<b>Gunship</b><br/><br/>Sapphire could see the gunship lift off. The building she was at had plenty of corners to hide behind, and good shadows to hide unwanted reflected light.<br/><br/><span style="color: red">WARNING, DEADLY, HIDE</span>. She had the vehicle cross-haired when the words began to shout in her mind again. Well, she was hidden. And she was confident she knew how deadly armaments that big could be. How thick its armor plating was.<span style="color: blue">"does that thing have my sisters?"</span>she hissed, but of course her inner voice didn't answer. She aimed at the farther ends of the aircraft.<br/><br/><span style="color: blue">"I can take it down"</span>but that wasn't her orders. She didn't have any yet. Instead she powered down the shot again, and shifted her aim. That antenna above it looked important. Sapphire just gently squeezed the trigger, the energy weapon barely recoiled. The antenna snapped off.<br/><br/>Sapphire retreated back to the fire escape stairs, and went down a flight, to the floor below. The door wasn't locked, or at least it didn't take more than a firmer twist to open it. She entered the building and crossed the floor to get a new angle on the gunship. Depending on what it was doing, maybe she would really have to take it down, despite her personal misgivings.<span style="color: blue">"damn it, where are they?"</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
