At the sound of the gunshot both Urdin and the bison man turned in the middle of their fight. Urdin heard Zaffre shout but before he could react a second shot rang out. Urdin felt something slam into his chest, knocking him off his feet and into the air. He landed on his back, looking down. His armor saved him. It was dented in and he could feel it pushing against his chest, but the round didn't manage to penetrate. The fact it did that much damage to his armor meant the sniper was using large caliber high velocity rounds. Urdin tucked his arms to his chest and rolled. A lesson from his father echoed in his mind.

"Son let me tell you something that could save your life. Snipers, are the worst kind of soldier in the world. They stay off the battlemap and shoot at you from a distance. They don't get their hands dirty. If one starts shooting, move! Don't stay still and don't move consistantly. If you're on the ground don't bother trying to stand unless you're in cover. Just roll. If you stop moving your dead. Also, pray to god you have body armor. The whole snipers always getting headshots is bullshit. If that's all you give them they'll shoot your head, but they'll aim for your chest. Center of mass. Remember that son."

Urdin rolled, unable to breathe but he kept rolling. Once he was behind the wall of the fueling pump he stopped. He caught his breath.

''How the hell was he supposed to kill a sniper? ''Urdin looked to the side, he could see the airship, and the bison man had began to run up the stairs back into the airship. Urdin was stuck, he needed to get to the airship to stop the Faunus boarding, but how could he get over there without getting shot!?
