Leah saw Matt, Leila, Reina, and George enter the elevator just afterwards when she heard a scream from the room they were just in. As the elevator rose she saw Kylie crying over her father and Mellie staring in wonder. She then also saw her father and Drix sprinting towards another elevator. As the elevator jolted to a stop she was dragged along by her wrist again. Thrax once again threw open a set of doors, revealing the hypothalamus.
Michelle gasped. Thrax threw her aside for a moment and thrust his hand into the covering of the DNA strand to the protests of the workers in here. He grabbed a DNA bead and held out his bracelet, which seemed to grab it. Then he killed the workers one by one, to her horror. She watched the temperature meter rise and just as he was about to leave, there was a voice from the door.
"Stop right there Thrax!" she heard her own father's voice.
The viruses were caught on such surprise that George lost his grip on Matt, who kicked him into a wall. George ran back at him and knocked him on the floor getting pulled down as well by Matt. Leila kicked at Reina who was twisting Leila's arm up her back when a crack echoed throughout the room. She could hear Leila crying and Matt and George fighting when she all of a sudden was yanked upwards off her feet by none other than Thrax.
"Go ahead shoot" Thrax chuckled. (I definitely have him chuckling WAAAAY to much as of late)
All of a sudden there was a shot. She expected to feel immense pain, but found it only grazed the top of her hand, hitting Thrax's hand forcing him to release her with a cry of pain.
Michelle shakily got to her feet. Thrax was already running the other way and it was starting to get hot in Frank. Ignoring what everyone else was screaming, she ran after him. She saw him take a corner and she took the opposite remembering the shortcuts she had been shown as a child.
She sprinted very fast with anger towards Thrax. For each step she took, she remembered something that made her angry. Cutting back onto the path she realized that he still was a few feet in front of her. It was almost of no use. He had longer legs and was always going to beat her.
She ran until she found herself in the mouth. Frank coughed and Thrax flew out, but Michelle launched herself out by some means and clenched onto him. After struggling for a few moments, Michelle got a grip on the DNA bracelet, but at the same moment Thrax overpowered her and she fell down until she landed hard, and everything seemed to fade into darkness.
