It wasn't a choice that Guy found easy, either, but the fact was that they probably wouldn't be of much help trying to fight in this narrow hallway, anyway. And if they got held up, it might mean the worst for Anise and for Luke. In the end, it had to be this way.

Once Claude gave out his warning (which probably wasn't needed, but it was best to be safe), Guy grabbed him by the arm and started to quickly pull him past the group. While it did pain him to run away from a group of patients that might be their help, they really had no choice.

Luckily, the monster didn't end up switching targets, so they were able to get past without any complications.
