Snippet #2430475

"Let's keep this quick," he told Iso through his communicator. "We can do this in two minutes if we work fast."

Figures broke out from the back of the armoured truck, and he quickly aimed the cross-hairs of his magnified scope over them and held his breath. As Riley and Sunny climbed out of the truck to make themselves targets, he considered taking a shot but decided almost immediately against it. He didn't want to waste any time or ammunition.

"Spotted the target," he quickly said, scope zooming in on the other soldiers as they pushed Jacob towards several cars for cover. The window of his shot likely hitting anything was brief, but he was going to exploit it anyway. Adjusting for range and movement speed, he pulled back on the trigger, sending a suppressed, yet deadly round straight for a center of body mass. He had had to aim quickly, and there was no guarantee of even hitting anything, but hopefully even if he didn't the sudden impact of a sniper round by them would distract them just enough for Iso to get the VIP.

The rifle itself would be a little difficult to spot, considering the muzzle flash wasn't as bright as more conventional marksman rifles, but it was definitely there and could be spotted by anyone with a good eye looking for just a thing.

"Moving to second overwatch soon, I'm too exposed here. Hurry it up."
