Karc felt something happening to his arm, it wasn't pain it was fuzzy. Standing up he looked at Seth, he was a little bit shorter. "Thanks, I'll manage I'd just like to meet that prick that shot me." Karc looked at Seth again, "It was you wasn't it? At the bridge I mean." Karc asked he hadn't gotten a good look before but was sure it was him.
"So how do we get out of this shithole?" Karc asked "But first things first, I'm Karcentric, you can shorten it if you'd prefer, Karc works."

"Yeah, it was me. Not many Freedomers have the balls to walk into Yantar and Limansk these days, sadly." Seth replied "Hopefully, Jurgen and his folks will come to their senses and realize that shooting at Freedomers isn't the best idea in the world."
The three stalkers left the massive room, entering the hallways, "this place is clear, for the most part." Seth explained "There are a few zombies left up ahead, but they'll be easy to take care of. As for the 'prick', I shot off about half of his team when they got out of the tunnels, so I don't think he'll be much of a problem now."
Seth began hearing faint groans and moans as they walked on. "We're nearing the cut off room, guys," he said "the exit isn't far from here." peeking around the corner, he could see the grille blocking off the room, the zombies still behind it.

Karc followed listening intently, "What were you doing in Limansk? If you don't mind me asking?" Karc asked, "Good, serves them right." Karc grinned, "Serves them right for snooping about like they were." Hearing the zombie moaning Karc went quiet. He waited for Seth to look around the corner before looking for himself, there were several zombies shuffling about.
Pulling himself back Karc drew his colt reloaded and checked it. Spinning it from one finger to the other he said, "So, what's the plan?"

"Plan?" Seth raised his eyebrows "For a couple of zombies? We shoot them." he explained curtly. Pulling the stock of the SVU into his shoulder, he fired once, one of the zombies dropping immediately, and again as the rest turned around. The two zombies fell to the ground on top of the dead snorks. Only two more remained in the room.
Seth put away his rifle, pulling out the pistol instead. "We're going to have to storm them, as I'm assuming no one has grenades here. They're easy targets, and their aiming is crap, although they can soak up a lot of bullets before going down. Aim for the heads, it kills them instantly. We run out on my mark... one... two... three!"
Seth leapt out of cover, aiming his pistol with both hands, and fired.

Darting around behind Seth, Karc lined up the head of the other zombie and fired, the shot echoed and was followed by silence again. Holstering his weapon, checking over the corpses quickly Karc decided against grabbing the worn out rifles and shotguns the zombies carried, he checked his PDA "Hey! That stash is near by." Karc exclaimed "It's somewhere just ahead."
Karc moved into the room, kicking a snork out of the way he made it to an elevator shaft, by instinct he pressed the button and looked up. "More ladders." he sighed, "I'll go first." He climbed up the ladder to about half way, looking about he spotted a small shaft on the opposite wall, "Hey I think I found that stash!" Edging his way over to it he pulled it open, there was a P90 and a LR300. He passed the LR to Torch, "I hope you don't mind? I've wanted to have one of these for a very long time."
They continued up the ladder emerging finally into a large room, several zombie where dead. Moving around them they came to some stair, "How far under the ground is that lab?" Karc asked as they went the stairs. Finally sunlight streamed in, sweet sunlight. "We made it. Where do we go next? We had some stuff to sell, including a bloodsuckers ugly mug."

Seth considered their situation for a moment. "We'll head over to the mobile lab. I don't know whether those army bastards are still there, but they're heavily wounded at any rate, there's three of us, we have more than decent armament now, as well as the element of surprise. I also know that Vasily, the leader of the ecologists is a good man, and so is Burner, the merc currently in 'treatment' there."
He started off at a quick walk across the barren compound. The dead pseudogiant had been dragged off by the scientists, a large bloody smear across the concrete evidence of its departure.
"I'm planning on taking an expedition to Pripyat," Seth continued as he walked "and I wouldn't mind having a few extra guns with me. I have two of my best men waiting by the Dead City, as well as the merc and scientist I mentioned in the mobile lab. With any luck, I'll convince Jurgen to go with us as well, although he tends to stay at the Dead City. Would you folks be interested in going?" If the army was already scouring Yantar, it wouldn't be long before a Duty task force arrived as well, he figured. A few extra stalkers wouldn't hurt.

"Ok sounds good I can get rid of this useless AK. I never met Burner, he's a merc you say? Strange, he must of slipped out of the Dead City rather soon after I arrived." Karc looked at the smudges leading to the lab. "What the hell was that?" He asked unable to veil the disgust in his voice.
"You planning on going any further north? I intend to go to the centre of this place. I can't speak for my friend here but I'd say say yes, we're interested at any rate, any work that pays is good work matey." They were walking along an old road towards the lab. "I don't mean to offend but your really far from your base aren't you? What brought you here in the first place? Isn't Duty in charge around here?" They were nearing the lab, "Quiet. There is some sort of argument going on at the lab, Karc and Torch knew one of the voices very well, holding his new gun at the ready he looked to Seth "The bastard who attacked us is there" he whispered...
