Holding his breath underwater he reached out with one hand to keep it's mouth away from him. It being so close the teeth his fingers were starting to get cut. Reaching into his side quivver he pulled out two arrows and stuck it in the stomache. He felt it freeze up as he reached in and began pulling out it's innards. It struggled alot but soon died off and he came to the surface. He instantly recognised the smell of the poison. He then pointed ahead. "Move! I have a plan." As Argonat ran he turned the gutted glimmer over. Holding his breath he began looking over its innards.
Finding the stomache he took his arrow and pierced it and it too began releasing gas. Once that was done he ran to catch up with Argonat. Though she was stronger he was faster due to his phasique and he pulled her along. "The gas from it's boils are toxic but when combined with the gases from it's stomache it creates a flamibal salution. The minute those idiots fire at us..." Suddenly he heard a gun-shot and a large explosion. He then took Argonat and dunked her under the water as the flames past. After getting up and spitting up water he looked back. A cave in had blocked any more people from following.
"We need to get to the labs and destroy the information before the Sincell get it. Simply having a creature is not enough. They have a vehicle though and will get their in no-time. Your the soldier...any ideas?" He then walked up to the wall and studied the sewer map.

Arognat sat up, waist deep in sludgy water. She was still having a difficult time seeing as she felt around. She'd managed to drop her flashlight while running as well. That didn't help any at all. "It's dark. Kinda hard to shoot and protect ya know..." she grumbled. Sighing, she rested a hand onher chin in thought.
"Well," she began, feeling a chill coming on. Soon after she sneezed pretty loudly and started coughing. "Ugh, well, ngh, yugh...Well Umbrella labs are always underground so we're pretty much set to finding it where we are. Regaurdless of whether they getthere ofirst or not, I'll make sure they don't leave alive.." she said rather sure of herself.
"For now, bring that map with you. And keep your guard up. We ain't got time to study it right now. We'll have to start moving. Surely you can read the map and point out where to go next right? Right. So let's get moving, Charlie," she told him, walking off ahead. Truth was, she didn't have a plan. She was more recognized for making things up as she went. Her missions were always a success anyway.
As the two trudged through the sewage water, Arognat kept her gun up and pointed forward with one hand and her comabt knife in the other. She left the lighting and directing to Charles though. The rounded, brown and moldy walls had emitting the echoing of rushing water and creaking. Not to mention it washot and humid inside of there. The climate, plus the musty smell, was enough to gag even the most tolerant man.
She's smelled worse though. Arognat was even sure Charles had if he'd been as experienced as he said with the undead walking about. Eventually the came to a three way halt. There were three tunnels that were dark and muggy.
"So which way?"

He looked at the map. Turned it around and squinted. "Well unless we want to go under the water the right tunnel leads to the dance club and the left leads to the church." He then looked at her. "Their experiments required pubesent children. They 'adopted' them from third world countries and placed them in this city. They placed various things teens enjoy so they wouldn't notice when one or two of thier numbers dissapeared." He then thought for a moment. "If they get to the lab first they could rig the old system to send out the data using the net. If we can get to a terminal I might be able to disable the system. It's not a permanent solution but should buy us time." He then pointed right.
"The club is the most likely to have a computer." He then started heading down the tube. "That will stop them technologically but we need to cripple their numbers to be able to even reach the labs. This network only connects the city." Shining the light around the tunnle he then snapped his fingers. "Maybe we can get the BOW's to do the dirty work for us. Here they were developing a BOW called a 'cleaner'. They were designing it to cleanup biohazards, infected creatures and any other organisms in the area to prevent information from getting out. If we can find a way to infect one or more of their numbers, and IF thier are any more roaming the island they will descend on them like wasps. They have improved mental capabilities and can use firearms. Probably one of the BOW's the Sincell are interested in."

Arognat raised a thin brow at him, mumbling afew explicitives beneath her breath. "Yes, magnificent idea. Let's get all the Sincell Soldiers infected by releasing a B.O.W. Great," she said sarcastically. As they went along the tube-like drainage system, Arognat couldn'thelp but wonder whatthe hell that cluttering noise was. It sounded like footsteps but they were coming from the other side of the wall.
Reaching a hand out, she grasped onto Charles' shoulder, stopping him abruptly. "Hey, I think we've got company," she whispered. As soon as those wordsleft her mouth, there was some talkingthat echoed inside the sewer walls.
"Alright men, the chief said they were last seen diving into the waters. They could be anywhere in these sewers. That explosion that sounded off destroyed five of our troup. Watkins, you and Jared take the first entry. Jay, Bailey, you take the middle. Harry and I'll take the one on the far right. Move out."
Arognat glanced back at Charles again. "You go on ahead. I'll take care of this."

