Survival CYOA

You make your way towards the equipment and weapon storage as Rachel heads for the medical and food storage. You look at the glass cases and find a manner of foreign objects. You open one of the casings and remove what appears to be a ball made of tissue. There is a document behind the specimen and you read it. "Preserved Bloated Phosphoric Jellyfish. Keep away from flammable objects? What?" you ask yourself confused. You continue to inspect the cases and find other odds and ends. Reaching another item that makes you curious, you open the case and find a strange green organic sac. You quickly grab the document attached to it and read. "Great Swallower Stomach. Warning: Very corrosive? These aren't weapons..." you say to yourself. You then take back what you say as you reach this particular aisle's end. You see a manner of firearms and blades mounted on racks behind the glass casing. "This is what I'm..." you say before suddenly feeling dazed. You try to fight back the feeling, but everything around you begins to swirl. After a few more minutes, you fall to your knees and start to puke. It doesn't take much longer before you black out.

You wake up to the sight of Claire's smile. "Y-you're back!" she says happily. "I thought I lost you."
"Wh-what happened?" you ask delirious.
"Y-you passed out," Claire answers. "I told you to drink the water, it helps keep vertigo at bay."
"Sorry for not listening," you tell Claire. You feel dampness in your ear as you sit up. "Why's my ear wet?" you ask.
"B-because of this!" Claire answers with a smile as she pulls out a strange container. "It was one of our scrapped projects. This is Biogel made from a special kelp that grows in the trenches. It acts as both a healing and edible substance. Pretty neat huh? Anyway, it closes wounds, but it doesn't necessarily heal them. In other words, it'll lessen the amount of vertigo you feel, but don't do anything to strenuous otherwise I'll have to apply more."
"That's not a big deal right?" you ask. "We should have plenty down here to take with us."
"That's actually where my concern comes in," Claire says her voice now having a hint of concern. This was the last can and it's good for another five uses. There were other cans, but it seems they were all use recently to treat a major wound... Not only that, but the body supplement prototypes we had were missing as well." Just as Claire finishes her sentence, a gigantic beast rounds the corner no more than a few feet in front of you. It is a Broodkeeper unlike any of you've ever seen easily being twice as large as the biggest one you've encountered so far. It's two front arm have morphed into sickle like appendages and it lashes at you. You push Claire down with force making her fall on her back as you lean back yourself. The creature's swipe Narrowly misses both of you as it collides with the cases of weaponry causing some to break and others to fly. You:
A. Reach out for Claire and runaway together
B. Tell Claire to run and then split up
C. Try to grab one of the nearby weapons
C. Try to use a scalpel from your pouch
E. Other

Great...a hydralisk, just what we needed.
I don't know, guys. We might get cleaved in two. We should probably run, it probably can't make its way up ladders with sickle arms. We could get a weapon, but who knows if there's ammo in them.
B...I suppose.

I have to deal with a very dysfunctional group everyday and it really sours my mood. Sorry for not replying sooner guys. Or in this case, guy.
"Claire, run!" you say. She looks at you momentarily before crawling from underneath the creature and running. The creature yanks its claw out of the display case and focuses its attention on Claire. With it distracted, you grab the nearest weapon which happens to be a knife. You jab it into the closest leg as the creature towers on top of you. Upon impacting with its carapace, the knife flies out of your hand. You hit the monster hard enough for it to change focus on Claire to you. It swiftly rotates with alarming speed to your surprise and lashes at you with its sickle like protrusion. Your eyes widen before you roll to your left off your back and on your stomach. You then quickly get up and start running scooping up one of the pistols as you do so. You look back at the creature now charging towards you and closing the distance at an unspeakable rate. Hopelessly, you fire at the creature and the bullets simply leave a dent or bounce off its ridiculously thick exoskeleton. You throw the pistol realizing the caliber isn't enough to puncture the creature's armor and you continue to run with all your life. In just a few seconds, the creature reaches you and swings it's massive foreleg. It impacts with your side, lifting you off the ground and right into the display cases. The glass shatters as your body impacts with it and you hit the wall of the fridge like display case. You shake your head before noticing a foreleg heading straight towards you. You dive out of the way as the creature continues to repeatedly strike the display cases. After frantic dodging, you lose your balance and stumble. You fall flat on your stomach and you see the inevitable claw ready to connect with your body. Acting on instinct, you grab whatever's closes and throw it at the monstrous beast. You are surprised when it rears back as its claw starts to sizzle and smoke. You look at the document on the wall wondering what you threw at the creature as it rages outside in pain. "Great Swallower Stomach. Warning: Very Corrosive." You then notice that the creature is now readying another strike with it's other claw. As you try to reach for another stomach, you hear automatic fire as the creature's other claw bursts from a barrage of bullets. "Claire!" you say as you see her standing on top of the display cases opposite you with a rifle. The creature swings around to focus it's attention and you dive to avoid its tale sweeping the display cases. As you recover, you notice a pile of Phosphoric Jellyfish. You look at Claire as she frantically tries to reload the rifle and the creature readies to lunge at Claire with its gaping maw. You decide to:
A. Look for something to focus the attention of the creature back on you
B. Run while it's focused on Claire
C. Tell Claire to forget reloading and just run
D. Tell Claire to forget reloading and find some sort of lighter
E. Other

