010 | Closed Action - Desperate Times Call for Desperate Measures

[alwaysatthebar]

[Waiting patiently outside Solomon's residence was one April, calmly sipping her tea and looking as though she was merely enjoying the sun, not scooping out the place. Of course, the minute Solomon leaves is the minute April starts counting under her breath. Ten minutes later, she's striding through the door and taking the elevator up to the penthouse.]

[Someone had a place to rob! To bad she's forgetting something Solomon had said once. Something about a roommate... Lock pick tools in hand, April's busy at the door. There was just one thing nagging at her, and it wasn't her forgetfulness over the roommate, but rather the lack of security. No wires, no keypad, just a deadbolt and a lock? Pins sliding into place, April slowly turned the doorknob with her left, holding her breath as she listened in at the door.]

[And then she squeezed herself inside.]

((ooc: open to Solomon and Marishka))

[Her laughter fang through the room as she leaped into the air to cling to the ceiling. It was easy for her to move that way, crawling along up there and vanishing into the shadows again. Of course, the gun meant nothing to her. It couldn't hurt her.]

Silly child~ Coming to me~

[Marishka dropped down directly in front of her very suddenly.]

Don't worry. I will play gentle.

[Marishka's laugh was a dead giveaway in position, and April didn't hold herself still for very long as she crept around the room, looking for any advantage, but not even furniture would protect her if Marishka could cling to the ceiling. It was better to look up, and be prepared.]

[Barely flinching as Marishka landed next to her, April tilted up her hand and squeezed the trigger of her gun, aiming straight for Marishka's heart. Her last word were drowned out by the sharp crack of the gun, and April immediately stepped back, holding her gun steady as she fired a second shot and then a third. One should never assume the first shot hit its mark, even if April did have exceptional aim, especially at such close quarters.]

[Each bullet hit and Marishka let her body jerk back, her body even falling back some. Black holes appeared on her pale skin and she seemed to hang in the air.

And then she was back in her feet with a smile on her face, the bullets falling out of her body as the wounds healed. She started to 'tsk' her right before she backhanded her hard to send her flying through the air, moving faster than the eye could follow to catch her in her arms.]

Bang-bang! So silly~

[April barely had a moment to realize the gun was useless against Marishka before she was backhanded, flying through the air only to get caught.]

[Grunting, biting her lip to keep herself from answering Marishka's taunts, April thrust the palm of her hand against Marishka's jaw even as her skin started to glow blue as she activated her contract. She just needed a few moments to gather up the moisture in the air. If bullets didn't work, maybe drowning her would.]

[Marishka laughed as she threw her across the room, shifting into a bat-like creature in the blink of an eye.]

Here, little girl~ I will play so nicely~
