They shot Victoria. Fuck. One of the only trustworthy members of this crew and they had snagged her. Still, there was a sense of relief and wonder that the entire shower of machine gun bullets hadn't caught her in the head or directly to the chest. Veeran had no time to even marvel at the amazing shot that he himself had made. There was a fraction of a moment where he could have shot the man without harming Mick, and he had done it. Still got it.

"Jy, get in here now, and help Victoria crawl out. Do whatever the fuck you need to and get her back to Liston."

He got on the van intercom to Liston himself.

"Doctor, you have two patients headed towards you, one with a bullet through the collarbone, and one with a shredded stomach. Save the first one, keep the other one alive long enough for us to get something out of him."

The broken glass of the cafe gave most of the bodyguards vision inside the restaurant. They needed to impede the vision long enough to get out of there.

"Calvin, whatever it is you are holding in your hands better be of some use to us. Mr. Roth do you have another one of those smoke grenades? All we need to do is push them back blind for a few seconds and we can get the hell out of here. Throw one of your smoke grenades between us and them, it doesn't have to reach them, it just needs to block their vision. Drag Adrian out back when you're done. Calvin, if this is the popping recipe you referred to earlier, now better be the time. I am going to take a shot at the guy directly in my line of sight, he is the only one who can see through the door."

Veeran squinted at the man before the car and lined up his shot. Suddenly, as it happens to Veeran whenever he takes a shot, the world went still, the noises were quiet, all sounds ceased to exist and the only sight in his eyes was the man's forehead. Veeran took his shot.



Edit: Here is a rough plan of the movements. The red arrow indicates my bullet to the guy.

OOC: Is staying inside and waiting for all of them to expend their ammunition a viable strategy?

OOC: No, because unless they are complete retards they would have called for back-up. So if we wait, we're going to be surrounded. We have a few minutes to get the hell out or we're dead.

Quote from Captain Cook

Veeran succeeds and kills the man, and Mick crawl-runs back to the group in the restaurant, with Henry and Adrian retreating back into the cafe as the shooting begins.


I'm confused, is Mick in the restaurant or still outside?

OOC: See the diagram dude, Cook has laid it out so much, so the least you can do is LOOK at the map. You're lying on the floor outside. Either you crawl back to us, or you remain there.

Right before Veeran took his shot, he noticed Mick writhing in his bonds outside the car. If they could all get to the van in time, they could drive around the restaurant as fast as possible and pick Mick up if they had enough ammunition left for suprressing fire. It was a long shot, but with Victoria's injury, Veeran wasn't prepared to lose any more of the team to save a snitch. It they couldn't find adequate cover from the bullets to pick Mick up, Veeran would make sure that they run him over instead and squash his skull.

It was like being slugged over the head; stinging pain and pressure and loss of control, except it was in her shoulder and not her skull. Thank God for that, at least.

Victoria had never been shot before and was panicking, unsure if toxic shock was already worming its way through her system. There was so much blood and it was trailing on the ground behind her and all of it was hers and all she could think about was if she'd live or die right there. Fear had her cruelly in its grasp and she was struggling to make it to some kind of safely as more bullets flew all around her.

At some point she dropped the gun in her good arm with how much it impeded her progress, but the part of her mind that was still calculating knew that she couldn't leave fingerprints behind. With agonizing slowness she instead twisted herself around, pushing the gun's safety and hugging the rifle to her body as she struggled onto her knees, before slowly shuffling towards the exit that way. All the while she could feel the hot blood as it spilled down her body and she had to fight not to be sick.

"Not shot through the collarbone, Veeran." She managed to gasp into the radio through clenched teeth. "I can still move. It just hit muscle. But for the love of God, don't let Adrian die. Just stop the--" For the smallest of moments, her brave facade faltered as she looked again at all the blood around her. Horrible dread had a fist around her heart. "Just stop the bleeding."

