[If you're not going to be any help, Alec, then he has no need for your snarky comments!
Since this is an opportunity that shouldn't go wasted, Rufus closes the space between himself and the drake by a few paces. He lifts his weapon up, aiming the barrel in the general direction of the drake and fires off a shot.
The wide arc of buckshot misses, mostly, some of it scraping past the talons of the monster. The noise certainly is loud enough to give it a startle, which seems to be the point, if Rufus' satisfied look is of any indication -- the drake turns mid-air and flies off in a direction, further down past the fallen building into an area where there seems to be several rows of them, should they peer down that way.]
There's a whole nest, isn't there? [Tilting his gun back to rest against his shoulder, Rufus casts a look at Alec.] Let's follow. It'll save time to get this done all at once.
