Drake was blinded by the mud and felt himself flying through the air as Zira followed. Using his other senses and enhanced abilities through experiments he was able to parry some of the Air Rave while being hit by the rest of it but he was helpless to defend himself against the Rain Storm. Drake hit the ground and hit the ground hard as he grunted in pain. Meanwhile Ayanna had no way to follow Amoura as she went after the snipers.
“Dammit!”
Ayanna turned around to see Drake hit the ground. He was definitely going to feel that one in the morning. Ayanna ran towards the scene and fired off more shots with the .44 Magnum while Zira was still falling down to the ground. Drake rolled against the ground and got up quickly, moving his sword into a defensive stance as he waited for Zira to make the next move. |

Thus far, all the memories about the group that loud-mouthed, white-haired freak was with had been confirmed but she was erring on the side of caution. No one could take down two possibilities without further evidence, especially when there were more variables to the equation.
Up from the darkness she came, wrapped her arms around another sniper and dragged him to his death. Mouthful after mouthful of blood from her slain prey now completed, she got all the information she needed:
Drake, Ayanna and Zach are part of a military group led by someone who's touched in the head and they have a science division; their project remained unknown to these dead men. The memories entailing a tank and planes got her attention.
Taking down those wouldn't be too difficult but there were people who lived in this city. If a plane crashed...
Zira! Amoura's thoughts reached her sibling and the urgency would hopefully get enough of her attention, These guys are part of a military organization and they are sending in planes and a tank! We may have to leave! There are a lot of humans nearby! If any of those go down then many may die. Got any ideas?

Zira felt the mind of Ayanna enter the fray while she continued to fall back down towards the ground. While still falling the Firebird performed Twosome Time with Ebony & Ivory in the air, shooting at Drake White where he stood and shooting down the .44 Magnums before Zira's bullets made their way to Ayanna. Upon landing on the ground Zira Firestone folded her arms, Ebony aimed at Drake and Ivory aimed at Ayanna as she unleashed a Charge Shot towards both elite soldiers.
"Zira! These guys are part of a military organization and they are sending in planes and a tank! We may have to leave! There are a lot of humans nearby! If any of those go down then many may die. Got any ideas?"
And on that note Zira saw one of their tanks coming this way far out into the distance. It was an M1 Tank and it meant business as the main gun was aimed straight ahead for her position. Even if she dodged that tank gun when it got within range it could do serious damage to the surrounding area. Then she had an idea.
Just one.
Zira's eyes went back over to Drake and Ayanna to see what state they were in after her previous assault.

Drake repelled the bullets that came his way while Ayanna rolled out of the way. When the charged shots came they both jumped over it and then back flip away from Zira once they hit the ground as now the tank drove up. Both Drake and Ayanna would leave way for the M1 Tank as it main gun now aimed towards Zira and opened fire. Drake and Ayanna lied in wait for a chance to strike Zira should the tank fail. |

Zira rested her eyes on the tank as it came for her. She hoisted both her weapons and calmly walked towards the tank main gun as it fired at her. The Firebird didn't make any attempt to move out of the way as she couldn't allow this tank to do any damage to the area or kill any innocent people. Instead Zira absorbed the shots, her demonic aura starting to rise in power as she felt her anger and adrenaline increase. With each shot that hit her dead on that anger and adrenaline only rose higher and higher until finally it has finished charging. The man driving that tank has chosen the wrong demon to pissed off as the Firebird unleashed her pent up rage in a wave of energy that tore the tank apart and brutally killed the man inside. The halves of the tank now lied down on the street as her eyes went back to Drake and Ayanna.
It was time to end this. The Firebird burst forward so fast that she vanished midcharge and then reappeared behind Drake with Ebony now pressed up against his temple. To make sure Ayanna didn't try anything funny Zira used the pervert as a human shield so if Ayanna tried to shoot at her it would hit Drake instead. Zira figured that the army wouldn't want to lose one of it's prized possessions so holding one of them hostage was their way of getting out of here without risking further harm to innocent civilians. Thinking that Drake would have too much pride to surrender she looked over to Ayanna.
"Tell your men to stand down and allow my sister and I easy access out of the city or he dies!"

Drake could see the concern swelling up in Ayanna’s eyes as she watched him being held up at gunpoint like this by The Firebird. He knew what she was about to do and he didn’t like it, he didn’t like it one bit.
“Ayanna, don’t you dare!”
With her own gun still held out she used her other hand to take out a radio and speak to the other soldiers through it.
“Stand down! I repeat, stand down!”
All the soldiers fell back and now there was nothing separating Zira and Amoura from leaving the city except the air all around them.
“Take your sister and go.” |

"About damned time. I only killed all of your snipers."
Amoura threw one of the bodies off the building and joined Zira who was holding Drake captive. Sometimes, she really admired her negotiation methods.
"I'd go as far as to ask what you're doing in your science facility but that'll be for another time." The vampire snorted at Ayanna, "Really should be more careful as to what you tell some of your soldiers."
Amoura nodded to Zira and walked down the cleared path, away from their opponents, but waited for her sister to catch up.

Zira could see the worry in Ayanna's eyes and didn't have to be a mind reader to predict her next move. She almost felt bad about holding Drake hostage when she sensed the strong emotions this woman had towards him, the woman was on the verge of total reliance of this man. Ayanna saw a side to Drake that most others didn't and it was a shame the man didn't show that side more often. When Amoura reappeared Zira released Drake and pushed him over to Ayanna before following Amoura out of town, smiling as she looked towards her sister.
"It's good to see you again."
As much as she wanted to catch up there was business to discuss first. Mainly how she ended up here. Zira wasn't used to asking questions anymore. She usually just read the person mind when they weren't expecting it to get the info she needed but Zira didn't do that with allies. Especially when they were family.
"I was in the middle of a fight with Mundus when a rift tore open and pulled me into this world. You wouldn't happen to know the cause by any chance would you? Is it the same demon that brought you to my world?"
