IC-THRU-Among the Ruins(Luke only)

As the afternoon gets underway, the survivors from the T-Bone have been split up. The helicopter group must land at an airfield halfway to Omaha for refueling. Those still on the surface try desperately to defend the motel, while those trapped underground fight for their lives as they search for a way out.

IC-THRU-Among the Ruins(Luke only)

Post by Mr. Handy »

Z-Day - 12:17 PM Mountain Time - Ruins of the T-Bone
Luke lay sprawled out on the roof of the garage, the only part of the structure still standing with the exception of the small section of roof above the stairs leading underground. He could still see the badly wounded zombies crawling through the grass to the east. Only nine remained, and he was confident he could easily finish them off before they reached the rubble.

(You may take five shots at the zombies' heads with your rifle. Use your normal skill with only the -5% penalty for shooting at the head. Any hit to the head will finish one of them off, so there is no need to roll damage. Also, roll Listen.)

Luke finishes off 3 more zombies and curses at his missed shots. With the report of his 7.62x51mm rifle and his cursing, he fails to hear anything.

Luke eliminated three of the crawling zombies, leaving six more to go. As he was lining up his next shot, there was a tremendous noise of rending metal and shattering glass coming from west side of the motel. He could also hear the sound of vehicles approaching rapidly from the south. They sounded like a mix of motorcycles and light trucks.

(You may take one shot this round, but if you do so you will not be able to look at what's going on to the south or west. Roll Know to try to identify the source of the sound to the west.)

Luke looks around as he identifies the sound, he figures that he can kill the crawlers without too much trouble, while the sound is far more intriguing.

Luke recognized the whine of a helicopter engine just before the crash, probably a Huey. Turning around to the west, he could see the twisted wreckage a short distance northwest of the motel, jutting above the high grass not far from the edge of the field.

(Roll Spot Hidden if you want to see into the grass.)

"Holy sh-..." Luke mutters as he takes a closer look at the grass.

Luke could see the twisted wreckage. One man lay bleeding in the grass a short distance south of it, unmoving. Smoke was starting to rise from the ruined helicopter and prevented him from seeing inside.

Luke scans the surroundings of the chopper for any zombies. Crashing is bad enough, but being wounded and then attacked by zombies must suck... He also notes that any dead people in the chopper might 'turn', thus needing to be put down.

Luke watched the helicopter and the man on the ground near it. The man just lay there and did not move. Smoke continued to rise from the crippled chopper's engine. He could see no movement at all near the wreckage, and nobody emerged from it yet.

Luke returns his attention to the other side take care of some more crawlers, but he intends to periodically check up on what happens at the downed chopper.

The six remaining crawlers had gotten a little closer, but there was still time to finish them off.

(Go ahead and shoot at one. Any hit to the head will be a kill.)

Five of the creatures were left. When Luke glanced back at the wreckage, he saw a motorcycle stopped between it and the man he saw earlier. A man and a young woman in leather jackets rode it, and the woman climbed off and knelt over the man from the helicopter. A moment later, he began to stir.

(Roll Spot Hidden to see more details.)

(Yes, the man lying on the ground near the wrecked chopper is the one who stirred. Luke can't make out any additional details.)

Luke uses his scope to have a better look.

(That roll already presumed Luke was using his scope to try to make out more details. That's all he sees unless he's going to wait. Also, don't forget I need a couple of rolls for Bob in Over.)

The man got up off the ground with the woman's help and began speaking to the man in the leather jacket. Then both men ran over to the helicopter, the injured man limping a bit. They climbed inside, vanishing behind the curtain of smoke. Another man in a leather jacket who looked similar to the first one ran through the grass and caught up to the woman. He unslung a rifle and headed for the chopper as well.

Luke presumes that since the leatherclad people are armed, they'll take care of it. Not to mention that the USAF snipers probably have eyes on. He turns back to shooting crawlers. (if already up close, he'll switch to shotgun or pistol)

Luke could hear more shooting coming from the motel roof as well as from inside the wreckage itself as he turned back to take aim at one of the five crawlers through his scope.

(Luke, you still have a shot coming from last round that you didn't take, and you can shoot again this round, so you can shoot twice right now.)
