Harris while quickly put one finger up to his mouth to sign for "quiet" and will alert Ruby to his presence there. Once Ruby is awake enough to listen, he will whisper,
"Miss Ruby, this woman here is hurt, but there is a dangerous man out there headed this way. I need you to try to staunch the blood from that wound while I take care of the threat. Don't pull out the metal yet, that will cause a gush, we need to have time to deal with that."
With that, Harris will use the rock formation as cover, draw his pistol, and will stealthily take aim at the soldier, waiting until he comes within a good range. If the man doesn't come this way though, he won't shoot. No need to draw unwanted attention.
Ruby pulls a couple of carefully folded hankies out of a small pouch at her waist and packs them around the piece of metal and applies pressure, blood squeezes out between the tiny woman’s fingers. The French woman gasps and her eyes flutter open, "
It’s okay Miss, " Ruby whispers, "
it’s okay, Ruby’ll take care of you. "
"
Mister Darrington, have you seen my mistress?"
The soldier stops as Ruby speaks and looks in your general direction.
You take careful aim, lining him up in your sights as he starts to move in your direction and squeeze off the shot.
OOC:
You get one success, the guy is unaware of where you are so it hits and does 2 lethal damage to him.
"
Hier drüben! Hier ist jemand!"

Donovan mentally berates himself for being impatient. On the other hand, he now knows that there is more than one man close by. He's not positive, but he would guess that they are speaking German. It's definitely not French or Spanish.
Donovan stays still and quiet, waiting for the man above him to continue on.
Donovan lays there quietly for a moment that feels like an hour, the boards above him creak and groan as the man moves about and then there’s a shot close by followed by a man shouting.
"
Hier drüben! Hier ist jemand!"
Who ever is above him suddenly runs off in the direction of the shot.

"Well of course I can't find my bag..." George mutters pocketing the pepperbox and goes to the woman with the bag. Hearing the report of a gunshot he starts moving crouching a bit.
Better to toss the bag if they're looking for it then both get shot... he thinks attempting to toss the bag to someplace he would currently have a vantage at looking at it before assessing the woman to see if she's alive or injured.
Shuffling across the ledge George gets to the woman and rolls her over to check her out, something hard pokes him in the belly and there’s the sound of a pistol hammer being cocked. "
Not so fast sweet pea," she whispers, "
Bist du mit diesen Jungs zusammen?"
She watches your reaction carefully, "
No, don’t Deutsch sprechen so I suppose not. Umm hun, would you be so kind as to remove your hand from my..." The blonde woman glances down and George realizes he has one hand firmly placed on this woman’s right breast.
Before he can react there’s a shot from down in the wreck followed by a man shouting.
"
Hier drüben! Hier ist jemand!"
