Facility was deathly silent. Only a moment ago alarms had blared. People had been running around, screaming, tumbling over each other in their haste to get out. To reach the heavy blast doors before the emergency program shut them down for good. Of course nobody had gotten to those doors in time. Same program that sealed the hive released halon gas to the air conditioning system. Gas spread throughout the whole facility, efficiently neutralizing all the signs of life.

Incident had been successfully contained. Clean-up protocol would follow.