"Claire!" you scream flailing the comatose creature in your hand. "Find something to light this!"
"O-okay," Claire says. She screams as the creature jumps up at her. The case she stands on gives in to the creature's weight causing both of them to fall. The creature falls on its back as it struggles to right itself. You run up to Claire and help her up just as the creature rights itself.
"Come on!" you say as you grab her by the hand and run. "Don't look back!"
"Y-your'e ear!" Claire says.
"What?" you question before feeling something warm trickle down your ear. You feel your neck and see blood on your fingers once you bring it up to your face. "Doesn't matter right now, just run!" You reach the middle of the aisle and stop. "Split up! Find a lighter!"
"Got it!" Claire says as she runs down the aisle closest to your right. You yourself decide to:
A. Go back
B. Go left
C. Go forward
D. Go for the shaft

Just to make it clear, here's how the room looks. Pretend they aren't segmented and those should be the aisles. The O at the end is the shaft with the ladder out of the room and the U is obviously you haha. Think of the cases in the aisles like you would long refrigerators in convenience stores. Claire's down the isle to the right of you.

You run ahead frantically at the aisles in front of you as the monstrous Broodkeeper gives chase to you. When you reach the end of the aisle , you turn to your left and continue running. The creature plows through the aisles with little effort and it catches up to you just as you reach the room's corner. You turn around pressing your back against the corner as debris, equipment, and weaponry fly all around you from the destroyed aisles. With both it's killer forelegs now out of service, the creature lunges at you with it's deadly maw. You:
A. Try to stop reach out for one of the weapons/equipment on the ground
B. Try to stop the creature with something in your pouch

D. Yell for Claire

Wah, so hard! I'm not sure if any of the weaponry will immediately save our protagonist, so I will opt for evasive maneuvers.

You scan the ground for an instant before diving out of the way and causing the creature to impact with the metallic wall with a loud clang. The whole facility shakes and you feel the entire armory rock. You then here rushing water coming from the shaft as you now realized the force of the Broodkeeper's impact has severed the armory from the main part of the facility. Focusing your attention on the current situation, you shuffle through the ground before picking up a higher caliber pistol than the one you had before. The creature dislodges itself from the wall and you unload everything. The bullets pierce through the thick armor on its chest end the creature rears back as the puncture wounds start to leak visceral matter. As if unfazed by its new wounds, the creature lunges for you once more but the rising water around your knees makes it difficult to move efficiently. The creature grazes your side, drawing blood as it swings its head towards the direction you are diving causing you to fly and land on one of the destroyed aisles. You try to shake the daze that you feel to no avail as you see the Broodkeeper making what you expect to be it's final lunge. With the creature approaching, you focus your attention to above you as you hear a clicking noise. You see Claire standing on top of the case that you are against holding a lighter and igniting one of the Jellyfish. With a savage scream, she chucks, the blazing organic matter right at the rushing monster. It impacts with its head bouncing of harmlessly before exploding into a beautiful green display of flames. The creature flies back and falls on its side with its legs twitching from the resulting explosion. You:
A. Reach out to Claire to pull you up
B. Call out to Claire to pull you out
C. Wait in the water for a while
D. Try to find another weapon

"Claire," you call out to her as she stares at the creatures convulsing body. "Help me up."
Claire snaps out of whatever trance she's in and reaches out to you. She grabs your hand and pulls you up alongside her on the top of the shelf. She looks at the flood of water and points out towards the distance. "Y-you're pouch!"
"Doesn't matter, let's get out of here!" you say as you scan the area for possible exits.
"I know what happened!" Claire suddenly says.
"So what I was thinking was... Wait, what did you say?!" you ask.
"Th-the bug! The missing Equipment!" she exclaims. "It was Rachel!"
"What?" you asked perplex. "Rachel's dead, I slit her throat."
"Y-you did!" Claire replies. "She got the last Broodkeeper to drag her here. That's why all the Biogel is missing! She used it on herself!"
"What about the body supplements?" you ask. "What happened to those?"
"She used them on one of the Broodkeeper's children," she answers. "We've studied these things for a while. I can tell you that the one we just killed is a child. It's much bigger, but the characteristics of the body is still that of a child's with the exception of a few mutations."
"If that's the case, where's Rachel now?" you ask Claire another question.
She pulls out the Biogel and readies to apply it on your bleeding ear. "This is gonna sound crazy, but Rachel's..." Claire is cut off as a strange tongue like appendage latches on to her and pulls her off the case. You follow her with your gaze as she zips through the air and straight into the Broodkeeper's mouth being swallowed instantly.
"Claire!!!" you scream before cursing the fact that you just assumed that the creature was dead. You decide to:
A. Take extra time and pick up the Biogel Claire dropped and try to save her
B. Take extra time and pick up the Biogel Claire dropped and run for your life
C. Don't waste any time and try to save Claire
D. Don't waste any time and run for your life

You make a blind move and jump down into the waist deep water. The Broodkeeper lashes out with its newly revealed weapon and it connects with the case behind you as you move out of the way. You see one of the corrosive stomachs floating in the water and you make a made dash for it. As you wade through the water as quickly as you can, you feel something stick to your leg. Turning around, you have a mere moment to notice that it is the Broodkeeper's tongue. It begins to reel you in and you fall into the water. As you are dragged under the water, you choke as some water enters your lungs. You try to grasp at the floor to no avail as the creature drags you closer and closer to it's mouth. Only mere moments away from being eaten, your eye catches what looks like a pointy object. You:
A. Continue to see if there's anything you can grab hold of
B. Let the creature swallow you and see if you can fight your way out from the inside
C. Try to hit the creature as it drags you closer to it's mouth
D. Reach out for the mystery item
