Miho nods at Alanna.

"We've got about two minutes before he's supposed to call back, I think. Stick to the edges of the bushes, we should be fine."

She looks over her shoulder at Goldy as she begins to walk off. "And shoot first next time, love." Her smile takes any sting out of the words - it's just advice, tailored specifically to this location, these enemies.

She ducks under the low, dripping branches, moving swiftly but neatly, boots almost silent on the damp ground. Behind them, the man is still and the dog almost as still, only the gently rise and fall of it's ribcage testifying to the fact that it lives.

In front of them is a low building, to the side of a wide set of gates. A few men are visible, but the majority are escaping the rain somewhere, less dligent than they would have bveen in good weather. This can only be to the little party's advantage.
