Irina took a moment to calm herself before continuing on her journey. She didn't bother with hiding along the walls to avoid the windows, instead she made a full-on sprint towards the basement. Every so often she'd run into an injured patient pleading for help and completely ignored them.
"All of these people are going to die anyway." she told herself. She had to justify her abandonment of them somehow.
The young nurse held the keycard tight and elbow a frightened man out of her way. She was in flight mode and that meant her top priority was self-preservation. She couldn't save anyone else if she didn't save herself first, right?
She eventually reached the door leading to the basement. It was never locked thankfully but kind pitch black abyss was actually kind of creepy. Irina swallowed hard and reached along the wall for a light switch. Thankfully she found one but the light itself was dull and flickered.
"Of course." The caregiver groaned before reluctantly taking her first step.
The wooden stairs creaked as she put her weight on them and the light continued to flicker. Why did the basement have to be so damn spooky. Irina hated horror. Once she got to the very bottom however, the real challenge began. The basement area was bigger than expected and that would make finding the bunker a whole lot harder. Marge hadn't exactly been forthcoming on an exact location.
:I guess I have to fan out and search for clues." She half-joked. Every second was critical. "If I were an architect, where would I put a secret fallout shelter?"
That was the million dollar question.
"Where was the dame bunker?!"
