Resolving another round of combat! Taking actions for James and Doc
Round 3 resolving:
[Doc: Draggs Jason away
Ross: Helps Doc with dragging Jason's shredded body out of the clearing.
Ray: Continues filming something smoldering, smoking and angry ontop of the collapsed roof...
Jason: Gets dragged: "Bleed Bleed", now at -4. You've got quite the messt trail behind u now.
James: Runs over back into the cabin and grabs the camera from Ray his hands and runs off after the rest while grabbing Ray by the shoulder.]
James looks around, spots the black drag trail through the snow, he follows it with his eyes to the edge of the clearing where he sees his two friends disappear behind the treeline in the direction they came from, dragging a lifeless shape in between them. He stands still for a moment, hears some uncomprehendable babbling and turns around and watches in horror as he sees Ray still standing inside the damned cabin.. FILMING....
YOU IDIOT! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING!?
He bridges the few yards between them in just over a second... he takes the camera from Ray's hand and grabs him by the shoulding and giving him a furious stare in the eye.. for just a second, because that's all they have to spare. He runs after the rest, following the black, bloody trail towards the edge of the clearing, to the trees.. to cover. That's all his instincts tell him.. Forest.. trees.. cover.... survive... He runs with everything in him, still holding onto Ray, stumbling behind him, still in his unstable state of mind.
They reach the edge of the clearing, where James throws down Ray.
Man... you are a good guy, but do you have a deathwish or something? If I didn't pay any attention there you'd been that thing's midnight snack. Now let's get the hell out of here. I don't wanna lose you man, you're my buddy, and buddies stick out for eachother. Now let's find the other three.. James and Doc are still dragging Jason away. Thank god Doc payed attention and got the poor little guy out of the fray and in the clear here. Let's get going... where the hell are we gonna go now.. we need some help.
He scurries off again in a hurry, Ray close behind him. As they make their way through the trees there sounds one last howl... but a way back and moving away from you. You seem to be safe... for now.
Ray, you got any... Ray?
*Hold in for a bit and pokes Ray* Huh what?
We need to get Jason some help... some first aid.. and for as far as I know all the people at the hotel are a bunch of ass kissing incompetents... any idea where we can find someone with some first aid skills anytime soon? Jason looked bad... and I'm NOT gonna give up on him so we'd better hurry.
The two run a bit further where they clear the trees again and see the Clear Water Hotel again, blazing like a beacon in the distance. They hear something which makes them almost jump their skins but when they turn around it is just Doc, who takes them a few feet back behind the tree line where Ross tore his shirt and used it to stop the bleeding on Jason. Ross looks up at the rest when he sees them, a look of relief on his face that they all got back without any injuries.
Well the bleeding stopped.. but he's gonna need some help. Anyone have any suggestions...? Some simple first aid will do and some disinfectant. He's hurt bad but nothing internal. Just slashes and bites... luckily just fleshwounds. And like I said, he's ok for the moment but I'm gonna need a bit more professional stuff to help patch him up so he'll be alright... If we can manage that, he'll be fine.
Ray sits down against a tree for the moment pondering...
That box.. he attacked the guy with the box... right? Right? That's it! he was just protecting the letters... yeah... Would he be that Malcolm guy or something...? It can't be.. that's so long ago... Malcolm.... Malcolm...... isn't there another guest at the hotel with that name? A red haired Irish looking guy.....but... Yeah you are right, first we gotta help Jason first... but where to go.. *ponder*
The five of you head out, carrying the body of Jason with you.. but where are you all going?
[OOC: I tried to move things along a bit and add in some flavor. I hope you didn't mind me playing a few lines for your chars. I hope I played them well. If there's anything wrong with that.. please tell me and I'll edit it the way you like or let you post yourself.]
[But where are we going now lads... Jason is gonna need some help.. at -5 and stable at the moment.]
[Btw guys, great combat. These folks really have some personalities! I love it when the PC's really are someone. I love you guys for playing, it is great and I love to GM this game with such great players and personalities. Let's keep it up in the new year! Grtz, Kris, You're cultist GM /OOC]

Wow, that update was a bit larger then I thought hehe. But it left you five in a interesting position... where to next? 
Hope the pictures and stuff are all working ok for you in the posts above.
Again I like to mention that I like to fold it into a story and leave the dice results out of things. This way it is more attractive and more of a story, the numbers don't matter, just the results. If you are curious what I rolled and what kinda roll I made for some things, just ask. I hope the putting in a few lines for your PC's now and then isn't a problem... keeps a bit on track and keeps the game fluid and moving IMHO.
This is my preferred style, if any of you have any problems with it please state so! Else we'll jsut move our little endeavor along
Great playing!

Cudos to an exceptional DM!
Ray thinks back to what he has seen so far. We're going to have to get Jason to the hotel. I have a feeling that the creature was searching for something or someone there. I also think I might know what it is. There is some sort of conspiracy here and my nose is twitching. Ray calles the front desk of the hotel.
Yes this is Mr. Spacy. One of the members of my party was mauled by a bear we are just about to the hotel. call whomever you can to help. No we didn't see the bear but he was mauled by something! Get on the stick pal! We'll be there in a few minutes. [OOC: if any of you can tell me who has a twitching nose when he gets a hunch I will be very impressed.]

Yes the Sherif... I have noticed you don't seem to like him... well that feeling is mutual sir...... aha.... I understand.... He still is the place for first aid in town Mister Spacey. A moment please... hold on.
*fumble, crackle, thump, fumble*

Standing Ovation TFO!!!
"So they say that they will have a car waiting? What about an ambulance? Why is the sherrif going to fix 'em up? Is there no hopital? This all seems to strike me as a bit strange. Good thing that I got his gun so that the sherrif dosen't question him." Ross says to the others after Ray gets off the phone.
"You know what guys. . . I really need to get me a shotgun. I wish that I had my Mossberg 12g from home. I use to train with that every day on the force. Man this whole experience is getting a bit hairy - no pun intended. I really think that we should all consider arming ourselvs with at least some more protective clothing and maybey carry around some medical gear. Cant you fix people up Doc? Or do they call you doc for a different reason?" Ross seems to be just talking to him self uptill the point with Doc. Ross seems to just kind of drift in and out with the volume of his voice with this conversation and stare ahead till he turns to Doc. Ross seems to be staring off to the sky while carrying Jason.
