you until you're eighteen... so if no one adopts you, think of it as a...going away gift." "What? What did he leave me, then?" "Apparently it's a family heirloom of some sort..."
"Hey, Sam! SAM! Saaaa-aaaaam! We're up this way! Come on!" "Huh? Oh..." He hurridly crawled in the direction of his little sister's voice, wondering when they were going to leave the vents.

"Sgt, where are we going?" asked Private Erny "We're going to find some singer... Named Gena...Gela...Ange...Angel... ." the Sgt didn't seem to care. "Angela!??!? oh my God I love her!" Erny shouted. "Very enthusastic Erny, we're going to die for some girl!" Cpl Cash said. Brandon and three other guys smirked. "Hey Brandon, you still listening to the Who?" Brandon threw him the ear phones and the song "The Magic Bus" came on. "Thanks Dude." Pfc. John said. Sgt.Patrick waited for the humvee to stop
"Alright Ladies, let's get moving find Angela and other citizens, evacuate and haul our happy asses out of here. Let's MOVE!" All the Marines jumped out. Another Humvee had it's men get out, and something that looked like a giant octupus threw it's tenticles and ripped one guy appart, the marines started firing. "Did you see that holy crap!" Erny screamed. "Brandon, John, Newt get moving NOW" the Sgt yelled. They ran to the closest building, broke down the door and searched ran to the roof top.



Two more Humvees came but zombies just charged at them. Men were litterly grabbed and eaten. One medical transport was hit and it's contents pooled out. "Bravo 2 get those Troops to safety take OUT THOSE DAMNED ZOMBIES!!!!" Tango one ran to get the Medical supplies but the zombies beat them to it, they were killed. The marines that got to the humvees left... Only two squads were alive. Both ran towards the buiding that Brandon, John and Newt were in. Just as they entered they shut the door.




"Do we have any supplies?" Brandon asked.  "Some Morphine...Ammo...Some Food...Lot's of water....and that's it..."  The Sgt quietly said, then he walked over to the window he scanned around.

Eight marines out of 120 survived.. 64 evacuated... 40 dead.... 12 infected..... 8 will fight.....

After defeating the thing that took Marbelle Nick continued searching the dingy basement for any sign of her, footprints, blood anything that would give him a little hope but nothing so far. Although the creature had be killed Nick was still very careful, if he had learned anything today it would be that things can change from good to bad in a slpit second.

Then he saw it, a trail on the floor, it looked a bit like spider web, it was the same stuff that he saw in the other room with the tenticled monster. He checked the Magnum "Only 4 shots left" he said in a whisper, getting himself prepared incase there was something else waiting for him around the corner.

Following the trail he came to a doorway, looked like it could have been leading to a room for storage, Old medical files Nick thought. He cautiously turned the knob of the door hoping that it wouldn't make too much noise. He opened the door a tiny bit and took out his knife, angling it through the doorway he used it as a mirror to see if anything was in there...Nothing. He couldn't hear anything either...Could that be good news or bad news? Nick couldn't really decide......

[LavenderFairy]

Nick advanced slowly, seeing that nothing appeared to be there. He carefully made his way towards the empty hall, his ears striving hard to catch any unnatural noise. Suddenly from the shadows, a hand shot out and covered Nick´s mouth, muffling a scream. He was about to shoot the damn thing when he smelled Marbelle´s parfume. "What the...?", he murmured, turning around to gaze into his friend´s eyes.

"You.. you scared the hell out of me!", he cried, both startled and happy to see she was alright. She chuckled softly, "I really didn´t know how to approach, you looked so wary...". He frowned, "Apparently, it wasn´t enough. I couldn´t sense you". She smugly crossed her arms over her chest, "There´s more to me than what meets the eye. Remember Im Angela´s manager, im trained in several martial arts".

"Very true", he nodded and smiled. "So... what happened to you?". She lowered her gaze ashamed, "I... I tried to save someone but it was too late. When I climbed up, I saw a girl half Angela´s age, one of those things had her in its claws, it was biting her". Nick placed a hand on her shoulder. She continued, "I used the elevator cords to climb upwards towards them but the thing suddenly ripped her stomach open. It was horrible! Thats why I screamed...". The policeman nodded, "You were very brave, but considering our situation you should be more careful".

"I know Nick... im very sorry". He sighed, "Well now, lets find a way back, Im worried about the kids". "Hey guys!", Luke´s voice sounded close. "Come check this out!".

As they rushed to him, they noticed an old oak door. It seemed outta place as the hospital was all made of stone. "Should we give it a try and enter?", Luke asked. Nick looked towards the elevator and remembered the blood seeping from the top and Marbelle´s story. "I guess this is the safest route for now".

[Samuel]

Suddenly, a vent cover fell, clattering to the floor, and three figures, one after another, fell into the shadows. Gunshots rang out as Nick reacted with violence! Sam stepped forward, hands in the air. "Don't shoot, don't shoot, it's us!" Anna and Angela stepped forward as Sam said this.

[Schizo]

"MARBELLE!" Angela screamed running towards her as fast as her feet could take her, she wrapped her arms around her waist in a big cuddle "I thought i'd never see you again!" she said with a tear rolling down her cheek.
"Its good to see you too" replied Marbelle, squeezing her back in the hug. "its all thanks to Nick and Luke".
On hearing this she turned around and ran over to Luke gave him a hug and then over to Nick who she also hugged. Nick felt a little awkward, but at the same time it was nice to recieve it.

