"Good thinking!" Checkmate says, and follows Wyvern into the tree-house.

As you 4 climb into the tree house you realize the place wasn't made for four adults. Before you can change your mind you notice that on the walls of the tree house are printed pictures with what look like spirits in them. Scary spirits. A strange language, similar to hieroglyphs, is written all over in black sharpie. Lu looks out the small wooden window and sees there are three, no wait, four ghouls hiding in the house. He also notices that the background count in this place is pretty crazy. He has strong feelings of loneliness overwhelming him. Wyvern looks around and she sees the car about a block away.
No worries Marithyme! Just wanted to know what was up.
Game mechanics. Lu has -2 dicepool because of the background count. If you run to the car it would take a net of 6 successes. This might mean it takes more than one round to accumulate the total successes. Or do something else?

Pointing at the house, "I see at least 4 ghouls waiting for us there. We have to choose fast, we stay or we fight. If we fight, I'll go down to attract them and you open fire when you can." Lu makes sure his katana is ready to be drawn as soon as he is down and then centers himself to augment his awareness and defense.

"You young bucks might make it, but I don't like my chances of outrunning them. I think we missed our chance by climbing up here," Checkmate says with a sigh.
He settles down as comfortably as he can in the cramped quarters of the tree-house, clicks on the vision magnification on his contacts and clicks off the safety on his gun.
"If you're going down, I'll do my best to keep them off you," to Lu.
Damnit, Ray, you just had to get mixed up with the fraggin' ghouls...

Cheese eye looks at Lu with amazement. "You're going down there alone?!" He pulls out a Rugersuperwarhawk from the back of his pants. Now you think about it he was walking funny. "Well... I need to keep up my reputation as a smuggler. Transfer 200 nuyen to my account right now and I'll back you up."

Lu looks up at Cheese eye and makes a sly smile,"I'll take you up on the offer and add another drink, if we survive..." Then Lu climbs down and draws his blade and yells towards the ghouls, "Come on guys, who wants some prime awakened meat. First come, first serve ! You don't want to miss this deal !!!"

Wyvern pulls out her Ares V. She takes aim as Lu descends the rickety little stairs with Cheese Eye. As soon as he lands on the weedy yard the ghouls are already on him. Before they start to rip into Lu's flesh Cheese Eye manages to yell "They are mindless with bloodlust. Watch yourself!!!"

Seeing the ghouls charge, Lu thinks to himself, "Ok Lu, got to make sur they stay on you. Best way to do that is to stay alive. Concentrate on defense like you learned and when you see an opening, strike."

Full Defense: -10 init, add willpower to defense for rest of combat turn.
Lu will delay his attack right after Wyvern.
Just making sure, I am calculating this right ? I'm not forgetting anything ?
Actual defense: Reaction(7) + Intuition(6) + Combat sense power(3) + Combat sense spell(3) + Willpower(5) - Wounds(2) = 22d6

Cheese eye shoots one coming straight for him. The bullet hits the ghouls chest putting a large hole in him. But he keeps coming. Three of the ghouls go straight for Lu with their claws. They seem more animal than human giving in to their raw hunger. The shot ghoul goes for Cheese Eye raking his claws across his chest and face. Blood and gore ooze from his skin.

Blades and lead fly at the ghouls. In their blood lust the ghouls let their guard down. The first wounded ghoul is taken down by Wyvern and a second ghoul takes a sword blade to the belly and then is finished off by burst of lead from Checkmate. Two more ghouls remain. They scream and grunt in hunger and frustration.
