A moment later, Mina came into the room and saw them on the floor.
"Oh no, they've been poisoned, I need to get the antidote", Mina said and ran out the room but bumped into Rob O'.
"Whoa careful young lady", Rob O' said.
"Sorry, but some people are in there unconscious", Mina said.
Rob O' checked inside and saw Blaze and Silver on the floor.
"Oh no, quick lets go, where's the antidote?" Rob O' asked.
"Follow me", Mina said and walked off with Rob O'.
They rushed to the room where the medicine was.
They arrived at the staircase that leads to the room but they were ambushed by a red zombie with long claws, the crimson head.
"What in the world is that?" Mina asked.
"Wish I knew, shoot it!" Rob O' said and both of them shot the zombie dead.
They entered the room and Rob O' saw Charmy unconscious on the bed.
"Charmy.........." Rob O' said.
"He was poisoned as well, longer then they have", Mina said.
"Lets hurry up then, we don't want them to end up like Charmy, more of a hazard", Rob O' said.
Mina nodded and grabbed the antidote, "There should be enough for two", Mina said.
They both ran back to Blaze and Silver were but were cornered by a zombie along the way, they both shot it dead.
"What if it ends up like that red zombie we saw?" Mina asked.
"When we kill these things, we need to be sure to cause destruction to their heads or set them on fire", Rob O' said.
"Makes sense", Mina said then thought, 'How can that happen? When me and Knuckles faced these creatures we didn't have to worry about these creatures transforming'.
They went to Silver and Blaze and they administered the antidote to both.
Both woke up.
"Ow, what happened?" Silver asked.
"You're ok, thank goodness", Mina said.
"Oh, that snake must have poisoned us, thanks for saving us Mina", Silver said.
"No problem, just be careful, both of you", Mina said.
"Things are getting dangerous, you'll need this, when you kill a zombie and their heads don't come off, this will come in handy, use it to light them on fire", Rob O' said and gave Blaze a Kerosene canteen.
"Do you have something to light them on fire?" Mina asked.
Silver showed off his lighter.
"I'm off then, I have some other business to attend", Rob O' said and walked off.
"Be careful, don't do anything I wouldn't do", Mina said and left.
"Well lets go see what these masks are for", Silver said.
They walked out the door and saw the carcass.
"A dead body, I should burn it", Silver said.
Blaze applied the Kerosene and Silver lit it on fire.
"Damn, looks like we have even more issues", Silver said.
They both left the room and walked down the stairs of the lobby.
"Wonder where these things can go?" Silver asked and rested his back against the wall but fell through what was shown to be a door.
"Are you ok?" Blaze asked.
"Where did that door come from? What is this place?" Silver asked.
They looked around and we see that they're in a cemetery.
"Here's an area we didn't explore", Silver said.
Both walked around the cemetery and as Blaze passed by a grave, a hand popped out and grabbed her leg, causing her to scream.
"Oh shit!" Blaze shouted and stepped on the hand.
The hand pushed itself to the top and a zombie came out the grave.
Silver shot the zombie in the face a few times and wrecked it's head.
Blaze panted a bit and looks at the body.
"Should we burn the body?" Blaze asked.
"No, I destroyed the head, let's keep exploring", Silver said.
They both went down a set of stairs that led underground to some head statues.
"Hm, these statues look like the masks", Silver said.
"Maybe they all go there?" Blaze asked.
"Makes sense", Silver said.
"Lets look around the mansion, maybe we'll find something", Silver said.
Silver approached one statue that matched one of the masks and placed it on the statue, and once that happened, they hear a chain come off, Silver and Blaze noticed that it came off a mid-air container nearby.
.
"What the?" Blaze asked.
Silver placed another mask and another chain came off and some blood started spilling out off the container.
Both looked a little freaked.
"Should we do this?" Blaze asked.
"I'm sorry but we must", Silver said.
They placed the final two masks on the statues and the container fell off the chain.
They both walked toward the container and saw there was an elderly body in there, the container was being used as the creature's tomb.
"Ew, at least it's dead", Silver said.
The door to the exit then locked.
"That's not good", Blaze said.
The dead body came alive and approached them.
"Shit! Now what!?" Silver asked.
The crimson head rushed at them but they both grabbed guns and shot the zombie.
It was a lot more resistant than the other zombies or crimson heads, so Silver used his shotgun and Blaze used her grenade launcher.
The zombie approached them more, weakened but still resistant.
"Shit, we're gonna run out of ammo", Silver said.
"Aim for the head", Blaze said.
Both aimed their weapons at his head and blasted, killing the monster.
"At least that old man is dead", Silver said.
Blaze picked a stone and metal object up from the container, "What does this thing do?"
"Lets look around the mansion, maybe we'll find something", Silver said.
"This mansion's a real headache, we only found 2 survivors, Rob O's being a rogue and Shadow's missing", Blaze said.
