Hawley found himself loudly cursing, again, as another explosion stopped him in his movements. His free arm flying up to cover his face as he stepped back somewhat, turning two-toned eyes up he glanced at the window they seemed to be coming from.

Adam had been silently making his way around the other side of the lighthouse, when a loud explosion seemed to sound on the other side of the building. Stopping, Adam tried to figure out what it could be.

Surely nobody's got grenades, right?

He wiped the sweat from his brow. This was turning into quite an eventful day indeed.

OOC: Guys, Molotov Coktails don't explode. When the glass breaks, the gas goes through the area, and when it touches the burning rag, the immediate area bursts into flames, making th eMolotov an effective incendiary weapon.

(( ooc: Yeah, but I really don't think Hawley's checking this out. >> You know, with the whole being attacked thing. And because of the way that a MC works, someone who doesn't know how they work (like my character) besides without the sound of an explosion. Someone could easily mistake for something that does explode. Such as a grenade... so something. ))

OOC: Either way, can we find a quick way to drive Jacon and Uriel out of the lighthouse? I'm scheduled to do a character-killing at the river.

(( ooc: Sounds wonderful, I'm scheduled for two killings here. So it won't be good for them to show up while we're still in the middle of a fight. :3 Be kinda a hard to do what I need to do. ))

(( ooc: Forgot to sign out of orange's account there before replying. Whoops... ))

OOC: why were you in her account in the first place?

(( ooc: We live in the same house, share the same computer. So when where bouncing up and down, so each of us can reply to where we need to be. Sometimes we forget to sign out before the other hops on, this is one of those cases. ))

OOC: Oh. Thought of how to get Jacob out yet? I'm out of ideas short of walking out the door and getting shot.

(( ooc: I'll just have Hawley shot at the window, maybe in the panic when the window breaks Jacob could knock over one of the MC and starts a fire, and kinda starts a chain reaction with them. *shrug* ))

Growling lowly, he pulled the gun into both hands and aimed toward the window. Breathing in lightly, Hawley moved his finger to the trigger and pulled back, hoping it would find the window.

The Molotov Jacob had been about to throw exploded in his hand when the shotgun blast hit it, covering his left arm in a horrible burn. Realizing now was the time to retreat, he told Uriel to meet him at the river and went through the lighthouse, climbing out one of the broken windows and knocking Alan out of the way. There was nothing he could do but flee for now.

Smirking to himself, Hawley dropped his aim and made his way back to the front of the lighthouse. "Bloody hell..." He said sourly as he took note of the knocked out Alan, making his over to the other boy he dropped into a crouched position. Hitting him lightly on his cheek that wasn't on the side with the slash.

"Hey Alan... come on now, get up."

"Damn, that guy had one hell of a punch. Y'know, I think that was that Jacob kid I was talking about back at the clinic." Alan said, getting to his feet with a breif struggle.

Adam slowly crept around the other side of the lighthouse and then when he heard the shotgun blast, decided - the hell with stealth. He ran around the other side and was surprised to see just Hawley and Alan, no more noise at all inside of the lighthouse.

"You guys okay? Alan...your face..."

Adam looked at the cut on Alan's face and winced. It looked deep, it looked bloody, and most of all, it made Alan look more menacing. Adam couldn't help but grin a little. As compared to Hawley with his bloody knee (and, Adam noticed, his burnt arm), and Alan with his sliced-up face, Adam looked relatively normal and unscathed in his blue jeans and Leafs jersey.
