Rodzaju: With a final warning to Coleman to "watch where you swing that axe!", I open the Toilet Supply closet door..... Gathering up enough courage to open the TSC door, you motion for Coleman to stop wandering around the Bunkroom aimlessly & to come over to where you are. With a nod he joins you next to the door to the toilets area, and you both head into the bathroom.

JoeSapphire: With the acknowledgement that Staines is ready for action I ready myself by the Toilet Supply closet door in order to assist him.
Entering the bathrooms with weapons ready, you approach the supply closet door with some slight apprehension remaining. As you do, you hear something.......a low moaning sound and some movement in the room beyond......grabbing the door handle, you fling it open, ready to whip to death anything moving in the space beyond.
The sight that greets your eyes is shocking, to say the least. Charlie, one of the orderlies on this floor, lays injured on the floor of the supply closet, a bit of piping in his hand is stained with more of the gunk you recently cleaned off your whistle chain as well as what appears to be blood from a bandaged wound on his arm. As he sees you he leans back a bit into a sitting position against a nearby wall. "Jeezus, you two nearly gave me a heart attack." he says with a sigh
"With those things running around I ran in here to hide.....I was nearly home free too, well until that spider bastard creeped at me from the ceiling and bit me." he continues, motioning to the wound on his shoulder, which seems to be slightly infected.
"Are you ok Charlie?" you(Coleman) ask, going over to where he sits.
"I'll be ok I think." he replies.
"Spider....what....what spider?" Staines asks, looking around for any signs of an arachnid presence.
"You mean you didn't see it out there in the bathroom? Big as a pitbull it was, and with a personality to match....I beat it senseless earlier but it managed to crawl away somewhere. If you go back out there i'd be careful." Charlie whispers, as he watches the door that leads back into the toilets area.
For a short moment the three of you hear some sort of sound coming from the Bunkroom next door and what sounds like someone complaining loudly for a few moments, and it sets the three of you on edge. It dies down though after a moment or two.
Seeing that Charlie is hurt, and one of the few kind orderlies on this floor, you decide to get him into the Bunkroom and maybe have some of the others tend to his wounds a bit better.
"Staines, help me escort Charlie into the Bunkroom where he'll be safe....we can check out this room later." you say to Staines, waiting for him to nod in approval before the both of you each take an arm and lift Charlie up off the floor of the supply closet.
As the two of you enter the toilets area you are caught off guard by a
MASSIVE CREATURE the size of a pitbull(a large pitbull). Arachnid in appearance, it bares it's fangs as it swoops down from the ceiling in an attempt to catch you unaware. As you motion for Staines to quickly set Charlie on the floor next to the sinks and prepare for battle, the arachnid creature swoops down again, just barely cutting Charlie in the abdomen(not a puncturing wound, just a grazing one.) before Staines is able to get him out of the way before the creature comes back for another strike. Preparing yourselves for battle, you watch as the creature scuttles along the webbing on the ceiling, going above it on occasion in one spot and coming back out in another as it decides whether to attack or not.
