Monster attack

[fh-anonymous.livejournal.com]

Shots can still be heard down in the town. The troopers seem to be all tied up down there. Which is why it might be disconcerting to anyone watching out the windows to see figures begin rising out of the snow on the lawn of the school. More are moving out of the trees also.

They begin making their way toward the buildings.

[[OOC: If people choose to leave the building to fight, please organize yourselves into groups (preferably in the gym thread) and post your location in the subject line. This will make it a lot easier for me to keep track of everything.]]

Sharon dodged away from the fins, getting better at running in the snow. She veered away from the foxhole, figuring splitting them up would at least give her a fighting chance. "This was stupid, this was stupid, this was so frakking stupid," she repeatwed under her breath. Oddly, she didn't seem to be losing her breath, but she figured she just hadn't gotten tired enough.

Glancing over her shoulder, she noticed at least one of the fins close behind and figured there wasn't anything else to do but turn and wait.

Sam noticed the fin chasing after Sharon, and fired at it.

The gunfire causes the shark to pause long enough for Sharon to whip the thermos out and down, breaking through the snow and smashing through the head, making it fall into a pile of nothing but snow.

Not waiting to see if it stays 'dead', Sharon gave up her divide and conquer plan and ran back towards the foxhole, dropping into it a few moments later with a semi-breathless, "Thanks!"

Shep sees Sharon bound into their foxhole just as he finishes zipping up.

"Oh hey, fancy seeing you again."

"Yeah. The whole divide and conquer thing?" Sharon waves a hand, completely oblivious to the zipping thing. "Not so good when you're weaponless."

She glances at Sam and frowns at the blood on her, "She doesn't look so good."

Shep glances over at Sam. "Friendly fire," he explains. "Poorly aimed coffee mug."

He debates explaining that while it might be a little harder for the ladies... Sharon wasn't necessarily weaponless.

Sadly, Shep might have to use pretty plain language. Sharon's a bit panicky. And might just laugh in his face. "We could use coffee..."

Shep smiles at her. "I think I did. It was this morning's." He waits to see if she does the math... or in this case, the biology.

Luckily, Sharon hasn't had biology. Though her brain is logical enough to slowly start working through and grasping exactly what Shep is suggesting. And when the idea finally does make it to the surface, she simply gapes at him.

"I-but--er, I mean..." She flails for a second, before saying firmly, "No. No. Ew." Even if he has a point.

"Hey it worked!" he says defensively. "I wanted to use blood, but Carter over there thought... other fluids would be better. I do have to say... it's easier to aim her way."

Re: Outside the dorms

[sharon-valerii.livejournal.com]

"Blood would have been worse--losing too much would have put you out of commission." Sharon pauses, unable to believe she's even considering this. No. Definitely not. "There has to be a better way. Rain? Sunshine? Fire... Matches?"

"Sorry... fresh out." He smiles wondering if he can dare her to do it.

"I'd offer you hot cocoa, but I'm fresh out," Sharon mutters, tightening her grip on the thermos. It was, after all, the only weapon she was currently considering...
