In the upper east hallway...
Clay was still standing with the enigmatic fellow known as Jack as well as the shady looking fellow named Kenneth. Jack was slowly leading them down the hallway to a stairwell.
"I found some other survivors earlier." Jack said, walking over to the door that lead to the small room underneath the stairs. He swung it open to find that the room had been abandoned. A very brief inspection showed that there were no zombies, monsters, corpses, or anything of the sort in the small room. There was, however, a file on the desk, which Jack quickly skimmed through.
"Same old, same old." Jack thought to himself, recognizing the familiar traits of the T-virus infection. Figuring that the two probably wouldn't have risked going upstairs, he lead Kenneth and Clay out of the room and back into the T-hallway.
"They probably went in here..." Jack muttered as he pushed open the other door in the hallway. The double doors swung open, revealing an office area. Several desks cluttered the room, most of them had been pushed out of their normal alignment and a couple were toppled over. Papers, office supplies, and even coffee were all strewn across the floor... in addition to several bloodied bodies. Several moans filled the room.
"What the..." Kenneth muttered as several walking corpses began to lurch towards the group from across the room. Jack couldn't see into the private cubicles due to their drawn curtains, but he figured there would probably be more zombies in there.
"Aim for their heads." Jack ordered, then began firing at the monsters. While Jack's attention was diverted to one side of the room, two zombies began lurching towards Kenneth and Clay from the other side. He didn't notice them, as he was pre-occupied. Clay judged he would be able to shoot down both zombies from their distance.
