Low to the ground, pulling her body over cracked tile and scattered debris, Derrica's entire body is prickling with tension. Aware of the sound of these rotting creatures clicking and groaning and screeching over Marcus' diversion. Aware of a new sound and the danger is presents. Aware of Marcus' movements in her wake.
Aware when those movements cease; that dimension of sound going silent.
They can both slip beneath this barrier, easily enough. Exit as they had entered, maybe none the wiser. Hands on the grime-covered metal of the gate, Derrica twists around to look at him.
It is because she is so twisted that she sees it, that moment when a runner turns, sniffs the air. Draws in a deep, moaning gasp and shrieks at the two of them on the floor.
