As the squelching slowly disappeared Jack stood, his hear racing. "Whatever that was, it be best to avoid it."
"you don't fucking say? We should just get outta here man." Cyrus stood up.
"And return with nothing of note? Nah" Jack glanced at Cyrus.
"You're gonna get us killed!" Cyrus said loudly.
"Shut it before you draw its attention damn it." Jack now glared at Cyrus.
Cyrus sighed outta fustration, "Fine..."
"Alright so we've basically swept almost this whole floor except the admin office at the end of the hall." Jack walked to the doorway and looked both ways to see nothing but a trail of strange liquid leading out to the main area and door at the end of the the opposite hall that read admin on it. "This way.' Jack quietly crept out of the room. Cryus quickly followed trying to stay quiet as well as they made their way down the hall to the door. Jack slowly turned the handle and opened the door making his way in and as Cryus entered shut the door. Jack begin to search the filecabinets that were rusted and worn down and as he did so Cyrus began searching the desk that had only a rundown computer sitting on it.
"Damn it, there's nothing here" Jack shut the draw of one of the file cabinets. "What about you?"
"Nothing..." Cyrus sighed "What if there isn't anything here at all?"
Jack tried the computer and as expected it was dead "There has to be... Unless someone knew we were coming and cleaned the place out..."
Cyrus paused and looked at Jack "You don't think..."
"It's possible... Jeff could have perdicted we would show up and search the place."
"if that's the case than we're shit outta luck." Cyrus goraned in annoyance.
"Not exactly... The creature still roams, if we can get a picture of it, it wouldbe better than nothing." Jack opened the door to the room. "or find its origin."
"You're fucking crazy..." Cyrus was irritated by the idea.
"I might be but it's better than nothing" Jack scanned the hall to make sure it was safe.
"Fucking A..." Cyrus followed Jack as he walked out into the hall and to the main entry area.
"If this place is built similar to the facility I work at than it should have a basment area" Jack pondered the thought
"Well it be better if we fo-" before Cyrus could finish his sentence the power in the facility suddenly sprung to life, a familiar voice sounded from the entry way.
"Seems you two have been busy" Jeff cackled,"But sadly this will be as far as you go" Jeff hit an emergency lock down button on the reception desk and an alarm sounded, metal shudders closing behind Jeff as he walks out of the front doors.
"EMERGENCY! CODE 12 CONTAIMENT BREACH! LOCKDOWN IN EFFECT! ANY PERSONAL TRAPPED SHOULD HIDE UNTIL THE LOCKDOWN IS LIFTED!"
The alarm blared as a screeching was heard and thudding,the creature coming into view it had long arms that dragged on the floor, its legs twsiting and bending in grotesque ways, black ozee dripping from it and its face was only made up of a mouth that looked like nothing but a void with teeth.
Jack shoved Cyrus"Fucking run you idiot!" Cyrus snapped out of his shock at the creature.
"Where!? We're fucking trapped!" Cryus shouted.
"Anywhere but here!" Jack grabbed Cyrus by the wrist and began sprinting back down the hall at the other end of the entry area. The creature close behind tearing through the hall after them.
"We're gonna fucking die, we're gonna fucking die!" Cyrus began to panic
"Not as long as I fucking breath" Jack led them around the corner leading to a large security door, "Through here!"
"It's locked remember!?" Cyrus shouted.
"Not for long" Jack began to kick the door trying to break it open.
"Jack it's getting closer!" Cyrus trembled in fear.
"OPEN DAMNIT!" Jack screamed as he put all his strength in his next kick, the door flying open, "come on!" Jack ran in and down a flight of stairs.
Cyrus followed slamming the door in the creature's facing staggering it for a second.
When they got to the bottom of the stairs they burst through an unlocked door into a dimly lit room.
Jack scanned the area to see cages filled with human remains. "Dear god..." Jack's heart sank.
"Jack... we have a promblem!" Cyrus grabbed Jack's arm outta fear as the creature broke down the door, with nowhere left to the run, the only option was to fight.
