Evans POV:

"Attention all staff. We are experiencing a containment breach. I repeat. We are experiencing a containment breach. Code red. Code red!" I heard a guy yell over the intercom.

I quickly sat up from my seat. Here we go. Time to commence the mission. Which one of those things escaped now? I quickly made my way into section C-7 of the facility. The guards were rounding up all the scientists and visitors here. I tried to make my way into section C's control centre but got stopped by a guard. "No passing through this point" he said sternly. I looked up at him and tried to push past he pulled me back a little more forcefully this time "I said no getting past this point" he said through gritted teeth. I don't think he will be letting me through any time soon. I don't have a level 5 access card to show him anyway. There's two of these guards here. I think I have a plan. I quickly struck the first guard in the jaw and kicked the other guards knee in. The first guard pulled out his gun and aimed it towards me. Quicker than I could even register what happened, I smacked the gun out of his hand, punched him in the gut and threw him to the floor.

I forgot about the second guard until I felt a hand on my ankle. I turned to the second guard and stomped on his head, followed by a loud crack. I killed one of them. Might as well kill the other. I ran around the first guard, jumped on his back and snapped his neck. He fell forwards with me on his back. I didn't have time to put my hands out In front of me so I landed face first into the hard, glass floor. I groaned and sat up. "Well at least all that training paid off" I said to myself. I got up off of the floor and walked over to one of the guards. I wasted no time as I snatched his level 5 access card and his pistol. I'm gonna need these. I moved the card under the sensor and the door opened. "Fancy" I commented.

I ran up to the control panel and I looked at the screens in front of me. The screens displayed a live camera feed. Nice. I can use these to my advantage. From the corner of my eye, I saw a shadowy figure zoom past camera 3. I quickly looked at the screen but saw nothing. Dammit.  Behind the screens, there was a big glass window. Past the glass is the courtyard. The courtyard connects section C, B and A. Each section has 10 separate floors. Normally the sections control centre is in floor 7. I'm gonna need to get to section B and A if I want to use more of these cameras.

I heard quick and heavy footsteps from outside the door. I pulled out my gun just in case guards dared to break through the door. "Search the perimeter! I want this place on lock!" I heard a loud voice say. "Yes sir!" The commander of section C must be outside this door then. I waited for the guards to pass by and made my way out of the room. There were now red flashing lights everywhere and the windows had metal plates covering them. The facility is on lockdown. This must be really serious. Containment breaches are usually handled well. This, not so much.

I held my pistol firmly in my hands and slowly made my way down the corridor, checking all corners. I don't want one of these things jumping out at me. Maybe a bunch of them escaped. Or maybe a bigger and dangerous one escaped. I really hope not. Just as I finished that thought, I heard a loud bang. That wasn't just any ordinary gun going off. That sounded like a missile hitting a surface. I heard incoming footsteps behind me and wasted no time to book it down the corridor.

"HEY!" I heard a loud voice behind me. Shit. They spotted me. I need to find the blue prints for the barsins immediately. I kept turning at random corners. I have no idea where the hell I'm going. This place is like a damn maze!
