Sorry about that Mike, I missed the hand holding part, poor Koln..)

As Ruby enters the barn there is a clicking noise and a scythe swings down from above the door. Ruby isn't quick enough to dodge it and it stabs her in the chest sinking the blade a few inches into her.

Scythe Damage
2d4 → [4,4] = (8)

Ruby takes 8 damage (piercing).

Just so you know, Ruby regenerated her lost health from the zombie battle so she's at 48 right now.

Koln is behind Ruby and Lacey comes up behind Koln because she did run after after them when Ruby took off dragging Koln. Clover isn't there yet because she is walking over to the barn.

Ruby is the only one who can actually see inside the barn as she is standing in the doorway. The barn is lit by a single bulb dangling from the ceiling. Hay litters the floor and there are two more bodies lying on the ground that look like they were workers on the farm. Both are men wearing dirty worker's clothes. The one lying further away is near a small flight of stairs that leads up to a loft. There are two lofts on the left and right but the stairs to the one on the right is broken and inaccessible. Below the lofts are some empty stables where you can presume that livestock was once held. The body that is closer to where Ruby is standing is lying only a few feet away in the middle of the room.

Here is the map. If you want to continue going inside and yelling like you said you did then you can but you guys kind of jumped the gun so I had to rewind a little.

Koln lets out a pained gasp as he sees something swoop down and hit Ruby. Standing at the entrance next to her, he looks down at the sickle sticking out of her chest. For a moment he stares at her wound and hates himself for not being able to help her. If she were human she'd probably be dead... and he'd be alone. The image of her lifeless body skewered against the sickle sticks in his mind; only after a considerable amount effort and anguish is he able to clear his head.

He slowly takes the sickle and gently pulls it out of her, stopping for a moment when he thinks he's causing her pain, then continues until the weapon is entirely out. "I'm so sorry Ruby..."

No, it isn't his fault... it's these vampires, the scourge of God. If it wasn't for them making an unholy mockery of humanity, and playing games with mortality then everything would be fine. Ruby would still be a sweet innocent Amish girl, and Clover would still have a world of promise ahead of her. Clover... wait- He shoots Lacey an angry glare from under his hat as he realizes Clover's not with them, "Clover, where is she? And why are you not with her right now?! ...You better pray she catches up, unharmed!" Not waiting for a reply he turns and enters the barn ahead of Ruby, keeping his eyes peeled for any more unfriendly surprises.

That scythe snapped Ruby out of her aggrivation immediately and brought her back to reality. She whimpers in pain as Koln gently removes the scythe from her chest. "No I'm sorry, I got carried away again.." she said with a sad frown. She slowly followed Koln as he made his way around the barn.

The scythe lifts up by itself to its position over the door after being dislodged from Ruby's chest.

Searching around you see a trip wire that triggers the scythe to come down.

Lacey gives Koln a rather dissatisfied look "Hello to you too. Don't worry about Clover she's right behind us, judging from the sound of her carrying on I'd say she's close by!"

Sure enough Clover arrives on the scene shortly after. Koln can see the top of her head behind Lacey.

Clover walked slowly and purposefully up behind the group, straining to see into the barn but already smelling Ruby's blood in the air. She gritted her teeth in frustration (as mad as she was at the group, the fact that Ruby was hurt concerned her greatly) and cocked her head pseudo-patiently, "So... now what?"

"Now.. I continue inside, and you three stay here. If someone MUST come along too, then Ruby. I want you staying put with Lacey." Again, Koln continues inside the barn.

Not to be a jerk or anything but you didn't try to disarm the trap or say that you stepped over it so make a Reflex Save.

The third time is always the charm!

The scythe comes down and misses Koln and hits Clover (just kidding ). Despite the fact that Koln moves silently in the barn he has obviously not entered unnoticed. You hear a voice from the loft above on the right.

"Well well. I had set that trap for mortals who were too curious for their own good. I never thought I would be visited by other kindred."

There is no way up to the loft on the right as the staircase has broken.

"Not again" Ruby says with a frown as the scythe comes down and misses. "Phew"

Ruby looks to her right as she hears the conversation above. "We'll see about that.." she says calmly as she braces to jump high to the loft.
Thought I could at least try to see if I can at least
