Reed pounded a fist against her chest to clear the laughter.
Mercenaries! In the CCD. The notion was hilarious! Greatest empire on earth and they hired Jacques Danjou to do their dirty work. It'd be brilliant if it weren't so fucking funny.
"Well kids, let's split. Trano, have any easy way to get us down? Because I don't think I'm up for piggybacking all of you."
Trano's sass flattened her gaze. "We came up through that elevator shaft over there. Shouldn't be too hard to get back down."
"You mean back to the basement then up through the floor again? Fuck that."
Reed said and crossed to the ledge.
She wasn't dumb enough to outline herself on the edge of the building for anyone to see. So she took a knee and peered over carefully.
The Knights were unlikely to take kindly at Reed's sudden claim on leadership, but floating to safety with Trano's magic up her crotch didn't sound like her idea of a good time.
Sharp eyes flickered this way and that until she spotted the slender shape they needed.
She crouched for the first few steps and returned to them. "Fire escape straight to the tar mac, forty-five meters that way."
She rolled her eyes. A cloud of smoke suddenly wafted their way, and she coughed irritably.
"Let's go geniuses."
She was in no mood to take orders for the time being, and as the group made their way down the roof, she slipped a hand in one pocket long enough to power off a Wallet.
