Jacinda's heart beat steadily as she kept her bead on the girl. She was aware of Tenzin behind her and to the left. If Jacinda were hit, Tenzin would be able to take cover or respond.
The girl kept her gun low and tried to calm the situation, calling the....well what the hell?...Drones. She'd never really used them. Not really sure why. Maybe it was the same reason why Tenzin was reading out of an actual book and writing in a notebook instead of feeding shots of that writing into some app or something.
Or not. She'd have to ask.
Anyway, calling the drones down. Despite herself, she smiled at the names. Not that that cleared her. But a step in the right direction.
Anyway, girlie was saying all the right things and had her hand out in the official sign of 'please don't shoot my drones, they cost me 5 weeks allowance!' and Jacinda lowered her gun carefully, backing up.
Shit, she was acting paranoid. Course there was a saying about that. What she had read had her spooked.
"Ok. Ok. We're calm. It's ok. You can come out."
Damn, she was really wishing for some signals so she could say something to Tenzin. Because just as the girl passed the kill zone would be the best time to strike. Hopefully, though, she was thinking the same. Still had her gun down, but ready, giving her space, backing up, she was ready.
"We're not unfriendly. Just making sure people are what they say they are. Who are you? What do you need a terminal for?"
