Richard is slammed onto his back. Even though it's dark outside, it gets darker. Much darker. He sees a pinpoint prick of light ... and then ... nothing.

Shayna knows that the Walker ahead of her is doom as much as a bullet, and even as she hears Richard get hit, she had seen her share of shit. Now is not the time to lose her head and make things worse by ignoring the biggest threat. She's not heartless, not being able to make sure he's okay right away tears at her inside, but nonetheless she lunges at it with her spear, silently aiming for its head.

"Richard!" Billie-Faye screams uncharacteristically when the shotgun booms and her friend drops -- hard. There are growls from all sides... they're all separated, she lost track of Owen after shushing him... she doesn't even see Shayna... this is going to fucking hell in a handbasket in a hot minute!
So, despite what seems like the larger threat of walkers all around, Billie grits her teeth, takes aim at where she saw the shotgun flash -- and fires! And fires, and fires, intent on putting the fucker down!
Edit: Forgot to add +2 for the Pistol!

Where we stand…
This time, the walkers will also be attacking you! It’s the contested roll we did in the forest! You need enough successes to keep them off you!
You can fight the guy, but the zombies will get an attack on you at the end of the round. It’s… tough.
Billie Faye has already shot at the guy and missed!
Owen and Shayna are up! What’s your action?

The walker comes on, and it’s all Shayna can do to aim her spear for its head and push! Blood clouds her vision, but in the life or death moment… her aim is perfect! Shayna sends the tip of her spear up through the brain. Momentum and weight send the thing sliding down the first third of Shayna’s spear, before it falls off to the side and into the bush. Dead dead…
The forest is alive with rustling bushes and walker snarls! Owen, Shayna and Billie-Faye all feel them out there! They are seconds away!
Billie-Faye closes her mind to the undead menace for a moment, intent on getting justice for Richard, her… her something. She fires, but with all the noise, she couldn’t say for sure if she hit the bastard that got Richard or not!

Owen sees that things are going to shit around him, and fast.
think... Think... The shotgun guy attracted the zeds firing at us... But the zeds will want to get at him too.
Hopefully they'll chew on the fucker. We need to stop the zeds first!
With that, he grabs the machete, wincing at his burnt hand but tightening the hilt all the same.
He sees the closest walkers and charges, trying to hack at their heads.

The shotgun thunders again, but this time the shot is aimed away from the cabin!
"Agh!!" you hear, full strangled panic, from the trees off to the right! This stranger was clearly fighting a battle of his own right now!
Owen cuts a bloody swathe through the walkers! He swings, and swings, and swings until the burn on his hand is the least of his worries. His arm aches but it isn’t enough! They keep coming!
One walker lunges out of the night, and gets his hands on Owen’s shoulders! The young man has time enough to get his machete up between its jaws and Owen’s face! It’s a deadly fight to survive the night!
Single Walker Attack for Owen! A skill roll to survive! Two 1s means you’ll need two successes on this roll to see it off!

Shayna is lost into that quiet moment of desperation where you can only fight or die. Her spear is slick with blood but she pushes on, vaguely aware of the fights going on around her. Kill the next one, and the next, forever, and don't think, every ounce of energy directed to the next swing...

Owen pushes the thing off, slipping out from between all the grasping limbs and rushes off around the tree trunk. The thing follows, in its staggering, unsteady way! It had come close to a meal, and wouldn’t be left hungry for long!
Owen rushes on, fixated on the walker giving chase! Too late does he realize that others have closed in around him also! Hands grasping and teeth gnashing from all around, pushing between dark trees to get at the young man and his machete.
Shayna fights and fights and fights! By now, the group is totally fractured! It would be almost impossible to find your way back together over all the noise in the night! Shayna steps back, and back fending the things off with her spear! She catches one of them through the head, but his fall yanks the spear from her hands, and then they are on her!
I need 2d6 from Owen and 2d6 from Shayna! This is a Walker Attack!

Shayna feels the end closing in, hands and claws reach from every direction of the night. While she'll fight until she can't, swinging and pushing for freedom, that last moment draws ever closer.

Shayna swings, and swings, and swings! And the weapon is gone, and all that’s left to her are her limbs… for however long they are left to her! Blind with blood and desperate to live, she strikes out all about her! She hammers at the things! Kicks them back! Pushes them off her and throws them to the forest floor. Blindness now is brought on not by blood but by battle and rage and the will to live.
She hammers at them until she feels something break, or almost break. Panting, she sees bodies strewn about her, and a throbbing pain running up the length of her arm. The pain is too much; blossoming from her head and her limbs. She staggers, and blacks out against a tree trunk!
Shayna is broken. She will come back around in a while, if no one administers first aid. Until then, she’ll be at the mercy of any attacks against her…

The thing slams into Owen, all hands and claws and teeth! They tussle and then Owen loses his footing! He lands hard on the forest floor and the wind is driven out of him!
His ribs ache, and his hand throbs! The thing has no such air to lose and so keeps up his frenzied attack, trying to bite the young man’s throat out! Somehow… somehow, Owen ruins the things brain as they wrestle on the forest floor! It slumps down onto him, and his ribs blossom with pain again! It’s hard to catch his breath as the thing lays dead on him!
Owen has 2 damage, and 5 stress! The five stress shouldn’t factor into things here, provided Owen doesn’t try to use his drive on a roll!

OOC:
New Round:You can’t say for sure what happened to the guy! He could still be a threat. He could be shot dead. He could be gone!
You can act against him on your turn if you so wish! Or you can fight the walkers, or administer first aid to Shayna!
If you act against the walkers, you’ll get 1 success from last round, and the threat has been reduced by 2 due to them attacking you already!
So you’ll only need three successes. Shayna and Richard are down and out right now! Three successes between Billie Faye and Owen, if you choose to fight walkers. One of you will roll twice! The second roll will be at -2!
(One of you could roll three times, and that lets the other try help Shayna! -4 to the third roll!)
Messing up, even if you succeed in beating the walkers, will result in final single walker attacks.

Richard's down, Shayna's down, Owen is under duress. Walkers are everywhere. The dick with the gun might still be out there. The bottom has fallen out of the whole fucking situation, leaving Billie-Faye with no choice but to fight. She knows she'll run her pistol dry fighting this many walkers, so she stuffs the still-warm weapon into the back of her shorts and readies her axe.
"Fight, Owen! Fight!" she shouts as she swings her fire axe this way and that, trying to chop down as many of the slow-moving bastards as she can. "Come on!"
