Onwards Again

You continue on stepping past the singed corpse of the broad mother. Behind you, you hear the rats munching on the carcass of their former leader. As your journey continues you follow the winding path of the subway station. You feel your body begin to slow as the previous encounter has clearly drained you of most of your energy. You stop to catch your breath and let your mystic torch flicker to nothing but a faint match. As you regain your energy you can’t help but feel a shaking sensation beneath your feet. You reform the light in your hands and begin examining your surroundings. The walls of the tunnel begin to rumble and debris falls from the ceiling. As the rumbling gets louder and closer you can feel something approaching from behind. You begin sprinting forward not daring to look behind you. As you continue you can hear it getting closer and closer with every second and you know you need to do something. As you frantically look around the tunnel you see a side passage of some sort just large enough for a person to travel through.