"Jy, get to her, NOW! Take off your shirt if you must and use it to stop the bleeding. Liston, if you're listening to this, give Jy any instruction you need to get him to stop the bleeding. Grab whatever tools you have in that disbarred box of yours and crawl in here. If she is bleeding too much to get to you, you're going to have to get to her. Victoria is our first priority, Adrian second, Mick third."

OOC: Well ok, I'll just go with this layout.

Mick was yelling, though it was drowned out by the gunfire all around. He needed to get a hold of himself, or he was definitely going to die, in fact, there wasn't a moment where he didn't risk death since he went off by himself. Last mistake like that he'll ever make. He inhaled deeply and blinked his eyes of tears, smoke was still around, but it was growing thin, he needed to move or get shot.

He concentrated and observed where the smoke was thick and he turned to see where the sound of gunfire was coming from, he saw flashes and determined the distance, he turned to his right and saw through the smoke a silhouette that wasn't firing, near his position was a downed man, he didn't care if he was alive or not, he assumed he was alive and could easily shoot Mick if he wasn't careful. Mick stayed on the ground, crawling agonizingly slowly, but at least he was moving, toward where the smoke was thick near the entrance of the restaurant. Still wary of the man on the ground.

When he makes it to the restaurant he'll still stay down, but he'll try flip the table nearest him toward the broken glass for cover, if he can't lift the table then he'll wait for instructions, then get out with the others, while still staying low.

OOC: Hopefully number 7's not gonna turn and start firing or else I'm sure Mick's definitely gonna get hit.

EDIT: Wait, crap is 5 still alive? If so, then he could start firing at Mick.
EDIT2: Not taking chances, I'll assume so.

"Of course of course!" Jy ducked in and hobbled through the kitchen. He tore his sweater off and wrapped it around her shoulder, tying the sleeves under her arm to hold it in place. He bound it tightly to apply some pressure as he tried to help her get out of the restaurant. Before they got out he picked her up and helped her into the van. "Thank god you're a woman. Much lighter than Adrian." He tried a weak joke as he got her to Liston.

OOC: This is entirely up to Cook, but I can't imagine how, in any conceivable scenario, No. 7 will just stand there and watch Mick crawl and not to do a thing. Unless he chooses that exact moment to pop into the car to call for backup or something. I don't know. Sorry.

Ooc: Then its up to its to either give him covering fire or let nature take its course. I don't think that we could drive the van right back in front of them to pick him up without getting shot into Swiss cheese either.
Also, this is probably the last post I'll do until Victoria gets looked at. Not much else to say that's worth reading

At the joke, the Russian girl gave her partner a pained smile. "Thank you, Jy. I mean it." She managed to say, cradling her shoulder with her good arm. The pain was beginning to increase like a drill on her neck spinning slowly faster.

Helpless and terribly worried for the lives of her team, Victoria sighed, wincing at the pain that it caused. All she could do now was wait and try to ignore the blood that continued to flow.

OOC: Yeah we can't drive right up to him. But we could drive up to the bend behind the restaurant, where only Mick and No. 7 can see us. I could take a shot at No. 7 from the van with my sniper rifle and Mick can make a dash for us. But this is again assuming that he won't be ripped to shreds by machine gun fire if he makes a run for it.

Roth chucked his last smoke bomb out in front of the van as he quickly hung his shotgun over his shoulder and proceeded to drag Adrian with his free hand out of the cafe and towards the van. As he passed by Veeran he reminded the old fool, "Don't fucking forget that that piss head can still snitch. We either save him or I blow his brains out as we all get the fuck out of here." Roth gritted his teeth as he continued to drag Adrian towards the van. "Why the fuck do I always get stuck with the fat fucks?"

OOC: The best thing I can have him do is keep an eye on the guy and duck when he sees a flash. Then again if he gets slowed down theres a chance that the other gunmen will see him, fire at him, and kill him, so I guess I'll just wait for Cook.
