Lucian were getting the day off today, the manager said his wife's birthday is today so he won't be here
(Lucian) Oh, that's great. I have to finish this final slide for the presentation, and I'll be done. Will you be leaving now?
Yeah, did you want something?
(Lucian) No, you're the only person here. Do you have the key to close up at the end of the day?
Sure, here *keys dangling*
(Lucian) Thanks I'll close up before I leave have a great day John
(John) No worries, call me when you're done, I was thinking of going out today
(Lucian) Sure *chuckles*
I should've been able to leave by now, I only got 2 hours of sleep then came to work, I probably won't be messaging him cause ill be needing so sleep after this, I wonder if the security guards are here yet or if they went home too, I'll stop by their room and see after this
*a few hours later*
Finally, im done! That took forever *looks at watch* nice just passed 4 in the afternoon, I'll head to the guard's office and if no one is there then I'll just lock up and head home
*walking in the hallway* This place is very scary when there's no one around, im pretty sure the guard's office is to the right
*crunching sounds*
He must be eating some chips while watching the cameras i wonder if he can see me, i turn the corner towards the guard's office and open the door to see a small hunched-over humanoid creature eating something on the ground
What the hell is that! Where the guards, should I leave and call the police? Yeah that's more of a better action
*slowly closes door, making sure not to make a sound* *pulls out phone* why isn't my phone turning on, I definitely had it on the charger at my desk, what the hell
A scream like metal on glass slices the hallway. Whatever is in that room knows I'm here.
I duck back, heartbeat knocking in my throat. The creature hears me. A pounding on the door answers, shrill and hungry.
Im gonna leave and hope I can find someone to help
I started to run but slipped falling to the floor from some liquid on the floor
Ow, what did I slip on, It's red, is that blood?! I gotta get out of here just in case that thing gets out
I got up and started sprinting towards the stairway to go downstairs to the first floor
What if there's more of those things, i need some kind of weapon
I went down to the second floor, which should have an armory for the security guards, I don't hear anything in the hallway
*I took out the keys and opened the door to the armory, i went in and locked the door behind me*
Hm, let's see, metal batons, riot gear, pepper spray, tasers, ohhh a gun rack, it's only hand pistols and probably only had rubber bullets but it's better than nothing, its also locked though and i dont have a key to it, maybe its somewhere here, theres a key hook but no key, where would it be
Crap did the security guard have it, I'll grab the taser and the riot pads for my arms and legs, and grab pepper spray and a metal baton, I'll check the first floor first to see if I can just leave without the gun
I went back into the hall down the stairs and opened the door slightly and listened
…
Maybe there isn't any- *clicking* *chirp* *screech* they sound like they're fighting each other but their at least 5 of them, I'd rather have a gun, I'll go fight that one I found, get that key, hopefully he has the key
I walked back up to the 3rd floor, walked to the room, and slowly opened the door
Did it leave? I don't see it anywhere, alright let's search this body, the whole right arm was missing, his neck was chewed away and it seems to have gone for his neck because of the scratch marks, oh there's the keys *jingle jangle* crap it's on his belt loop, let's just get this off you
*chitter*
Huh
A pale short humanoid monster with long sharp fingers, its whole head was a mouth with rows of sharp teeth, it had 3 tongues that were flying towards me, it had 2 big holes on the sides of its head, its right arm swung towards my head as it jumped off the roof towards me, i pulled out a the taser and shot the prongs hit the pale skin and tased the monster, i was only hoping to atleast stop it for a second, the monster went stiff after the prongs hit its skin and started electricuting it, i saw its skin start changing color, i grabbed the baton and started smacking the head of it over and over and over and over, till i couldnt here its bone crunching anymore, its very human from its body buts its still and monster i cant let their looks decieve me, it whole body seem to be made for eating from its huge mouth, ill call it a mawling since i discovered it, ill write it down in a notebook and sketch it when i can
I was about to leave till i notice a shiny gem the size of my finger tip in the head of the creature, i grabbed it and put it in my pocket, i dont know why it was in the creature but my body just knew to grab it, i felt somekind of force pulling me towards it, i went back down to the second floor, opened the gun rack
Hello beautiful, i used to be in the army for a while so this glock 19 isnt going to be to hard to use, i looked in the bottom drawer, it had few mags full of 9mm and a few boxes of of it aswell, i cant hold much though, i looked through the lockers that were in there and found a mountain bag with a survival kit and a few shotgun shell buckshot
No way is there a shotgun somewhere here? Maybe in the box next to the rack, hm, nice I have the key to it too
I opened the box to a Colt M4 and a Remington 870
Holy crap, no way, im definitely taking this with me, it has about 7 mags for the M4 and the Remington is full of some buckshot as well, im not going to use them against those creatures the Glock 19 should be enough and if the creatures are only in this building, me walking out with all this would probably scare someone, the security gaurd must've been a hunter with these guns
