"Thank you, Cesar." She whispered, recalling the handy technique used in episodes of the Dog Whisperer she'd watched. With one problem out of the way, the girl could turn her attention to more pressing matters, namely the many staggering corpses now headed in her direction. Gracie glanced around, quickly sizing up her options. When she saw the mostly empty alley, her choice became a lot simpler. "Come on," she hissed at Toffee, giving him a couple of taps to get him to follow along as she ducked into the alley, stopping as soon as she was out of sight of the shambling horde to size up the few standing between her and a few doors.<br/><br/>Gracie considered trying to duck past the zombies, but that task was not quite so straightforward, especially when she had to keep Toffee by her side. Besides, there was always the chance she'd get grabbed or clawed trying to make her way past. It was then that she decided to take them out of the equation and leave her path clear. Three well-placed arrows to the head, it sounded simple enough, in Gracie's mind. "Sit." She instructed Toffee, reaching behind her back for an arrow at the same time and nocking it on the bowstring. The girl took a deep breath and recalled her father's lessons, holding it in as she drew the bow back, her blue hues focused on the closest shambler, lining up a head shot.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Combat</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 2to the total<br/>Comment: Initiative roll<br/>Result: 10,<br/>Total: 12<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim roll 1, Round 1<br/>Result: 2,<br/>Total: 8<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim roll 2, Round 2<br/>Result: 9,<br/>Total: 15<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6 to the total<br/>Comment: Attack roll 1, Round 2<br/>Result: 9,<br/>Total: 15 = <strong>HIT</strong><br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d8<br/>Comment: Damage roll 1, Round 2<br/>Result: 5,<br/>Total: 5x2=10x3=30 (Piercing, head), 1 Zombie down<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim Roll 3, Round 3<br/>Result: 5,<br/>Total: 11<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 4to the total<br/>Comment: Attack roll 2, Round 3<br/>Result: 4,<br/>Total: 8 = <strong>MISS</strong><br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim roll 4, round 4<br/>Result: 6,<br/>Total: 12<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 4to the total<br/>Comment: Attack roll 3, round 4<br/>Result: 2,<br/>Total: 6 = <strong>MISS</strong><br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim roll 5, round 5<br/>Result: 4,<br/>Total: 10<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 3to the total<br/>Comment: Attack roll 4, round 5<br/>Result: 9,<br/>Total: 12 = <strong>HIT</strong><br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d8,<br/>Comment: Damage roll 2, round 5<br/>Result: 6 x 2= 12x3= 36 (piercing, head) 2 zombies down<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Aim roll 6, Round 6<br/>Result: 6,<br/>Total: 12<br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d10, adding 4to the total<br/>Comment: Attack roll 5, Round 6<br/>Result: 6,<br/>Total: 10 = <strong>HIT</strong><br/><br/>Roll Result: Gracie Evans rolled: 1d8<br/>Comment: Damage roll 3, Round 6<br/>Result: 5,<br/>Total: 5x2=10x3=30 (piercing,head) 3 Zombies dead.<br/></div></div><br/><br/>Releasing the string on her bow, Gracie let loose an arrow, sending the projectile whistling through the air before burying itself into the skull of the nearest zombie, sending it crumpling to the floor while the other two continued staggering towards her. Reaching behind her back for another arrow, Gracie fired another shot, only to see it narrowly miss her target's head before clattering down the alley. "Shit." The girl cursed, as she lined up another shot, which turned out to be worse than the last, missing by some distance as the zombies closed the distance on her.<br/><br/><em>Focus, Grace, focus!</em>The blonde thought, taking in a deep breath as she lined up another shot, letting out a sigh of relief upon seeing it hit its mark, dropping another zombie.<em>Two down, one more to go.</em>Gracie made no mistake with her next shot, burying yet another arrow in the skull of the last remaining zombie, leaving the alley clear, at least for the time being. As much as she'd have liked to retrieve her arrows, the girl could hear the mass of zombies from the street closing in on the opening to the alley, which meant she was almost out of time.<br/><br/>"C'mon boy," Gracie said urgently, nudging Toffee in the side with her heel. She sprinted for the closest door, and pushed down on the handle, hoping that she wouldn't find it locked.
