Cyrus sat on the ground, grasping onto his arm and thought for a moment. He'd only been in the city for a little while. He wasn't exactly sure what's where. The tanned man shook his head, glancing over at Vincent.
"No, I don't know where we should head afterward. I know I want out of the city. Maybe the safest way through and out would be the sewers..." he thought aloud. Quickly thinking against it, he turned his eyes onto the seats ahead of him.
"No, that's no good...I've seen monsters in the water, no doubt there'd be monsters down th--" before he could finish his sentence, the entire subway came to a halt, throwing everyone on board forward in a tumbling motion.
Abby screamed and covered her head, whilst her father held onto her tight and winced. Keeping their heads down, he looked around suddenly.
"What the hell was that all about?" he said through clenched teeth. Outside of the subway there was a large, slimy, worm-like body slithering in and out of enormous holes that were scattered around the subway walls. Part of it's body was wrapped around the subway, leaving a slimy trail all around it.

[Update. I has job. RP going slower now]
"Jeeeeeeeeeeeeez man! Look at all that transparent sh*t!" Vincent jumped up and ran to the end of the train, looking at the windows and seeing them covered in a thick layer of goop. However, it looked like whatever made it was being well hidden. But through the blurry mess, he could see that the creature was in fact wrapping itself around the car.
The windows were staying in tact for the most part, it wasnt able to get inside unless it could fit through the top. "Lets roll out the back, were dead in here if we stay..." Vincent kicked open the back door, and then jumped onto the tracks. But as he turned around, he saw the thing start to shake the car like it was nothing. "This aint no good, man..."

Cyrus leaped out of the back door with his daughter in his arms as they ran a good distance. The subway had a long body wrapping around it and as soon as it was covering it, it constricted theentire train, crushing it.
Cyrus couldn't believe what the hell he was seeing. Suddenly the tunnel began to shake and clumps of brick had burst open, alarge head darting out with a widemouth and rows of sharp teeth.
"Sonuva b*tch!" he yelled, pushing Vincent back and movingout of the way as the worm-like creature had crashed it's head into the wall on theotherside of them in an attempt to eat them whole. It roared and it's long body began sliding through the newly created tunnel.
There were two ofthose damned things! Cyrus look back and started running that way. "Come on! Unless you want to be worm chow!" he told Vincent as he fled. The entire tunnel had began shaking violently, another large worm training through the walland blocking their escape. The survivors slid to a halt and stared wide eyed back and fourth between the monsters.
"This isn't good..." Cyrus breathed,pulling his fire axe out.

When the second creature burst from the tunnel, Vincent knew things were going to be getting pretty ugly. But as they ganged up on him and Cyrus, Vincent ran back down onto the tracks, crossing onto the other side. By the time Cyrus had made it onto the opposite platform with his daughter, Vincent was already climbing on top of the car again. The further was impossible to access from the ground, so he would need to jump across.
"Hang on, go back to the otherside, lure them onto the tracks!" Vincent had seen water leaking from the tunnel, spraying onto the tracks. Jumping onto the control car, he leaned down to the side, and kicked off the exit light, pulling the cables loose. After Cyrus and his daughter were on the platform, Vincent threw the cables down into the tracks, and then jumped onto the platform with them. In that instant, one of the worms made there was toward them. But Vincent had shot the electric unit on the car, causing an electric flow through the cable and to the watered tracks, electricuting the worm. "How ya like that, b*tch!?"
The other one was on the opposite side, unable to reach them passed the tracks, and soon found himself leaving the area down the terminal. Vincent knew hed be back for round two, he could just feel it. Looking at the tunnel the creature had made before, and knew it would have to lead to the surface at some point. After catching his breath, Vincent sat down against the terminal wall, and motioned toward the worm-made tunnel. "Guess were gonna have to take the shoelace express..."

Cyrus had held onto his daughter tightly and shook his head, looking over at the worm hole. It was probably a stupid idea, but it was also probably their only chance to escape. They'd have to evade the damned worms though. That was gonna be tough. Deciding he should speak up, the man looked over at Vincent as of now.
"Yeah, that seems like our only option. We should try to be extra cautious and probably travel through other tunnels if those ugly bastards find us. I'm all out of ammunition for my handgun too, so I'll have to rely on my axe," he explained, raising up the blood encrusted weapon.
He was fairly good with using it seeing as how he was use to breaking down barriers and doors of all sorts to get to innocent fire victims. As he waited for Vincent to catch his break, he ruffled his daughter's hair. The young girl hadn't been paying too much attention on her father. She seemed more interested in the fact that she was noticing a slight vibration and some ripples in the murky puddles of water they were in.
"Daddy...?" she said lowly. Before anyone could respond, the worm's head had burst through a hole little ways away from them, slithering rapidly and smoothly toward the three with it's mouth hanging open.
"s***!" Cyrus swore, swinging his axe at it in a desperate attempt of re-directing it. The blade had ripped through it's smily flesh and forced it to curve around the group before slamming into a subway cart and ripping it to shreds. It was wounded, but not enough to kill it.
Before they realized it, it was back into it's worm hole.

