He was tackled to the ground and hit in the head.  Struggling against his assailant, he managed to break free after knocking him unconscious.  He looked down at his doppelganger for a moment wondering if they shared any similarities if there was something in the alternate that wasn't in him.  He shook his head as the sound of hissing alarms grew louder and he ducked into the office heading the way he hoped the others had gone.  When he closed the door, he struck it with two fingers and a seal appeared.

"That should keep them out for a bit," he said making his way towards the basement.  Caleb fought his way towards the basement, leaving a trail of unconscious bodies as he eventually came on his team, his friends, and his boyfriend.  The word made him work harder to keep them protected.  Caleb slid to a halt just as the mob was approaching Sam, Ariana, Alex, Jeremy, and Ambrose.  Creating a seal, he produced it swiftly blocking the way for the oncoming mob of vicious alternates.

Sam approached the door and looked at it for a moment.  "Give me five minutes," she said.  She didn't have the perfect history like she put on daily, but she would never tell unless it was pulled out of her.  Alex stepped back and Sam went to work.  Caleb looked back at them.

"Hurry up," he said causing Ariana to turn around.  She hadn't even noticed Caleb had arrived, none of them did, but she was glad he was there except she could see blood slowly falling down his face.  Nonetheless, he kept the seal up as Sam worked as fast as she could.  Just as she managed to open the door, she turned around only to see Caleb tackled to the ground, the alternate who had tackled him was her.  She watched as the girl bit into Caleb's shoulder causing him to scream out.  Alex was there in a second punching the girl and grabbing Caleb.  

"Go Go Go!," Ariana yelled as she moved to help Caleb feel in pain from her leg as Ambrose held her. The seal broke and the mob rushed towards them, but the door slammed behind them.  They had made it, they were safe for now.

"Illumose," Sam said softly creating a large ball of light.  Pounding could be heard on the other side of the door, but Jeremy quickly created a seal with Ariana's help while Alex sat Caleb down on the ground.

"I'm fine," Caleb said.

"That bitch took a chunk out of your shoulder Caleb, you're not fine, you're losing blood."

"Just close it," Caleb said as Sam turned to him.  

"Are you sure?"

"If you don't he will bleed to death," Alex said.

"I'm fine, stop overreacting," Caleb said as he went to stand but a wave of dizziness overcame him and he stumbled.  

"You're not fine, you're stubborn as hell, sit here," Sam said as she examined the bite.  "That's very strange, there's some type of coagulant around the bite area, it's causing him to bleed more."

"Great, fucking GREAT!" Alex said.  "Can you heal it?" 

"I can try, if not we will have to wrap it and continue on."

The entire time Caleb was looking at Ambrose wanting to apologize.  He hadn't expected to get injured so soon into the mission, and he was sure it wasn't over yet.  "You guys I'll be fine, try to heal it and if not wrap it and let's get moving."

Sam nodded and began trying to heal the wound.  The more she tried the more the coagulant seemed to resist the healing.  "It's not working," Sam said sighing as she ran a hand through her hair and cursed.

"Then wrap it, I'll be alright.  Let's find this fucking blade." Caleb said as Alex stepped up and ripped his shirt wrapping it around Caleb's shoulder to at least slow the flow of blood.  When he was done he looked into Caleb's eyes.

"If you feel faint don't overdo it, we will figure out how to get back, somehow."
