Apartment Roof - to - Merry's Location (Hallway with Viper)[/i]

[hr]

Her arrival on the roof seemed timely enough, but right below a hail of gunfire erupted. Lilliah spun around as she watched the scene from her position, seeing the tear gas grenade and the bullets fly in like hail. Military grade stuff. Grenade launcher, machine gun suppressing fire, and then all of a sudden the flash of a shot from her ally and then smoke emanating from below as the hail of bullets stopped. Was the enemy retreating farther in? Crap. But her ally had seemingly still driven them back somewhat, thought it reeked of suspiciousness, and instead of hopping down that sketchy fire escape the staff-wielder decided that it would be wiser to go in ASAP to check on her teammate. It was better safe than sorry in this case, though the temptation to sneak in from up top to find a good spot from the apartment to look from was outweighed by the feeling she needed to check in on things more directly. 

Swinging down into the hole in the building below her and using her momentum to break into a full sprint into the hallway, it only took Lilliah glimpsing a second figure grabbing Valkyrie's gun from behind that the simian-like esper didn't skip a beat. She sent herself flying at the assailant's exposed back, and cast a particular melody for once she made contact. Top speed, and a swift strike with a touch-based spell into the target's mid-back would count as the 'touch' needed, right? Though if her ally's moves had any success, she'd be hitting Viper from behind as Valkyrie sent them flying Wukong's way anywho. Regardless, Wukong's aim was to strike Viper no matter how things were, hoping that her melody would be able to restrain the foe for a moment at least if not more so. 

Enough for her to follow up with more strikes from her staff at the very least, she hoped. 

Yet Wukong had no idea of her ally's attempted actions, simply reacting to the situation with immediate action on her own part to try to assist a teammate. No thought of being caught in the crossfire, no thought of if her ally could free herself or would start firing in the enemy/Wukong's own direction, etc. Even so, at the back of her mind the younger woman wondered just how a bunch of thugs could get such higher-grade equipment? And how in the world was there some sneaky assassin skulking around for them? Sure in this city there were always surprises, but once this mission was completed she had a number of questions that hopefully would be able to be answered. Maybe. 

For now, it was just the job and trying to help an ally not outright die that mattered. Also herself not dying would be great as well.
