It's winter again in Europe: a blanket of snow covers the woods outside the chalet where Tanya and Annabelle arrive.

A pile of equipment is waiting for them.

"Choppers, eh?" she says with a chuckle. "I bet this little darling here," she pats the sniper rifle, "could take one of those down in one go if I hit the right spot"

Her smile isn't terribly pleasant. "The rotors stop moving, and things get ugly for a chopper pretty damn quick."

"You're always so thoughtful," Annabelle teases. "Ready as I'll ever be," she says, serious now.

Annabelle nods in understanding and follows her friend, gun at the ready. "That should make things a bit easier on us, even if we don't follow the road."

"No reason it can't work both ways," Annabelle replies with a chuckle. "How about we go and say hello to some paratroopers?"

Deadly music indeed. Music written in blood spatter, shredded pine and hot lead on the snowy parchment of the ground.

The barking, single note staccato of Annabelle's sniper rifle and the quick quarter notes of Tanya's pistols cut off the tumbling broken chord of the paratroopers' fire.

The grenadiers' deaths are bright, explosive crescendos that end as quickly as they began.

One by one, their parts come to a violent end, leaving only silence.

Annabelle reloads as well during the lull.

"Some people don't know when to quit while they're ahead," she says with a snort at the sound of new gunfire. "Let's go meet our friends, then."

Annabelle is not smirking too, for the record.

"Tragic," she drawls. "He's going to learn the hard way to be more particular about who he works for."

"A thought to warm the cockles of your heart," Annabelle replies with a grin.

Once they've climbed the hill and met their allies, she keeps glancing toward the main battle, eager to get going.

Because she can?

Annabelle has borrowed another pair of binoculars from one of the SEALs. She's examining the approaching planes for potential weak points. Why shoot individual paratroopers when you can take out the plane, after all?

She nods in response to Tanya's statement. "Might even be able to shoot the planes down, if they're low enough."

"A girl can hope," she teases.

She grins at the SEAL commander. "We'll soften them up for you, even if we end up having to dance with one of them at a time."

Annabelle nods. They're professionals, she's sure they won't be any trouble.

She follows the plane with her eyes, waiting for the plane to make that left turn. One heartbeat, two...there.

Annabelle's rifle makes a muffled crack as she fires at the plane. The armor piercing bullet laughs at the weak windshield glass and the comparatively soft skull of the pilot. He never even knows what hits him, although everyone else in that plane is likely to notice his head exploding and the plane suddenly being without a pilot.

Annabelle reloads and sights again. If she needs to, she'll take out anyone brave enough to spring to the controls, otherwise....well, there are lots of planes.

Annabelle will firmly deny cackling in glee at the look on their faces.

"Come on now, gentlemen," she says with a wink. "You don't want to catch flies now, do you?" She's basking in the admiration, of course. (Once a performer, always a performer.)

She frowns at the retreating plane. "Well, looks like that one's got more braincells to rub together. Pity."

Annabelle nods in understanding. She'll keep any eye out for any more planes trying to make a drop, but most of her attention will be directed toward anyone approaching on the ground.

They can't all have died in the crash, after all.
