The End: An Action Novel by Uzeybug / Uncle Dunky - Part 4 of 5

Captain Jim pounded across the steel girders of the walkways and slammed through doors. The mission had gone down the drain. Just 5 minutes ago something had reached down through a vent on the ceiling and grabbed Frosty. Jim knew he couldn't stay in the same place for much longer. Then he saw something that filled his heart with hope.
"Frosty is that you?!"
Frosty lumbered towards him
"Frosty come on, talk to me!"
"ARGHGARGH!"
Jim stumbled back, attempting to get away. What had been Frosty reached out and grabbed him. Then it began changing him into what would be described by the pop culture as zombie. He felt the Hunger.
Foobchain lifted his head. For the first time in hours, the aliens had come into the room. They erected a cage and placed something in it. It shuffled around and made incomprehensible noises. Suddenly it lashed out and bit one of the aliens. All the Gill Men rushed in to the cage to contain the threat, but every one of them fell prey to the creature. It turned to face the Commander. What once had been Jim Darkmagic opened its hideous jaws and let out an inhuman shriek. Than it began to slam into the bars of the cage, denting and weakening them. The Gill Men began to get up, in the same state as Jim Darkmagic.

Sargeant Kira moved cautiously through a narrow corridor. "Army Knife" moved beside him. ToK was a little behind but it wasn't until they reached the end of the corridor that they realized just how far behind he was.
"Sergeant wait for me!"
He ran to catch up, but a many tentacled creature burst through the wall and grabbed him. It took him kicking and screaming and assimilated him into the wall.
"MOVE SOLDIER, GO!"
"Army Knife" needed no prompting. As they rushed forwards, they saw remains of alien corpses along the path.
"They must've been experimenting with a biological weapon and it backfired on them. We need to set those charges or the outbreak may extend well beyond the base!"
