> SHOUT AT THE ASSAILANT

You open your mouth to yell, but the dryness of your throat causes you to cough hoarsely. You have a brief coughing fit. Finally, you croak out the words "Who's out there? Who's shooting?" but it's hardly loud enough to be heard over the howling wind and rain.

> ACTIVATE SASS MODULE

You know for a fact you don't have a sass module. You do have a "Haul Ass" module (which sorta rhymes) -- it's called using your legs.

> ENTER HALLWAY

You're already working on that. Another pop resonates distantly and another hole is torn into the wall. You crawl to the door, hastily fumble with the chain latch, and tumble out before a hole is torn into your body instead.

You slam the door behind you. The howling wind flows through the crack under the door. It's dark again.
