Desmo pulled out his gun and fired.

Hourman uses his last power nigh-invulnerable skin or super tough skin , the last one left and attacks the assasin.
(OOC two questions: race the train adds to hourman armor class right? Did I get a poor role for get tough multi attacks or is that per round. )

((Race the Train has three benefits that you chose from each turn, and AC improvement is one of them (the other two are move faster or get an extra action). When you say "multi attacks," do you mean the bonus attack because both parties are unarmed, or did you think you had the Multi-Attack power activated? If the former, yes, the second attack was a miss; almost all my d20 rolls that turn were 9 or less!))

Hour-Man and Captain Desmo (and Bart Regan, Zatara, and Spectre) Sunday, May 7 1940 Appleton City Greenwood Cemetery Catacombs 8:44 pm
Again the assassins seemed faster.
Hour-Man's nigh-invulnerable skin proved protection from fists (he would have been hit by 2 punches otherwise).
Bart was cut twice by swords ((9 dmg total!)).
Zatara was cut once ((3 dmg)), disrupting his spell.
The Spectre proved so scary that the lesser assassin facing him remained on the defensive. Genghis Akhim, seeing Captain Desmo go for his gun, outdrew him and produced an automatic pistol. He targeted Captain Desmo first, of course, hitting him twice. Captain Desmo went down (this time CD is unconscious, not stunned). He saved one shot for Hour-Man, but it glanced off Hour-Man without harming him.
Hour-Man redoubled his efforts against the two assassins that had been slowing him down. He laid into one of them with a left and a right that laid the man flat unconscious ((14 dmg total from two hits!)).
Bart clubbed one of his two opponents, but it was another light wound ((3 dmg this time)).
The Spectre cast a spell, opening a Dimensional Portal directly behind Genghis Akhim. The Spectre then raced up to Akhim, obviously intending to push him through, but found Akhim stronger than he'd reckoned with.
((CD is down again, but Hobbs isn't! Tim can take control of Hobbs at this point. Hobbs is a 1st-level fighter with 4 hp right now and presently unarmed.))

Hobbs, horrified to see CD down, jumps at the nearest assassin to knock him down.

((The closest assassin to Hobbs is the last assassin on Hour-Man.))

In that case, Hobbs will instead race over to Akhim to help push him through the gate if it is still open.

Hour-Man and Captain Desmo (and Bart Regan, Zatara, and Spectre) Sunday, May 7 1940 Appleton City Greenwood Cemetery Catacombs 8:44-45 pm
Hour-Man succeeded in landing only one more punch on the remaining ex-prisoner, but it was enough ((5 more dmg takes him down!)).
Hobbs threw himself into the Spectre's effort to push Akhim through the magic portal. Caught off-balance by being outnumbered, Akhim went through! The portal immediately closed.
"He is not far," the Spectre explained. "I have trapped him in one of the sarcophagi in the next chamber over. It will not take him long to figure out where he is and escape, but it may buy us time to finish off his underlings before we need to concentrate on him."
Without their leader visible, the remaining assassins were momentarily stunned into inaction, allowing the Heroes to finally take the initiative. Bart and Zatara were going to need some back-up, because they weren't hitting anybody. No one seemed to feel they were free to stop and bandage Captain Desmo, despite Hour-Man's barked order.

Hobbes decided to rush back to help bandage Desmo. If anyone got in the way, he would wallop them with his fists!

Hobbes found that neither he nor Captain Desmo had a first aid kit on them ((Hour-Man and Zatara both do)).

Then Hobbes in despair set about walloping the closest assassin to him.

Hourman drops his first aid kit on the floor and asks the spectre to bandage the captain. Hourman then moves to help Zatarra with battling a cultist.

Hour-Man and Captain Desmo (and Bart Regan, Zatara, and Spectre) Sunday, May 7 1940 Appleton City Greenwood Cemetery Catacombs 8:46 pm
Everything was happening at the same time now.
Hour-Man and Zatara both attacked the same assassin, with Hour-Man hitting ((for 5 dmg)), but Zatara missing with his Magic Missile again (something seemed to be off on his spell, as the missile kept flying at the wrong angle away from him). The assassin was injured, but not out; at least the punch sent him reeling so he could not effectively attack anyone. The other assassin that had been attacking Zatara switched to attacking Hour-Man, but Hour-Man blocked the knife with his nigh-invulnerable arm and took no damage.
The Spectre did not obey Hour-Man's suggestion to bandage Captain Desmo, but kept fighting alongside Hobbes. Though they had eliminated Akhim from the fight for now, there was still the matter of the other assassin who had been attacking the Spectre. Hobbes couldn't get his fists close with that flashing saber in the way. The Spectre tried to lure the assassin's attention to him, taunting him to keep him from attacking Hobbes back. "What's wrong, don't think you can stop me?" The Spectre asked mockingly. The assassin's saber cut through the Spectre's outstretched hands as if they were not there.
Bart was still outnumbered and suffering for it. Though he stabbed the assassin he had injured twice already with his switchblade, seriously injuring him, both of the assassins cut him again with their sabers, and Bart was now himself seriously injured and bleeding badly.
