((I'm at work and I bore easily, but if it is just me, shouldn't advance much. Hahaha, yeah, I am still hammering out what Mike is gonna do from here.))

Mike felt no pain at his loss, just pure anger. This anger fueled him as he let out a bestial roar and bounded off after Faye with Terrance. Terrance may have been unnaturally faster than him but Terrance didn't have a d**n Machine gun/Grenade Launcher. Mike tried keeping up as best he could until he saw a room that was pitch black.

"This way!"

[GerkinMcGrimley]

Gavin quietly walks into the room while Faye's back is turned. Good she's alright. She spun around quickly holding something that Gavin at first thought was a gun.

Shit I startled her he ran to the right across the space and ducked down.

She then fumbled with something at he hip. The gun. Gavin ran across the room in case she quickly shot at the spot he was in. Then she yelled(which could be mistaken for a scream)and began coughing.

I can reveal myself without startling her

"It's me, Gavin!" he yelled and slowly walked forward. Then he began to cough. His migraine was almost gone, but of course this had to happen.

"Don't shoot....(cough)(cough) it's me...(cough)"

Gavin was sputtering and when his coughing stop and he tried to catch his breath he threw up again. No blood but a large stomach pain

Still he managed a weak smile hunched over and holding his stomach.

"Sorry didn't mean to starle you."

((Sorry raelyn I improvised))

[raelyn]

((S'good! And we'll try not to move it along too quickly ))

Faye dropped the gun in surprise when someone yelled BACK at her. Finger slipping off the lighter button, the room pitched into complete darkness. Faye looked up at him, squinting, barely able to make out his shape, both hands over her mouth, coughing uncontrollably.

Man I have horrible night vision. She heard footsteps, at least two different sets, thundering down the hallway, accompanied by yelling. "Ah...crap.." she coughed again weakly, throat sore, then shouted, "Fine! I'm fine! Gavin's here, though, I think he's sick again."

Crouching still, Faye moved towards Gavin, who seemed to be hunched over, holding his stomach. She rested her hand on his arm, turning on her lighter again. Gavin looked pale, but still smiled at her. Come on Faye, you're trying to become a doctor. Help him out.

Faye gave Gavin's shoulder another reassuring pat, and rummaged through the cabinet she'd been searching previously, pulling out the first aid kit, coughing sporadically. Walking back over to Gavin, she touched the back of her hand to his forehead. He felt quite hot. "Come on, you aren't doing too good are you?" She tugged Gavin towards the door, hoping no one had been too worried over her.

[GerkinMcGrimley]

((move it along quickly?))

Gavin stood up and his insides were on fire, but he had caused enough trouble for everyone too many times. He tried to lie. He had always been decent at it. He just hoped nobody would be too perceptive.

He dropped his hand from his stomach and immediately had to throw up. He held himself together though. "I'm fine Faye really. I feel a lot better. I think I just needed to get that out and I'd be OK" Faye was pulling him along back to the group.

He had worried her enough as it was. "C'mon Faye I'm fine there's really no need to worry anyone." he said as he grabbed her arm and stopped her. "I swear I'm f-" then he again violently threw up. Son of a B****.
he thought as he bent over and began coughing

Screw you world he thought as Faye bent over to help him move along back to the group.

[GerkinMcGrimley]

After a short distance he saw Mike. Great he's gonna be pissed that I got sick again. Gavin stuck his gun in his back pocket.

"Are you alright Mike? You tried to headbutt a door and failed." Gavin chuckled at this and his chuckling turned into violent coughing. "Mike can you please tell Faye to let go of me, I'm fine." he knew it was an almost worthless effort to lie at this point, but if he didn't try then his stupid sickness would become the main priority when a monster was after them.

[Renren]

Mia stared at the frantic people in front of her. She had been rifling through another closet using her lighter to illuminate the room when she heard them yelling and screaming, and then the sound of vomiting

"What is with these people," she muttered to herself. "Why are they so tense?"

Nevertheless she went over and stood with the rest of the group. "You okay?" she asked Gavin.

[Magus00]

Mike just nodded at Gavin, then looked at Faye. He was accustomed to night vision due to his training.

