3-062: At the Front Door to Argyle’s Lodge XII
Oliver plays back the events in his mind:
- He pulled the tab on the flare
- He threw it into the room
- He saw the flare ignite from the bright red light spilling out through the gap in the doorway, but couldn’t see the flare itself
- A second later there was a twin burst of automatic fire from inside the room
- No shots came out through the doorway or hit the door
- There was a pause for about a second
- Then a single burst of autofire sounded and the flare went out
- Alan says he got a look at the left-hand turret in the flare light through the window and it had definitely swiveled and was firing toward the flare
Chis says that Oliver said the flare was supposed to burn for five minutes so he wasn’t in any hurry to shoot.
“I need to run some tests. Only problem is, we’re short on time.”
I’ll head back to the ship, grab the fire extinguishers and throw one in. I plan to look through the window to see what’s happening. DEX Roll 7