Not knowing exactly what to do Charles didn't argue and took off down the sewer. It wasn't long until he reached the end of the road where he found a wall full of valves and dials and a port-hole up above. The ladder was up and preventing him from climbing up. He tried jumping but it was still out of reach. Looking around he soon spotted a crowbar which he used to reach up and attempt to pull down the ladder. But not to his suprise it was rusted stuck.
"Dangit." He muttered looking up at the latter. Soon he began hearing firing coming from down the sewer. With one giant leap he caught the bottom rung with the bent part of the crowbar and used his weight to pull it loose. In the end he fell flat on his back on the cement. "Owww." He groaned getting up and rubbing his back. Taking the crowbar with him he climbed up the ladder and used it to move the sewer head. "We're in!" He yelled down the sewer. Upon climbing up he was suprised to find that it smelled worse in the dark dance clun then the sewers. Upon moving his flashlight across the room he discovered why as a number of withered walking corpses littered the room.
"How the heck are these things still standing?"

Arognat had cautiously ran down the sewer pipe, holding her shotgun in both hands. She'd already loaded it and pumped it, but she was pretty sure it would only attract the others, so once she was near, she grasped ahold of one of them, pulling them into the shadows of the sewer and grasped ahold of his head with one hand and held his mouth shut with the other before firmly and abruptly snapping his neck.
The body went limp and she carefully laid it down. Hopping over that one, she tried sneaking up on the next one, but one ofthe soldiers behind had grasped ahold of her from behind. Another soldier shined his light on her, running towards her. The woman kicked her legs up, wrapping them around his head and throwing him aside. When he flew back, he set off two rounds, one nipping into Arognat's arm.
"f**k!" she swore, slamming her head back, headbutting the man in the mouth. He stumbledback, but kept her in his grasp. She slammed her weight backwards until he hit against the wall. Slamming back again, forced him to release her. She picked up the shotgun and butted him in the face once more with said weapon.
The fallen man attempted to get up, but Arognat quickly unsheathed her combat knife, grasping onto his shoulders from behind and slicing through his throat.
Her bullet wound was burning like crazy, but she had to finish her mission...
Two more sets of steps pitter pattered through out the tunnels. She wasn't sure which way they were coming from so pressed her back against the walls, waiting for them to appear. Bailey and Harry had made their way through, looking over the bodies of their fallen allies.
"f**k, they got to them...They must've escaped ahead! Come on!" Bailey ordered running ahead with his weapon in hand. Harry followed close behind.
Arognat stuck her head out and glanced at them, quietly following after them. Without noticing, she'd accidentally slipped a little on some of the greenish brown scum littering the floor. Making a loud clacking noise with her boots heels, both men spun around.
Aiming his gun at her, she grasped onto the nose of the gun, forcing it to point upward. The man tried to fight with her over it, while Harry decided to take this to his advantage and shoot at her. Fortunately when she noticed his sudden reaction, she spun around, pulling Bailey infront of her, using him as a human shield.
Ratatatatata!!
Harry's eyes widened as he'd seen what he'd unintentionally done. While taking it all in, Arognat threw the corpse on him, focring him to catch it and quickly glance back at her. She brought her shotgun up again, then sent the butt into his face, the impact breaking his nose.
The man fell back, the body ontop of him. She slung her weapon over her shoulder and pulled her handgun out, sending a round between his eyes. Panting, she looked back up, holding onto her wounded arm.
She reached for the ladder and began climbing up. Having a little trouble pulling herself to the top, she groaned out to Charles.
"A little help...please..."

Charles looked down and nodded. "Y-yeah, sure." Reaching down he grabbed her arm and pulled her up into the back room of the nightclub. He then pointed out the window facing the dance floor. "Look at that!" He said in amazment pointing at the zombies. Unlike most they were simply standing in place not moving. "It's incedible. I've never seen anything like it. Most undead only have a lifespan of a few years but these have survived over a century." Looking closer he put his hand on the glass. "They are over decayed so have not fully survived the test of time...they must be in some sort of self preserving catatonic sleep...concerving all of their energy most likely to re-activate it when they experience the first sense of a living presence." He then looked back at her.
"We walk in there and they'll sense us. All of those zombies and years of hunger will be released upon us...and we can't go back down." Looking around the nightclub he spotted the DJ booth on the second level. "I've only got one idea. If I can get to the dj booth I might be able to turn on the lights and speakers...use them to disorient the zombies so we can escape. Problem is once those comandos hear it they will be making their way here too. Any thoughts?"

