Jill - "Oh, come on." She raises her voice, "Hey, did somebody just die out there?!"

"Shut up, Jill. We could be next." Needles of fear prickled at Meg's neck.

Charlie dived back into the room as another shotgun blast went off. He had blood running down his khakis, but it was hard to see from where, and it wasn't slowing him down at all yet.
Charlie- "Those KPLQ bastards are goin' down. KTRO IS GONNA ROCK YOU, MISTER ESTEVEZ!"
If someone blasts at Charlie, yer both in the line of fire. Fortunately, you're finally free of shirty lockdown.
They heard Beany Man shout from the other room,Beany- "KPLQ IS GONNA WRECK YOUR SHIT, MISTER HALL!"

Jill sheds the ruined garment. She was down to a blouse now, which was fine since all this excitement and huddling together was making her sweat. Jill - "I don't think it's safe here anymore," She now spoke in a voice that was still tense, but quieter after Meg's urging. "Should we try to make a run for it? I don't want to leave you behind." As a coping strategy to calm the nerves, Jill imagined where they'd be when this was over. They could go get a drink and bite to eat at the usual place, and Meg would have a whole lot of new ideas for her fiction writing. Just as long as both of them were still breathing..."No, no. Peaceful thoughts."

Meg glanced at the ruined sweater glad that the sanctity of her Cure hoodie had been kept. This was all way above her job description..."This? Over TV stations? Mann I'll watch anything. Uh yeah... He might mind though."She gestured at Blondie."Let's just find a place to hide that's less shooty."

((SPECIAL note edit to end of my last post))Charlie glanced back at them, then back down the hall. He seemed to be straining to hear what was going on in the lobby while the ladies talked quietly nearby. Then he turned to them again. He kicked the phone cord out of the wall, then thought twice about it.
Charlie- "Listen, I can't keep you from calling the cops, but this will get way worse for everyone if you do. As is, no hostage situation, no one outside the one room involved. Anyway, good luck. I'm out."
He just walks briskly out the way he came in! There are still muffled shotgun blasts coming from upstairs. What could possibly require that many shellz? The women were alone.

Jill gave Meg a knowing look. Jill - "Time for our great escape?"

"Yeah.. Let's scoot. Ugh I feel like we should call the cops but I also think he's right. I'm all conflicty. Can I just go home and sleep then pretend it was some kind of horrid nightmare? That'd be nice."

So many shotgun blasts. Would it ever end? ((doowutchyalike but don't go very far with it so I can describe consequences of going into different areas and so on.))

Through the lobby was the back exit. That would be the quickest way to escape.
Jill - "Just let me know if you need extra time off after this, because I'll make it work. Until then, I say we both get away from here and contact the authorities as soon as possible." Jill knew that, should she survive, rest wouldn't be in her future any time soon. Problems caused by the idle Mr. Bunstein seemed far away and trifle at this point. Hopefully he was still alive to be fired formally after this mess was dealt with.
Her will hardened, Jill breaks eye contact with her ally and heads down the short hall to the front, peeking into the lobby...

"Cool! Are we talking paid or unpaid?" Meg followed Jill's lead, on the lookout for crazed gunmen.
