Valiss smirked as the quarian took down the wanted man, now they just needed to keep him alive and turn the scumbag in for that nice bonus. The actual job wasn't done yet, there were still slavers all around them and one more to take in alive. She had her submachine gun at the ready, then she was hit by a surge of surprise as the lights went out inside the warehouse. Darkness, it wasn't something she liked seeing while in combat.

Then the asari heard something hit the floor, bounce once before it went off. A grenade? She was not hit by shrapnel but a blinding flash which caused her to let out an unhappy groan. She closed her eyes, only seeing the piercing light caused by the grenade. She then stumbled as the bastards started firing at her position, laying down suppressing fire. 

A good amount of shots hit her hard, knocking into her shields. In an almost panicked reaction she threw down a biotic shockwave in the direction from where the she heard the grenade land. She doubted whoever threw it had that amazing an arm, she would probably be able to catch them with her biotic talents. The wave rumbled as it connected, Valiss diving behind cover, her shields too low for any real attempt at retaliation.
