Finn is surprised but a bit distracted by seeing Jararaka reach the top of the stairs and all but immediately get cut down... But with a blink of her eyes Finn realizes her Lizard-person companion has not been killed but is merely in danger of it happening! "No" Finn calls out, effectively turning back time and distracts Jararaka's attacker. ((Reaction: Finn casts Silvery Barbs causing the attacker to have to re-roll that D20... Finn will have them use the crappier of the two rolls. Finn also gives herself advantage on her next D20...))
Still and all, the spell casting and life or death situation puts Finn herself in danger. The short sword makes it through Finn's defenses and Finn finds herself swaying, buckling, almost falling to the ground... Perhaps her wobbly stance is what caused the next stab to miss and the bolt to fly on by, one way or another she is lucky to still be on her feat.
IFJararaka still gets hit and still falls unconscious, Finn Bonus Action's Healing Word at Jararaka calling out "Get back on your feet you lousy lizard!" and healing them for 5 hp. Finn then uses her main action to attack the cultist due north of her...
Otherwise Finn still attacks the cultist with the rapier but Bonus Actions a scimitar attack as well...
Action - Rapier Attack: 7 to hit... assuming that misses Bonus Action (if available) Scimitar Attack: 21 to hit for 5 damage...
[Once again, there's a record-skip sound and time replays itself with a slightly different outcome...]
...
The nearest guard, half-undressed from last round, drops his crossbow and draws a shortsword. He stabs at Jararaka, dealing a modest blow.
Shortsword Attack on Jararaka: 19 Piercing damage: 5
Though badly wounded, Jararakajust snarls, and once again an eruption of lightning travels back down the blade to shock the offending guard.

Lightning Damage: 10
"Ah, dammit," he exclaims.
"Just kill it!" screams one of the other guards. The shortsword wielding guard stabs again. It seems but a scratch compared to the last blow.
Shortsword Attack on Jararaka: 22 Piercing damage: 3
The guard next to him fires off a panicked shot at the still standing lizardwoman, hoping to finish her off, but the bolt clatters harmlessly past and down the stairs.
Crossbow Attack on Jararaka: 10 (Miss)
...
[The Silvery Barbed crit on Jararakais still a hit but no longer a crit, dealing 5damage instead of 13. The subsequent crossbow attack had been at disadvantage (since she had already fallen and was prone. That was rerolled but still missed. Jararakais still up, at 6 remaining hp.]

"This way."The young blonde half-elf excitedly calls out to Jirel, then hurrying after Jararaka, coming up behind the massive lizardfolk, peeking to her left and calling upon her draconic powers to create an thunderous explosion by the three closest cultists.
Jirel grumbles. She wouldn't have chased a dead woman had she known, but it was what it was. With a huff she'd lumber forward instead of backtracking and try the ladder post big bang. Gripping it, she pulls herself up to the top, and takes a look around to see what's left prior to acting.

Finn's attack and Tylaerys' spell kill the guard nearest the ladder down. The two guards on floor both take massive damage from the spell, with the one sparring with Jararakabarely holding himself together as blood runs from his ears and nose.
Then, like a summoned saint, Jirel pops up from the ladder. [Jirel'sbase movement is exhausted but if she wants to try a ranged attack or dash into melee range with some of the remaining enemies, she can do so.]
[Once we see if Jirelhas anything left to say this round, the enemies will respond.]

With a grumbling snarl, Jirel narrows her eyes to peer through the room in search of a target(s). Any target(s) at this point. Swiftly drawing her handaxe(s), she hurls it recklessly like an axe throwing lumberjack.
Action Attack: 26 Damage: 13 BA (if available Attack): 13 Damage: 6
Jirel'sfirst axe catches the guard squaring off with Jararakain the back. He reaches back feebly before falling to his knees.
Jararakasurges forward over his body, rearing up to her full height before slashing out at the other guard in front of her. Even with the guard's missing armor, she isn't able to land her strike. The damage she has taken may be taking its toll.
Scimitar Attack: 9 (Miss)
She raises her shield and mutters a rasping spell... then changes her mind about the target half-way through. Finn, you feel some of your wounds knit back together as you regain 5hp.
The guard in front of Jararaka attempts two stabs with his shortsword, but cannot get past her shield.
Shortsword Attack on Jararaka: 15 (Miss)
Shortsword Attack on Jararaka: 9 (Miss)
The other guard drops their crossbow and leaps off the table, moving between the other guard and Finn. "Back to back! We've still got this!" he cries, earnestly. He turns his own blade on Finn.
Shortsword Attack on Finn: 21 Piercing Damage: 6
Shortsword Attack on Finn: 8 (Miss)