"We won't figure things out standing here, lets go", Silver said.
They explored the mansion and returned to the room which contained the door to the room Blaze was almost crushed in.
"Ok, let's check through this door", Silver said.
They opened the door and out of nowhere a zombie jumped out and pinned Blaze to the floor.
"NO!" Silver said and aimed his gun but another zombie came and knocked Silver to the floor and attempted to bite him.
Blaze struggled to get the zombie off her, she started to reach for her hand tazer while keeping the zombie from biting her while Silver jabbed his knife into the zombie's neck, the zombie was still trying to kill him and blood started spilling all over his face.
Blaze managed to grab her tazer but the zombie knocked it away from her and used his hand to rake her eyes to temporarily blind her, then went in to bite, but Silver managed to get enough blood out of his zombie to weaken it and kick it off, then he used his knife to stab the head of Blaze's zombie.
Blaze took the opportunity to use her own knife to slit the zombie's throat and cause it's blood to spill on her head, then she punched it off.
Silver helped up Blaze.
"Thanks, oh you have some blood on your face", Blaze said, holding the eye that was raked.
"Yeah, you have blood on your head, is your eye ok?" Silver asked.
"He raked my eye, I'll be fine", Blaze said and wiped some blood off her head and put her hat back on.
Silver wiped the blood off his face and saw another zombie at the end of the room.
Both Silver and Blaze shot the zombie down, then they decided to burn all the bodies to prevent their resurrection.
They went into the room and checked a door at the side.
They noticed a note at the end of the area, next to a set of stairs.
'I left some ammo in the room, I'll continue to find a way out, Shadow', the note said.
They checked the room next door and saw some healing items, and ammo for their guns, and a place to get more kerosene.
"At least we know Shadow's still alive", Silver said.
"And he's looking out for us at least", Blaze said.
They grabbed the items and left the room, they went near the stairs.
"Should we explore up the stairs?" Blaze asked.
"Maybe later, it likely leads to the hallway upstairs, we need to check the rest of this hallway", Silver said.
They left the room but after the door opened, the handle broke off, much to their annoyance but they left the room anyway, aware they can't go back through that door and went down the hallway, they peeked in one room but only saw colorful portraits, they looked nice but nothing to their interest.
They went down the hall and saw a door that took them down a path and went down the area.
"Doesn't look too interesting", Blaze said.
They saw a door at the end of the hallway with a identification that resembles the soul and metal object.
"I guess this is a key", Silver said and put the item in place.
They went through the door and found themselves in a dock like room.
They went through the double doors and found themselves in an area with sleeping dogs.
"Shit, we need to be extra quiet", Blaze said.
They tip-toed and reached a gate and saw an area with a large area of water.
"There's a path on the other side, how do we get there?" Blaze said.
"Should we swim?" Silver said.
"No way, I'm not gonna chance the possibility of some creepy little fucker pulling me under the water", Blaze said.
"Right, wait what's that?" Silver asked.
They looked at a monument.
"This can drain the water, but there's a crank missing", Silver said.
"Well let's try the other door", Blaze said.
They went back through the door and tip-toed past the dogs again.
They went through the double door and saw another door nearby.
They decided to go in the door and saw a path.
"Wonder where this leads?" Silver asked.
As they walked, Silver heard his radio go off.
"Respond", the radio said but very static.
"Shadow?" Silver asked.
"....Chains....retreat....resist...cabin....", Shadow said between static.
The radio went out and Silver was puzzled by what was said.
"What did he mean?" Blaze asked.
"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling now, is Shadow trying to warn us of a monster?" Silver asked.
"Well whatever it is, we need to be ready", Blaze said.
Silver nodded and they both continued down the path, then through a gate they passed a cemetery riddled with crows.
"These things better not pop out of the ground again", Blaze said.
"Yeah, that's cliche Romero stuff", Silver said.
They passed through another gate and walked up to the cabin.
"You think anyone lives in there?" Blaze asked.
"Considering the fact that the mansion is deserted with the exception of all those creatures, I wouldn't count on that, though one of our teammates may be", Silver said.
Blazed nodded in agreement and both went through the cabin door.
"Hello?" Blaze asked, but no one was there.
"Guess no one's here, I thought Shadow would probably be here", Silver said.
They checked a bedroom and Silver saw a Magnum on the bed.
"Hm, lucky day", Silver said and picked up the gun and an extra round for it.
Blaze checked further back and saw a crank.
"Hey, maybe this can drain the pool", Blaze said.
"You found something Blaze?" Silver asked.
"Yeah, a crank for that water area", Blaze said.
"Good now lets go", Silver said and walked through the entrance to the room, "Why would a cabin be out in the mid-", a clanking sound happened and Silver stopped talking.
"Silver?" Blaze asked and approached the entrance to see Silver out cold on the floor.
"What the-", Blaze was also knocked out from a shot to the head.
