"AAAGH...." Ty hissed, falling as the hive leaped and sunk his claws into Ty's calf. He heard the denim of his jeans rip, and felt as the claws dug into his flesh. He lay somewhat on his side, his guns on the ground nearby, having been dropped.
He swung at the hive, but Sarah had already shot at it. He grabbed the gun nearest to him, and rolled awkwardly to his feet. He put as much weight as possible on his good leg. He knew he wouldn't be a match for 24020's speed, especially now. He was just glad Sarah was there.

((You guys are starting to NPC the Hive... you don't have to fix anything you've already put, but try not to do it again. You gotta remember all connected Hive are controlled by this account.))
Precious could feel the pain of every Hive in the complex; every dead one that fell made her wince in agony. The queen was not pleased. They weren't winning or losing, yet, but... it was beginning to be too much for her. The snow white Hive female stared at the flap in the door of the lab, then headed out.
---
24020 let out a noise that was a mixture of a yelp and a roar as he was shot in the leg, and he jumped back by pushing off with his front legs. The male glared with both anger and hunger as his wound dripped blood on the ground beneath it. He was not happy, but... he couldn't do anything about it, unless... He gave a smirk.
Almost immediately, six other Hive were running full-speed at Sarah and Ty, mouths open and fangs bared.
Hellboy ran down the hall, soon coming upon the sick bay, which was being guarded by... Abe?
Damn, he didn't know the guy had it in him.
The half demon chuckled, walking up to stand beside his friend. "Want any help?"

If the Hive hadn't been moving in a straight line, Sarah was certain she wouldn't have been able to see them, they were moving so fast. She shot vaguely at them, beginning to panic slightly. You can't shoot a target that's moving faster than the bullet... and they were on top of her before she could tell if she'd actually managed to hit anything.
Large, sharp teeth bearing over her, and paws holding her arms down, her gun gone from her hands again... if she could just reach up and grab the collar she could shock it... but she was pinned down and the teeth were closing in. This was going to end very badly...

With the timely arrival of Hellboy, the icthyo sapien felt incredible relief and reassurance about driving away the monsters. Even as they screamed hellishly, the bluish BPRD agent experienced a limitless surge of bravery. Abe smiled, turning briefly to his half-demon friend and spoke his affirmation on the combative matter.
"Indeed so, Red!"
After that was proclaimed, the humanoid began cleaving his saber into the flesh of the nearest Hive-creature.

Ty fell, dropping his gun, feeling Hive pile on top of him. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Ty yelled at the top of his voice in agony as he felt the meat from his left calf being torn away. It was a deep wound, and he could feel the blood seeping out of his leg.
He didn't know how many were on him, but all he could think about was the searing pain. "S....Sarah....I'm...sorry....my....fault...." Ty was fading, and fast, he needed help, and he needed it quick...

The queen ran as fast as her feet would carry her, which was much faster then any of the other Hive. Soon, she was upon the battle. She stood in front of the gate for a moment, blue eyes searching for her William. When she found him, the beautiful female Hive ran to greet him. She rubbed her head against his leg.
"Love..." she whispered, frowning. "It's beginning to get too much. We have lost over twenty. It hurts."
Hearing their queen, the Hive on top of Sarah and Ty backed off, turning to look at her. They lowered their heads in respect and flattened their ears.
Hellboy chuckled, then shot at one of the Hive, only to find he was out of bullets. "Damn..." he cursed under his breath. Still, he shrugged and ran at it instead, right hand raised and ready to punch. It launched itself at him, latching it's long claws into his upper left arm. The half demon screamed in rage and pain, trying to shake the thing off of him; it was too high up to be reached with his other fist.
Finally, Red rammed his arm with the Hive on it into the opposite wall, provoking a squeal from the creature. It fell off, hissing and bruised, and jumped back, away from him.
"Here, kitty, kitty..."

Tears of pain and fear were trailing out of the corner of Sarah's eyes as too much pressure was placed on her wounded arm and large teeth drew nearer her. This had not gone according to plan at all.
"S....Sarah....I'm...sorry....my....fault...."
Sarah shook her head, trying to let him know that he wasn't to blame. But judging by his broken sentences, even if he could see her he wouldn't be able to focus on her simple head movement. She squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for the final pain before nothingness, but it never came. She let out an involuntary gasp and her eyes flew open as the the pressure was released from her arm and she watched as the Hive backed off of her and Ty. She stared at the creatures for a moment, waiting for them to turn around suddenly and pounce again, but they didn't, instead, their heads were lowered as if in a bow.
Not wanting to question this sudden stroke of luck, Sarah used her good arm to pull herself along the ground to Ty so she could get a better look at him, wincing when she saw the mess that was now his leg.
"It's going to be okay," she whispered, knowing full well that if Ty didn't get immediate medical attention that statement would be a lie. The question was how to get him to the medical bay without being run down by more Hive.

