Marked

Olivia had her scattergun trained at the Cobra from her hip. From where she was standing, a blast from the weapon would likely dismember most of both the Xeno's and Pedro's body. For a brief second, she considered pulling the trigger and ending the farce right then and there. But reason proved victorious - ending it like this lacked the satisfaction she so desired, nor could she guarantee that Moretti wouldn't manage to place a round in her skull.

Staring at the snake, eyes furious, she slowly lowered the gun.

"Make it quick," she finally growled through clenched teeth. The very sight of Pedro made her body tense up, like the string of an overdrawn bow, threatening to snap from even the slightest increase in tension.
