Main group

[kabukiman]

5 AM, west of Innsmouth.
Sixteen soldiers, some civilians and one woman are walking as silent as possible in the frozen Manuxet river. The only sound they hear is the wind. In the narrow gorge, it’s impossible to see the city. They all know their objectives: the center of a cult, and the house the leaders. Nobody knows exactly why the attack. Some say it’s because the locals are smuggling liquor, others that they are a net of Bolshevik spies. Nobody knows for certain. Even more strange, is the presence of a woman here. It seems she is a journalist, but why not send a man. Near bridge, one group goes for the mansion and another to the church.

[ImpInTraining]

Patrick “Leprechaun” O’Brien continues heading for the mansion with the others that are in his group, remaining quiet for the moment.

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa Valentine walks with the Marines towards the Marsh Mansion, moving stealthily, her head held high. She is sure that the articles she had written following her last visit to Innsmouth and the evidence she had brought back are what prompted this raid, and now she has the astounding opportunity to be here to see all of her hard work finally bearing fruit and justice being done - and even to help make it happen. And afterwards, she would have an even greater story to tell. Her knowledge of Innsmouth was plenty to justify including her on this mission. She knows that her father must be proud of her - but also worried sick. This is the closest she could possibly come to going off to war, and she is counting on the Marines to keep her safe.

OOC,Do I still have the things I had in the previous part of the adventure, particularly the shotgun and fighting knife?

[Laraqua]

Private First class George Bullseye Williams keeps his eyes peeled for trouble. He's not particularly bothered by the woman's presence. As far as he's concerned, she's made a dumb decision but it's hers to make. Part of him hopes she'll tear her dress in an attractive manner but mostly he figures that she'll either be smart enough to avoid getting killed or dumb enough to die without getting in their way.

[kabukiman]

Allyssa,yes

Your group is walking on the dark. Luckily, you don't have to make any climbs; near the docks, there are some stairs that help you climb easily.
All make a listen roll please.

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa can't hear a thing.

[ImpInTraining]

Patrick was listening to his own footfalls, and failed to hear anything more.

[kabukiman]

The group is walking and suddenly you find a group of people (5). They seem to be taking some prisoner who is screaming . Both group are frozen for a minute, and then your comander orders you to attack. But you all know that you cannot use any fireweapon until you reach the objective, so, you will have to use bayonets and knifes.

[ImpInTraining]

Patrick doesn't waste any time. He's got a lot of pent-up frustrations anyway, what with being a redhead and all. So he jumps into action and attacks the nearest fellow from the other group (not the one screaming). His attack is clumsy and telegraphed and he misses completely.

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa grips her fighting knife with fierce determination as she advances on one of the five people who is trying to hold onto the prisoner. She stabs the kidnapper, causing a significant wound.

[kabukiman]

The one attacking Patrick isn't very competent too.

The other attacking Alyssa (with his fists) seems that he had been affected by his wound and fails.

New rolls please.

[Mr. Handy]

Fueled by rage and disgust at the evil denizens of Innsmouth, Alyssa stabs her attacker through the eye, driving the blade into his brain.

[ImpInTraining]

Patrick grins menacingly as the other man attacks at him sloppily. He retaliates with a well-placed knife thrust in the opponent's bread basket doing significant damage.

[kabukiman]

Th men Patrick attacked fails again.

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa pulls her knife out of the fallen man's eye and turns to help Patrick by stabbing at the guy with the shovel, but she misses by inches.

OOC,This is assuming the one I was fighting is down; otherwise I'll just keep attacking that one.

[kabukiman]

Mr Handy,don't worry, he is really dead. Or at least he dropped to the ground

[ImpInTraining]

Patrick kneels beside the fallen man and puts his knife against his throat, pulling it across and digging it down deep. He wanted to make sure this guy wasn't getting up again.

[kabukiman]

The figth was very quick, and without any noises (or injuries).
Suddenly you hear several gunshots far away.

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa looks to the commanding officer to see what he will order as she wipes the blade of her knife clean of blood and gore.

[kabukiman]

-Help that poor fellow- he points to the prisoner- and tell him to shut up, we don't need any more atraction.
