[QUOTE="talien, post: 4430457, member: 3285"] [b]McKinley Boulevard: Part 6 – Holes[/b] Hammer landed on something soft. It grunted beneath him. “Archive?” “Yeah,” groaned Archive. They were at the bottom of the pit. The opening was easily thirty feet up. A strange wind whistled all around them through numerous two-foot wide holes. The pit narrowed at the bottom, which was where Archive and Hammer were wedged. “Can you move?” Archive strained. “I think so.” Something chattered in the darkness. Hammer fumbled for his pistols. He swung his head back and forth, catching glimpses of tiny clay bodies, the tilt and waver of their eyes glittering in his headlamp. “We have to get out of here. NOW.” Archive started climbing upwards, finding footholds in each of the holes. They struggled past each other. One of the things scurried out of a nearby hole and sank its teeth into Hammer’s ankle. He screamed and kicked it off. The chattering became unbearable. “Climb!” shouted Hammer. “Climb!” He fired both pistols blindly around him. A rope made of bed sheets hung down. A dark-skinned man in dreadlocks shouted down to them. “Hold on! I’ll pull ya up!” Hammer shoved Archive towards the rope with his elbow. Then he resumed firing into the darkness. Squeals and shrieks of rage responded. They bit him again and again, their poison seeping into his veins, but Hammer fought it with all of his willpower. He finally made it over the lip; strong hands lifted him up. Hammer rolled over onto his back, gasping. “Thanks,” he said. “I don’t normally help cops,” said the man with a Jamaican accent. “You must be Gideon,” said Archive. Gideon nodded. “I was lookin’ for Kristian. I heard him go into his room but he never came back out. I went in and he’s not there.” “They got him,” said Archive. “We’ve got to find Kristian fast…” Gideon was about to say something when their conversation was cut off by a scream upstairs. [/QUOTE]
