You were happy that things were going to go well. Sure it was kinda interesting going to Hawaii to film an episode.
SP:
D100 => 67+5=72
You were not doing badly during the whole thing your ability to be a badass was something that filled you with a lot of confidence, and made the action scenes far more intense, your ability to screw with the main characters was fine, and fun.
It was a nice change of pace to just show up, do you're scenes for a paycheck, and bring said paycheck to the bank.
You were only there for two weeks of filming and everyone liked you well enough, despite your reputation.
Being a professional has its perks.
Reward: +20,000 Dollars. +1 to Acting skill.
------------------------------------------------------
So, getting home to LA was going to be quick and easy. That itself wasn't the worst thing, but darn it, it was the wait for a taxi, because you didn't trust airport security to keep your car safe. Having enough cash on hand was going to be a good thing, so you could pay and get out.
But it was never the best thing.
And something told you that luck was always going to show you reality.
Or something else entirely.
D100 => 3
The pistol at your back was something that you didn't feel coming, nor did you expect it as you began looking for a taxi. "Turn around." The voice said and you did slowly, trying to do everything you could to make things less dangerous for you.
The young man was wearing a scarf over much of his face, and it was showering with sweat, but the heavy trenchcoat was a nice touch. Like some old Noir character.
His hands were gloved… his face was almost all covered except for his bright blue eyes, and he said. "Money now."
You had been held up before, but right now, you were in danger, and trying to take the gun away would just lead to someone else getting hurt.
"I'm going to reach into my pocket for my wallet." You said in a hushed tone. "No need for-" Your hand twitched, and you saw the hammer go back.
His hands were shaking, but you just said. "Listen, maybe we can-"
"Now!" He demanded.
"Okay." You pulled out your wallet, then you saw him look around, and a woman screamed in terror, the gun being noticed. "Someone get the police!"
He turned. "Shut up!" He aimed, and you could see his finger pull on the trigger.
A Moment in Time:
D100 => 33+30=63
You just moved on your own. Your body was in the way. No one was going to get hurt.
And everything in your chest burned as the gun fired. You grimaced in the most horrifying excruciating pain in your life, but you gathered all your strength.
Knock out:
D100 + 30 => 88
If there was one thing that boxing taught you, was that sometimes, even when going down, to pain, to fear, even to just exhaustion…
You could pull off one more trick.
And you did, your fist smashing into the young man who had just shot you. He had not prepared to be punched. You hit him right where you wanted to, somewhere you had practiced for years.
Crumpling to the floor of unconsciousness.
And you faded away, falling to the ground, unable to focus on anything but the pain.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wound Roll:
D100 - 30 => 58
You awoke in a hospital… And everyone was waiting.
"Bruce!" Carrie jumped from your side into a hug. You could see everyone was there. George, Mom, Dad, along with Carrie and her mother. Though you imagined that everyone else could have been there if there was any room.
"What happened?" You asked.
"You got shot." You turned to see your father sitting away as if he couldn't come to embrace you or come closer, his hand over his chest. "Bullet went through you and missed everything. Missed everything important."
You took a moment to sigh. "Everyone okay?"
"Besides scaring the hell our us?" Debbie replied. "Yeah."
"So what's going to happen?" You asked.
"They are keeping you under observation for another two days, then you'll be good to go." Your father stated as he walked over to you. He placed a hand on your shoulder. "Take it easy Bruce. You got lucky."
