Dan Aldrich,[b]In the upstairs hall-[/b]
As [b]Dan[/b] reached the door, he heard a sudden smacking sound on the other side.

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan Aldrich/Julie/Lara Voronova)
Dan stands in front of the door and takes a deep breath before throwing it open and quickly moving into the room.
Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
Outside the house-
Julie and Lara waited impatiently as the seconds ticked by. It had now been three minutes.
In the child's bedroom-
Raquel waited quietly, daring to hope for the first time. She dried her tears with her arm.
In the master bedroom-
When Dan opened the door, he took in a very disturbing sight. The room on the other side was a bedroom, with a window at the back of the room and one on either side. Against the wall not far from the door, several feet to the right, was a bed, and on top of the bed were two people struggling. Ghost was on top, his belt unbuckled and his fly unzipped. Beneath him he had Zoe pinned with his left arm. The blonde girl was in her late teens. She did not appear to be physically hurt, but she was still in a dire situation. Her hands were cuffed together in front of her, and she wore a red strapless dress, its skirt hiked up almost to her waist.
"I never knew you liked it rough, Zoe," said Ghost as the door swung open. Had Dan been a moment later, there was no doubt in his mind that Ghost would have forced himself on the poor girl. Zoe recognized Dan as the male ranger that she had seen when she had escaped from the van, and he had a rifle in his hands. She felt relief wash over her, but she knew that she wasn't rescued yet...
Ghost turned his head when he heard the door open and saw Dan. With lightning reactions, he drew a pistol from his belt holster with his right hand. He also had an AK-47 strapped to his back.

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
Realizing that he has lost any chance for stealth Dan raises his rifle and fires at Ghost.
Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
In the master bedroom-
Ghost took the round in his thigh. It ripped apart his femoral artery before punching through the back of his stomach and embedding itself in the wall. Blood spurted out from the wound, splattering Zoe in a red fountain. Ghost had obviously been killed instantly and never even knew what hit him. His lifeless body pitched forward, collapsing on top of her.
"What was that shot?" crackled Mutt's voice from the radio on Ghost's belt.
Outside the house-
Lara gasped when she heard the gunshot ring out above. She left Julie's side and ran into the house's open front door.

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
Dan was visibly shaken by the brutality of what he had just done. Killing those monsters was one thing but killing humans was far more disturbing it seemed. In a hushed tone Dan asks Zoe, "Are you ok? Did he hurt you?"

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
After hearing the gunshot, Julie quietly calls after Lara, "Lara, wait!". Julie runs into the house.

"You have no idea what I've been through," Zoe mumbles. She struggles against Ghost's corpse, but, has little effect upon it. Eyes flickering, she appears to faint.Dan asks Zoe, "Are you ok? Did he hurt you?"
Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
In the living room-
The lights in the living room were on, revealing a sofa, coffee table, and TV. As she entered, Julie could see stairs leading up along the left wall. An open door was in the left wall of the living room, beneath the stairs. Light came from within. Another open door through which more light streamed was in the back wall of the living room, and a closed door was in the right wall.
Lara gasped again when she heard something. "Bozhemoi!" she said, running up the stairs. "He's coming back!"
In the child's bedroom-
Raquel flinched when she heard the shot. She didn't know who had shot whom, but either way, she knew she had to get out of there - especially given what she could hear through the open window. She tugged desperately at the metal radiator bar to which she was handcuffed, but it was no good.
In the master bedroom-
Zoe pushed at the dead body on top of her, but Ghost was just too heavy. Blood continued to gush from his wound and all over her legs and the bedsheets. The horror of her situation was finally catching up to her, and she felt dizzy and lightheaded. She had just been saved against all odds, but she wasn't out of the woods yet.
"It wasn't us," said Nitro's voice on the dead man's radio. "Everything's quiet here."
"Ghost, did you fire?" asked Mutt's voice. He paused. "Ghost? You there? Will you stop screwing Zoe for one second and answer me?"

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
Seeing Zoe struggling with Ghosts body Dan moves over to help her roll him off, "Do you know if Ghost has the keys to everyones cuffs?"
Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
[ooc: I think Zoe does know but Tabs has forgotten.]
Reviving she pushes Ghost away, "Uggh!
"Thank you, whoever you are, but, be careful: there are two more of them. They'll kill you if they get the chance."

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
Julie calls to Lara "Wait, will you? Don't get yourself killed!" At the thought of Dan being murdered, Julie drops the calm facade and cautiously, but quickly, heads up the stairs, gun in hand.
Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
In the upstairs hall-
Lara heard Julie call out and stopped, leaning against the wall near the top of the stairs, just as the hall rounded a corner to the right. She stood panting for breath as Julie caught up with her. Around the corner, they could see that the hall had three doors. The first two doors were on the right, and they stood open. A child's bedroom was visible through the first door, and the light was on inside. The second door led to a darkened room that wasn't visible from here. The door at the far end of the hall was wide open. Beyond it was another bedroom, and to Julie's relief Dan was visible through the doorway.
"He's back, he's back," gasped Lara, her eyes filled with dread and panic, and her legs quivered, threatening to give way. "What do we do, Julie? What do we do?" She began to hyperventilate.
In the child's bedroom-
Raquel heard the two women coming upstairs. "Lara?" she asked, still tugging at the radiator uselessly. "Please, get me out of here!"
In the master bedroom-
Working together, Dan and Zoe rolled the corpse off of her, and it fell to the floor on the far side of the bed with a squelching sound - except for the leg, which had fallen off and remained on the bed. Zoe regained her feet. She was still drenched in Ghost's blood. At least it didn't show on her red dress. Both of them heard the women in the hall outside and Raquel's voice coming from the other bedroom.
"Nitro and Deadeye," said Mutt on the radio. "Get your asses over to that small house to the northwest. Doc and Sally, hold down the fort."
"On our way," replied Nitro.
"Roger that," said Doc a moment later.

Re: IC-SWORD-Damsel in Distress(Dan/Julie/Zoe/Raquel/Lara)
ooc- are there any lights on in the hallway near the stairs?
"Julie, Lara get in here and get down. I think Mutt is outside." Dan says towards the open door. Dan begins removing the AK-47 from Ghosts body. Looking to Zoe he whispers, "You're going to have to hang tight for a little while longer. I have to deal with Mutt before I can get you uncuffed."

Zoe:
"All this gore!
"If we survive this, Mr Ranger, we'll have to introduce ourselves properly. Ghost was a bastard, it's a shame his death was so quick. I'll search Ghost and then try to lockpick Raquel's cuffs."

"OK" Julie agrees fervently, and heads into the bedroom, pushing Lara in with her. Upon seeing Ghost, Julie coils back in disgust, "Jesus! What the hell happened?"
