Search and Retrieval
Nicholas sat at a table in a small coffee shop and drank a cup of coffee. It was around two pm and the time of day most nine to fivers needed that cup of coffee to get through the rest of the work day. The place was pretty busy and all the small tables held two or three people, except for the one Nicholas sat at. He put of "don't even think about sitting here" vibes.

Crosshairs was out of sight but nearby and knowing her, probably had him in the crosshairs. He wouldn't put it past her to put a bullet or two in him just for fun.

They were doing search and retrieval.

Kane wanted a few mutants to do a test run on the machine. Once they knew it worked, they would proceed to the next phase and grab the bigger targets.

"See them yet?" he asked over the comms.

If she'd had telepathy, Crosshairs would resent that thought.

She'd gotten bored of sighting in Nicholas and making whispers "bang, bang." noises an hour ago.
Now she was using her IR painting gear to make little quickly fading smiley-faces on the sides of people's heads.

"No, not ye...belay that, there they are. Regular as rain, headed for the coffee shop. They'll be on you in thirty seconds. Get ready for tag, grab and jump."

	"Roger that," Nicholas said as he stood up and dropped his cup in a nearby trashcan. "Just don't miss." He knew she wouldn't, but saying it would rile her up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She grinned. "You been calibrating my baby's sights off a milimeter or two again, or do you just want a haircut?" she calls, zooming in on the targets, getting a feel for the wind, and following them slowly so she'll have them when they're just a couple feet from Nicholas.

	"I know better than to touch your weapons," Nicholas muttered. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Pft, you better, roid-boy. I mean, feeling me up in our last combat session, that was... well, that was kind of ok, but boy, do you need to get out and meet more women. Your technique sucks. But no one, no one touches my babies."
She replies calmly, lining up shot one, making sure she has a feel for a natural recovery and shot two.

"Ok, and three... two... one..."

The dart rifle made a soft *pop...*pop* as she fired, dropping both targets before they could react. "Tagged, bag 'em big boy and call in the jump."

	"You imagined it," he grumbled as he watched the two mutants go down. He picked them up, putting one over each shoulder and glared at the people around them. "Time for pick up," he said as he exited the coffee shop. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sweetie, if it was my imagination, you woulda been Rambo and Lara Croft in the back room of a gun show. I think we just need to find you a woman... or a guy, or a sheep... you know, I know you have some navy man in you. Who am I to judge your lifestyle choices?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nicholas didn't justify that with an answer or a comment. He just walked along carrying the two inert bodies over his shoulders. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Donovan jumps in at the nearest hidden point, reaching for one of the mutants to absorb enough life force to make the jump out with four people, then jumping out. Crosshairs can extract herself. (Reply to this)(Parent)
