He was glad to note that Borzakovsky had also decided that using the alcohol was not a good idea, considering that they were probably dealing with an acid. Still, the wounds needed to be cleaned, Michael could still feel his arm glowing and burning.At the Borzakovsky's comment, Michael hands over his candle. A moment later, he gladly accepts Moreno's torch, but is a bit startled by her warning.Dear Lord, more of them... While we're still recovering from the last attack? Damn, someone must be watching us, if they can time it this well. My arm is killing me, how would the others feel. We have to make sure the acid is out before anything else. The others might hold off an attack for a moment while the Corporal and I think of something. --Clean it out with something, but what?Seeing the flame from the torch suddenly gives Michael an idea, he hustles over to Borzakovsky."Sir, I've got an idea. The bottle of Jack is pretty much the only source of clean liquid we have available now. We need that to clean the wounds, but the alcohol spoils it, since it doesn't mix with the acid all that well. How about we just burn the alcohol right out of it? Oxidizing alcohol leaves water and CO2; A little flame and a couple of second and we should be good to go."While talking, Michael has already looked around the room, and formed a plan how to go about it. We probably need about half of what's left in the bottle. That combined with the first aid kit should be enough to help everyone. The crystal vase over there, it would probably be big enough, and it would be a good container to do the burning. The murkey water is probably unusable, just throw it away. --Oh wait, I could pour it in one of the empty bottles of cleaning agent, there must be an empty one close by. You never know if we may have to use it some time later.Okay, I think we're all set. --Just do a quick recap of burning liquor. Nothing can go wrong right, and most of the alcohol should be gone in a short while? I think so. Good..."I think half of what's left in the bottle would do, if we also use the supplies from the first aid kit. Can I proceed, Sir?"Michael nervously looks up at the stairs, trying to see how much time they'll have left before they'll have to defend themselves from the next attack.</blockquote>
