Taika wasted no time getting into position when the escort truck was taken out. The humans were confused, and unable to get in contact with the facility, which was right where she wanted them to be, the two dragons had the upper hand. She used that confusion to come up near the men in the escort vehicle. Standing as still as she could, she simply observed them, listening in to their conversation quietly. They were completely unaware of her presence. Because of that, she came to the conclusion that they didn’t have anything to detect dragons in their person. It seemed kind of odd. She hadn’t known any guard to not have something, with how paranoid everyone was. Nonetheless, she decided to take this opportunity and finally use it to her advantage. She held up her hand, keeping an eye on the two men and the man in the main supply truck.<br/><br/>She placed all of her concentration into freezing the two men. First, the ice began to crawl up their legs. The two men started to panic. They looked at each other, and then tried to pull their legs away, their attempts futile, murmuring things over and over to one another.  By the time they caught on to what was happening it was already too late. The ice moved quickly up to their thigh, then their torsos; the ice reached their neck and covered over their head before they had a chance to scream. Next, the main truck was to be taken out. She hoped that Hayden was in position by now, otherwise things were about to get complicated.<br/><br/>Freezing the two had been a risk, one that Taika had been willing to take, and was not without consequence, she had been aware of that. The passenger that was still in the main truck had seen everything that had happened through his mirror. The look on his face when their eyes met through said mirror said it all, and now she had to pick up the pace before any more attention was drawn to to what was going on. Taika clenched her jaw when she saw him reach for something and open the passenger side door. She really had not counted on there being another person there. This is what she gets for not being as calculating as a dragon of her species could be. Ice dragons were known to be cold, and especially calculating; she only had the cold part down. But that was something she couldn’t dwell on at this time.<br/><br/>When the man came into view, she noticed that he had a pistol. There was no doubt he was going to use it to get rid of her. Pistols these days, especially those used by certain organizations, were equipped with bullets that would take out a dragon in the blink of an eye, often leaving no trace behind. She has never been shot by one, and did not intent to find out what happens if she did. She acted quickly. Moving as fast as she could, she sent out a frozen shock to the man. She heard the sound of the gun going off no sooner had she lifted her arm, and cursed that the ice had not froze the gun quick enough. She somehow managed to elude the bullet. Considering herself very lucky, and wondering if there was some higher power (not that she was religious) looking out for her this time, she watched the man face the same fate as his comrades.<br/><br/>Once the man was dead, she looked around for Hayden, “Hayden? I hope you’ve grabbed what we need by now.” If it came to it, at least they could take the truck.
