"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Andrews flails violently, trying to get away from what used to be Gutierrez. Panicking, squirming, his animal instincts take over as he tries to get away.

(OOC- Escape grapple! Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run,!)

With strength fueled by fear, Andrews breaks free of the thing's grasp and stands up. The body of Dr. Gutierrez stands as well. His head is cocked back and mouth wide open. Sticking out of his mouth is a black slug like thing about the size of a small cat. It has several thin black tentacles that wave the air as if searching for something. One touches Andrews' shoulder and pain like a wasp sting races down your arm numbing it. (Failed Fort Save. Lose 4 points of Dex.)

"Aarrgghh", screams Andrews, wincing in pain. Almost numbed with pain and disbelief, Andrews manages to get up to his feet. He staggers for the door, and like a coed at a gang rape, screams, "Somebody help me!!"

Raising his arm limply, he squeezes off more shots from his pistol.

(OOC-Can I do it all? Feel free to embellish.)

(OOC- So....Maerdwyn. Sorry you're missing out on all the fun. So for my next character,

I'm thinking a computer hacker spiritualist who had dual scholarships from college in Greco-Roman wrestling, and the 100 meter dash. Gotta love CoC!!)

Andrews backs away from the thing blasting away as he does so. ((18)+3=21 Hit, (2)+3=5 Miss, Damage (7)+1=8) Blood and flesh erupt from a hole blown through its arm. He keeps on coming.

The body of Dr. Gutierrez continues to advance towards you like he was walking in the park. All expect for the black obscenity that is sticking out of his mouth. Thin tendrils wave in the air hungrily searching. Another one brushes long Andrews jaw. It feels like several dentists are drilling deeply into all of his teeth. (Made Fort save!!) Andrews tries to keep from blacking out from the pain. It takes all he can to keep standing up.

Andrews digs deep into his memory, back to his rookie training. He remembers the sweatsuits, the obstacle courses, the firing range drills. He looks in front of him at the slithering mass that is coming at him, and imagines it as a moving paper target there for him to simply cut to ribbons with his pistol. It is all that he can do to keep hold of his sanity.

(OOC- Multifire, back up.)

Solomon calls Hobbson. "Agent Hobbson, has Andrews gotten in touch with you? He had me call for backup, then said he was coinging to meet me - I haven't heard anything since, and he's not answering his cell - I can't check on much from this end: is backup on scene yet?"

Gomez · Apr 28, 2005

Backing up and firing, Andrews sights in on the black mass in front of him and fires. ((15)+4=19 Hit!, (20)+4=24 Hit!!, confirms Crit with a (12)+4=16, Damage (10)+1=11 and (4+8+5)+1=18) The first bullet catches Dr. Gutierrez squarely in the throat and the next hits the black slug-like thing like a hammer.

The doctor totters and falls face forwards on to the floor.

"Andrews called about a minute ago canceling the need for back up. I am going to go down there myself to see what’s going on." says Hobbson.

Andrews empties his clip into the thing on the floor. He slams the door shut, and gets on the telephone to the biggest fish he can think of. "I have a biological emergency here. I need immediate quarantine of the Phoenix City Morgue. The Route 70 perpetrator has infected the coroner. This is an emergency!". Andrews yells into the phone as he looks at the thing on the floor. Not even sure of what he is doing. He gets up and inspects the lock on the door and looks for other exits to this room. He's not letting anyone short of Hobbson, or a Federal Biohazard Team into this room.

He calls Brown, his voice is shakey as hell, and he's not telling him anything over the phone, "Brown, do whatever you can to get ahold of that professor in West Virginia. I may be tied up for a bit. We'll talk soon." he says before hanging up abruptly. "Yeah, I'll be alright." is all he says to any inquiries.

Standing there, staring at the thing on the floor, he locks the doors and sparks up.