Vincent had listened to Cyrus speak, but his attention was also on the vibrations. It all happened so fast, and before he knew it, the worm was back in his hole. Vincent held the magnum forward, moving toward the hole. It would take the beast a little time to turn around inside there, so they could take this opportunity to dive in and make some headway.
"Aiight, lets bounce!" Without waiting, Vincent ran into the tunnel, moving at a rapid pace through the clostriphobic opening. The inside had a pretty complex crossing pattern to the tunnels, meaning finding an exit was going to be a but easier said then done. After Cyrus and his daughter followed him down the stretch, he noticed a four way split. But on top of that, there was a loud shaking coming from one of the tunnels.
After identifying the dangerous tunnel, he jumped into another one, motioning to Cyrus. As they got inside, the worm moved by them, scraping dirt against the sides of the whole place. "Bet you could slice that motherf*ckers head clean off with that axe of yours..."

Cyrus held onto his daughter's arm with one hand and tightly clenched his fingers around the axe in the other as the giant worm moved passed them. Cyrus heard Vincent comment about using his axe to butcher the worm. As easy as it would sound, the worm's skin was pretty tough and thick, not to mention he'd need a really good advantage.
Looking down at his daughter he sighed. "Maybe, but I can't risk it unless I get an upper hand. Otherwise I'll be worm chow. No pun intended," he told Vincent as they pressed on through the tunnels as quietly as they could.

Just as Cyrus finished, Vincent heard more rumbles from ahead. Quickly weaving into another tunnel as the worm passed by once again, he hoped that Cyrus had done the same inside another. Surely enough, they moved up the same tunnel again, this time with more confidence in their footsteps.
"We keep this up, there aint no way that bi*ch can catch us. Gotta find a way to block em off, then hit em straight on." After trecking and dodging for another good five minuts, they came across a larger opening in the tunnels. This was leading up to lower portion of the subway control area. After climbing out into the steel floor, Vincent helped Cyrus and his daughter up into the room. But the worm was nowhere to be heard, maybe it was above ground getting a catch of the people above ground who attacked earlier. "Lets get outta here, man, before that thing comes back."

Cyrus took a good look around and spotted an emergency exit in the control room. He sighed relieved and took his daughter's tiny hand into his own as he walked behind Vincent toward it. "Sounds like a good plan...Man, if this is ever over, I'll never go into a subway ever the hell again," he muttered.
Pushing on the steel bar of the door, the door opened and sounded off a blaring alarm throughout the vicinity. "Ah s***!" Cyrus swore again as the ground began to shake and tremeble violently. A loud swishing sound was heard indicating that a worm was on it's way.
Scooping up his daughter the three ran off, slamming the door shut as they did so. Behind them they could hear a loud crash from behind the door. "Let's get the hell out of here!" Cyrus said as they made their way to a flight of stairs that would surely take them to freedom.
((I'll let you decide wherethey end up.))

Vincent aimed his .44 back down the staircase behind Cyrus, but the worm seems like it couldnt follow them up through the thick cement outline through the walls. They mustve been near the waterside of the city, the temperature of the air gave this away aswell. As they all reached above ground, Vincent looked around the area.
It didnt seem to have any undead around the water front, they all were probably still deeper inside the city hunting down survivors instead of trying to leave. However, this was the best idea he could come up with, being on the waterside. Grabbing a boat would be a great idea, no infected out on the water. "Lets get us a boat, man. Take us away from this sh*thole of a city." But he never got his hopes up, the worst was always going to come.

Eli turns on his flashlight equipped to his gun and begins to walk, he knew the light from the sky would disappear as he got deeper into the subway station. He already heard to moans of zombies so he kept his gun up high. He's begin to look for a door or something that could lead him into a station and see if this approach would work. As he shines the light though on the walls he caught the attention of a group of about 6 zombies. They charged and he quickly dropped 5 with head shots, firing 6 shots and kicks the last one in the head and drops a strong knee onto it's head. "A door." he says while shinning his light onto it. He opens it up and begins to walk, he finds a resting station for the conductors. He locks all the doors and lays down on a couch closing his eyes.
Eli wakes up 5 hours later (It's 12:00 at night) to banging on the door, the bastards found him. Vending machines were broken open so he quickly grabs and drinks a bottle of water, eats a two bags of doritos and picks up a payday bar. Before heading back into the dark subway station he spots a 53 inch television, which makes him think... so he opens the door and sees about 17 zombies flooding into the room. He tosses the tv at one, destroying his brain on impact, he then begins to throw various items at them. A water bottle, a remote control, a packet of train tickets, anything that'll knock em back or down. He picks up a broom and knocks 5 down and begins to kick and bat the others in his path making his way into the hallway heading to a main station. He heads upstairs and sees that he's now downtown, staring at Sears tower. It's almost pitch black so this part is going to be a REAL challenge.
