The only thing keeping him from breaking into a run was the firm knowledge that he still had a ways to go and didn't need to be tiring himself out. Especially not if that was all it took for something lurking just out of sight to start chasing.
His own boots kept clicking against the overgrown sidewalk, making him wince internally. If something heard that...

Movement. Working out the direction it was coming from Helen headed towards it, raising her gun and moving quicker. The sounds increased the closer she game - growling and even louder still the sound of footsteps. And not just footsteps.
Turning a corner, gun fully raised, it was more than a little obvious that she was surprised to find Doctor Tam there rather than a creature. The sounds were still audible, however - they weren't alone.
"Are you all right?"

"Zhēnbàng," he breathed sarcastically, though he didn't lower his hands just yet. The question was reassuring and now that he took a moment he recognized Helen Magnus he knew he probably wasn't going to get shot. If only he could get his heart to slow down as well.
"I'm fine," Simon went on, "but do you think you could put that away? Or just...point it elsewhere? Please?"
Their voices were not helping the situation, drawing the attention of the nearby monsters. Across the street a trio of dogs that were too big and too malformed to be actual dogs crept out of an alley, eying the pair as potential targets.
(OOC: Oops, forgot... zhēnbàng ( ... )

"Sorry." She'd been about to ask what it was that he was doing out there although the sight in the corner of her eye distracted her from that. Instead she nodded to back down the alley that she'd come from. "Come on." She doubted that he was ready to fight - or shoot - anything.
