Bark on the airwaves. "Operative Seong, copy."

[color=999999]"I think the sniper ran off in the crowd. We had an, uh, incident. Benson and Jolene are down but we're maintaining pursuit west of the river. Fanning out in pairs and on high alert."[/color]

The grey-clad man with the rifle nodded, though no one could see.

[color=999999]"We have..."[/color] Distortion, as if of words spat out while their source was glancing at something away from her speaker.  [color=999999]"Reason to believe that the target is still alive."[/color][/i]

No shit, Shan,[i] thought Seong, eyes flicking to the grinning face on the stoplight at his left.

[color=999999]"Maintain pursuit downriver. Get drone assistance. She could easily have hijacked a vehicle by now."[/color] Seong opened his mouth. [color=999999]"Oh, and make sure you check the bridge again. Target was unarmed when we left her, I don't want that to change."[/color] More muttering. [colour=999999]"Fuckin' bitch shot some good warriors."[/colour]

"Copy that. Over."

[colour=999999]"Over."[/colour]

Seong raised his rifle a little higher and continued his way north as the faint whine of drone wings passed him by.

By the time he was within sight of the bodies, he could see a man and a dog tampering with them. Seong narrowed his eyes and stayed quiet, inching his way towards the newcomers.
