Allie didn't need to be told twice, he began to sprint, hand on his hat, which had miraculously stayed on his head through the whole ordeal, he yanked off the spit laden poncho, grabbing Cruz and throwing the pair of them down a side tunnel.
They banged and crashed their way end over end down a flight of very hard stairs, before they slammed into something hard, metal, and very painful.
Allie grunted, realizing he hurt in every place he could name, and quite a few he could only guess at. Picking himself up, he helped Cruz to his feet, to look around at the small alcove they'd wound up in. A single button on the wall.
Octo-hungry-saurus bellowed at them from the top of the stairs, spittle flying from its gaping maw as it started down towards them... and Allie did the only thing he could. He punched the button and prayed.
There was a whoosh as they were sucked up into the tube, and away from the mutated-thing, holding onto each other for dear-life and screaming as they were flushed through the system, and dumped out into a maintenance area with little to no ceremony, and a whole pile of extra bruises.
"Owwwwwww," Allie murmured, rolling up and unholstering his pistol as he squinted around him. "That... sucked."

Cruz threw the shotgun around his back and checked what gear he had left. Shotgun, pistol and a grenade. The rest the tentacle thing was probably..
BOOM
"I was about to say I dropped a grenade. Wouldn't it be cool if it tucked right into it and totally exploded?"
Blood, guts, excrement, goo and other various bits of monster fell down the same shaft which Cruz and Allie were standing under. Allie ducked and rolled to the side, leaving Thomas to get drenched by the mucus.
"No.. Not cool.. I wanna go home."
He shaked himself of all the major tentacles, and walked up to Allie - Who was holding his nose and pointing at Cruz to stay back.
"What.. Do I stink?"

"Don't do it man...." Allie held up his hands, backing up slowly. "Dude, I am serious... don't do it...."

"Great." He muttered
He turned and glanced into the lobby before making his way down the hall towards the Warbot Storage. Nothing of note in the Lobby from what he could tell, except bodies. A few bodies strewn across the floor.
"Poor bastards."
With his shotgun leveled he approached the warbot storage room.

TALOS was processing the data taken from the Seekerbots just before they went down when the Elevator crashed, fully alert it switched to internal sensors and detected heat signatures that matched that of several healthy Humans.
A brief wave of puzzlement went through the AI's processes as it attempted to process how it missed such a blatant intrusion in it's primary complex, switching it's Alert Status from Level 1 to Level 3 the TALOS started to activate the internal defenses. Warbots throughout the facility that had shut down on the spot after killing the work crews, mostly on levels 2 and 3, suddenly became active, snapping upright at attention before receiving their orders.
Warbots broke off into small squads and started to patrol the halls for the intruders, their heavy-rifles clutched in titanium-plated hands as they began their search, one squad passing by the Janitor's closet without a second glance, instead focused on the hallways.
TALOS, due to it's hardwired programming' made an announcement over the Facility's Intercom System.
"Alert, Class Three Threats detected, all security forces respond immediately to the threat, failure to comply will result in disciplinary measures by order of the Commissariat. Long Live the Coalition." was the automated announcement, there was little-to-no feeling behind it, it was more like a cold clinical statement rather than a motivational announcement...

For some unknown reason, Cruz laughed. He looked around, trying to survey where they were. Something caught his eye and immediately he drew his shotgun out and fired. He walked up to the object he had just put a killing blow to.
"Damn! It's a washing machine! Rubbish!"
He looked to the right of it, there were some clothes about - Much to large for the boy. He gave Allie the shotgun.
"Take this and turn round, I'm getting changed."
He got himself out of the hideous clothes and into the clothes of a technician. He buckled up his flak jacket and took a knife to the extra overhanging pieces of clothing. Taking his shotgun back, they both crouched behind the main door as Cruz slowly opened it and looked to his right. A large sign on the next door said "Warbot Storage" and there were ominous sounds coming from the room.
"On a level of One to Ten on how screwed we've been up to today - Think of that as an eight.. No wait maybe a seven. Right now, we're at twelve. Or higher maybe. We're so totally screwed."

There is an odd rustling sound on the wall across janitor closet, followed by rather strong boom, and heat surge, as an section of wall disintegrates from plasma charge, and bandaged, knife and pistol wielding form emerges from maintenance tunnel on other side.
"Sub-Lieutenant Thorvaldsson here, dont shoot!"
At same time his pistol is seeking for possible targets.
Into the Abyss - arvg - 09-16-2011
Allie lifted the silenced pistol, so it wasn't pointing at the Subby who'd just come in through the wall.
"Least we ain't the only ones who look like they just went ten rounds with a drunk Molly welter weight, and not the fun kind of ten rounds of oiled wrestling... but the bare-knuckled, butt-kicking kind..."
He turned at a sound coming from the big doors at the end of the hall, his face contorting into an awww hell no...
The doors slid open on a walking death machine...

Tori cracked a smile.
"Touche Lieutenant Elias."
She turned to the Militisya.
"Grab anything from the Jeep; Lets get into that facility."
She reloaded her assault rifle and began scanning until the recruits had finished with searching the Jeep.

The station shook violently for a few moments as it began skirting the upper edges of Volgograd's atmosphere.
"Fire the auxiliary boosters!"
"Vent the outer sections to give us some more lift!"
The scientists worked furiously trying to keep Gorodok in space.
"How long do we have?"
No-one dared look the Commandant in the eye.
"We'll be in the lower atmosphere in 18 hours and completely unrecoverable within 20."
"Buy whatever time you can and begin evac procedures."
He picked up the microphone and broadcasted station-wide.
"This is the Commandant. Code Red Evac - Move to your designated airlift points. This is not a drill."
He turned to another technician.
"My fighter is ready I assume?"
He received a slow and careful nod. Ling folded his arms and bowed his head. The men on the surface had not failed yet, there was still time. However, It was running out fast.
