Quietly leave via the front door and keep away from any parasite hosts.
[13] Alexandra snuck out the front door and kept and eye on the horde while waiting for the others.
Warren grunts, looks around him, then follows.
[1] Despite his best efforts, Warren had absolutely no idea how to stealth. He ended up alerting the entire horde and they began to move towards the house. They will reach it in a few moments.
Niru quietly follows, looking around for infected and avoiding them if possible.
[17] Niru darted past Warren after seeing the horde moving, and met up with Alexandra. They seem to be focused on Warren.
"Agreed."
Follow the others.
[5] Dan ran outside, but tripped over Warren. He skinned his knees, but his running should still be unhindered.
All hosts, cease attacking Ethereal.
This is the only time I will show any mercy.
Next time, I will kill anyone that I encounter.
The hosts pulled back, leaving the madman to his ranting. They began to move towards the other humans, intent on their prey.
