Under Seige in the Medibay
<snip>
Their ammo supply was really running dry, the door closed, sealing
them from the room, and the group inside the room.

The four survivors in the medi-bay were Elian, McJohn, Dante, and Victoria.
McJohn looked at the duffelbag full of ammo he had brought with him. There
were just four drum magazines left for his Tommy Gun, including the half
empty one he was currently using.
"How long d'you think that door'll keep em out?" he asked Dante.
"Dunno. I locked it off, so it depends on whether they've got any cutting
gear."
A cloud of sparks burst from part of the door and a laser torch beam
appeared in a widening hole.
"They've got it." Victoria said.
"Smeg!"
"How long 'till they burn through the door?" asked Elian.
"Five, six minutes." replied Dante.
"How much ammo do we have?" asked Victoria.
"Not enough," sighed Dante. "Not nearly enough."
Victoria looked around her. "Is there anything in here we could use for a
weapon?", she wondered aloud. McJohn's eyes fell on the nearby tanks of
quick-working anesthetic gas.
"Never mind that!" he shouted as he began digging through the duffel bag,
pulling out four gas masks. "Put these on! And help me set these tanks up
facing the door!"
After hurriedly donning the masks, they all helped McJohn roll sixteen of
the tanks towards the door, then Victoria set up a pair of large ventilator
fans behind the tanks. They aimed the nozzles towards the door and turned
them on at full blast. A half-minute later the door fell in and the clones
charged through.
McJohn, Elian and Dante opened fire and kept shooting until the gas took
after and the clones began to collapse from the gas's effect. Elian
cautiously got up from their makeshift barricade and looked out into the
corridor.
"Empty!" he shouted back. The others rushed forward, scooping up as many of
the fallen clones' weapons as they could wield.
"What now?" asked McJohn, even though he knew the anwser already.
"Leg it to the bridge!" Dante shouted as he began running down the corridor
to the express elevator.
