"Oh thank God that you weren't..." Adrian managed to tell Taffy and the man that had run to Taffy's earlier, before Taffy instinctively pulled the trigger of her proud shotgun, the pellets plunging themselves into the concrete wall next to him. Adrian jumped to the side in shock, watching Taffy as she suddenly realized it was just Adrian who had come to help them. When Taffy said back that they were on their way to team up with Twix, the drunk with the hat, for an counter-attack Adrian thought must it have been. Adrian smiled as he saw a light at the end of the tunnel, they could now push back the bandits.

-"We got tourists over here!" a voice from behind the duo shouted out, and with that a bandit came out of Taffy's back door, firing what must have been a musket. The bullet must have hit the man beside Taffy, because he was yelling out in pain and grabbing his ear, but luckily he was able to shoot back at the bandit with his revolver. "Run! I'll cover you! Just run!" Adrian yelled to Taffy and the man, raising his revolver to give them some covering fire. Click. Click. His revolver didn't shoot, and Adrian knew he didn't have time to reload it or just check it, so he quickly placed the revolver back in its holster as he remembered he had a rifle around his shoulder. 

The rifle was a bolt-action rifle, it seemed 20th century from its design, but the most interesting part of it was a box on the right side of the bolt unlike other rifles. Adrian didn't have time to fiddle with it, and lifted the rifle up against his shoulder, aiming at the cover the bandit had ducked in. He pulled the trigger and felt the rifle give off a kick, a satisfying force against his shoulder, and hit the corner of the cover, surely giving the bandit second thoughts on popping his head out. "Come on, run!" Adrian continued to shout, pulling back the bolt and placing another round into the chamber of the rifle, firing another shot. Soon Adrian was behind the man and Taffy who had made their way past him, and after them followed Adrian who by now had emptied the rifle, not knowing how to load it. "Nice to see some friendly faces out here. Name's Adrian Whitestone, what's yours? And any idea how to load this rifle?"