Arognat was trying to gauze her arm up. The bullet would have to wait to come out now. Sighing, she glanced out the window at the said dance floor, examining the zombies. It was pretty bizarre. She wouldn't say fascinating, but more like, 'annoying'. If they managed to not turn to dust by now they must've had some other things goin' for them.
"Don't worry about Sincell goons. I'll keep that in check. Disorienting the zombies with lights and speakers thing...I thought they only hunted using scent? I just kinda figured they'd know the difference between us and them," she began.
It was more curiosity and the expectancy of Charles answering that for her. Before he did so, she tied up the loose ends of the gauze and put aside her firstaid kit.
It was pretty stuffy and humid inside the backroom. There was even a really, moldy must wafting around the room. Dust covering just about every inch of the place and papers strewn about. She doubted any of the files were useful, however.

Charles smiled and pointed at Arognat. "You've been doing your homework." He said looking around. "However, when one sense is overwhelmed by stimuli the others are ignored. If we stimulate the eyes and ears it wont be able to smell us." Taking a look around he soon found he could access a second story window by climbing the stove and refrigerator. Find a good spot to ambush the Sincell and keep still as I make some noise. Once the troops outside hear it they come in where they get attacked by you and the undead." He then began climbing the various apliances.
"Once we've taken care of the unit we can steal that vehicle of theirs and head to our next destination." He then looked at her. "And no, I don't know where that is yet. Still working on it." Picking up the quiver holding his arrows he used it to bash in the window which quickly gained a bit of attention. "Best get set up, Once I readh the booth the music starts." He said jumping through. Once on the second story he was faced with two zombies staring him down. Taking the rod from his back he stuck the end of the cattle prod into the first body frying it while piercing the second one in the head at point blank range with his crossbow. Catching his breath he quickly headed down the hall.
It wasn't long until he found the dj booth. The moment he got there he could hear moans coming from down the hallway. He instantly shut the door and locked himself inside. Not wasting any time he took out his computer and hooked into the terminal. "No power...d@mn!" He started typing madly as he patched in his earpiece to Arognats radio. "The power's out all over town. No juice no music, no lights." Soon he found a glimmer of hope. "Wait...theres some power left in the emergency batteries powering the elevators. I'll redirect it but will only give us a few minutes. Within a few seconds the terminal glowed to life. Charles smiled. "Excellent." He instantly started pressing random buttons causing lights to spin and blink, music to blare and steam to be shot across the room. "I'll be your eye in the sky. I've got your back."

Arognat gave him a thumbs up as she pulled herself up into an opened vent that overlooked the only entrance possible for the soldiers to get through from where they were down below. Once the music started blaring through out the vicinity, she could here those all too familiar moans and groans. There was scratching and shuffling as well as some mild thumping. Pushing her mouth to the radio, she scanned the room below.
"How's things looking out there, Charlie?" she asked.
As if on cue, she saw something moving downward from the door that lead to the sewers. Not too soon afterwards, she saw a head rear itself through, looking back down as he placed his weapon up on the floor.
"This way! Come on!" he told the othersbelow him. Arognat grinned and shifted around, pulling both arms out of the vent, grasping onto her handgun. She aimed carefully at the spot between his visor and his jaw before sending off a round in the face. Blood shot out and he went falling backward, dropping his weapon and keys.
"They're ambushing us!" Another called. Arognat jumped back down, her foot slamming the door shut above them. She quickly grabbed ahold ofthe latch and locked it. Skimming through the room again, she ran over, pushed her shoulder up against the desk and began forcing it over the entire trap door.
There was some shooting from down below, little dents appearing all over the metal door. The desk was still in tact and a bit heavy. It should hold up though. The woman grabbed ahold of the keys, shuffling through them and smirking again.
"Alright, Charlie, here I come." With that said, she followed after him, keys in one hand, gun in the other.