Reinvigorated, to an extent... And only for a moment... Finn feels herself enlivened just before she feels herself about to be stabbed once more. "Not my best day," she mutters to herself and in doing so casts shield to block the sword and save herself the gains she was just given! Sidestepping her way over and back atop the table such as to not break melee with her foe but also to get into range of Jararaka's who seems already wounded and about to fall. Finn hopes.
Rapier Attack: 15 to hit for 9 piercing damage Bonus Action Scimitar Attack: 10 to hit for 3 slashing damage
((Finn had Hex on someone at some point... Forget who it was last moved to. But I also just now am remembering I should have been making Con checks each hit to see if I still had concentration on it. So I am just going to assume Finn dropped concentration at some point...))
Tylaerys' bolt and Finn's rapier and scimitar (both hit) are all she wrote for the guard adjacent to Jararaka.
"Shite..." mutters the last as he realizes his flank is exposed.

Jirel strides forward to their flank. She stands to her full height as she pulls her handaxes free from a body, and the other from wood. She brandishes them. “Tell me. Where’s the Little One?” She holds a blade up to their groin. “Where did yous take her?” Her honey hues look at him intensely as her other blade lines up with his throat.
(Intimidation if needed: 0) (Whether she gets an answer or is refused, she’d still cut them down.) Action Attack: 25 Damage: 8 BA: 16 Damage: 3
The guard refuses to back down, and Jirel'sblades batter but do not subdue him.
Jararakacharges into the fray, heaving and bleading from a dozen wounds, and slashes with her scimitar, but the man steps out of the way in the nick of time.
Attack: 10 (miss)
Seeing the bleeding Finn as the weakest link in the chain closing around him, he stabs twice at her with his shortsword, but evading so many attacks leaves his own strikes clumsy and off-pace.
Attack: 12 (Miss)
Attack: 14 (miss)
He then turns and tries to flee for the stairs. Jararakatakes an opportunity to attack him as he goes...
Attack: 15 Slashing Damage: 7
... And cuts him deep along the flank. The guard is badly wounded now, even as he moves to run upstairs.

On their turn Finn looks to Jararaka and frowns worriedly. "Not feeling so good, huh?" She asks with some concern. "Well suck it up, we have someone missing!" Even as she says it she casts Healing Word at 2nd level to return 10 hit points to them!
(I'm kind of expecting the last guard was felled by Jirel and Finn by now...?)
That said, Finn is ready to follow anyone's lead...
The last guard stumbles and spills to the floor between the kitchen tables. Finn and Jirelstand over the body. Tylaerys sees all this from the stairs while Jararakastands nearby, reptilian body heaving with deep breaths as she lets the healing spell of Finn wash over her.
The flophouse is now deathly quiet.

"Well fought everyone..." Tylaerys says, coming up the final steps of the stairs and gracefully passing by her team mates to give them all a grateful pat. "...any idea where Yeshil is at?" She then turns and quietly asks Finn. She then listens up the stairs for any sounds.
"Yeshil?" Finn asks and pauses a moment. It had been chaos and hectic and her focus had been on those trying to kill her but... "I... I think I saw her head up? I can't be sure but... yeah, up..."
That said, Finn starts heading in that direction without a further thought.
Tylaerys, the entire building seems quiet... though it sounds like you can hear voices below, outside the front door. Someone is questioning the Flaming Fist, or vice versa.
Finn heads up the stairs. She finds the upstairs area much as she remembers it from her last visit here. There is a foul smelling bathroom with a tub full of corpses and waste shoots that drain out the back side of the building. There is a large common room with tables and chairs. Where she had previously seen cultists hammering away at a brick wall, there is now a wide opening gaping into the darkness of the upper floors of the building nextdoor. There is no sign of any cultists or Yeshil here.
On the second floor, Jararakagrowls and moves a shoulder gingerly. "I'll search the rest of this floor,"she grumbles and moves off down the hallway.

"Wait, I'm coming too..." The young blonde half-elf says quickly and quitely to Finn, then going a few steps down the stairs to create a wall of fire down the corridor that hopefully discourages the Flaming Fists to proceed should they somehow force their way through the door that Jirel jammed. Tylaerys then hurries after the roguish changeling, motioning for the blonde giantess to follow too, keeping her silvery eyes open for threats as the search for the lost girl continues.
