Valarie after fighting her way through dozens of men found Agent Michaels.

Agent Michaels: Valarie a pleasure to see you

Valarie only responded with a smile before opening his cell and freeing him. The moment she was done the men began closing in n their direction, Agent Michaels pulled out the gun Valarie had handed him and began firing at them.

Valarie also rushed the others, relying solely on her martial arts she closed the distance before they could fire. She grabbed the gun from one of their hands and using the wall performed a wall flip into their midst. The men seeing they couldnt fire recklessly abandoned their guns in favor of their fists.

Valarie seeing just smirked before weaving through them with such grace one would consider nothing short of an artistic dance. Grasping the arms of one the men she used him as a shield block a few attacks before jumping over him and retaliating with a flurry of attack taking them out in seconds before turning around and snapping the guys neck.

The others seeing this pulled out knives but it was useless as their blades were soon embedded in one another, as her last guy fell Agent Michaels had finished with his side as well. Agent Michaels smiled and nodded at Valarie which made her give him a really. Valarie turned prepared to continue her way through the hall to find Elise and Rose but Agent Michaels stopped.

Agent Michaels: wait, you were unconscious when we brought in but I wasnt. This place holds more than just us and I am pretty sure those people would like a piece of the action.

Valaries eyes widened hearing the news before nodding and following after Agent Michaels. They made their way through the halls combatting another group of me and at this point Valarie understood if they couldnt get reinforcements pretty soon, they would be overcome by the seemingly endless number of soldiers.

They soon arrived in a hallway full of cells, they shared a look before pulling a small back rectangular card and pressed a button with that there was a buzz and all the gates before opened. Valarie heart beat sped up as she was waiting before soon people who seemed to be of all ages stepped out all in a white jumpsuit with a number printed on their backs, the most eye-catching thing about them being the collars on their necks.

The people looked around until finally all of them had their eyes trained on both Valarie and Agent Michaels. Agent Michaels went straight to the point

Agent Michaels: were breaking you out

Valarie pressed another button and with a beeping sound all the collars opened and fell to the ground with thuds. The people in whites all began to glow revealing their identities as Demi-Humans.

In the control room one the men monitoring the screens broke out in cold sweat.

Man: sir, we have a problem

Professor: what now? How hard is it to take down two agents and one Demi-Human?

Man: sir, its more than one Demi-Human the agents broke out all the Demi-Humans in the containment wing sir. What do we do now sir?

The professor paid the man no heed and headed out the control room.

With Eric, Eric with his claws was an unstoppable killing machine cutting through the men as though they were paper. Their guns were useless, cuts healed in mere seconds and to trade fists with him, that must be the funniest joke ever as they all knew there was nothing they could do but scream before they crossed over to the land of the dead.

Eric stood amongst the corpses his outfit dyed red with blood, eyes glowing a bright amber and his face taking on wolfish features and his black claws dripping red with blood, his image at that moment was the stuff of nightmares. The soldiers who originally wanted to rush him came to a halt as they began shaking in fear.

Eric locked eyes with them and those eyes, those bright amber eyes that seemed to stare straight into their soul caused their minds to go blank. *ROOOAAARRR* Eric released a roar that shocked them back to their senses but before they could take a shot Eric jumped into their midst. His claws liberated ones head from his body before he grabbed and sent into anothers gut with such force, they were sent flying.

Eric went through them like a wild animal, relying solely on his instincts he ripped them apart. Eric stepped into another finally seeing Elise and Rose he smiled as he retracted his beastly features and came before them, seeing him they both broke in tears of joy.

Eric: Im here, remember I promised that nothing would happen to you and your mom.

Rose nodded at that and Eric smiled before his eyes began to glow again and then ripped the door of its hinges. Elise smile and was going to hug Eric but her eyes saw something and fear was evident on her face as she held Rose tightly. Eric seeing this turned to see what she saw, standing there was a figure completely covered in black combat gear with only their eye visible.

The figure was of course none other than Lupa.
