Lucas:
The hound seems a bit nervous.
"No, I'm alone. And well... A friend of the town taught me. A human like you..."
He looks up, right at you, with some.
"You're not with the Uniware? But who are you with then?"
Smasher:
There's a collective shudder at the mention of spiders.
You ready your shotgun, turn on your headlight, and move into the dark tunnel, squad in tow.
The tunnel is made out of concrete, thus it's still in good condition. But it is covered in webs and alien nests. The tunnel is wide enough to drive 2 vehicles down at once, side-by-side.
At the bottom of the dark passage, you reach a junction going left and right. On the wall right in front of you are signs.

There's a sudden brief rapid-clicking echoing through the tunnel. Orgin unknown. Then it's back to being eerily quiet
"The fuck was that?"
Father:
The sergeant sighs, but seems intrigued by the mention of the downed sniper. She walks on over to the moaning bush, and reach in.
She then pulls out the wounded hound, looking less than pleased at his defeat, showing his teeth.
The sergeant gives him a firm punch in the head, and he goes out cold. She turns to walk out of the jungle, back to the road with the hound on her back.
"For his own good, he'd better have intel. Else I'll turn him into a coat for what he did to my squad... Come on, we need to get back to the Lumberyard!"
