With a quick step around the door, you jump over the two stacked bodies on the ground. With the lights only just turned off, Anna is only just now starting her change back to human. However the woman on the ground is severely wounded with blood pouring out from a variety of deep slashes and bites.
You almost clear the two of them with your jump, but your left foot comes down on the woman's clipboard. You stagger but continue by as Anna's fur falls off of her shrinking body. Regaining your pace, you get away from the still bestial-like creature and dash for the door you entered in from (as opposed to the door that led to "Randy"). With a smile, you see the door you're aiming for is still slightly ajar. Gaining speed, you only risk a quick glance back to see if either Anna or Joy is on your tail. Anna's fangs fall out onto the woman who is still trying to weakly push her off of her, but Joy is unseen. Likely she's waiting for Anna to completely change back before following. You fling open the door leading to Tom's viewing area and....
The bright lights blind you for a moment. For a second you feel like a spotlight was trained on you as if you were an escaping prisoner, but in fact they're just the room's lights turned extra bright as a dozen guards and and zoo staff are slowly bringing a solid metal box with a few air openings at the top and a massively secured door on its side. The six-foot tall box is on an electric cart with two tank-like tread on the bottom. At least that's what your brain recognizes after the fact.
Within the moment of being blinded, you plow into three of the guards who were about to enter through the door you barreled out of. They had their guns out, likely having heard the woman's scream, and were coming to assist. Your momentum plows you right through two of them, with the one of on your right stumbling back into the third. The first two fall over as your eyes adjust, and again your footing is lost. A gun hits the ground and slides along with you. In another direction, you see a ring of seven keys slide across the floor. You end up ramming into the side of the metal box with tips to the side. The heavy box shakes a bit and starts to teeter a little. You hear one of the men closer to your exit route start shouting, "HOLD IT UPRIGHT! HOLD IT UPRIGHT!" He's holding a small remote control that he's pointing at the track-cart with.
"What the-? What's going on, you sorry sacks of meat!?!" a deep woman's voice shouts from inside the box.
Tom gives a laugh.
You don't find any of this funny.
Very quickly three more guns are pointed at you. "Stay right there!" one of the ones you shoved says as he points his own gun, a fourth, up at you. "What are you-?"
"Get back!" you hear Joy shout from inside. "Stay on the far wall now! Don't move!"
"Where is he!?!" Anna shouts angrily.
