You return to the interior of the bus, and immediately look up and at the emergency supplies box. You take a rock and break it open, and retrieve a flashlight and some batteries. You load the flashlight and test it. You breathe a sigh of relief when it lights up, and you head back down.
Sarah sees the flashlight and smiles. She seems happy to be a step closer to leaving the caves. You begin to lead your group into the dark when you think you hear something. Breathing. Heavy and hurried. You turn to the others, and they seem to have heard it too. Eric nervously suggests that you keep moving on, and you reluctantly agree. You head deeper and try to ignore the tension floating in the air.
Just then, Sarah screams, and you spin around to face her.
"What? What happened?" You ask, the concern in your voice obvious. "I... I saw something move in the dark. It looked like a person. It ran through your flashlight's beam and disappeared." She explains, seemingly embarrassed to be concerned with such a thing. "I saw it too..." Alyssa squeaks. Her eyes are wide and alert, and she's brought her hands to her mouth, as if to stifle a scream. You turn to Eric. "I think I saw it. I'm not sure, man. I'm just not sure."
Minutes later, you're back on the path inwards, and your foot knocks into something. You look down, and see it's a leg. A human leg. Or, rather, the chewed remains of a human leg. Sarah sees it and looks around the massive cavern room.
"What.. what if there's bears in here?" She asks, her voice trembling. "Look! Over there!" Alyssa shouts, pointing off in the distance.
You turn the flashlight accordingly and see something scurry through a hole in the metal wall. You begin to wo- wait. A metal wall? You lead the others over and check it out. Alyssa's eyes don't leave the hole, even for a second. The metal wall appears to be dividing a section of the caverns away from the rest, and a security checkpoint is installed. The hole is one of the doors in the checkpoint, with the inside filled with rocks. Sarah seems to be watching with the same intent of Alyssa. Eric, however, has found a room built in the wall next to the checkpoint, most likely a security room. He shows you, and you take the group in, Alyssa watching through the windows to the other side. You search for things, and find a flare gun, a small employee handbook, and a few flares. You thumb through the manual. The manual outlines procedures to be followed in the security check point, and a section of the caves labeled the "Quarantine Zone". It isn't described in depth, but it seems to house a dwelling of peoples indigenous to the caves, and is to be sealed at all times. It says more info can be found in a second handbook, "How to survive around the ------". You can't read the last word because of black marker covering it. You turn to leave, but look out the window with Sarah and Alyssa. Sarah asks for the handbook, and you give her it. She quickly reads through, and gives it back.
"They don't like light. That's why they ran from the flashlight. There should be a light in this room. No way would they let this place stay dark. Two of us will have to stay here while the others try to find a way to get the lights on in here. I don't see any visible switches, and the power cable runs back to the entrance. Jack, who'll be going and who'll be staying?"
You glance over the group. No matter who you take, Alyssa doesn't seem to want to move. She just stares into the "Quarantine Zone" through the dirty windows.
