Bother.
Chamber a round into the rifle and ride after the bloody beast like the grim reaper: fast and inescapable. Try to close up for a shot.

You chase after Martian, but the horse seems skittish about chasing a giant lizard and refuses to go at anything but a nervous, slow gallop.
"More painkillers? yes, I think so."
Sedate Caroline. Possibly with a syringe to the neck.
Then set the bones an' shit.

You Force a chloroform coated rag into Caroline's face and hold it there till she stops screaming. I know the feeling man.
You set her bones.
Shoot the thing from the side, aiming to scare it back towards the others. Try to hit its other eye if I think I can make the shot, or its legs otherwise. Hitting is not that important..

You raise your rifle and take aim, but the horse jerks and jumps over a rock hidden in the grass as you squeeze the trigger. The gun goes wild, swings low, goes off right next to the horse's head and detonates a patch of earth maybe twenty feet in front of you. The horse jerks hard, spooked, and bolts off in the other direction with you on it.
As I've always said: When a caregiver attempts to drug you, it's best to just relax and let this happen.

Do I have a horse? If not, get a horse. Chase after the beast. Shoot the lizard, aim for the legs.

You spur the horse into movement and hang on tight as it charges after the beast. You pass Victor, and come abreast with Martin just in time for him to assassinate the floor. Your horse rears and jerks hard to the side, throwing you straight out of the saddle. You cover your head and land hard on the grass. It knocks the wind straight out of you and it's gonna leave a bruise but you're otherwise uninjured.
