He ran through the halls, coming to the end of the hall he glanced both ways. He backed against the wall gasping for air; he wiped some sweat from his brow. He dropped his dispensed clip and slid in a new one. Hearing noise down the hall he peaked over, he could see another one of his comrades running down the hall. “Eric!” he said “Around here.” The man came around the corner, pinning himself up against the other side of the hall. The man was a big guy, well built; he was carrying a heavy machine gun. He looked at Eric and nodded to him, the big man quietly made his way into the middle of the hall, sliding to his belly he set up his machine gun, ready to fire at anyone. “Frank” whispered the man still glancing down the hall, gripping his heavy machine gun “I here something Frank” Frank glanced down the hall listening intently for any sounds, crashing through the ceiling, it landed on top of Eric and its fangs sunk into Eric’s neck. Screams filled the hall, letting out a battle shout Frank unloaded his clip into the beast. The beast looked up at him blood drenching his face his fangs could be seen in the dim light of the hall. It crouched back down grabbing the dead body of Eric and crashed through the wall to its right.
Frank checked his gun, switched off the safety, then moved forward to the hole. Looking through it he could see no sign of the creature; he turned and saw the blood smears all over the wall. He stopped listening once again for anything that could indicate the creatures approach, listening closely he herd some moans from down the hall.
“Shit” he muttered to himself, and took off down the hall leaving the area in which he heard the moans. Pushing on his ear piece, he spoke “Come in, this is the remainder of Delta, need immediate evac!” He let go of the button only to hear static. He swore again and made for the exit stairwell of the building. As he entered the room, he stopped and went completely silent; he cautiously began to ascend the stairs. He descended two flights of stairs when the wall beside him exploded. He was tossed in the air to hit the fly over the stair rail and down a flight. He felt something crack, but he rolled onto his back anyway. As they ran down the stairs he lifted his gun, the automatic fire ripping through them. He reached down to his waist and felt it close around something round and hard. He pulled the pin then tossed it, sending it landing right in the middle of them. He rolled forward onto his feet and stood, and noticed the stairs to the roof were destroyed by the blast.
He moved down then, taking the stairs four at a time. He reached the bottom floor, and made to open the door. But it had broken, and he took a step back. He launched himself forward, foot ramming the door outwards. He reached the exit, running to the middle of the streets he looked up for signs of the helicopter. There were none, looking back to where he had come from, he could see the Melak swarming through the door. He swore under his breath and began unloading into their ranks. He rammed a new clip into his gun, than he backed up towards a door, his back resting against it.
Pushing through the door, came a couple of men, guns blazing, the Melak all turned, but they were full of confusion. But the most amount of fire was coming from the larger amount of men, so they turned and swarmed at the group.
Frank moved out into the middle of the street, looking up he saw the helicopter coming into view, a huge turret ripped into the enemy swarm, and soon were all killed. As the copter, came down for a land he could see a huge smirk on the guy manning the turret. Jumping onto the copter, with the three remaining men, he yelled up too the pilot, “Get us out of here!”
“Roger that.” Then the helicopter was off, flying over the burning city towards Headquarters.
Damn ...
