"Thats what I'm getting paid for." Jason said simply. He stood up and watched Ariana take Alex away, and turned around to walk to the control room. He knew where they needed to go, unless Jonathon had changed where he hung his hat. Probably not. He was too sure no one would ever bother him to do it.
Just made navigation easier, he supposed.
Jason took helm at the controls, knowing how to operate the boat like he had been doing it all his life. He had always had a good idea of what he was doing, along with the fact that in his spare time he read about anything he could about anything he may think would come in handy. In this case, operating large sea craft was one of them. The boat saided past the docks, away from the dead city and towards another one.

Ahote and his monstrous pursuer arrive in the docks. [glow=red,2,300]Theme: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsOe37mhMWQ [/glow] I Ran threw the streets For a total of 15 minutes dodging the creature as it tore threw the Earth and lunged at me. I repeated my movements by jumping to the left every time. Each time the creature was nearly missing me. It was Like it was taunting me. I needed rest.And soon the creature wouldn't have the freedom of attack me. from all angels. I smirked as I slowed Nothing but water was before me now. two wooden walk ways expanding into the dark eerie waters. I turned my back to the Waters. producing my Px4 This Thing Would be ****ed, From me bringing it here. I know....but I was trying to buy time for Joshua and Alyssa. I Felt its Vibrations Tear threw the ground. And knew it was coming for me I Readied my self for the explosion of earth. I knew that If i went into the dark waters I was done. but This was also the same for the worm i was guessing...

The tremors stopped suddenly, sending out a small jolt as the earth's crust shifted and steeled itself. The wind ceased to blow, as if sending the message that impending doom was near. The atmosphere was still, everything was silent- the man, if he listened, could even hear himself breathe. Minutes passed- they seemed like hours as the man stood there, awaiting an attack. Within seconds, a large wave rippled through the ground, making the concrete bend and warp like water as the massive wave slit into three different ripples, spanning the ground and the concrete of the road, sending parked cars into the air as it smashed it's way towards Ahote, leaving destruction in it's wake.

I Stared the three ripples down. The ones on the right and left sending parked cars flying that roared, to a screaming stop inches from the edge of the water. I had backed myself into a corner and now I was trapped. I deserved it for being Stupid. SO this is where I was going to die. There was no way in hell I was going to live. There where three of them. My only choice was the water. But there was telling how many ghouls there were under neath the murky water And to top that off Hunters or even T-virus infested fish, My gear was on me to it would surely drag me to the bottem. Backed up a bit. And Drew my self closer to the water, Thats when I heard the moans. I peared behind me...
There must have been atleast a hundred ghouls in the water. All at the front part tring to reach me...its food. But I slammed my eyes back to the ripples. I was done for I know But maybe I could Make one of them Kill another. I Reached for my tomahawk with my free hand. This was going to be a mircale if I lived but I had to. Maybe...If there was A god out there. He'd help just this once.

As Ahote pulled out his tomahawks, the three ripples burst forth from the ground, sending a shock wave through the air and kicking up a major wall of dust, obstructing vision. The Grave Digger from before launched itself from it's hole, coiling itself up and launching itself into the air, completely surfaced- this beast was huge, at least the size of a 4-cabin freight train. As the dust cleared, the monster was no more than 5 stories above Ahote's head, it's gaping maw wide open as it soared towards him, expecting to gulp him whole

The derbies Clouded my judgment for a moment, Making me dazed the area was smoked filled and I hear the Enormous creature Coil Up High It must be story's Above my head, The shear amount of dust in the air makes to where I can't see. I close them And listen to it as it readies to strike. I'm at the edge of the docks. If it strikes me It'll go into the water. The ghouls eat anything if this thing can't swim its over for it. I tune my hearing as a lighting fast movement vibrates the air above me. I jump forward And Roll Onto my chest Getting as low to the ground as possible. Hoping To god I was Lucky enough. I didn't even think to open my eyes Knowing I'd be near the creature. The only thing in my mind was "Run". Another explosion sounds...this time its closer... The shock wave almost knocking me unconscious

The massive creature slammed into the ground near the water, digging down a few feet before the ground began to give way. Soil liquefaction began as the edge of the hole began to break away and sink into the water, making a rather large pool into the street. The Grave Digger managed to get away just in time as the concrete cracked and started to slip away- it was almost as if the entire road began to slip into the docks itself due to all the ruptures and cracks in the soil. The water quickly reached Ahote just as the monster dug itself under him, going for one last strike against him as he viciously dug upwards from underground directly beneath him.

