So far as Roland's concerned, he can help by running. But maybe it wouldn't help anyway, if the man even could - Roland saw for himself how fast that thing can move. Very few things would help at this point, including that vodka bottle, which sails smoothly over the creature's shoulder. "Your sword! Force it back!" He flings a hand toward the creature, trying to show which 'it' he means, as he moves away from the other tribute.

Circle around, give the creature two separate targets instead of one - and if the other tribute does force it back that empty bottle is lying in just the right place to trip it up. If that works, if they're very lucky, Roland will be able to get the gun back and end this as he ought to have a moment ago - would have, if he hadn't been stupid enough to keep holding it in the wrong hand. If he can get to that gun, they'll be alright.
