Chapter 7: Fighting the Serpent
10:31 AM 11th May 1995
The group finally awoke and prepared their equipment, John finally glanced over at the door.
"C'mon," He said, "We better get going; God knows how we're going to deal with that snake…Or how we're gonna get Lydia through this."
Lydia shook her head, "I'll be fine, let's just go, okay." John shrugged, "I was just staying a fact, given how you've reacted so far."
Lydia nodded, "I know, don't worry, I can deal with this."
So, with all their equipment prepared they headed for the door and descended back down to the second floor. Almost immediately they heard the sound of Yawn's massive body, slithering through the hallways. Lydia gulped but composed herself and, as they headed to the stairwell to take them down to the first floor they heard the crashing of Yawn breaking through a wall behind them.
"Get ready guys, it's coming." Lisa stated as she readied her shotgun, everyone else readied their strongest weapon with Lisa shielding Jacob and Carl staying close to Lydia to help her in case her phobia caused her to freak out again. Sure enough, the next crash was neared as Yawn finally found them and the chase was on.
They ran as fast as they could taking pot-shots at the snake whenever it got to close. Down on the first floor they found themselves being forced away from the stairwell they needed to go to.
"Guys, we're gonna have to make a complete loop around, otherwise our only way out is turn and go straight for the snake." Carl explained, the others groaned but immediately began running, trying to get back around to the stairwell.
Unbeknownst to them they were being watched. On a rooftop opposite the school was a woman aged thirty was watching them through a pair of binoculars. She had long blonde hair tied back in a ponytail and blue eyes. Her black uniform identified her as Shannon O'Donnell, a member of the USS. She had been sent in to collect the samples of the virus and eliminate any survivors. She was angry that she had failed to kill the traitor but she was determined to ensure that this group wouldn't escape. She pulled her black gas mask on and turned on the visual display on the lenses before picking up her sniper rifle and preparing to take a shot when they came out.
'They won't escape me; I'll kill at least one of them before they manage to come close to escaping this city.' She thought to herself with determination.
The group continued trying to escape and firing at Yawn which was growing more aggressive as it took more and more damage. They finally reached the stairs down to the first floor and began to descend. However Yawn suddenly attacked and trashed the stairs. The others managed to leap to safety but John was sent crashing to the ground where he landed badly.
"Oh fuck, fuck!" He yelled when he saw Yawn bearing down on him. He fired at it with his assault rifle as it opened its mouth.
It hissed angrily and reared back as the others also began opening fire on it forcing it to back off and allowing the group to grab John and continued their escape, with Carl supporting him.
"We've gotta get out of this school!" Lisa yelled, Jacob nodded, "C'mon!"
They hurried until they finally reached the lobby, Yawn however wasn't about to let its prey escape and lunged after them. They all turned and fired their strongest weapons at it. The combined force from the weapons was finally too much for Yawn. It shrieked and flailed before finally dying. They stopped to catch their breath and reloaded.
"Thank God that's over with." Lydia groaned.
"Guys, we're not gonna get anywhere with John like this." Carl pointed out as John groaned in pain. Lisa nodded, "You guys stay here, Lydia and I will check outside, then we can form a plan after John's recovered."
With that they stepped outside.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
