"Don't stop! Don't stop!" I heard Matt shout to the others.
"It's not working!" Emily panicked as they continue to spray the beetles.
"Here stand still!" Becker asked me as he grabs the beetle and throws it and wraps his arms around me for a few moments.
"I'm out!" Both Abby and Connor shouted.
"Okay, let's move! Move!" Matt shouted as they moved down the steps towards us as we also move towards the giant computers.
"They got the Queen out!" Abby stated as we watched her make her way over to us.
Becker lets go of me and grabbed his EMD "Becker don't!" I pleaded knowing what he was going to do as everyone else joined in as he passes them and shoots the Queen dead.
"Now what do we do?" Abby asks as Becker keeps on shooting.
Feeling my head go light and my legs weak I fell to the floor just managing to grab Emily.
"Thali!" Emily shouted as she helped me to the floor as everyone's head turns to us.
"What's wrong with her?" Matt asked as Emily wraps her arms around me while Abby and Becker shoot the remaining beetles that stayed.
"I feel weird".
"She's burning up, Abby didn't you get bitten too?" Emily asked Abby.
"One bit my wrist but I feel okay, they can't be venomous" Abby says as she kneels in front of us.
"No, You don't understand" I say "she's allergic to insect bites" Connor finishes for me.
"She needs an EpiPen, there should be some in the medical bay" Connor says.
"Here, I'll take her" Becker says as he hands his EMD to Abby and wraps his arm around my waist helping me walk.
"Okay you take her, Abby and Emily cover them" Matt orders as Connor's phone rings "Connor, you answer that phone and tell Philip exactly what's going on here".
"I'll make this right" Connor said loudly after us, clearly seeing the destruction his anomaly made.
We walked down the corridor to the medical bay quickly as we could "hey, come on you're doing really well" Becker praised me "not far now, How are you feeling?"
" A bit insecty-bitey but" I tried to joke but was shushed by Emily as the sound of the insects scurrying filled the hall way but it was hard to see as the lights keep on flickering but soon the sparks started to fly letting us know that they have chewed their way through the wires.
"Here Emily" Becker says handing his EMD to Emily as he picks me up like a kola realising that I will slow them down.
We soon arrived at the medical bay as Becker places me on the bed, Abby opened the doors to see a handful of beetles which Abby and Becker both shot at before Becker could go through it.
"There's no adrenaline" Becker states as he looks through another box.
"Baby, where is your EpiPen?" Becker asked, placing his hands on my knees.
"In the car" I breathed "there's always one here so I never brought it in".
"If we open the external doors that's it" Abby states "there's no controlling them".
"We need to get her to the hospital" Emily says.
"If you keep the beetles in the ARC, you've a chance of wiping them out" I say.
