I got a tortured mind and my blade is sharp. A bad combination in the dark
The objective was breathtakingly simple: Take out a warehouse full of black market weapons and tech that the bad guys had been using as a cache, but do it to a) leave a message and b) not be traced back to the good guys. Beautiful, direct. It was also much easier on paper than it looked on a rooftop adjacent to said warehouse.

"You know, I'm spotting some actual security on this place, instead of the usual. Cameras, floodlights, hell, even the armed guards look alert. Smart grunts, that's new."

	Hm, guns and blades. Frances gives a click back on the comms to confirm she saw the count, then sweeps again. If she drops too many too fast, they'll be onto the two of them. Instead she checks the vehicles, gives a few a flat tire in case there's a retreat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kelly continues to move point to point, trusting the sniper to deal with the watchers from above while she hits sniper points. She sets two more explosives, syncing them with the first, and each time, flashes a quick signal of the time remaining. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well they will certainly be leveling the warehouse, anything within that much plas will be slagged nicely. Shit, motion from deeper inside. "Next corner, eight," she warns quietly and shifts to get ready. That many need to be dropped, fast. She waits just long enough for them to all be away from the corner before she starts picking them off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"On it." She acknowledges, heading right for them.

Eight is too many to for anyone to pick off without the alarm going up - so she heads right at them. There's an alarm and guns out anyway - but thanks to her support, not near as many as it had been. She still takes a couple of shots but keeps coming at them, throwing a knife at one, finishing the second, one of the ones who tags her, with an action-movie worthy spin kick. By the time she's done, her sniper has the other six.

"Nice... shooting." she grunts back, catching her breath.

That was fast, she was efficient in close-combat and brutal until the opponent dropped. Do not get onto this lady's bad side. "Shit Xena, those were some good moves. Just keep going; the clock's ticking." Frances reloaded and scanned ahead, concerned; sniper or not, get was as useful as a tit on a toad once her partner got inside. "Where will you find your talkers?"

Catching her breath takes a couple moments while the shot in the lung heals, but she pushes on anyway, a lot more bloodied, but moving.

"Upstairs, conference room. I can fight through the guards downstairs if I need to, but if you can find me something I can get up to a second story window with, we won't cut it as close. Dumpster, crates, anything not heavily guarded. What are you seeing?" she manages, on the move, amidst a few coughs and pauses.

"You've got it." She shifted away from the path and scanning around the complex. Nothing really easy per se, but clearly she was of the caliber that 'tricky' wasn't bad.

"There's a transport truck parked near the side, fifteen meters to your left. If you get on it, probably from a crate or two nearby, it looks like an office window is right above. Shitty ledge though, you'll have to hoist. I can open the window for you."

	"Do it as soon as I hit the truck. Too soon will have guards on me." she agrees. Kelly goes into parkour mode, sprinting the distance, hitting the crates in stride, bouncing from one to the next, and a backflip from the top onto the truck. A short sprint later, she's heading for the window and getting ready to jump. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She shifts and waits for the right moment, training on the woman to time this right. Running, crates, truck and coiled for high jump. Frances hits the window with three bullets to weaken and shatter. With the window compromised, she sees a surprised suit reaching for under his jacket. She puts one in his shoulder before the window's occupied with the jumper. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Beautiful." Kelly calls over coms as she makes her leap. "Shot was pretty good too."
Mid-jump, she draws both pistols, rolling with the landing and taking out the people going for guns, making sure a couple of the shots are debilitating, but non-lethal.

She shuts off her com temporarily to make sure nothing said gets back to some authority or other. By the time she's back at the window, flashing a thumbs up, with someone over one shoulder, its getting dangerously close to the end of countdown.

"Hey, you don't have the view I do," Frances bounces back. The distance makes the gun fire hard to hear but the tell tale click of the comms being shut off comes in crystal clear. "Not welcome anymore, I get it." She swept for any stragglers while the ninja did her thing.

"Book it fast," Frances warned and stayed in place to watch her trail and keep anyone from following.

At the comment about the view, Kelly grins, and pulls her shirt up over her chest as she continues bolting away from the place with a presumably unconscious body over her shoulder.

Soon as she hits the straightaway, she stops worrying about taking fire, just getting as much speed and momentum going as she can. There's a little gunfire, but its not long before the timers go off, and the place goes up.

Frances snickers at getting flashed before the place goes up in a big way. That was the cue to get the hell away from the fireball. Looping the rifle over her shoulder and grabbing the bag, she simply goes for the fire escape and slides down while the secondary explosions pop and boom.

"Looks you caught a good one, don't have to throw him back. Need a ride, my car can fit a guy in the trunk."

Kelly nods when she catches up, a bit singed, still bearing signs of a few bullet holes, but she seems to be moving fine by now. "I'll do you one better. I'm not sure who you work for, but you have the look of something official. I got most of what I needed, but didn't have time for a full interrogation. Just told him and his buddy whoever spilled first got a lift out of the big badda-boom. So... you want a prisoner? You can take credit for getting your org the intel, you just have to share it with me on the side, and I don't have to risk revealing one of my boss' safehouses to some kind of fed. Hot, sexy, gun toting fed, but still."

She makes a face about being caught as official, reminds herself tweak gear to not look so shined-boots and spiffy-clean. "No no, it would be a professional discourtesy to swoop on your safehouse, I get that." Picking up the guy's head, she reasons the schmuck wouldn't remember the trade off anyway. Which means Frances doesn't have to mention anyone else in the report. "And clean up'll be easy too. Fine and dandy, but how am I going to get you the goods once he talks? Care to swap digits or shall I just start posting personal ads in Craigslist?" she asked and smirks crookedly.

	"I was figuring I'd give you my number, and you can call when you're ready to go celebrate our victory... and massive explosions. Always worth celebrating those. Besides, I believe I owe you some body shots." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She shrugs, liking this plan more and more. "And who can resist a body shot offer from you? Alright, I'll get Humpty Dumpty from you then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Hey, as long as you can't resist body shots from me, I'm all good with it."

She goes through her things til she can get out a small pen and mini-pad of paper, noting down her number. She pulls in very close, grinning all along, putting a hand into her new friend's back pocket, amidst a little groping, by way of leaving the folded paper with her number there.

"Call me and tell me where we're partying, chica."

	Frances grins back, not losing eye contact as her mystery partner gave her a good bye present. "He's not going to be very talkative if I accidentally drop him." "Cross my heart, you'll hear from me soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	goesbothways 2013-01-31 12:46 am UTC (link)
	Kelly nods. "Looking forward to it." she replies, talking while lingering in the distinct flirtatious invasion of personal space. Then she hands over her prisoner, officially, backing off, and going running and leaping off the sniping rooftop. (Reply to this)(Parent)
