Richard scrabbled for his gun and got to his feet as quickly as possible. A string of curses rushed through his mind as he went for one of the smoke grenades and kicked it back towards the direction it came. Blood rushing and eyes stinging he raised his gun and fired off a few shots in the best directions he could determine. The civilians were scattering quickly, and that wasn't good. "[b]Stay close! Follow me![/b]" He shouted to them and did his best to herd some together and clear a path out. He could only hope that Tess was managing okay.


Rin sprung to her feet, gun immediately brought up and ready to fire. Without even thinking she turned her back to Marcus, knowing he'd have it covered. She fired a few shots off at figures of the enemy rushing through the trees, being as conservative as possible. Close by she heard one of the younger female civilians scream and as she looked over she saw a darkly uniformed figure dragging her off, but she couldn't get a clean shot. She let off a shot or two of cover then sprinted towards them. Swinging her rifle up she hit the man across the face rendering him unconscious. The girl fumbled to her feet. "Follow Richard!" Rin blurted out and returned her attention to the battle. Inadvertently she had put herself in a bad position. The soldiers had tagged her as dangerous and were starting to fire more aggressively at her. She tried to fire and move her way back closer to the others but out of no where a bullet pierced through her shoulder. She grunted in pain but did her best to react as little as possible, her rushing adrenaline aiding her greatly.
