About to answer the girl he helped escape, Markus's heart skipped a beat when the elevator door decided to re-open. Nothing being in the way, he was able to take a deep breath in relief. Of course, this was short lived, as one of the creatures had attained the inspiration of charging the elevator door. Keeping the other two toward the side with the buttons, Markus squared off for a kick to keep the thing out of their only means of escape. Fortunately, this was unnecessary. Practically diving, the girl beside him managed to shut the door before it reached them. The only thing audible from that point was the slam against the door.
