[color=ff991c][b]"..."[/b][/color] So focused Valkyrie was at trying to take Viper's life, she only relaxed after the other esper flew out of sight. Yes, which meant Merry was [i]still[/i] firing when Viper turned into mist even though it had no effect. It was a wise move on the well-endowed esper's part as twas' only a matter of time before Merry got the idea to fire a lightning bolt melody instead, which wouldn't pass so harmlessly through Viper's gaseous form. [color=ff991c][b]"Haa..."[/b][/color] The brunette inhaled sharply, taking in much-needed oxygen after holding her breaths to steady her aim, perhaps that's something she should work on, that something being the ability to continue breathing calmly when aiming so she could neutralize tangos more effectively of course.

Now that the immediate threat was dealt with, the sniper esper could spare the attention to scan her vicinity, see if there was anymore funny business. With the knife wound on her chest, she couldn't move as swiftly, but fortunately it wasn't necessary at the moment. The commissioner's office and this floor as a whole seemed clear and judging from the radio chatter of the squad, they had gotten things under control at the lower floors and basement as well. So far, the prospects looked good, operation... success? However, there's a term called 'premature celebration' for a reason after all. She wouldn't let her guard down until they were safely back at HQ.

After making her report, Merry's orange eyes noticed Wukong's particular attention at the office's safe. Of course, having no intention to tolerate Viper's existence, let alone listening to her, led to the sniper being completely unaware that whatever was inside the safe had a connection to the snake bitc and even if she had, would she even care? As such, her mind chalked it up as something that belonged to the police department, breaking it open would make them just the same as these gangsters, buuuuuut... she wouldn't particularly care should Liliah decide to bust it open. 

[color=ff991c][b]"Wukong, I'm going downstairs to join the others."[/b][/color] She informed her fellow esper, about to take her steps toward the exit when she paused for a moment, [color=ff991c][b]"And oh, uh... great job out there, thank you."[/b][/color] She sincerely meant that, but even that was arguably an understatement as Wukong had saved her life twice in quick succession. With a final smile, the brunette stepped out of the office, into the hallway, and toward the stairs. 

Who knew who or what she'd encounter on the way, perhaps an incapacitated Sofron? Perhaps the late Beuford's friend, the machine gunner? Gee, she sure hoped none of them would do anything stupid now that Gemini had cut off the head of the snake.
