The door whooshed open, and one of the vipers rushed out at
me, its face half melted, the remaining skin charred. I stepped to the side as
the creature flopped to the ground, twitching as its life drained from its
body.
Without pausing, I stepped over the body, rushing down into
the now fading darkness in the basement.
“Ren John!” Alana called out behind me. “What the hell do you
think you’re doing?”
I could hear her coming closer, moving towards the doorway.
“Don’t!” I called back to her. “Just stay there. I… I got
this.”
“Fuck that.” She was coming down the stairs after me.
Once she hit the bottom stair, the door slammed.
