Bubba mans a turret, guarding against horror. From the other hallway, screams. Blood. Shouts. Then *pain* and -- a shape! A shape of claws and death and adrenaline and HUNGER comes surging out the door. Bubba throws the flameturret up, spinning it, the thing lands and rips and tears and smears and screams a noise of death and almost pulls Bubba's arms clean off.
Grin dives across a table, sliding his shield on his back to kick an assault rifle into his hands -- BANG BANG BANG - three shots, Mozambique drilll, chest chest head and *it's still coming*!!! The Woodsie Travellers form a spear wall, presenting a hedgerow of sharp and prickly ends and yet it's still coming, screaming, raging, MURDERING --
And it's spilling acid everywhere!
>The Hunger That Was Gluttony is bleeding acid! Don't stand on those tiles! It'll BURN!!!

From the distance, a screech. A soft noise of electronic surprise. A barrage of railguns. And then the crump crump crump of impacting rockets and the Spitespider comes boiling out the bad darkness, throwing itself across the chasm, fangs scything, clawings sweeping, legs kicking against the walls and the wire, and though it gets SHOCKED it keeps COMING - breaking down the ice door.
( In all the excitement, the Augmentic that walked off of the ledge and got zapped is harder to notice )

Sanitation Operatives grip weapons, adjust gear. Orders are to stand by and stand guard. But the rest of the facility might... need them? It's sounding pretty bad out there.

Amelius and Keltan share a look. Did they get it? It's so sorely broken, shattered, the thing that thought it was a good. Amelius breathes out a soft sigh of relaxation. Good work. These fletchettes aren't entirely to spec, but they do fit the gun. Teamwork, right? I'd give you a high five but I'm not sure which limb you--
From the darkness, a long serpentine tendril wraps around Keltan and drags them back !! Slamming into walls!! SQUEEZING!!
>GRABBED!
>-4 to physical skills, and no MP until you break free!!
>OH NO!!!

>ESCAPE PHASE
