In the upper hallway-
Earl and Rosie kept running, into the quarters.
In the quarters-
Alex and the others retreated into the meeting room, along with Kerry who continued to flee in terror.
In the meeting room-
"Whatever happened to Earl and Rosie, I don't think the skinheads did it," said Lynne. "They've got black goo on their clothes around waist level. It looks like it's burned through. You can see part of Rosie's midriff. Mine's sexier, though."
"Yeah, I see it," said Beth. "Rosie, what happened?"
"There was a monster in the elevator shaft!" screamed Rosie. "It could change shape, and bullets didn't hurt it! It ate Ashley and one of the skinheads and crushed Thomas! The other skinheads killed it with electricity and fire! We ran away while they were busy!"

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"Okay, you escaped, you did well; now try to calm down." Alex says soothingly. "Bud can you stick your head out and watch the corridor? Now, Rosie do you think the monster can get up the elevator shaft?" The monster sounds far fetched but then today hasn't exactly been ordinary so Alex is prepared to take her news at face value. "Earl, can you tell me exactly how Horst killed it with electricity?"

10:28 AM
In the meeting room-
Kerry ran on to the lower hatch chamber, still screaming.
"It rode all the way up with us on the elevator!" said Rosie, bursting into the meeting room with Earl.
"There were a couple of makeshift weapons in the room just before the elevator shaft," said Earl, calmer now, "a cattle prod-lookin' thing and a flamethrower. Horst used the flamethrower and Buzz had the electric prod. That thing got real big after it ate people. It's dead, but there might be more of them. I think we should leave the shaft to the skinheads. Let's get upstairs, seal the hatch, and take our chances with the fire."
"What fire?" asked Bud, watching the hall. "All clear so far."
"That jerkoff Hammond went and poured diesel fuel down the stairs, then ignited it when we were in the warehouse! Bastard damn near killed me! If I find him..."

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
Alex looks around the group of disheveled civilians under his care; it would be irresponsible to continue even to retrieve those weapons which could prove useful. At least they had some knowledge now and it was essential to stay alive to use it.
"Okay, I suggest we go back; put some distance between us and the monsters; hopefully the skinheads will keep them occupied and hopefully the monsters don't know how to operate an elevator. Earl is right, we'll have to take our chances with the fire; it can't burn for long once the fuel has burnt off. Everyone happy to do that? Same order as before, Bud take point and I'll bring up the rear."

In the meeting room-
Bud led the way back to the hatch chamber.
In the lower hatch chamber-
The others arrived in time to see Kerry riding up in the elevator, screaming in panic. The elevator reached the top of the shaft by the time they got to the bottom.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"The dumb bitch!" Alex pushes past the others, "Watch the passage behind us!" He shouts and then tries to climb up the ladder quickly hoping to prevent Kerry from sabotaging the elevator.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
Alex looks up the shaft: there is no room for him. Instead he keeps pressing the button, hoping to recall the elevator before anything happens to it.
"Let's hope the dame is too crazy to think beyond flight."

In the lower hatch chamber-
"Go easy on her," said Beth. "She's been through hell."
The elevator came back down, this time without Kerry. The hatch at the top of the shaft was still open. As before, the elevator would only hold six of them at a time.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"That's something at least." Says Alex as the elevator returns to the floor. He turns to Bud and Rita.
"Time to choose; zombies or monsters? That fire should have kept the entrance clear so it should be safe enough up there. And bullets down zombies at least. Load up and then you go first with four more to secure the top room. Send the elevator straight back down once you're up".

Earl, Rosie, Robert, and Beth joined Bud and Rita on the elevator. Earl activated it, and the elevator slowly rose.

The elevator reached the top of the shaft.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
Alex waits, watching down the corridor towards the lower levels and listens hard.
Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
10:32 AM
In the upper hatch chamber-
Bud sent the elevator back down after everyone got off of it.
In the lower hatch chamber-
Even over the sound of the elevator, Alex could hear there was nothing but silence in the lower level. Above, he could hear Kerry screaming in the distance. After the elevator reached the bottom, her screams took on an even more terrified tone.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"What's happening up there? Quick, let's hurry!" Alex waits until they are all on the lift and then presses the button to ascend.
Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
10:33 AM
In the lower hatch chamber-
Everyone piled onto the lift, and Alex pushed the button. It began to rise.
In the upper hatch chamber-
Earl, Rita, Rosie, Bud, Robert, and Beth hurried down the hall after Kerry and into the common area as the elevator reached the top with everyone else.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"Where are they going? They are supposed to be covering the lift!" Mutters Alex as he steps off the lift, scanning the area.

In the common area-
"Those rats that were in the cell are chasing that girl!" Bud called back, leading the way into the shower room with his gun ready. "They've got red eyes!"
In the upper hatch chamber-
Alex's group hurried after the others into the common area, though Alex couldn't see past them,

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"Everyone without a gun, fall back, watch the rear! Weapons ready!" Alex allows people to run past him back towards the lift whilst he focuses his rifle forward towards the cells.
"I put a bullet in one's head and the other was manacled to the wall!" He exclaims. "I guess you have to shoot them after they've become a zombie!
Dammit, that's one bullet I won't get back. And that woman in the pod isn't necessarily dead either then.
Let's deal with these ones first. Did they get Kirsty?""

In the common area-
"No, it wasn't the corpse, it was the rats eating the corpse!" called Bud. "That infected them! They haven't got her yet, she's running from them!" He hurried onward into the shower room while everyone else fell back into the hatch chamber.

Re: IC-Down the Hatch(various)
"Holy smoke, zombie rats!" Alex wonders if someone started the fire to stop the rats. This is the direst of news as the rats would be almost impossible to shoot and there could be hundreds of them. Alex tries to remember if he's seen anything down here that could be used as a flamethrower.
He looks around at the civilians that he is trying to protect; nothing in his military training has prepared him for this and he is at a loss what to do; other than deal with the most immediate threat.
"I'm going forward with Bud and anyone else who has a weapon and feels like swinging at some rats. The rest of you wait here and stay alert." He shrugs, "We can only hope there's not many to deal with."
