"He's gonna get away!" One of the officers shouted as a slimy cat-like creature ran throughout the space facility, its green scales glimmering as it slid around the corners. "After him!"

Two security officers chased the creature, their boots pounding against the hard floor as the thing hissed and growled, making a break for the door. The creature slid to a stop, hissing at the officers.

"Careful, the thing bites." One of the men said, holding his blaster rifle tightly in his hand, ready to shoot the creature should it make any sudden movements. "Come on, we don't want to have to hurt you." He cooed, slowly stepping forward with his arms outstretched, trying to calm the hissing creature. "Easy, easy."

Suddenly, a bright flash filled the room, blinding the men momentarily. As the flash faded, the creature was gone.
"Damn." One of the security officers cursed, slamming the butt of his gun onto the floor in frustration.

"What happened?" A commanding voice called from down the corridor.

"That thing just disappeared, sir." One of the security guards replied, turning to face his superior officer.
"Well, find it!" he shouts back, turning to the man beside him. "I want that thing alive."

"Yes, sir!"
