Sara moved into cover. “Probably the Orion we didn’t down. Can’t be a terrific shot if he needed Talkrit 100% exposed. Clear shot from across the room.” She grabbed Haygen. “Help me get an angle on him. If he’s shooting across the room, he’s probably around the corner we didn’t clear.”
-Lt Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO
OOC: Sorry if I wasn’t clear, the hallway is in front of the room - picture a box (room) with a 2x4 on top of it (hall) - the opening (no actual door) is in the middle. the shot came from within the room with the little lizards. As a group, you were outside the room in a hallway. When Talkrit entered the room he became visible to the shooter and that’s when he was fired upon. There was no shot possible from within the room until that time. Nor is there a good shot from outside the room.
To create a good firing shot, one would have to enter the room exposing themselves dramatically. This can be done, at risk, or one can poke their head and arm around the corner probably exposing themselves to a better shot by the hostile than they could get off. You can re-author your action if you want or just press forward.
Talkrit
GMHaygen moved to the area, “We could throw a couple of disorientation grenades into the room. Then move two , two man elements in to secure the room”
Haygen
“How would it affect the youngin’s though? We have to think unconventionally…”
A flash bang grenade generated enough sonic power to disorient a Gorn. A creature that was probably 10 times as hardy as these small lizards. There was no guarantee that it would not do permanent damage to which ever lizards were nearby, and the blast would certainly critically injury any that happened to be on top of it. Given the density of creatures in here, that was almost a certainty.
Kate looked around. “XO, we need to get Talkrit out of here. Can you arrange a medical transport for him out of here? We might have a chance to save him. Maybe.
“Gunny, smoke grenade. Send two men in, one each way. Hopefully we can get him in the distraction. Minimum stun setting only. Distract, and subdue. Understood?”
2nd Lt Hawkins - Marine XO
Gunnery Sergeant Haygen nodded, “Understood, Johnson your with me” Haygen set up on one side of the door as Johnson stood on the other, he prepped the smoke, “On your order Lieutenant”
Haygen
“Ok Talkrit will be going to sickbay, but I’ll be right here.” She surrendered control of the firefight to the Marines. =/\=Kiernan to sickbay, one native for direct transport. He goes nowhere but sickbay.=/\=
-Lt Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO
Talkrit’s eyes drooped as he spoke. “Prop me up and send me in first. I’m dead already.”

=^=Aye Lieutenant, we’ll site to site the native straight to sickbay. Powering up.=^= The transporter room was taking agonizingly long to beam out the native.
“Hold tight Talkrit, we are going to get you through this, and save the young as well.”
Kate looked back over at the Gunny and nodded. “You have a go Gunny.”
2nd Lt Hawkins - Marine XO
One marine peeked around the frame of the doorway before pulling a cylindrical grenade from his pouch, he looked at it for a moment before pulling the pin, releasing the spring, after another pause, he threw the grenade in the direction he suspected the shooter was. The room was massive one grenade would take a while to fill it, but proximity to target was helpful.
Johnson, looked to the sergeant.
