Ruby still circled just above the tree line with Sapphire observing and waiting for another opening to strike. As she saw Larion distracting Nawar she thought this could be her chance but then she heard Alex shout about the unknown woman, and she knew he was right, especially as the molotovs started flying. She knew the prominent figure was in quite some danger and Ruby got hint too. She carried Sapphire to the woman and dropped her neatly on the ground, without making too much noise.

“Are you hurt, can you walk?” Sapphire asked in a low tone.

In the meantime, Sapphires crimson eagle rose up to the sky once more. Through the smoke she could more or less make out the silhouette of the other team members. Most noteworthy was Imgor who was amidst one of the fires. Sapphire took note of this and instructed Ruby to pick him up.

Without warning Imgor was grabbed by his shoulders and the next thing he knew he was above the fires and the treeline. Sapphire was aware of Alexanders optimal position and knew if there was someone else in a tree also ready to fire, dodging a shot would quite hard, especially with his leg wound from before.

Soon enough Ruby saw a fairly sturdy tree on the side of the road. A shot from this position would perfectly intersect at ninety degrees with that from Alexander. She dropped Imgor off on one of the thicker branches of the tree. The added height of the tree should hopefully allow Alex and Imgor to see each other and coordinate. Sapphire hoped they got the hint on what she had planned.