OOC: Well Charles left her in that room behind the dance floor. I figured she climbed onto crap and got into a vent to hide herself. Soldiers were coming through the place they came through, which is kinda how you made it sound in your post.
So she kicked their asses, took some keys in hopes of one of them useful and then blocked the other from further access to where Charles and her are, to buy time.
So now she just kinda started following after Charles. Going through the way he went.
EDIT: Woah, I just realizedthe last thing she said sounded like she was gonna kill him. Um that's not what I had intended at all. ^_^;;

As soon as Argonot showed up in the room he looked at her crossly. "What are you doing in here! The Sincell are about to break down the front door. I thought you were going to take them out." Frowning he shook his head. "Now all that will happen is they'll walk in and mow them all down before heading back to that jeep. Then we're back where we started." As he continued typing on the computer he brought up the security cams. On the exterior he watched as aan armed team approached from the road. Down below he watched as the men in the sewers tried to make their way in. "Okay, maybe I can buy us some time." He said.
Typing in a few commands he had the exterior doors lock just before the team reached the door. Going into another program he accessed the plumbing and began flushing all the systems at once in order to flood the tunnels below. "I learned to hack after it was required to gain access to resources inside the companies complexes in Spain. I'm not skilled but I know a few tricks." He then looked at Argonot. "Now, I need you to do something to take care of the team coming in through the front. The lights and zombies will distract them, I'm sure you could make quick work of them."

Arognat shot a glare at Charles. "Oh well forgive me for keeping our asses from being ambushed. I'm so f**king sorry!" she yelled, growlng a little. She went through her packs and reloaded her shotgun. Pumping it, she looked at him from the corner of her eye as he spoke to her.
"Yeah yeah, I'll make due...I always do..." she grumbled under her breath as she tossed him a set of keys and started for the front door. It wasn't hard slipping passed the zombies considering there was some tables she jumped on and over to avoid going through the crowd of undead.
Upon reaching the doors, they flung open, five other soldiers breaking through with weapons and body armor. Groaning, she slipped behind an overturned table and pressed her back against it.
"s***! What the hell are those things?! This ain't right!" one of them said, staring in horror at the exremely rotten corpses that still had movement.
"Who gives a damn! Kill them sonsab*tches and save one to take back for further observation!"
"Yes sir!"
Arognat swore under her breath as rounds were shot off. Apparently they hadn't seen Charles and they probably assumed one of the zombies set off the lights and music. Hopefully Charles was ducking behind something so it wouldn't blow their cover.
Waiting a little longer, she heard some of the men's guns click. A few explicitives being used by them as they went to reload, Arognat took full advantage and shot up from her hiding spot and started pulling the trigger to her shotgun at the nearby two. The impact of the spray effect ripped apart their kevlar vests as they were thrown backwards, slamming against the wall.
"What the hell?!" Another yelled from upfront. He and another spun around, trying to shoot at her. The dark skinned woman leaped behind the bar counter, loud rattling of bullets against metal sounded throughout the area.
Another click and she abruptly got to her feet and started sending off another round at him, knocking him back into the remaining undead.
"Wha?! ARGH! HELP ME! HELP!" he screamed as he'd been pulled down by several hands. The other man stared in disbelief whilst the last man shot at Arognat, ducking behind another table.
"Kelley! Help me kill this b*tch, will ya?!" the man in hiding bellowed.
Kelley, was too busy trying to pick up his fallen comrade who wasn't bitten or dead yet. "But sir!"
"God dammit! Get your ass over here!" he shouted again.

"Nice..." Charles said with a smile. He then spotted where the two remaining soldiers were. "Try this out." Pressing a button all lights shut off except for one light that pointed at the two men and started blinking causing a strob-light effect blinding them. With the two motionless Charles rested his crossbow on the edge, opened the scope and took aim. First he targeted the leader, after turning the dial on the scope twice he pulled the trigger and sent a bolt directly through his eye. The mans body barely felt the impact and the man stood dead on his feet for a few seconds. In that time he sent a second through the other mans head and they both fell at the same time.
"Arrow....yeah that works heh heh...Arrow. Meet me out front I'm taking the roof. I'm setting this place to go into lockdown in three minutes. See you there." After programming the security system he gathered up his supplies. Turning he failed to realise that there were zombies clawing on the other side of the door. "Not good." Though he normally didn't result to brute force he had no choice.
Grabbing the handle he turned it, reered back and busted it open sending the two zombies back. He then broke in a dead run for the emergency exit. After opening it up the cool air of the island hit him unexpectedly. Finding the ladder he slid down to street level and inched around the side looking over the streets. When it looked clear he ran to the entrance and awaited Argonat.
