Re: Log 2-9
Laz moves toward the controls. He squeezes in next to Jade, who is reloading the LAW.
Lot is running to the back of the train, pistol drawn.
Snow fires his shotgun into the main mass in the hole being opened on the train. The mutant is hit, squeals, and then slams into the concrete ceiling of the subway above. There is a thump, thump, thump on the top of the ceiling moving toward the front of the train. Then you see the mutilated body fall out onto the tracks in the path of the oncoming horde.
Sam is looking at Elle and the mutant. He rubs his wounds. "We must get this body back for analysis," he says. "Our analysis before leaving the Matrix showed that they repelled the Sentinels. If we can harness that--"
His words are cut off as Mitose fires up at one of the mutants making a hole in the ceiling. He hits something that squeals, but then it moves back in position, hiding behind the hole it is opening up.
Snow is recovering from his shots and unconsciousness.
The screen flashes still:
TRACKS BLOCKED AHEAD. DANGER. EMERGENCY BRAKES ENGAGED.
COLLISION IMMINENT. DISENGAGE THROTTLE. 20 SECONDS TO IMPACT.
Then a new message lights up.
TERMINUS DETECTED. 30 SECONDS TO END OF TRACKS.
Lot begins banging on the back window to break it. That's when he notices the light at the end of the tunnel...literally. The traincar is about to surface from the underground into an open air track. It will exit the subway in approximately 10 seconds.
Laz follows Lot to the back window.
Jade fires the LAW into the center of the tunnel per Fault's suggestion. The missile explodes in the distance, throwing up rubble and dust. You don't know its effect, but the horde seems unaffected. It continues toward you.
With a crash, the rear window of the traincar shatters. Wind begins rushing through from the rear to the front windows, both of which are broken now.
It appears that two more mutants are on the ceiling of the traincar trying to break through, plus the one that survived Mitose's bullet.
In the darkness, Lot and Laz cannot yet see what is blocking the tracks ahead.
