Okay. There are...a lot. Maybe thirty? Not good.
I'm fine with ammo, but Caren...I won't be able to dodge and reload like usual with her. We'll have to run!
They ran and ran, Rushuna keeping her senses tuned, trying to feel the attack. Smell the anticipation. Taste the tension.
They're not far away...maybe just ar

"GET DOWN!"
Letting go of Caren, she aimed up and fired a quick shot into the leaping set of jaws, watching it tumble to the ground and twitch in its enforced slumber.
A decoy!
She spun and shot thrice more, an arc of as many crabs skidding to a stop, stunned. For how long, she wasn't sure...just hopefully long enough.
Two bullets left.
Four more crabs, with more on the way. Still a ways off...
Stepping a bit away from Caren, she took aim and skipped her shots off one crab's head, bringing it down. The other three got perhaps ten feet closer before she reloaded and fired six more quick shots, six cracks matched by six more as they smashed a leg here, knocked a head down there.
There were more!
She reloaded again, but gathered Caren up. "Let's go!" she called out, starting to run again.

Caren couldn’t speak, dazed by sheer amazement by what Rushuna had done. She had moved so fast and elegant as she’D aimed and fired that…that Boom Stick at those monsters. Caren couldn’t believe her eyes, Rushuna was amazing, just like that time she protected her from the Bad Man.
‘She can do anything…’
A little shaken up Caren was taken off guard when Rushuna pulled her up and they began to run again, rushing through the streets like there was no tomorrow. Running was very tiring, Rushuna was still going strong; however Caren didn’t know how much longer she could keep going.
It was just a little further, she could make it, and she could-
Trip
Maybe not.
Thud
“AAAH!”
More scurry from behind, shrieking, screaming for blood. They’re going to eat her, They were going to eat her and Rushuna!
“H-Hel, Help!”
