Masks of Nyarlathotep: Chapter 1.5 (New York City)

*Miriam gives a loud shriek, in hopes that it will startle their attacker and perhaps bring some help... possibly.*

God in Heaven, what have they gotten themselves into? she thinks in fear, getting her handbag ready to clout the man upside the head if he gets past Charles.

"Phauugh!" William braces his foot against the door and jerks his arm free of the zombie's grip, unmindful of any wounds this may cause. Once free, he runs at full speed to catch up to Jack, Jibril and Father O'Malley.
 

If William gets his hand free, Jibril slams the door fully shut and sprints away and up the stairs. If not, he shouts, "William! Give me the gun!" then holds tha barrel of the gun directly against the zombie's forearm, angles it so the blast won't take Willam's hand off too, and fires.
 

If I get my hand free:
The zombie behind the door attempting to escape, William hurls himself after the others as quickly as he can. "I would imagine that searching for the knife is straight out," he remarks to Jack, making light of an otherwise grim -- and unnatural -- situation.

If I don't:
William fumbles at his belt for the pistol, and hands it over to Jibril. He shuts his eyes as he flinches and braces himelf for any... discomfort that may come.
 

((OOC: I guess I've gotten ahead of myself here... If the hand is free, then Jack runs upstairs and attempts to find some heavy object to place over the trap door (after everyone is out, of course) if not, Jack will also stay to help pull william free, firing his remaining shots if need be into the forearm of the zombie. Once that's failed, he'll look for something that might give him leverage to use against it in some way))
 

Outside the Ju-Ju House

As the man runs into the alleyway, Miriam's scream causes him to stop short right infront of Charles. The man has a startled look on his face as he finally sees you two. Charles, unable to find a decent weapon rears back and punchs the man right in the face. (Rolled a nat 20 and confirmed the Crit!). The man yells in pain and grabs for his nose. Miriam steps up and swings her handbag hitting the man across the back of his head. Knocking him to the ground. :)
 


Inside the Ju-Ju House

William pulls the severed arm off of him. It's fingers still moving as he throws it to the ground. See that William is free of the arm. Jack runs towards the stairs. Jibirl pulls the door shut and holds on for dear life as the creatures hit the door from the other side. Jibirl seeing the others run lets go and runs himself. Up ahead Father O'Malley is having a hard time dragging Lt. Poole up the stairs. Jack helps him pull the the cop up and out into the shop with William and Jibirl close behind. Just as you climb out, you hear the front door of the shop open.
 

*Miriam is startled at herself for accurately clocking the man, and even more surprised at Charles for punching him. Gathering her voice again, she lets out another yell, this time hopefully to more purpose.*

"William! Father! We're here!" she cries.

OOC - Crazy old lady fightin' action! :D
