14.6.15.3

As Robert dove for cover, pain shot from his left arm as the attacker hit his mark. "Agh!" Robert yelled out. 'It's a good thing I'm right-handed,' he thought.

Thinking fast, he reached into his bag's drawstring side pocket and pulled out a bottle of oil that he brought for emergencies like this one. Taking out a small piece of cloth, he opened the bottle, stuck in the cloth, and lit it with the torch.

From behind his cover, he stood up and got a better look at where the attackers were. Seeing some people in the back of the room with strange weapons, a puff of smoke came from one of them as another loud *BANG* rang through the room. The projectile whizzed dangerously close, but it didn't hit Robert. It bounced off the wall and landed behind Robert's cover.

Robert lobbed the improvised weapon at the attackers. The bottle crashed into the one in the middle, and splashed onto another one nearby. The victims let out screams of agony as the flames engulfed them.

Robert quickly picked up and pocketed the projectile. He ran to Mara's side and helped her up with his good arm. "Lean on me! We're getting out of here!" he yelled to her over the men's wailing. One of the guards fired another shot as others ran to aid their burning allies. Surprisingly, he missed his targets by a lot.

As the two of them made their escape, Robert reached into a belt pouch and dropped caltrops to slow down any chasers, if any of them did decide to pursue them. Throughout the tunnels, he dropped more around corners where guards wouldn't see them.

''Rolled a 14 for Robert getting hit, 6 for the next shot, and 3 for the last. 15 was for the bottle of oil.''
