Five Vernichi
Five sighed when Briarios answered her questions, she was feeling more and more frail, as if what he had said about those monsters, could easily rip her apart. Was this really how sh wanted to go out? Getting cornered by monsters while the group does not even notice? NO! She clenched her teeth and her hands to fists. She was just wanting to yell at them all, furious, unable to understand why this was still happening and why these strangers looked down on her. Though, it was a problem with her thinking, that no matter what everyone is against her. The way this ship was going, it would be like everything inside it was against her. What could she do other than just yell. Just when she was about to speak loudly, no doubt angering most of them, the a familial voice came upon her ears. With grave, grave news.
“Announcement guys. I know it must be a leisurely stroll walking through the blood filled room with all of the dead bodies, but you have a few of the creatures coming your way, about 4. Doesn’t sound like much but you’re not ready for them so I advise you relocate yourselves as soon as you can. That will be all”
She gasped and looked for the exits, two, move... She began to pick up pace ignoring the others that were struck by this, she had to get ahead of everyone. She turned to see if the others were moving, turned around and had her face meet the wall. She covered in and groaned, the second time she had a mishap like this. She struggled to fine Briarios with her head aching. “By the way, they are already in the hallway which you came from…”
Five gave out a small squeak of fear as she followed the rest the best she could with her head throbbing, she could not focus completely and it just seemed to get in the way of what others were doing around her. Where, were the monsters now? Where were the survivors? Where, was she? Her mind racing once more, it seemed to be all to good to be true but she then fell. Tripped over her own feet, she got up and once more looked for the leader of the group, for a way out of this hell hole waiting to melt. Down the hall, some were still in the room, some in the hall, down the hall, that was her way out. She sped walked down hoping to catch up with the group, not paying attention to the vents nor the clumpy foot steps of non-human feet. 'Breath! Count! Live! Do something!' she thought.
As she seemed close enough to the moving group, she noticed down the hall the vents were moving, shifting, there were more? Or was it her imagination?
"Did that guy just..." she stopped her out loud thought and shook her head. She had no clue now, she felt lost, afraid, alone. She opened her purse and pulled out an odd item.. It was her fusion coil, the mini version anyways, the battery, marked with the blue glowing light at the bottom of the handle marked it was low. She gripped the handle, and pushed up on it making the tip of the torch push out tiny grey wires, they sparked. She sighed, thinking that maybe, just maybe that if those things got to her she had something to protect herself with, that or take three hours to take out a locked door somewhere in this hallway that seemed to never end. She took another look around and realized once again that she had lost Briarios, that or she was to much in self panic to notice where he was. The monsters, strong, smart, hunters, she was prey... It disturbed her to think that humans were no longer on top pf the food chain.
"Will somebody help me?!" she finally spoke out loudly, holding the fusion coil like a knife.
