((the chopper left to go back to base until we need it.))
carlos armed the machine gun in the window. he told a teamate to take it over and walked to the armory. the door was locked so he bashed it open. what he saw was terrifying. "uh, guys." the wall seemed to have been torn out. a dead hunter lay there. everything in the room had been thrown about and the window was open. a dead leaper was hanging from the sealing. a rope tied around its neck. "i think i know where the amalgator got its weapon."
"this hanger probly got infected and killed himself before he became complete leaper." carlos went around the bodies. his other teammate threw up in a corner after smelling the bodies. carlos grabbed what remained of the weaponry. just pistol ammo and grenades. a saw ((light machine gun, not wwod cutting tool)) was hidden under a loose floorboard, along with 2 m16's , a satchel charge, and a crate of ammo.
"Hazmats please report sitrep over." The operator repeated into the com. No reply. "Sir. No contact."'
Frank nodded. "Keep trying." (Changing his rank to commander.)
"Sir." The operator tries again.

The Screams
When the screams fill the air;
Only time to run in fear,
No other option but to hear,
We will never march from here.
We wait till daybreak comes;
So we can have another run,
Dodging death from every one,
And watching time pass with our fun.
Our blood curdles from the fight;
When our bodies quiver with pure fright,
We hope the daybreak lasts all night,
When the creatures come out to bite.
But night will fall again;
The screams return and cause our strain,
They fill the air with death and pain,
Life and death are both the same.
The screams.

The shrieks fill our minds. Pain and suffering are our play.
Kat picked up her helmet and responded. "We're here, This is Sargent Sands. Lt. Mirez has been bitten. I've given him a small dose of the antidote that I had in my pack. He seems fine for now. We've found Jacob and some of the survivors...There are new breeds here." She paused and put her finger under Rek's jaw to feel his pulse. *not heard over radio* "How are you feeling Rek?"