"Stay with Dave and Terrence, both of you." he said, turning away. With that, he started heading towards the entrance of the factory.

[raelyn]

Faye coughed again, voice slightly hoarse. She glanced at Mia, who'd shown up looking slightly flustered. She still kept a grip on Gavin's wrist, sensing he wasn't as "fine" as he insisted he was. I'm gonna give him some medicine or something, once we get into somewhere we can sit down. Faye had slung the first aid kit around her waist as they'd left, because it'd probably come in handy later.

"Mike, wait, at least take someone with you. Going alone isn't the best of ideas, seriously. That thing could kill you, easily."[/i]

[Renren]

"I'll go with him," Mia said, walking quickly to catch up with him. "There's nothing good out there, you know," she said to Mike once she caught up with him. "But anyway, how's your head?"

[Magus00]

Mike looked at Mia, not slowing, not smiling.

"You should stay with the rest. My head is fine. Worry about Gavin and Faye."

Thinking for a second, he stops, takes off his pack, then pulls out some camo-paint. Without a word, he puts dark paint around his eyes.

[Watson]

This was not a good situation. The group was sickening nder the pressure, and Mike was on a warpath he knew nothing of. Terrence shook his head and called after.

"Mike, killing The T-Tall One is not going to solve your problem o-or bring back the ones he k-killed!" A shudder and a cough sent shock waves up the large man's frame, and he bent over, sitting down beside Faye and Gavin on an empty cot.

He looked from one to the other. A little bit of hope held out in these people, but they had to be informed. They had to know just what they were dealing with.

We can do this...

"Listen, e-everyone..." Terrence stood up and surveyed them all, trying his best to show that he was determied. "With proper insight a-and preparation, this g-group may be able to stave off the th-thin in the woods..." He stopped again, coughing.

"But I f-feel I should tell you th-the full story, as I kn-know of it..."

[raelyn]

Faye sat next to Gavin on the cot, searching through the first aid kit for something to give Gavin to help him out, listening to Terrence calling after Mike. She was having issues talking, thanks to the incessant coughing wearing at her throat, but the coughing still showed no signs of stopping.

"Listen, e-everyone..." Terrence said, standing up. Faye looked up from the first aid kit she was rummaging through, surprised. Terrence rarely took charge like he was now. Yet, he seems to know the most about this Tall Man than the rest of us...

Leaning back against the wall, she waited for Terrence to continue, eyes hopeful. Maybe there was a way to make it out of this mess.

[Renren]

"No way," Mia said. "Especially not with you sitting here putting on war paint. Those two have other people to look after them. Now, I don't know much about you or where you came from or what your deal is. But what I DO know is while back, you freaked and tried to throw yourself out a sealed door of an extremely modified truck hard enough to knock yourself out. And now you are going to go play Rambo outside. I don't care how tough you think you are, you are NOT going out there, and you are especially not going to get rid of me."

[Magus00]

Mike barely heard any of it.

He could talk of what his mind just relayed to him but what was the point? He cared little about the story behind what everyone here called the Tall Man. IT f**ked him up royally and he would destroy it, tear it apart as it had his friends. The only problem is, he didn't want anyone getting hurt because of it.

He casually put the camo down and rummaged through his pack a little more, then, dropping his pack, he started running to the door, aiming his grenade launcher towards the ceiling of the building with the intention of causing one of the huge metal rafters to come crashing down to block the door.

Nothing would stop him. He would not let them. Neither, however, would he let them follow him only to get hurt. "Just...a...few...more...feet..."

[Watson]

'What the hell?!

Terrence caught wind of Mike's plan in an instant, throwing himself forward andusing his speed to crash heaad first into the other man. The grenade launcher was sent sputtering away across teh floor.

"You are n-not trapping us in h-here, Mike...calm y-yourself, before we have t-t-to restrain you."

The blue-eyed man didn't like doing this to someone he almost considered a friend, but to protect the interest of all the group, he knew it had to be done. Mike was crazy with revenge.

He could see it in the man's eyes.

"M-Mike...listen. That th-thing that k-killed someone y-you know, made y-your life hell...it i-isn't human, and y-you can't surprise it." He was coughing slightly, but stood up and walked over to the grenade launcher, picking it up for himself.
