Nedjar dashes across to the trailer where Vidal waits. The radioman looks to voltiguer and says, “Give me covering fire!  I'm going to get closer!”“Go!” he replies, and fires a long burst at the wagon. Vidal sprints from behind the trailer, racing across the dusty farmyard, MAT-49 in one hand, grenade in another.Marcel watches the barn as Normand moves inside. Out of the corner of his eye the medic sees the legionnaires moving to the east, hears the long peals of automatic fire, as the smoke billows out of the barn. A voice – Ortu, calling his name – “Doc, what the devil’s going on over there?” he implores.Inside the barn the smoke and the hastening twilight make it difficult to see anything, but Normand can make out a strip of light at the far end of the barn through the haze – the opposite door is part-way open. The interior of the barn is like a maze – Normand can just make out the shape of a tractor and a stack of filled burlap sacks as he follows Sgt. Müller. The German holds his submachine gun pressed tightly against his shoulder, swinging the barrel from side-to-side as he scans. “Kat!” he hisses, and Sgt. Katsourianis, followed by Burhan Pamuk takes off for the far end of the barn, moving quickly but deliberately to reach the far door – once across Kat peers out through the open doorway as Pamuk looks back into the barn, toward the loft over Normand’s head.Normand looks up toward the loft as well – he can faintly make out the wooden platform that extends some six or seven meters across the barn’s interior, some four meters above his head. His ears strain to catch a creaking board, his eyes to see a puff of falling dust, anything that might betray their ambusher, but the billowing smoke and the roar of the guns outside make it impossible.As Vidal runs across the farmyard, the air around him is suddenly filled with the whiz and crack of bullets. Vidal: Reflex save, DC 15, to avoid autofire – if you fail the check, please make a Cool check for me as well. If you make either the Reflex save or the Cool check, Vidal will reach the trailer. If not...</blockquote>
