Jack came running down the hall, a rifle in hand as he aimed two shots that missed Jasik and hit the guards easily. "Got your back. Lacey's working on the doors.."
Violet aimed her first shot easily, but one of the guards landed a well-aimed shot that hit her right shoulder. Ignoring the sudden pain, she shot the second in the head. "Lacey, what's the stat on the doors?"
"3-2-1! Cracked it, closing soon, charging."
"Copy that." A red light flashed by all entrances, telling them they had 3 minutes before they closed. Violet's jacket was starting to darken as her shoulder bled. It took her only one minute to realize it was a sedative bullet, because her vision was faltering. Another shot rang in the air and a bullet missed Violet's head by inches. Acer came running behind her and fired a pistol shot at the guard. "I told you to stay back!" She said, firing a shot at another guard who hit the ground. The door started to come down and she stepped back.
"You're hurt. I saw the shot." He said, hitting another guard in the chest, they were cleared out front by the time the door completely closed.
Violet shook her head. "Lucky shot, recoil took too long." She said simply, standing up slowly and walking towards her room. She ignored Lacey's sudden apologies about not closing the door fast enough. Closing the door behind her, Violet sat on her bed and slipped out of her jacket. She picked up a roll of gauze from her shelf and wrapped it gently, well enough to last a few hours. Her grey tank-top was slightly stained on the right. She laid back and her mind started to drift.
As soon as Violet had disappeared, Acer went to find Jasik. "Hey, Violet...is..." he broke off, trying to regain his breath from sprinting from one side of the long base to the other.
