One might think that the sudden appearance of a wolf would add to Carlisle's present terror, but given the man-in-the-glass advised he take the communicator and he does not want to have to go back the way he came to get another one -- especially if that means passing through 'decontamination' again -- he adjusts his priorities. Scrambling to his feet, he takes off after the hound, who manages to stay ahead of him with ease.

"Wait! Wait wait wait wait wait where are you going?! I need that!"

The wolf takes the stairs two and three at a time, gaining ground as Carlisle nearly trips over his own feet, trying to keep up. The device beeps helplessly in reply as Carlisle calls after the wolf again.

"Don't you know anything about people's personal property? I just got that, and who knows if I can get another!"
