I'd like to go find the Major and tell him about the new murder and the escape.

Re: Ch.13a. All Unquiet on the Western Front (Alex, Lawrence, William)
Catching up with the others, Alex quickly realizes the severity of their problems.
"Damn it. Are we assuming Carter is involved in this? We still have to find him, but we should probably put the word out. If nothing else, this should convince the Major there's a wider conspiracy at play here, and maybe give us some help. Though I'd suggest trying to position Gibbings as a German spy than talk about anything that could get us thrown in here ourselves.

"William, you go and alert the Major, then run back to the ruined chapel as fast as you can. Tell him whatever you want about Gibbings; you're a better talker than any of us, and whether he's a spy or a lunatic, Gibbings still murdered a guard." Lawrence breathlessly commands, before turning to the detective.
"Reynolds, we're going to get into that crypt under the church, and we're going see if it's even possible to stop this ourselves. I've seen what those lunatics can do, using rituals to call up their demon-gods; we can't spare any time to let that happen. Do you still have your gun or any other weapons on you?"

"Hobble, more like," says William, indicating his crutches, though he starts heading for the Major as fast as he can.

"Unfortunately I don't," Alex says. "Lost it back in the 70's." An unhinged giggle escapes him at the absurdity of that statement. He glances down at the corpse to see if it still had any weapons on it.

"This will have to do," Alex says, retrieving the bayonet. "Though we should expect Gibbings to be armed with the guard's rifle."
Re: Ch.13a. All Unquiet on the Western Front (Alex, Lawrence, William)
William heads for where they had heard voices, reasoning that whoever is there would know where to find the Major.

"That means we'll have to get it out of his hands as soon as possible. I'm a good shot with a rifle, myself, so if we can get the drop on Gibbings and take the gun, I could hold him and Carter at gunpoint until the Major sends some men over." Lawrence states in a low whisper, looking at his stolen fireplace poker; it had seemed like a much better weapon when there wasn't the possibility of Gibbings having a gun, but it would have to do.

"Sounds like the best plan we have at the moment," Alex says, looking around.
Re: Ch.13a. All Unquiet on the Western Front (Alex, Lawrence, William)
"Maybe I can help, I've had some first aid training," says William. "I need to talk to him anyway. There's been another murder. Someone killed the guard outside the lock-up and sprung Gibbings. Then they headed for the ruined chapel. We need to get some soldiers down there fast."

"I can at least bring him bandages and such," says William. "Just tell me where to find them."

"He must be the one with the gun." Lawrence speaks in the smallest of whispers, his voice scarcely raised above a breath. He crouches down and looks around, searching for some cover he could hide behind. "I'm not sure how to deal with this, but we've got the numbers advantage here. If he spots just one of us, the other can still come up and get the drop on him."

"While exposing the other one of us to a risk of getting shot," Alex points out. "But I suppose we don't have a choice.
"Perhaps one of us should flank him and cause a distraction. He turns around to investigate and then I'll take him from behind."

"You can use every pair of hands you can get," says William, but his pleas fall on deaf ears. "Who's second in command, after the Major?"

"I'll see what I can do. Best of luck, Alex." Lawrence gives a sober nod and picks up a handful of dirt, rubbing it on his face in a crude attempt at camouflage, before he begins his slow approach towards the guard's position.