"So whats happening?" Questioned Sam as he dusted himself after falling from the vent.
"Well, we've come across this odd looking door." Nick said turning in the direction of the huge oak entrance. "And you interrupted us as we were about to go in...Don't worry i'm joking, i'm glad you're here!" he said trying to joke along with the younger ones.......it wasn't working.
"Lets go then!" Anna excitedly said marching off to the door.
"Wait a second, we are going to have to be careful" Luke said, "There was a horrible creature in the basement, god knows whats down there!"
"I agree" Nick stated, "Lets take it nice and easy, no suprises!"

Little did they all know, the night was going to full of them.

[Nirvana214]

The Sgt turned to the squad. "Alright Marines, we've just radioed back HQ and they say they're sending helicopters in now since it's too dangerous with humvee's. What are the damn odds of that. We need to meet up with D company they're moving out but if we can get to them before they do reinforcements are with us. Since this was an operation we got marines scattered across the city so let's get to them before other things do." Eighteen marines we're around the building firing, and slowly wining. We grappeled our way down the building some police officer went. He looked to the side and a dog was running at it him. A shot was fired, and the dog fell, the officer laughed then something ripped off his arm and started tearing him apart. Brandon jumped down and fired his shotgun. The creature was hit in areas that normaly would incapicatate humans. Brandon beat it to death with his shotgun then he and the rest of the squad slowly moved.

 A humvee game with a group of Green Berets. They jumped out and they broke down a door and went in. Brandon slowly moved and so did the rest of the squad. It was pitch black, Brandon turned on a flashlight and was awestruck in what he saw. Hundreds of bodies rotting, he turned his flashlight to something that moved and a head slowly raised above it was covered in blood and then it jumped up. Brandon raised his flashlight to the roof and they all started firing.

"This door leads directly out into the street", announced Marbelle. Nick raised an eyebrow, "How do you know?". She smiled, "Look at the map to the right". Nick lighted the wall and indeed there was a map, but with everything so dark it was hard to read it. How could she read it in the dark?

Nick nodded, still thoughtful. "Yes I see, ok. This will take us out, but we dont know how many of these damned things are out right now, so you guys be careful. At any sign of danger, refrain from running and stick to the group, its the only chance we have to survive".

"Plus we dont have that much bullets left", shrugged Luke. Sam gulped while Anna hugged him, "Don´t worry, I´ll get them with my golf club!". Angela crossed her arms, thinking. "We should all get some sort of weapon first don´t you think?". "Well I still have my mop...", Luke held it up for her to see.

Sam looked around, "Yeah good idea". As Nick and Luke stood by, the rest of the group began fumbling in the dark for some sort of weapon. Anna helped her brother look, walking cautiously behind him.

Meanwhile, Angela found another door, without thinking she opened it to find that it was the guard´s cabin. There was a small table inside, with an old radio resting on it, at the right side, several papers were scattered all with names of visitors and dates. She began fumbling with the desk and found a little drawer beneath it, it was locked. "Hmm...", looking upwards to find any sort of key, her eyes rested upon a baseball bat. It was hanged on the wall, signed by none other than Babe Ruth.
"Wow... this guy was sure a fanatic", she thought.

The singer took the bat, pulled the drawer out and began hitting it repeatedly. The sudden noise startled everyone and they hurried to the small room, worry evident in their faces. Nick was first to poke his head in, only to see the girl with a happy expression. "Hey you!... Don´t make that much noise, you almost gave us a heartattack!".

The girl pouted at him, "Aw... but I got a good thingy!". Smiling, she showed him a shotgun along with two boxes of shotgun shells. "Bingo!". He nodded, "That was quite a discovery... I bet this guard knew this day was coming or something". He took the shotgun from the girl. "Alright, Luke you handle my gun now, know how to shoot?". Luke nodded, "Who wouldnt?".

Angela readied the bat, "I´ll stay with this one then". "Hey guys we´re back", Anna announced. "Sam found a crowbar!". The boy nodded, "Yup its pretty heavy but I think I can handle it".

Marbelle was standing next to the door, her arms crossed on her chest. "They are taking too long". She then raised her hand to take a look at her silver Magnum´s barrel. "I just hope this lasts till the end...".

After a few minutes of discussing the plan and the weapons they all gathered back in front of the door. Nick placed a hand on the handle. "Alright guys, at the count of three..."

"One, two ..."

The door opened, sending a cold wave inside. The moonlight greeted them as they sped outside, once again into the night...

[Samuel]

"Anna. Anna. Wake up." "Hmm? Now?" "Yes. Now. We're getting out of here." "Mmm...okay..." The two slipped through the halls. "Hang on." "What?" "You stay here, I need to get something." Sam darted away, and, after picking a few locks, came back into view, holding the sword. It had a note attached. "Sam." He read aloud. "I'm sorry I was never there for you. I'm sorry I couldn't raise you. Perhaps this will some day make up for it. With love, James...well, this thing could be useful. Let's get out of here." Brother and sister slipped out into the night, to survive out on their own... THWACK! "Ow! Anna!" "Zone out when we're safe, bro." "Hrmph..."

[LavenderFairy]

Say wha...? o .o;;   TBC~~ Im still sleepy xD.

(Sam had a flashback and Anna snapped him out of it with her golf club.)
