If they didn't need Vash's help, than they didn't need his help. With his jaw set, he half-turned in place -- just in time to see the hunter who'd been helping him take a hard hit. He narrowed his eyes for a moment, and then whistled sharply through his teeth to get Zeke's attention.
Once he had it, he threw one set of bandages, hard, in the man's direction. They landed about two feet away; Zeke would have to grab them, but it was something, at least.
And then something stung him.
Surprised, Vash stumbled and looked down at his leg, blinking blearily. He felt strange. Again. Sick and wobbly.
It was a good thing he had another set of bandages. He already regretted giving away the first set.
Roland saw the leg before Peyton did, he’d hopped to his feet just before she did, though he didn’t bother summoning Sylvia, he wasn’t going to lie to himself and pretend he could fight something that big especially with his shield being so low at the moment. Instead he started sprinting for Peyton clearing the distance and hitting her with a light tackle before tumbling down a sand dune and away from the leg as it crashed down.
“You okay?” He asked Peyton when he scrambled back to his feet watching the giant titan above them, again still vigilant and ready to run like hell if something went sideways again.
15. You are filled with suddenly, quite intense resolve. Quote a player. You may save that player from taking any damage for their next turn.

Peyton grunted as Roland slammed into her and sent the both of them rolling, and she might have demanded to know why had the ground not shaken as a massive leg came down right where she'd been standing.
Up on her hands she stared, pale eyes a little side, before turning to the trainee. "Yeah, I'm good. Thanks."
Another shadow loomed. "********! Go go go!" She pushed at him to get him moving, then scrambled up herself.
With a few good stabs into the sand, all the critters broke apart and dissolved into dust. Feeling way too hot and his hands too sore, he loomed to see whwre he should be at.
"I hate this." Lysander said. He felt better but his ankle still made moving with any speed very difficult indeed, everything hurt and he was shaken to the core by all of it. It had been one thing to think that he was in what was essentially Westworld, it was another to think that he was in Westworld run amok. Suddenly he was no longer a client but a potential victim and his life became a lot more imminently endangered.
"Will we ever get home?" he asked a little grimly as he ran.

11. You manage to avoid most of the chaos. It's just sand everywhere. A lot gets in your eyes if they are unprotected. (No damage).
Just when one set of bugs left, another group sprang up from the ground, and he stumbled back hoping that distance would be a deterrent to keep them put, but that only lasted as much as they could bite him before they sank back into the sand.
"Spiteful ********." He grumbled, before the entire ground shook and the biggest bug he had ever seen rose up bigger than a skyscraper and curled down to them.
Roland glanced over at Peyton as she spoke, nodding, then turned back to the beast watching as another leg rose up and prepared to stamp down, “No not that way WRONG WAY WRONG WAY!.” He ran past Peyton this time grabbing her arm as he sprinted moving towards the tail of the creature and towards the moving leg, instead of landing on them they passed under it and where knocked up and into the air slightly sideways. For now it seemed they were safe.
Or at least as safe as one could be standing under the giant beast watching its many legs shift and slam into the sand sending tremors through the sand below them.
“Where are the portals? Melvin mentioned portals? Why don’t we have any yet!?”

Merric made a noise of assent at Lysander's comment. "I'd rather not spend the rest of my time here," he said, sounding annoyed, because there were so many other places he could have been at this very moment that did not involve being crushed by giant centipede...things.
"I would imagine that they can't kill us here, that would be extremely bad judgement."
Even as he said this, one of the centipede's legs came crashing down beside him, sand sweeping over Merric, who let out an instinctive shout of surprise and immediately found his mouth full of sand. He made a choking noise and staggered away, coughing, swiping irritably at his face.
"Or maybe they are after all," he said, a touch hoarsely.

8. The slow-moving body descends and begins to crush you. You need you and other players, to do 20 damage to it to make it move. You take -2 auto damage every turn you are not free (just you).
The whistle was enough to drag Zeke's attention back the way he'd just come form, and he frowned at the kid he'd just helped, questioning, before a medikit landed with a soft thump in the sand beside him. He couldn't have snatched it up any quicker, and as he did so, struggling back to his feet, he'd offer a tip of his head in a nod of gratitude.
Getting to safety should have been his top priority, and it was, but wanted to make sure Ever and Cee made it as well.
{Ezekiel, you can't just stand there.}
Cursing soundly under his breath he picked a direction at random. Tryign to make sense of what was going on was impossible. He just needed to start moving.
The looming shadow wasn't immediately registered as a threat--the titan was writhing above them--but next thing he knew he was being crushed, part that giant body rolling over him.

Cee being handed the bandages had her flashing Lucky a dazzling smile amidst the acid and grime and awful circumstance. She noticed that the green s**t on her hands spread to him as she touched his chest and she felt, very suddenly, bad for it.
"s**t.. sorry.." The woman smeared her hands on her short shorts in an effort to clean them. "Lemme use these real quick.." The bandages were waved briefly, "And maybe we should stick together."
It wasn't exactly a hardship on her to have him around.
12. A massive leg comes crashing down towards you, perfectly pinning your coat. You need to get rid of it! (No damage - coat)
What was this things problem having with her coat. Just as she had been distracted by watching her former group take off another leg at reared up and crashed down just inches from her body...
And directly back onto her coat with a sister-sheering along the back of her tank top, tearing said tanks right strap and planting her to the earth from the back of her jacket.
"WHAT IS YOUR ********' DEAL!?!?" She roared as she struggled once again to get herself out from beneath the massive weight of the centipede's leg.
Her energy was not infinite and she was starting to find it harder and harder to struggle up through the sand and to try and make her way as far from this thing as possible. Grunt and groans followed with her as she bent her arms juuuuust enough to...
'SLICE'
The back of her jacket cut as her tonfa made contact and she scurried away on all fours before whirling back around. No time to be distracted again.
