Claudia was a very obliging person so she was happy to offer the bullets to then man, in exchange he came up with the idea of teaching her to shoot. That idea however terrified her, she had seen many cases of peole accitendaly shooting themselves due to the lack of experience, on the other hand it may be the only way to get out alive, she could not relay only on  Michael saving her.  

The old man mentioned the service door, and from there to the basemnt, "Why the basement? Monsters are always lurking at the basement" she thought but coud not refuse to go, nor she could let Michael go alone. "[color=6ecff6][i]A-Alright...[/i][/color]" she held the hammer with boths hands and started walking, checking every room one by one but only looking through the  small  window every door had on it, she knew those doors wounldn't lead to the basement but it didn't hurt to check if there as someone, or something, inside the classrooms. They didn't need another surprise like the one at the apartment block. 

It didn't take long before they found the door at the end of the east hallway "[color=6ecff6][i]Mr. Mich-[/i][/color]" she quickly realized shoting was no good and made a signal for the man to approach. "[color=6ecff6][i]This must be it[/i][/color]" she muttered as she tried to open, no luck. "[color=6ecff6][i]Just as you said...locked...[/i][/color]"
