[ There isn't an idea in her head to leave Parker there - she might be awful, that wasn't really a point for discussion at this point - but she'd had the best teachers she could imagine when it came to working together. In making sure not to leave behind the people that matter.
So as she rolls off Parker, her body aching even with the other woman's body below her to break the fall. It's a struggle, but she does it with a single-minded focus as stories above them, security bursts out of the fire escape finally. She doesn't take a second's hesitation, shaking, shaking, shaking, as she yanks the gun where it had clattered to the side. Not in the best condition, but it only really needs to do one thing.
She aims up, pulls them into her sight and she's not aiming to hit them, she just needs them to back off - and soon as the first volley of fire hits the ground around them - feels one sting as it cuts her shoulder and - it hurts, it hurts more than anything but she doesn't have time, and she never has time as she lets off her own burst of return fire back at them. Doesn't hit any of them, she's not that good ( one day, she promises, she'll be better than Zer0, better than Mordecai, she'll one shot, on kill and never - ) ]
Tell me when you can move.
[ A second to breathe, as they've ducked back away from the gun shots. ]
