Arianna and Isaac didn't hesitate to follow Tyrell, Arianna sighing as she considered the choice that she had just made.
She couldn't fix it now. She continued to follow silently, Isaac behind her.

-
Harold and Ronda followed behind them, and walked out of the room. Tyrell took the lead now as he walked beside Arianna. "Hey." He said he spoke in a hushed tone as Harold walked furthest to the back. "Thanks for backing me up. Fact is sacrifices have to be made if we wanna get through this."
-
"Agreed...sad, but true. If Brigette didn't fall behind there...well, more of us would've lost our lives. Harold has a good heart...but we won't be able to save everyone." Arianna muttered back, while she made a mental note to it trust Tyrell with her life. If he would play the survival of the fittest game? Then she would too. Harold, she'd act trustworthy to him.
-
"Aye. And what about your brother back there?" Tyrell asked her. Isaac seemed to be walking with Harold. "His knee looks like it got stabbed with a fu[i]c[/i]king pitchfork."
-
"Coincidentally? It did. He's holding up...I hope. Bandaged it, stitched the wound together the best I could. He's still not walking as good, but he's still capable of combat, as long as he can get a jump on the target.." Arianna pocketed her hands as Isaac kept close to Harold, yet not too close. He seemed solemn and quiet, if anything.
-
"Honestly, combat doesn't mean shit in our situation. It's all about who can stay at the front of the group." Tyrell stated. Then, ari heard gunshots ring out from down the tunnel the way they came. Harold bowed his head to the ground as he continued to walk. "Damnit..." he let out.
-
"You're not wrong-" Arianna was soon cut off by the bullets, while she sighed and shook her head. "...Should I have ended his life? Just so he didn't end up like one of those undead bаstards?" Isaac had been silent for the majority of the group's movement, although he spoke up at last to try and calm Harold. "Your father's a noble man, Y'know. More noble than most people I've met.."
-
"Ya, he was pretty damn good." Harold said. "We should hurry though...it sounds like the gunfire has stopped." "Aye he's right." Ronda said. "They coulda made their way down the tunnels by now. It's only a couple more miles of tunnel to get to the castle!" "Then let's fu[i]c[/i]king move!" Tyrell said as he started into a jog down the sewer, taking a left up ahead.
-
Arianna and Isaac nodded, as Arianna sprinted behind Tyrell quickly, leading the group forwards to the left tunnel. Isaac hobbled with all of his speed, attempting to keep his speed up.
-
They continued to make their turns, but the Arianna heard the now familiar mourns of the dead. However the source did not come from behind them...
-
"Keep your guard up.." Arianna muttered, raising her sword as Isaac found himself within the center of the group. He kept his rifle raised, checking for rounds within its chamber - twelve, out of the five twenty-round magazines that he carried. That was okay, for him.
-
Then, gunfire poured out of the walls beside the group. Tyrell hit the ground first as pink mist bursted from his shoulder, and since he was in front of Ari she remained unscathed. Harold grabbed Isaac by his shoulders and forced him to the grounds as bullets cut across their head level. Ronda, however, fell limp to the floor. Her cheek was caved in and blood flooded out of her face. She violently twitched as the gunfire ended and suddenly the wall beside the group began to crack. Something was hitting against it...
-
"...We need to move, NOW." Arianna yelled, approaching Ronda and sighing before she drove her sword into the woman's skull, ending her life instantaneously. She then lifted up Isaac and Harold, looking over at Tyrell, attempting to help him up. "Just a flesh wound, we need to go."

Tyrell yelled Arianna. bullets hailed through the top of the tunnel again as Tyrell pulled the girl to the ground by her leg and dust came down from the bricks residue which nearly choked the group. Tyrell probably saved Arianna's life. Then, one section of the wall fell apart. It was just the top part and it was behind the group. One of the dead, which looked fresh and human like stuck its head out and squeeled at the group.

Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 5/16/2017 1:26:49 AMThe bullets that did find themselves hitting Arianna collided with her shield of Aura - although that wasn't even holding up well. Arianna found herself upon the ground, groaning as she began to crawl, Isaac trailing behind her. He had no shielding, but he had hoped that Harold would follow.
-
Harold stuck behind Isaac as more of the wall began to crumble and the zombies tried to make their way through. They crawled over Ronda and further down the hallway where Tyrell stood up. "Okay I think we're fine. But we have to fu[i]c[/i]king run right now!" He told the group. "Ronda..." Harold said sombrely. "She's dead, Harold! Nothing we can do about it! Stop whining about it and let's-" Then, the wall behind them broke apart down the tunnel. Zombies stumbled out and Tyrell didn't bother to yell anything as he ran down the left path of the sewer.
-
Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 5/16/2017 11:27:31 AM"Harold, we have to go-" Isaac yelled, hobbling forwards while Arianna attempted to keep pace beside him, even sheathing her sword to help him sprint. It was now or never, and they had to get out of this situation and as quickly as possible.
-
Harold ran behind them, and quickly gained speed to meet Isaac and Ari. Tyrell continued to run ahead and took a sharp right threw the sewer tunnel. "HURRY THE HELL UP!" He yelled at them as he made the turn. A spray of gunfire hit the wall on he groups left but they were u harmed. As Ari turned around she saw zombies with the light machine guns like she had seen on the boat. The walked slower but well, they did have guns. Then, a dozen runner ran past the gunners and towards the group.
-
"Shit! Go, go!" Arianna yelled, pushing Isaac further as he hobbled alongside her. Pain was building up in his leg, but he kept running, no matter what. Arianna was about to carry him at this point, really.
-
[spoiler]VERY RED ZONE[/spoiler] The group continued to run, and the horde continued to sprint behind them. Harold suddenly turned and fired on the horde with his weapon as he sprinted, but this caused him to fall behind somewhat. As the group followed Tyrell down another turn, they found themselves in a longer stretch of the tunnel. Tyrell continued to sprint down it and he remained ahead of the group as Harold fell behind but held the creatures back.
-
[spoiler]Decisions, decisions..[/spoiler] "HAROLD, COME ON-" Isaac made a saddened attempt to get Harold's attention, yelling as loudly as he could. Yet Arianna merely tugged him forwards, grief crossing her face as she forced herself to keep moving forward. Isaac's yells of despair rung in her head, as he attempted to still get Harold's attention: "HAROLD!!"
-
Harold turned his head forward towards the two. One of the dead suddenly came from around the corner and clawed at his arm. He quickly shot it off and it completely exploded. However, This made the two vilebloods susceptible to surprise. Suddenly an arm blew through the wall to the right of Isaac, and it clawed at his arm and cut across his skin from his shoulder to his elbow. Blood flowed immediately from the surprise attack and the blew arm continued to grasp at him.
-
"G-Gah!" Isaac yelled in utter agony, grasping his bleeding arm as dark, corrupted blood seeped from the wound, covering his arm in its deep black liquid. (Vileblood's have corrupted blood - and as such, it is a darker color. Bloodborne stuff.) Immediately, Arianna drew her Beretta and unloaded two rounds into the zombie's hand, before grabbing Isaac and pulling him tightly to Tyrell, who was probably still running ahead..
-
Suddenly, ahead of them, the entire wall in front of Tyrell collapsed. A beast, it looked wretched and warty and it had blue sick skin that was peeling off of it bashed through. It had pincers for hands and Tyrell slid in his tracks as he stopped. Harold ran forward and met with the group, but he stopped as soon as he saw the creature. The beast let out a terrifying cry as Tyrell Immediately opened fire on it. It held its arm up to block the shots and it swung at Tyrell which sent him flying back towards the children. "What the fu[i]c[/i]k?!" He cursed. Harold took a knee as he fired at the forces behind the group and held them back. "Try to get past that thing!" Harold told the group. "I'll cover six'o'clock!"
-
"Just what we needed.." Arianna muttered sarcastically, looking down at Isaac. "Alright, listen - I need to get that thing's attention, so you can get behind it, alright? Then...try to look for a weakness. Specifically look around the peeled skin, okay?" "...Erm, yeah...a-alright." Isaac responded shakily, as Arianna patted him on the shoulder - the one that wasn't bleeding. She then approached the beast, sword drawn as she waited for it to move. Arianna's worst thought was that she would be attacked by zombies and the beast.
-
"Arianna what are you doing?!" Harold asked her. Tyrell stood beside her and he aimed his machine gun at the beast as it clawed its way closer to the group slowly.
