Taylor was extremely stressed out,and maybe it was her fault. The security job wasn't hard to get into. Of course she would need a little more training for the things her father couldn't get into, but it was her ex-friends, her co-workers, that she was supposed to impress. They said 'oh it's old Taylors girl, a chip off the old block!' and when she fell short it was obvious they were displeased. It might have been the sole reason she opted in to transfer to shopping patrol. Babysitting the kids, the others called it. But at least it wasn't some desk job or door guard. She was off her a-game today, probably getting sick from the stress, still trying to hold it together.
It was then her attention was taken away from her stress, somewhat waking her up from her daze. The lights flickered and there was like... some loud scurrying sound...but it was coming from all around. The ceiling, floor and walls. Just then, the main lighting cut out in the hallway, still lit from the shopping places and outside, and the moment where Taylor didn't feel safe anymore. There was a scream and Taylor jerked up, looking in the way of the scream. Before she could aim her weapon or realize what the other shoppers were doing, it all changed in that second. They were everywhere. Behind her, in front of her, above her. They were killing everyone, and before Taylor could open fire one had attempted to drop down on her. She rolled back with the best of her reflexes, hitting the wall where the window is. Not worrying about if she hurt herself, her adrenaline forced her into overdrive and activated her fight motive. She opened fire, continuously pulling the trigger to release shot after shot of her rifle. Everyone was dying, or ripped a part, all that was standing were those... things! And she had to kill them before they all came after her!
"HEY this is Sergeant Taylor someone respond NOW I need back up to my location, Shopping District!!" She kept firing and they kept coming, she thought she'd run out of ammo eventually until she saw an Engineer burst from the workshop nearby, realizing they were under attack, but the Engineer killed it with their tool. 'What the hell is going on!?' "I-" before she could speak up another Security personnel came through the main door and locked it. They looked totally out of it and not realizing the situation. "HEY WAKE UP!" She yelled, and started firing again, there were so many, but it seems like they weren't coming out of nowhere in droves anymore... maybe they can be defeated? At least here?
Just then a civilian came out, being chased by one of the creatures and she aimed her weapon, "Security open fire!" she yelled, hoping to get the other persons attention as she tried to get precise shots off, not hitting the civilian, and make sure to kill whatever it is, fast.
