The blast was deafening but the orc man's breastplate shone as the bullet neared it, and a clear<em>barrier</em>seemed to appear in the air before him. It actually twisted the shot aside somewhat, but not enough for the orc's sake. The bullet plunged into the orc's chest, the metal dented in and yet it was a small hole in the metal. Despite the power of the bullet the armor's back seemed intact, the bullet did not get out of the orc's body again, or at least not out of the armor.<br/><br/>Not that it mattered. The orc's leader's eyes rolled up as he fell to his knees and shuddered. The next instant, a broadhead arrow passed Petra's gunarm slicing it nastily on what could only be described as<em>way too close</em>to even be a miss, but not as harsh of a hit as it clearly could have been. Yet the arm was burnt around the cut, the wound aching with the flesh seared around the cut.<br/><br/>The arrowshot came before the orc leader collapsed on his face, but it did not stop it. The orc did not look like he was going to get up. That attack had been very vicious and bsaed on dents in the armor, the bullet had gone back and forth inside it several times, probably turning the orc inside to mush.<br/><br/>As Kairi rose to look up over the ogre's body, another arrow hit the ogre they had for cover, triggering a burst of flame in the ogre's flesh, rising up the smell of well cooked meat immediately. That kept her head down. The halfling woman trembled but raised her hand over the edge gesturing at the direction of the orcs, two silvery arrows forming at her fingertips and shooting forth as she peeked over the edge, hitting first archer in the chest, but the two silvery arrows from the spell failing to drop the orc.<br/><br/>The two orcs with falchions were charging in, reaching the Ogre in an instant, but unable to attack the group yet, on the wrong side of it.<br/><br/>It was then that the man moved up from behind the ogre to the closest orc at range, and sank his falchion into the orc's side. Despite the hard swing, it was certainly no skilled stab, and the orc looked more pissed off than seriously wounded.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">Petra took 9 damage from that arrow, and 5 of that was fire damage. The arrow was not on fire, so likely magical. <br/><br/>Currently, there's 2 orcs behind the ogre, with Kairi and the halfling Tinde taking cover still, and moving around the ogre's side to the closer orc, the Elrick fellow attacked but the orc only looks lightly injured.</div></div>
