>"Out in the open, eh? I knew ya weren't a coward, Ruckus! Ya gonna surrender? The Prez says ta go easy on ya if ya just hand it over!"

I learned long ago t'never trust a word of what comes outta Bostic's mouth. He'd push his own 'takers off a cliff if someone paid 'im for it.

Three 'gainst one. Bad odds. I was gonna have to think fast. I scanned the area 'round me, sized up m' options.

Now... what did I do next?

1) Decided t' dive into one o' the buildins' behind me. There was no tellin' if someone was in there who'd get caught in th' crossfire, but I had t'risk it.
2) Hopped th' fence nearby, hoped to make a run fer it. Might be able to pop off a couple shots before one o' their flares burnt through, but I'd have t' get movin' quick once I was back there.
3) They weren't gonna quit 'til either I gave up or died, unless I fought 'em off. I was a lick spryer than most, figured I'd dodge their shots as best I could.
4) They were bad odds all right, so I had t' even 'em up a li'l. Up on th' rooftops behind me I'd have cover n' a good angle to lay down some fire on 'em. No tellin' how it'd play out if they got up there too, though.
5) I musta been off m' rocker fer even thinkin' 'bout it, but I had t' get close. Even the Buckle Bros. weren't crazy enough t' fire off flares at short range. Gettin' up in their faces would even the odds a bit, I reckoned.
6) I was fed up with it. President wanted th' seed so bad, fine, she could have it. Can y' blame me? S'not like it was gonna end up any different than th' others anyway. I just wanted t' rest n' forget about it all.

Climb into the building behind you. If there's anyone in there, let 'em know to get down and stay down until the shooting's over. From there, if they got a roof access inside, take it up. If not, flip a table, use it at cover.

The building is probably farther away than your enemies, so i'm going with 5.
Can you shoot the small guy while running to the tall one? then maybe you can overpower the tall and use it as a humanthing shield against the other farther away guy.

If you don't think you can overpower the dudes, then yea, 4 i guess.

5. Yet somehow, you lived to tell the tale!

Th' thought o' bum rushin' the Buckles 'n usin Harp as some kinda shield crossed m'mind, but Bostic woulda just vaped th' three of us. Best t' surprise 'em 'n get t' high ground. Landed a flare between me 'n them so it'd churn up a big dust cloud while I made m' escape.

I dove into th' inn behind me, tumblin' as I hit th' floor.

thokthokthokthok

Good thing I got in there when I did, 'cause the Bros. opened fire th' moment that dust cloud got kicked up.

Got to th' bar at the back 'n kicked up a table fer cover. I looked beside me, an' sure enough, there was a ladder to the roof, and--

Aw, hell. Th' owner was still in there. I recognized 'im--he was one o' th' guys Bostic had me shake down fer protection all th' time.

An' he remembered me too, not th' friendly sorta rememberin' either. M' cover was prolly about to be blown, just as soon as I'd set it up.

1) I didn't have time t' deal with 'im. I just scrambled up that ladder, fast as I could muster. Hopefully Bostic 'n the Bros. scared 'im more than he hated me.
2) I just socked 'im one real good in th' mouth and got up to the roof. Not like we were on good terms anyway. Couldn't stick around to see if I K-O'ed 'im.
3) No time fer bein' the good guy. A flare to th' face 'n that was that. Had t' hope that didn't give away m' position.
4) Felt sorry fer the guy, stuck like this, with me of all folks, but couldn't afford t'be nice. Nailed 'im between th' eyes with m' screwgun--wasn't gonna be pleasant fer him, but he'd be okay once it wore off. But I had t' let it cool down before I could use it again on Bostic 'n the Bros.
5) M' only hope was that this guy was th' forgivin' type. Raised a finger to m' lips n' shushed 'im, hookin' a thumb outside. Tried to mouth th' words, "gonna kill Bostic," to 'im, but there was no tellin' if he got th' message.
6) ___________

5 of course, someone like him would think Christmas had come early if he could get all the thugs threatening him to kill each other.

>>669840
5, assuming you haven't done anything too major. Otherwise, I suggest 4.

2) Rock 'em sock 'em barkeep.

>>669840
How fast does the screwgun recharges? Anyway, go for 2, he is already angry and I dont know if he will even listen to your thing.

5, absolutely.

Balled up m' fist without thinkin', ready to suckerpunch th' bartender, but then I caught m'self. Had t' quit thinkin' like that, I wasn't th' muscle no more. I'd done a lot t' piss th' guy off somethin' fierce in th' past, but fer some reason I had a hunch I could trust 'im t' keep 'is mouth shut. Raised a finger to m' lips n' shushed 'im, hookin' a thumb outside. Tried t' mouth th' words, "gonna kill Bostic," to 'im.

He just stared at me, mad as fire, but 'e didn't make any moves. Bostic's corpse musta been more enticing to 'im than mine. Didn't stop me when I pulled th' ladder down 'n climbed up to th' roof, neither.

Up on th' roof I got on m' belly n' snaked m' way t' cover. Peekin' over, I could see that th' flare was about spent n' the dust cloud was clearin' up. Th' Buckle Bros. were makin' their way over to th' row o' buildings--Dak was stompin' over, swingin' 'is irons 'round like a madman, but Harp was playin' it cool. He was th' one t' really watch out fer. Dak was a lousy shot who made up fer it by slingin' flares all over th' place, but 'is brother was a real sharpshooter. Bostic was still hangin' back in the distance. Th' fat bastard always did prefer t' let other folks fight 'is battles for 'im.

Fer some reason I found m'self wonderin' bout how long th' screwgun would take t' recharge. Nerves must've been gettin' t' me, I knew good 'n well screwguns were unpredictable like th--

>"Hey! Bostic! He's hidin' in there!"

Shit. It was th' barkeep. Sounded like he went out front, but I couldn't see 'im.

1) He sold me out. I knew I shoulda socked 'im good. I was gonna have t' get down there 'n take 'im out.
2) It was risky, but I figured I could prolly jump th' gap to th' next building. Keep 'em guessin'.
3) M' cover was blown. No choice but t' open fire on th' Buckle Bros. while I still had th' element o' surprise.
4) Th' Buckles were prolly headin' inside real soon, an' that'd be th' perfect chance t' plant a flare right in Bostic's face. Wasn't too sure I could stick th' shot from that distance, though.
5) Never a good idea t' think all hasty-like. It was best t' wait 'n see what happened next.
6) They were distracted. Perfect time t' drop off the back ledge of th' roof n' hightail it.

Hate to say I told ya, but I told ya.

3. Target Harp, he's the most dangerous one.

3. It will take them a few moments to realize you are now on top instead of inside, so use them to gun for the accurate one.

TGChan: assuming the best of people brings out the worst ideas.

5/3: Knew we shoulda socked the barkeep, but we could make it work for us if his information becomes mis-information. They think we're in there, but we're opening fire on them from the roof. Wait til they're inside, then shoot Harp with the screwgun. Take out Dak second, with another gun of course.

Wait a second. Where did the barkeep indicate? Is he pointing out a different spot than where you actually are? Maybe he's helping.
