Ulthrane 32 (Middleday) (continued): Audrea Daleos, Eri Snow, Fern the Siegemaster, Jinxi, Juan de Fulmando, Sly Delgarro, and Yagritte Ratreaper, in front of St. Bassard's School and Home for Disadvantaged Youth, reacted to hearing a call of "FIRE!" Sly said, "Erm.. Should we or should we not be worried about the possibility of a fire?" while Juan said to Yagritte, "That was quite a kiss! Oh, fire!" Juan ran toward where he heard the call as did Sly.
Fern knew where there was a unlided half-full barrel of rain water, which a couple of strong guys grabbed. Fern got a large cloth.
The group arrived at a seven-story tenement building to the north of St. Bassard's called Balsten Arms Building. Some of the group knew it was where Professor Chalk lived. There was a doorway with people rushing out, and a stairway to the side with people coming down. The entrance to the stairway was on the far side. There was smoke coming out of a window six stories up.
Juan said, "By Meleshar and Samorojia, give me speed!" and moved very slowly for a couple of seconds. While people were coming down the stairs, the group saw two men going up. Eri and Sly saw a man standing outside the door who had a short sword out and snarled, "Stay away!" Eri Snow said, "Pardon me! We want to help!" Sly Delgarro said, "I don't think this guy's here to help." Another man behind him approached Sly, and Sly drew his blade and said, "I'm only gonna tell you to move once, lad."
Audrea Daleos said, "Blusey Bruisey Woozy Hatchie Tatsie!" At the window with the smoke, the remaining glass was shattered by two people in combat. A man dressed similar to the others who were thwarting the rescue tried to stab a young woman.
Eri readied her lajatang, then lowered it slightly and said, "You're Sardaster's people!" Sly Delgarro said, "Sardaster's people?" then thrust his weapon, doing minor damage. Fern tried but failed to fast draw her rifle. Jinxi attacked with poppet Jack, hitting one opponent in the gut, doubling him over. Yagritte drew a shortsword, while Eri went into all-out defense, asking, "Why are we fighting? What's happening?" Meanwhile the girl on the sixth floor scrambled out the window and onto the stairs. Professor Chalk came running out of the sixth story doorway.
The two men that had been seen on the stairs were on the stairs' landing. They were armed and heading upstairs, jostling through panicked tenement dwellers. Juan yelled, "I'm going upstairs follow me!" Juan hit one of the two men, doing major damage to the crotch. Sly attacked, but missed; Jinxi attacked, and hit the opponent in the head. At this point, three of the opponents were down.
A fourth, looking tougher and meaner than the others, attacked Sly and critically missed; his shoulder went "Pop!"  Yagritte disarmed her opponent.  Jinxi's arm was somewhat hurt, then a crossbow bolt thudded to the ground near Audrea.  Fern saw there was a man with a crossbow on the 7th floor.  
Numerous windows on floors 5, 6, and 7 had smoke and flames coming from them.  Juan began running to the stairs.  Sly went to all out attack, hitting his opponent more than once.  Fern started to aim her rifle at the man with the crossbow, but because of the distance switched to aim at a closer opponent.  Jinxi hit an opponent, Audrea hit another opponent with lightning.  (Citadel's Shadow II adventure 2019 06 08)