The creature Slammed into the ground, next to the edge of the doc tearing threw a few ghouls as it worked its way back to strike ahote. He Had Risen and began to run already, But the water chased him and the Worms chasing Cracked the ground before him. It split and broke and launched pieces into the air. Ahote Was losing his footing The ground seemed to just disappear after her Ran on it...
He noticed a Fire escape Near 12 feet off the ground. It lead to the roof tops.and he wouldn't be connected to the ground. so maybe the creature Would be able to see him. As he noticed this he was refilled with energy. And Ran toward it. The Creature Chased after his movements Bringing the water with it. As Ahote raced for the fire exit. The Ground snapped, Breaking into Human sized pieces and began to lift into the air. The piece Ahote was standing on was now lifting into the air. He knew then that the creature surfaced and was Directly Behind him, It's huge mouth open and gaping. He wanted to scream, But he held it in. As he Instinctively crouched And Jumped off the flying piece of concrete. Use the forward momentum as A propulsion system.
It soared Ahote into the fire escape. His weight and speed Bending the Fire escape ladder At a angel The piece he had vaulted from was shot into the Grave diggers mouth. As it passed Ahote He could have reached out at touched it. He Then Began to climb the ladder as the creature Dug into the ground. He Raced to wards the top of the building. His body was tiring out. He needed rest.

The creature missed by mere inches, falling back into the ground and smashing deep into the concrete head first, digging deep. Obviously the creature made the fatal mistake of not taking in it's environment. As it dug underground, the road (which was by now riddled with deep holes and structurally unstable) collapsed inward, sinking a massive crater into the street, turning the avenue into a deep hole which quickly flooded with water. A loud roar echoed throughout the street as the dirt and soil became flooded and was too thin and aqueous to tunnel through effectively. The worm gave one last gurgling growl as it sunk into the ground, the rest of the concrete nearby breaking off and splashing into the crater, pinning the monster into the water as it tried to escape.

Ahote Raced up the fire escape, Making it to the top of the building. The Road was now unsafe, for at least a few blocks as he looked back to the street the holes in the road, Filling with water.But this would make this building unstable to Ahote had to move fast, get off this building He could feel The buildings Foundation being cut into by rushing water. He had to make it to another buildings roof top. but first He Turned his radio on and placed a headset on his head, And cracked over it with his Raspy, tired, voice waning in and out.
"Joshua...Ya there?"Radio click sounds over the connection. Ahote had stopped speaking and the voice receptor shut off.

A thick British accent crackled over Ahote's radio.
"Glad you made it. I'm sorry mate, but the dame didn't make it. Somethin' grabbed her- by the time I turned around, she was gone.."

Ahote Listened Intensively To Joshua's Voice. The Words Stabbing Into Ahotes Mind. It was painful To him.... He fell to his knees The Sound activating the Voice receptor. He had failed...He Punched the ground And cursed him self. The receptor picking every detail up. Ahote wanted to fade away. His body was already stressed out. But he was Pushing himself. "Joshua....Thanks for trying..to protect her..Now get out of there before you get hurt...I made a promise to you And I intend to keep it...Just like you did with me...Whats your...location..And The worms Dead. Just to let you know..." Ahote spoke remorsefully. the click of the transmitter Sounding, Ending his transmission.

A voice crackled in over Ahote's radio.
"A.. A warehouse.. Transportation Hub. I wont' be there for long- lot's of-"
A screech came in over the radio, a loud mechanical yelp- almost as if liquid got into the microphone and interfered with the reception. The person talking wouldn't recognize any disturbance due to the microphone being one-way.

Ahote picked him self up. And Looked around The transportation hub was about a mile off...It would take atleast ten minutes for ahote to get there.... He stood His body acheing, wanting to stop and rest. But ahote noticed something. The Raccon hospital was visable from here. Joshua's Voiced sounded in ahotes ear. It was stressed..and a liquid static sounded over the tansmition."Josha! Are you all right? You must have damaged the mic. Meet me at the hospital. E.T.A 30 minutes."
Ahote yelled, Makeing His way over the roof tops next to the building he was on. His at his break neck speed He was going to get him self hurt, But He was Going to Check that warehouse..He at least wanted to find her and say good bye....He wouldn't let Alyssa Become one of them...Ghouls didn't deserve her..

[Connor and Harrison enter the docks from the Apartment Complex]
Connor finally made it to the docks. The drive had been slow and parts had been grueling. He looked in the review mirror to make sure the last swarm of zombies hadn't followed them in. Shutting the truck off, he grabbed his rifle and looked over at Harrison.
He had parked at the far end of the dock... as close as he could get to first crane. In the water, tied up to the dock was a huge freighter that was loaded with metal cargo containers. Connor's idea today was to just get up to the crane and see if it still worked. They could scout the surrounding area from the crane and then give it a go at trying to load and unload a container.
He knew that they would probably had to pull in a team of engineers and some more protection but that couldn't be helped.
Today, however, it was just the two of them. "So first we get to the top of the crane and check it out. Then we can use it as a perch to sight around the area."
Last night, Connor had switched out his holographic laser target with a traditional scope. It would allow him to see farther. He put his hand on the door and opened it, immediately pointing his rifle out the door. When nothing attacked him, he stepped out and shut the door. He made his way toward the crane, scanning from side to side for anything that moved.
