The Terror Within Page #3

Check this out.

Ooh, just like a hot knife in butter.

It's definitely lethal.

Oh, Jesus, look at that.

It's a quarter of the

juice just like that.

A quarter of the juice.

That's only four shots

before you hit zero.

That sucks.

Okay, two teams.

One with the welder,

and one with the laser.

The welding team is gonna

start here on level two.

If it's there, and you can't kill it,

Try and drive it down to level three.

We'll be waiting there at the outlet.

If we can't get it,

We'll try and drive

it down to level four.

There's only emergency lights on four,

So watch your steps.

If it gets that far, we

can seal off level three.

Then we're gonna follow

your suggestion and gas it.

Any questions?

Yeah, what's the teams?

You two take the welder to two.

David, you and I with

the lasers to three.

We need the mutt on two, don't we?

Sniff out the little bastard.

- Makes sense.

- Yeah, that's right.

You take the dog with Andre.

Neil, you come with me to three.

- What about us?

- You stay here.

Oh, come on.

What, do you want to end up like Karen?

Wait a minute.

You mean they're after the women?

Thank you, Neil.

Our problem's not getting any smaller.

Let's get cracking.

Be careful.

I was never a good audience.

You ready?

We're on level three.

Everything's okay so far.

Roger.

Getting ready to move along.

Moving.

Oh, God.

Hal, they're back up topside.

First thing's first.

We'll deal with them later.

All right, Neil.

Proceeding to shaft number one.

Nothing yet.

Hal, we're losing our

monitors on level three.

Be careful.

Well, what else is new?

Thanks anyway.

I told you about that

government issue crap.

We were supposed to fix that next week.

Neil, open this door.

Okay.

Over there.

Come on, man, that

thing's slowing us down.

Yeah, any suggestions?

Yeah, why don't you

wait here at the corner?

Butch and I will go on ahead.

I don't think we should split up.

What's the matter? You scared?

Yeah.

Aren't you?

If butch spots anything,

I'll be running right back for you.

Yeah.

It could work.

I guess.

Hal?

Under shaft number two.

Roger.

David, we're right below you now.

Hal, I just checked my room.

Nothing.

Going on to sue's.

What is it?

Just outside sue's room.

It's definitely been here.

Go, butch.

Go find the little sh*t.

Hey!

There's something back here!

Butch, come!

Down there.

Hal?

Yeah?

We heard something

back towards shaft one.

We'll work our way down there.

Ah!

Oh, my God.

Hal, it got Andre.

What the hell is going on here, hal?

Easy.

Hang in there, kid.

Ah!

Wait.

No, sue, don't!

It got David!

Hal, sue's coming down to level two.

Damn it, I told you to

stay in the control room.

Take the elevator to two.

Get sue and David back to control.

Yeah, not without you I'm not.

I'll be right after you. Go.

I'll cover you from here. Now go.

Butch.

Butch, come.

Butch?

Butch?

Butch?

Butch?

Andre.

What the hell are you doing here?

Come on, get back to the control room.

The elevator.

Sue! Sue!

Oh, Neil.

Hal, it got sue.

Hal? David?

Anyone come in, please.

This is hal.

The thing has got sue.

What was sue doing down here?

I don't know. She came after me.

It's got her in the elevator.

On four.

I'm gonna get that son of a b*tch.

Hal, I'm coming down.

Butch, you stay here.

We'll be back for you.

Let's go.

Hold it. It's me.

Where is she?

Level four.

I don't know how much is left in this,

But you may need it.

Ah, Christ.

They could be anywhere in here.

Oh, my God.

Oh!

No!

Wait.

Get her out of here.

Now.

I will mess you up, you ugly f***.

Die!

Ah!

Hal! We got to go back!

It's too late. There's

nothing we can do.

Now let's get her out of here.

How is she?

I'm giving her a sedative.

Is the elevator door locked?

Yeah, the level's sealed off.

What can I do?

Get some of those

sterile wipes over there

And help me clean her up.

How's he doing?

He's all right.

Sue?

She'll sleep for a while.

Let me have a look at that shoulder.

Sorry.

I know it hurts.

Hang on.

David...

How long have you and sue

been sleeping together?

Don't look so surprised.

Can't hide something like

that in a place like this.

About four months.

Why?

Were you using anything?

She told me she was.

What's all this about?

Come on, Linda.

She's pregnant.

How far along is she?

A month,

A little bit more.

But it attacked her.

If she was already pregnant,

then it couldn't do anything...

How do you know for sure?

I don't care what kind of

genetic mutation created them.

There's no way it can happen that fast.

It's all right, sue.

It's all right.

How long have i...

You've been out for the last four hours.

Now just lie still.

The drug's still wearing off.

Last thing I remember, I was...

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Shh, it's okay.

It's okay.

It didn't get you.

Yes, it did.

Yes, it did!

Sue, sue, it couldn't.

Sue, you were already pregnant.

Why didn't you tell me?

You must have known.

I didn't tell you

Because there was nothing to tell.

You're wrong.

You are pregnant.

There hasn't been enough time.

I wasn't pregnant.

I didn't have any symptoms.

You thought it was something else.

We've all been under a lot

of stress lately, right?

You're wrong.

Both of you, you're wrong.

Come on, David.

Let me deal with this.

She'll be okay.

Just give me a minute.

Linda,

I know it's not David's.

Please, get rid of it.

Sue, there's no way.

There's no way it could be human.

You can't know that.

I do. I do know that.

You got to get it out of me.

Please.

Please.

What if you're wrong?

What if I'm right?

There's nothing I can do right now.

You're still too weak.

Whatever happens, you're

gonna need some rest.

I want you to take these.

They'll help you sleep.

Now, we'll be just down

the hall in control.

Take them... Now.

Don't worry, sue.

I won't let anything happen to you.

We're almost out.

We're gonna have to go out there soon.

Any bright ideas?

I've been trying to figure

out why I could move around

On the outside without

getting in too much trouble.

First, I thought it was butch.

It turned out, they don't like him,

But he doesn't scare them away.

That's not gonna help us.

Anything else?

It moves around in the air vents, right?

Yeah.

If I could get in there,

maybe I could trap it

Or at least seal it off.

And what if it shows up

while you're in there?

Well, I ain't sticking

around to smell his breath.

Coming down towards level two.

I'm at the power supply on level two.

There are some bare wires here.

Looks like Andre was doing some work.

I'll try to close the air vent.

David?

David?

David, what's happening?

Keep talking to me.

I just saw him, level two.

He ain't getting any prettier.

I'm coming up.

Any luck with that air vent?

No.

Damn it, it's stuck. Can't seal it off.

Christ, this is great, just great.

Look, I'm gonna try

the rocky Mountain lab.

Couldn't hurt.

All right, if you need
