Continued. Start at # 1, 3 - 6.
- I did it, judging by our location - one of the exterior
walls of the plant - finished for Warwick Hall. - More
precisely speaking - its foundations, standing ... ON THE AIR
... Also - right over us ...
- I'm coming! - Suddenly rattled said Warwick and turned
sharply, to quickly reach the exit.
Hall, like a cat with lightning speed rushed him
after and tightly clenched around his neck entwined around her
arm, with hatred hissed straight in his ear:
- Anywhere you go back, Mr.
Warwick ...
Warwick tried to escape, but the neck
after that was even more squeezed
in a steel clamp arms Hall. By removing
His eyes, Warwick choked croaked:
- You're just crazy, student!
Do you not all right with the head, huh?
- Lead-ka popokladistee yourself, buddy!
- Just have not shouted at him tenderly
Hall. - Go ahead! Do not stop!
- Hall ... - Viskonski moaned.
- Give me here! - Turned to him Hall
and with his free hand he pulled the nozzle
spray.
Then he released the neck of Warwick, but there also
sent a nozzle directly into his face. Viskonski abruptly turned
around and it was pripustit spirit to leave out. Hall, seemed
not to react to it. Not removing his gaze from Warwick
he said coldly:
- Come on, Mr Warwick. I'll go for
you. Warwick stepped forward, trying though
would sooner walk away from this deadly, that may befall
They weight a multi-storey factory at any moment ... after a
few seconds at the Hall appeared very bad feeling.
Somehow, instinctively, he is clearly aware
that the rats are already quite close, although he still
Is not seen or heard them. Adding power
his lantern, Hall finally saw absolutely unimaginable Number of
these creatures. Rats quietly huddled around them like death
itself. Silently, without uttering a single sound, they are
rows of crowded each other as a sullen soldiers full of
terrible fantasy army. Hundreds of thousands eagerly burning
eyes have just devoured two knows how they got here people does
not come close to him again and for a few meters. In fact, rats
slepovato just squinted to hit them in the eyes of a bright
light lamps. The rest, omitting head, sniffing the new unknown
smells, brought here by man, whom they had never seen. This,
however, it was very comforting - the biggest rat
were absolutely incredible and chilling
blood sizes. Height they were nearly
adult knee, not to mention
on their length and the total number of
"Army", which is calculated, probably
many hundreds of thousands of these blood-thirsty killers.
Warwick saw them a second later and got
dead.
- They surrounded us, a student ... - He
still maintained composure, but his voice is
began to shake a little - affected
nervous stress.
- I see, - said Hall. - Do not stop!
They have again moved forward. Looking back
ago, Hall saw that the rats and the silently
persistently follow them. Hard waddling his fat carcass through
thick and thank God, is very durable hose spray. One of the
rats, which fell a ray lamp Hall, looked at him with
sharp-nosed its ugly face and appeared grinned mischievously
before delete it again. Now Hall and saw the bats.
The huge size of a large raven, they
hanging from the vaults vaults right over them
heads.
- Look! - Warwick said, pointing to a beam of his flashlight
at something in a few feet ahead.
It was green with mold and completely eaten by rats, a human
skull. He looked at them with their empty eye sockets, and
disclosed in a deadly grin jaw as if laughing at Two mad, going
down to the very lair of death. Next to the skull Hall saw
humerus, hip and part of the chest.
- Do not stop! - Hall again
strongly pointed Warwick nozzle in the back.
Hall felt like he seemed
something exploded inside. Something terrible
and black, overcast his mind
dark veil. "YOU BREAK THE FIRST,
MR Warwick. I am stronger than you and I MUST
Passed. - Throbbing in his brain, one single thought. - Help
me, Lord! "
They passed the bones. Rats followed
them relentlessly, without approaching, however, a certain
distance. Suddenly Hall saw something that just focused on his
view of himself. At first he did not even believe my eyes, but
he took himself in hand, I realized yet that this is not a
hallucination. What he saw was a huge twitch rat tail thick ...
with a telephone cord.
The tail hangs down from the sharp rise in
floor, which is as though the partition separating the
corridor. It was not even no partition, as it were, the barrier
height of zone. Behind him nebylo seen anything yet, but it
could be heard ... Hall is clearly heard a very heavy and
hoarse breathing of a large animal, which may be one of people
and have never seen ... The thought of This occurred
simultaneously with the Hall the idea that they in fact are only
a few feet from it and Hidden
obviously hiding from them so far unknown
beast. Some kind of crazy excitement and curiosity that has
always been extremely strongly developed in the Hall, took up
over its common sense. He realized that if he
do not see now what he wanted so much
see, he does not see this ever in
life. Roughly pushing Warwick to the barrier,
He walked up to him and he saw and, finally,
what was hidden behind him ...
- Look ... - And only managed to exhale
Warwick. He can barely control myself
and, judging by the way he staggered and rolled his eyes from
time to time, beginning lose consciousness.
Hall saw it all myself, without help of Warwick, but he could
not believe his own eyes. The barrier was a rat ... But to call
them rats, it was very difficult ... Then to that watched,
unable to stir horror, Hall, was the product of some
wild, incredibly mutations! .. Rats were
huge, just huge ... Not less
three feet in height ... They were like a huge pig. Similarity
is amplified, and even the fact that their skin was perfectly
pink and devoid of hair. These monsters were, however,
completely blind - like its flying
relatives - the bats, and the rear
paws were tiny, as in domestic dogs and completely developed.
Monster these, with horrible wheezing and groaning, writhing
and nalezaya each other, no longer hiding, frantically tried to
climb over the wall, desperately working fatty bodies, tails
and the front (very strong) paws. They were separated from the
petrified with horror the people all were just a few feet ...
To be completed ...
