Youngblood Klaus hid behind a barrel. Those damn Skaven where everywhere! He
had taken one of a group of five out before running out of there. Content he'd lost
them in this abandodned wine seller's house with the door locked, he took out his
pistol and started cleaning it. He heard a grasping noise at the door. He peeked out
to se a skaven, coming in, UNDER the locked door! He didn't know how it
was doing it but in an instant, it was upon him. Klaus tried for his dagger,
but he had no need. A shot rang behind Klaus, and the Skaven fell dead with a buckshot
in it's side.
"Trouble, Klaus?"
Klaus looked behind him. It was Captian Gunnerson, still holding his pistol out.
"Not anymore captian."
"In that case Klaus, would you mind leading me out of here. You know I'm blind...."
