"Looks like we're in the clear." Vik replied, "Might want to block the door up into the house though. Not sure a post-nuclear lock won't be rusted to all hell. Monsters could bash it down if they wanted." He said while grabbing some heavy things to put in front of the door.

"We're all in, let's go!" John shouted above the roars and growls of the Watchmen. They were so close now! He kept his shotgun aimed up at Lauren, waiting for any of the beasts to attack.

As soon as Lauren turned her back, one of them dived on her from above which then pinned her to the ground. She drew her knife from the strap on her boot and drove it into the mutant's lower jaw as it went to sink it's teeth in, and with a shotgun blast from John the creature fell limp. Lauren pushed it off and got her SMG back, then ran back into the cellar. As the cellar door was closed she sighed heavily.

"Bloody hell... That bastard nearly tore my face off!"
