'..you might want to get away from the door..' Newton points soldier at door to move away..'get some obstacles near door...what is behind door, soldier?' Newton trying to make sense of what soldier blabbering about...
Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
"You don't want to know," mumbled the soldier as he started dragging a table over to barricade the door. "You don't want to know..." More horrified screams came from outside.
A woman emerged from an interior door into the lobby, wearing only a lavender slip. Though her red hair was disheveled and she was obviously groggy from just having been awakened, she was pretty even so. "What's going on?" she asked Salem, rubbing her eyes. "I heard gunfire and screaming."
"Miss, we're here to protect you," Salem told her. "We may need to evacuate the inn. I need you to gather the other guests and bring them to the lobby. Do you think you can do that?"
"Hang on a bit! Just who the devil are you and what's happening?"
"I'm Captain Salem Shields, and there's no time to explain. We're all in terrible danger!"
"Why should I believe a word you say? You lot came storming in here shooting off your guns and waking me out of a sound sleep! For all I know, you're the danger!"

Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
'... Where is your squad, soldier?', Newton insists on knowing more... 'Please, step away from door, if you don't want to answer my questions?..l can find out myself...' Newton equips Rifle and moves towards door in attempt to open the door.
Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
"Please, Miss," said Salem to the redhead. "Your life depends on following our instructions, and the lives of everyone else here."
"Why not just pull the fire alarm?" she asked.
"Because then they'll flee every which way and end up right in the middle of it. The front door is the only safe way out right now."
Bursts of automatic gunfire came from outside, from the direction of the car park. "In the middle of what? It sounds like World War Three out there!"
"In a manner of speaking, it is."
"You mean the Russians are landing?!"
"It's worse than that."
"Well, I don't believe a word you're saying! I'm staying right here!" She put her hands on her hips.
"They're inside that thing!" cried the soldier in the restaurant. When Newton moved for the back door and started pulling the table away, the soldier looked even more terrified. "No, don't open it! We'll be killed!" No sooner had Newton removed the barricade than the door was split apart by green scaly claws. Standing on the other side of the door were two Sea Devils, looking every bit as hideous as he had expected they would. They were over seven feet tall, wearing silver string vests and carrying sharp spears and fishing nets. At the same time, every rear-facing window shattered, and more Sea Devils began to clamber through them.

Newton still recovers from blow to door, equips rifle again..'Brian get the lady and move everyone out until we hold them off..and tell everyone to run past the front door..'..Newton gets steady grip on rifle and bursts a round towards one of rare facing window.

Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
Newton fired bursts at the Sea Devils climbing in through one set of windows, while the soldier with him fired at the two coming in through the other pair. Each of them hit and downed one of the Sea Devils, and the other two rushed the soldier, thrusting their spears. Unfortunately, nobody was doing anything about the two coming in through the door, and they came right at Newton. Luckily, they all missed.
"What was that?!" cried the woman in the lobby when she heard the sounds from the restaurant. "That came from inside!"
"Get out of here!" yelled Salem. "Save yourself!" He threw open the front door. "We need some help in here!" Then he and the soldier he had rallied rushed into the restaurant with weapons drawn, shocked at the sight before them. They were further horrified when six more Sea Devils burst in, two through the door and four through the windows. There were now a total of ten of them still standing inside the restaurant.

Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
In the chaos of battle, nobody answered Newton's question about Brian, or if they did he couldn't hear it. In any case, there was no sign of him. Newton mowed down one of the Sea Devils in front of him. The soldier who had been in the restaurant with him before blazed away at the two attacking him, cutting them down in a hail of bullets, but then his rifle clicked, its magazine exhausted. The soldier with Salem blanched in terror. He opened fire, but his panicky shooting went wide. Salem only had his pistol, and he wasn't very good with it, for his shots missed as well. Two of the Sea Devils pressed the attack on Newton, while the third one that had come in the door bypassed him and rushed Salem. Each of the two UNIT soldiers in the room was rushed by a pair of Sea Devils. They thrust with their spears, coming close to hitting but landing no blows as yet. More bursts of rifle fire came from behind the inn.
Three more UNIT soldiers entered the restaurant from the lobby, their mouths agape when they saw their foes.

Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
The newly arrived reinforcements recovered quickly from their shock, but they dared not open fire for fear of hitting their comrades in arms. Instead, they drew knives and waded into combat. The soldier near Newton emptied his magazine at the two Sea Devils near him in wild panic, but only one bullet hit each. One fell, but the other remained standing. Salem fired two bullets from his pistol at the Sea Devil attacking him, hitting it in vital areas and slaying it outright. The melee was chaotic, with most of the soldiers and the Sea Devils making ineffective attacks. One soldier, however, filleted the Sea Devil he was fighting, and it collapsed to the floor. Newton discharged his stun prod at his opponent, but it stepped back and avoided the blow before thrusting its spear forward once more, coming close to jabbing him. There were now only four monsters on their feet, and none of the human defenders in the restaurant had taken a scratch. The tide seemed to be turning, but things did not appear to be going so well elsewhere. A man's scream behind the inn turned into an ominous gurgle, and a woman's scream came from the lobby!

Re: IC-Ep 5-SNAFU(Salem/Newton)
The Sea Devil was stunned, but only momentarily. One of the others finally pierced a UNIT soldier with its spear, grievously wounding him! However, he managed to remain standing and fight back. He rammed his knife right through its ribcage, and two other soldiers also scored hits on their opponents. The first Sea Devil fell bleeding to death, the blade still embedded in its heart. The others were only somewhat wounded. Salem ran to the injured soldier's side and expertly treated him. One of the wounded Sea Devils pressed the attack, but it was a little too slow to land a blow. Another agonized scream came from somewhere outside, behind the inn.
The the doors from the lobby flew open. Brian entered first, with his left arm around the redheaded woman's waist and his right locked around her neck. She looked terrified, but she was still in control of herself. Next, another fishy-looking man in swim trunks followed, with his knife to the throat of a Royal Navy sailor in a waterlogged uniform. Last came a female Sea Devil with a gold tiara on her head. She also held a captured sailor, grabbing him by the neck with a claw. "Drop your weapons, or we start killing them!" she demanded. "We have the inn completely surrounded. Your cause is lost. Surrender now and your lives will be spared."
