Zeek wiped his goggles with a groan after getting a face full of the detonating corpses blood. It had always been hard to find a lab coat with no stains on it at school. But he didn't have time to worry about it as he noticed the rest of the group running and bolted to catch up, making it inside the door just before it was slammed shut.
Then he noticed the Gravekeeper and stopped dead in his tracks, eyes glued to the thing as if it where a thing of dreams. But he was quickly snapped out of it however as Rio told him to keep it busy, and with a muttered "With friends like these..." he picked up a nearby pipe sticking out of a pile of ruble and was about to throw it when Brian kamikazed the thing.
"What the (please do not swear)..." he muttered, unsure why someone who had been on their own for so long would now just blindly charge such an opponent, without asking for any help or trying to detract it in any way. So Zeek just shrugged and dropped the pipe, walking over to Rio to give him a hand searching for the key.
(Sorry not posting, it started with Far cry 3 and getting Dark Eldar didn't help.)

(OOC: Zeek would notice that it's been distracted by Karen, it's watching her, which means its back is too Brian. Unless I've completely misunderstood the layout of the area the characters are in now. Also, Brian did motion for people to rush the locked door.

ooc- Sorry bout the wait guys. 5 days out-of home, completely unexpected, no Internet... you know how it goes.
Ic- Searching through the drawers, Rio and Zeek find a small Set of keys on a keyring- 5 different keys all in all, as well as stacks of documents and what appears to be a letter opener, which miht be useful as a weapon, but in all likelyhood, it won't. However, there is a retching sound from behind them, the source of which is a receptionist - A nice, young lady named Racheal - Who appears to be midway through transformation, a Tiny trickle of blood on her arm showing where she had been cut.
The gravekeeper ignores Brian as he charges, still starin at Karen. Brians sword swing connects easily, but fails to penetrate more than skin deep- there doesent appear to be any blood, either. Worse still, the area of blade that cut the gravekeeper now has a coating of rust, and a blunt edge. The keeper then swats brian aside, so he tumbles to the floor beside the two Girls. The Keepers gaze shifts to Brian now.

Rio grabbed the keys ring, throwing it to the girls by the door. He then grabbed the letter opener, striding fast with a look fear. He grabbed the receptionist by the head and with little skill, drove the letter opener into her eye, as she seemed to struggle violently. He'd buried it far before he relented, a remorseless look in his eyes. He'd known the polite little receptionist before, but they'd never really talked. He let go of her, hoping silently that it had killed her.

Keket caught the keys and looked with horror at the creature before her. She cooly and quickly began to try the keys in the lock. She watched the creature lumber towards Brian. The lock opened with a click and she turned the handle and threw the door open. She pointed at the door, "Karen run." She turned lifting a chunk of rock up and hurling it at the monstrosity. It clunked off the side of his head with a thunk. "Hey ugly. Off of our hero." She breathed in as the creature turned looking at her, then she took off dragging Karen with her since the girl hadn't moved.

Karen didnt even register the words from Keket, Staring in horror as the Gravekeeper swatted Brian down the hall. She snapped out of it and Gripped Kekets hand as they ran out the door, But she still had the same terrified look, and she couldnt help but stare at the doorway, as though her gaze was drawn. Her expression clouded again, And she steppedd towards the door, headed bback inside.
The grave keeper did not move, Rather, it lowered its Sword and stood still, Lights still flickering, as if it was waiting for something. It lifted its gaze off of brian and back to the open doorway.
Inside the office, Racheals agonised spasms stopped, and she lsy still, with a smile on her face. The letter opener snapped off in her skull though, rendering it useless, And leaving the two unarmed. Mr. Astrala stepped inside the reception and pulled a key out of his pocket, opening up a Cuboard in the back and pulling out a Pair of electric Torches. "We might need these."

Rio ignore the torches and made for the door, the creature now seeming mesmerised by the exit. The air was cold, a small breeze now floating through the corridor. Something seemed to reach into his mind and will him to turn his legs. He was helpless to the motion and when he turned back, there it was, a pair of eyes burning into his vision. The keeper was exerting some mental force on him, like the distortion it was causing to the lights. His knees grew weak and buckled, slamming onto the tiles. The lights flickered yet more as all sense of feeling left his body, he was totally paralysed.

That blow had taken everything from Brian, it felt like. He was vaguely aware of Keket shouting something, and that the Gravekeeper was now completely focused on him. He wasn't sure if he'd but cut or not. His chest, where the thing had caught him, was absolutely numb, and the rest of him wasn't exactly stellae, either. He was unaware of how much time had passed, if he had hit his head, or even if he was changing into one of the Servants...Slowly, he struggled to his feet, the chill air from what had to be the now open door rosuing his senses a little...Karen was still here...there was a sword still in his hands.
"Hey...I ain't dead yet, buddy!" he barked, seeing triple and he glared at the Gravekeeper."

Ooc- Actually Edzilla, None of you guys can feel the Complusion, only Karen. Your charactdr is fine.
Ic- Karen reached tge door, the glazed look still in her eyes. Brian was blocking her path, But a Chilling wind seemed to blow, More like a Vortex around tge Gravekeeper. It held is fre hand out, beckoning eith two fingers. A chilling sound echoed through the Air- a sound like every bad memory you've ever had- that said 'Come...'.
Mr Astrala Looked at the Keeper, Tgen at Karen, Before pushing himself between Brian and the Keeeper, and pusing him out the doorway, snapping Karen outbof it as the two hit the floor. "Kids! Run now! Run!"

OOC- ok, I thought it was a bit more... Universal
"Listen to him!" Rio shouted as he immediately got on his feet and rushed down the stone steps to the Tarmac where the younger ones spent lunch. Now it was deserted and with the sun falling out the sky, it felt as inevitable as death itself. There was an exit to the carpark, one more entrance into the school, a likely unscalable brick wall. He murmured backwards ,"what anyone got the address to that 'place'." He took a few more steps till he stood in the middle of the grounds. Stopping in silence, something told him that the carpark would be writhing with the (please do not swear). Then again, he couldn't hear anything, but that meant little, those leader "things" could be keeping the other "things" quiet.

Zeek stood there still behind the Keeper, and half raised his arms in a sign of mock surrender. "I'll stay here then." he said sarcastically to the Keepers back. After no reply from the others he sighed and moved forward and calmly walked past the Keeper, making sure its attention didn't shift from Brian. After he got through the door he steadied his left arm that was shaking violently, which was completely at odds with the rest of his body.
"Thats get on that bus now..." he muttered to the others as the fire extinguisher started to buckle in the door way before he moved over to where Rio now stood, not really caring what had happened to the others.

The keeper, Seemingly taking notice of Zeek at the last second, lunged, but missed, its sword impaling.on the door. It didn't follow the group out though, as Mr. Astrala threw a chair at it, Which Splintered and broke.
Karen grabbed Kekets hand as they fled to the P.E department, buratingbthrough the doors. This corridor was empty, But the end of the hallway had a Crude sign painted on it- a Skull and crossbones, And tge words 'Wild Dogs Land' painted underneath. Oytide there were 4 corpses- 2 Servants- or part servants, seeing as they had corpses left-, An uninfected Boy of 14 called Terry Books, and a naked, headless human female, Who was obviously human when she died. There was alot.of blood, Suggesting that a screamer had died too.. The other corridor led to the Changing rooms- The Exit they were after was straight.through 'Wild Dogs land'