William looked down as Queen rubbed against his leg. He frowned. "Twenty?" He shook his head. "We've sent our message. And they've tasted new meat. Our work here is done." He turned and walked away, giving the whistle telling his babies it was time to leave.
Ty felt the Hive get off of him, but his world was spinning. His leg hurt, and he had other minor scratches.
"It's going to be okay." Ty barely heard Sarah's words. He looked at her and nodded. But Sarah was in no shape to carry him to the medical bay. And if he didn't get there soon, it would most definitely not be okay....

Undeniably proficient at wielding the borrowed saber, Abe was dispatching ill-tempered Hive-creatures. To any who observed the battle, his strenuous combative actions seemed to be performed with an unnatural ease. However, the icthyo sapien did gain scars from time to time from the mislead creatures.
"Almost there...!" Abe thought. "We must drive them off!"
As the fight raged, the blue one wondered if there was an end in sight. He never liked killing, even when it was called for. Furthermore, much to his distaste, the nonhuman agent was saddened that he was slaying these magnificent artificial organisms.
Still, the bloodshed went on.

Suddenly, the Hive stopped attacking. They lifted their heads and ears in unison, eyes wide as they heard the call. The creatures backed off, ran to follow their master's directions. Left any "meat", anything they had been fighting behind.
The queen and master had commanded it. And so they had to do it.
Hellboy glared as the one he had been fighting retreated. He was still angry; no one hurt him without paying for it. The half demon let out an angry grunt and chased it down the hall, out to the front of the building.
But then, he lost it in the crowd of Hive. Red let out a grunt of frustration, searching frantically. That's when he saw Ty. He pushed the thought of killing the creature out of his mind and trotted over to his friend, bending down.
"Jeez, that's not looking good, kid..." he murmured. "C'mon, let's go get you taped up." He grunted as he picked up Ty in both arms, holding him slightly away from his body. His golden eyes glanced over at Sarah. "You, too. That arm might get an infection."
Precious hesitated a moment as the others left. She could smell the blood, and her stomach ached to be fed with it. The white Hive raised her head, staring at Sarah, Hellboy, and Ty for a moment. Still, she turned and sprinted to catch up with William, slowing down to walk beside him. She rubbed her head against his leg and purred as they all moved on...

Cass was curled up at the corner of Ty's bed dreaming about her next hunt. She didn't even notice Ty leave or anything occurring outside of his room. She had kept sleeping, unaware of the world around her. She was warm, and she was with her master, or so she thought.
When her eyes slowly opened up to reveal Ty gone, her head snapped up. 42184's hunting instincts kicked in, smelling for any kind of sign. She got out of the room and searched frantically until she saw a big red man carrying Ty. That must have been Hellboy. "Red Man....what happened to Master Ty?" There was a worried tone to her voice as she followed behind, not wanting to leave Ty's side. Her eyes never turned away from Ty. It was her fault. Had she been awake she could have helped with whatever attacked, but she was not. "I am sorry, Master Ty...."

Sarah swallowed hard as Ty nodded at her. She had to get him to the medical bay, but how? HOW? Relief washed over her as Hellboy knelt down and lifted Ty into his arms. Thank god for that.
"You, too. That arm might get an infection."
Sarah nodded and hauled herself to her feet, following meekly behind him as she quietly plotted all the ways in which she could make the mad scientist guy suffer. There were quite a few and she was finding it difficult to pick between them. Seeing another Hive approach them Sarah quickly raised her gun, but lowered it again realising it was only Cass, Ty's...pet?... friend? Whatever, it was on their side... Jesus didn't this guy sleep? Couldn't he attack at lunch time or something when they were all awake?

As quick as the Hive arrived, the unique life-forms sharply retreated from whence they came. Needless to admit, Abe was thoroughly relieved. However, he once again felt tangible alarm upon seeing Hellboy pursue one of the Hive-creatures.
"Hellboy, wait!" Abe shouted. "Don't go after them alone!"
That is when the icthyo sapien began chasing the half-demon agent for the sake of his safety. The blue humanoid raced down through the series of halls and eventually exited from the BPRD's front entrance. A ghastly sight greeted his aquatic eyes upon catching up with the reddish half-demon.
Hellboy was carrying a bloodied, severely injured body that was none other than Ty. Closely being accompanied by Sarah and the disconnected Hive-being Cass, the red half-devil proceeded pointedly to the sickbay. A solemn expression etched on Abe's visage, he waited for Hellboy and his concerned entourage to pass him before joining them.
This time, he didn't bother uselessly asking if all were unharmed, for that was an asinine question beyond measure.

Ty felt Hellboy lifting him, and he groaned, the slight movement aggravating his leg. He closed his eyes; he was feeling dizzy and lightheaded. "Thanks....Big Guy...."
He heard Cass' voice. "Got...hurt, Cass....Not your...fault....you didn't...do anything...." He let out another agonizing groan. It hurt with a pain he couldn't even imagine....before today.
