There was a commotion at the far end of the hall. Jim-Bean peeked out around the corner.
"Another one. He's running hard this way."
Hammer drew a bead on him, then lowered his pistol. "What's that behind him?"
A dark, clanking shape loped behind the scientist. The scientist's features were concealed in the shadows of the hallway. As he passed through the flickering lamplight from above, red stains were visible on his lab coat.
A second later something huge and hairy flashed through the shaft of light after him.
He never made it. The thing landed on the scientist's back, smashing him to the ground with one paw. There was an odd whirring sound as its shining jaws, visible even in silhouette, clamped down on the struggle skull of its prey.
"What the hell is THAT?" asked Jim-Bean.
