Being a <span class="mu-b">MASTER ANGLER</span> and all, you know better than anyone that there’s nothing better than an unexpected catch–so as you dodge to the side of the killer’s desperate attack, you opt to loop a little <span class="mu-i">boneus</span> on the end of the hook!
Jed sees what you’re doing, of course, but by the time he yanks the chain back with one of his remaining arms, you’ve already yanked the jerry-rigged pin out of the <span class="mu-r">NAIL BOMB</span> he inadvertently gave you and stuck it on the hook’s point!
Leaving him with a cheeky ‘you dropped this’, you take cover behind the fallen ceiling just as the killer’s own creation explodes in a nasty cocktail of chemical reactions and rusty shrapnel! As the bomb’s payload embeds itself into the ceiling and the surrounding boilers, it suddenly dawns on you that you <span class="mu-i">really</span> oughta’ leave. Like, <span class="mu-i">soon</span>!
Peeking over your cover, it looks like the artist-in-residence has a similar idea–with all of the legs he stole reduced to splinters and dust, the slippery bastard slithers across the floor using what few limbs he has left! Not keen on giving him an opportunity for one more scare, you swoop down from your cover with a devious cackle and deftly snatch his head off of his body!
“<span class="mu-s">NOOOO!</span>” He roars as you scramble to find Syb, “All… all of my <span class="mu-i">WORK!</span> My tireless effort-”
Now he knows how <span class="mu-i">you</span> feel when people ignore the ‘<span class="mu-i">WET FLOOR</span>’ signs, you snarl! Gritting your teeth as you start to feel the steam’s heat worm its way into your armor, you carry the skull under your arm like a football as you skid around the corner! Pressed against the swiftly-melting ice lies Syb–her sweater living up to its name for once as it becomes soaked with the stuff!
“<span class="mu-i">Stan…</span>” She groans, barely lifting her face from the ice, “<span class="mu-i">W-we have to go-</span>”
Yea, you roar, you figured! Grabbing her sweat-slicked hand, you tug the wilting Goth in the direction you came–you can head back out that way!
“No time!” Ly shouts as his <span class="mu-g">ASTRAL FORM</span> dives back into the safe confines of your body! “Did a quick checkup–dis’ whole eyesore’s gonna collapse at any second!”
Okay, you frown as a chunk of ceiling the size of a boiler crashes down next to you, what about Gus, then? You can link up with him and find an exi-
“<span class="mu-i">STAN, we HAVE to do it!</span>” Sybil gasps as the remainder of the ice melts, adding to the already sizable amount of water vapor in the air, “<span class="mu-i">We HAVE to use THE SEWERS!</span>”
You bite your lip as you glance down the tunnel leading out–you uh… you don’t <span class="mu-i">have</span> to, reall-
“<span class="mu-i">NOW, STAN!</span>”
Okay, okay, sheesh! Still, it’s not like Syb’s in any position to argue right now… what’s the escape plan?
>DOUBLE BACK AND EXIT THE WAY YOU CAME IN!
>HEAD FOR GUS’ SIDE! YOU CAN LINK UP WITH HIM TOO!
>ENTER THE SE-ERR, DO WHAT SYB SAID! MAYBE!
>YOU’VE GOT EXPLOSIVES–JUST BLOW A WAY OUT!
>WRITE-IN!
