Royce's heart pounded in his throat as he ran down the maze of hallways. The sound of gunfire and men screaming seemed to be coming from everywhere, and the whole lab shook periodically. Then he rounded a corner and saw several of his teammates, dead or dying, being dragged away by the Chimaera. He held his breath and backed away. One who was still alive, Julian, looked at him, tried to say something. Royce continued to back away, down another hall before the Chimaera noticed him. A silent question in Juline's eyes.
Royce tore his eyes away from the mans gaze and ran into someone when he turned around. Luckily an explosion nearby masked the sound, and Royce saw it was Dion. They both smiled at each other, but when Dion was about to say something Royce stopped him. "There's Chimaera around the corner. We should get out of here." he whispered. Dion cocked an eyebrow at him and whispered, "Well lets go get um." Royce almost panicked as Dion tried to pass him, but he grabbed his shoulder first. "No! I-I'll take care of it." he said as he pulled out an Air Fuel grenade. He carefully peaked around the corner before pulling the pin and throwing the grenade into the hall. It stuck to one of the Chimaera and before any of them could react, erupted in a ball of flames.
