2. The Bank Job

Dirt turns to look at their three new additions to the posse as the thing sputters to dust.

"He ain’t called Deadshot for nothing, fellas. Best watch out for him!" he says with a wink.

"Hell of a shot, partner!" he calls out to the man. "That bit of acrobatics intentional? You’re putting on a show for the boys here!"

Kane smirks at Dirt, his twisted mouth turning into a hint of a smile. "I s'pose I expected a ribbin' about that," he says over his shoulder. Loading his Sharps, he turns to the group.

"We about ready to storm that train after Ruby does her bit? We can cover 'em both until then."

Ruby draws her pistol with one hand, then grabs and opens the door with the other.

OOC:

To be clear, the Rev was Holding until that door was opened. If he sees literally anything or anyone inside, he's blasting them.

The Train Engine

The engineer isn't human, at least, not now. Now, he's dead, the walkin' dead kind of dead. When you open the door, he snarls and attacks.

Given the Reverend's itchy trigger finger, he can take a shot before fate draws cards.

Note: From the bottom of the water tower, Kane can see what Ruby is doing, but can't see inside the train engine, nor get a shot inside at whatever they see.

The Bank
As the posse of the bank robbers and Dirt gather their wits, the door to the law office bursts open. A lawyerly fella, dressed as such, staggers into the street. He's covered in blood, but something ain't right 'bout him. He looks at the posse, and then at Kane, and then runs for the single man. His shriek of rage is the shriek of a vampire.

Everybody gets a Benny. Reverend gets a free action before everything, but then the engineer will attack him or Ruby before. Kane is first in the lineup with the joker, then the engineer and the lawyer, then Ruby, Dirt, the bank robbers, and the Reverend's second action.

Kane's attention moves from Ruby to the bank entrance and the man running straight at him. Time stands still as Kane registers this ain't no lawyer. No siree. A shot to the heart is what this walking/running dead man needs and nothing less. Raising his Sharps, he points directly at the fiend's heart and squeezes the trigger.

The Reverend unloads the shotgun and it hits the engineer maybe not square, but in the darkness, he sees at least that the dead man shudders under the impact but keeps coming, faster than anyone got with a load of shot ought to be. It lunges for the man looking to tear him apart...

OOC:

That's another horrible roll against one of your characters. I'd suggest a Benny or two to soak Wounds. Cuz as it is, that's Four wounds which is a might bit fatal.

Outside, Kane blasts away at the vamper lawyer... and the creature explodes into dust.

Ruby, and Reverend if he survives, make an Occult roll please.

Dirt Briggs and the dirty diaper gang by the back here gunfire erupt by the train even as Kane puts down the lawyer.

From where he is, Kane can see the engineer emerge from the engine and try and pull off the Reverend's arm.

The Reverend is too slow to avoid the creature's onslaught, and too old to resist its tearing claws and gnashing teeth. Blood flies as the monster tears into the man!

OOC:

One success! So he takes three Wounds, and is Shaken, correct?

Ruby, there's one shot left in the shotgun!

Ruby, who already has her pistol drawn and expected to shoot when he was unaware, fires as it lunges for the Reverand.

OOC:

Three wounds and Shaken yes. The Rev has another action, too.

Ruby fires at the creature but the bullet seems to have no effect on it. It's sturdy as all get out, but what that means she ain't got a clue.

Dirt and the gang are on the other side of the station, so you can't see the train engine much less Rev and Ruby.

Scrambling back, a bloody mess, the Reverend screams and fires his shotgun! But the man is too injured, too terrified, and the blast of buckshot goes wide!

OOC:

Success, so moving back and firing. I didn't think this was a Nosferatu vampire, but sounds now like maybe it is? Called shot -- heart.

Dirt will simply haul ass for his turn then, getting as close to the sound of gunfire as he can. Might even start hootering and hollering, if he comes upon the scene! Draw attention, like!!
