*clink*
A single bullet shell fell to the ground.
"Confirmed kill, Vriska." Rose said.
"Sweet, I’m on fire today! There’s nothing more satisfying than being at the top of my game."
Rose and Vriska were sitting atop a cliffside. They were staring down into a vampire encampment down in the valley.
Vriska was laying in the grass while keeping her gun steady, grinning in spite of her accuracy that night. Rose was prone beside her, looking through a spotting scope to aid Vriska.
"Hey, there's another one by the tent area. Pluck him off before he finds the bodies and runs into the ruins.” Commanded Rose.

Vriska fired, tagging the beast in the throat. She pulled back on the reloading bar, ready for a new target
"Any more for me Rose? Because if not, we gotta head down there."
Rose was well aware of this fact. She and Vriska made a well rounded team, but Vriska had practically no close combat skills. If it was time to go into the ruins, Rose would be going inside alone. She and Vriska had probably cleared all of the thralls, but this head vampire must be pretty strong to have so many. The thought of going up against it sent shivers down her spine. Head vampires were no joke.
"I don't see any more, we're gonna have to head down." Rose said.
Vriska nodded, breaking her long, red sniper down into separate parts and putting them in a case. Separately, Vriska pulled out two handguns. Rose pulled a long box from her backpack, opening it to reveal two long, and thin knives, almost needle-like.
Rose and Vriska began their descent from the cliff, moon illuminating their path towards the ruins. Rose checked around the tent area, making sure that Vriska had taken out all of the vampires.
"All good over there Rose?” Vriska called out. “Did I get them all?"
"Yep, good job." Rose replied.
Vriska made her way to the entrance of the ruins, peering through the doorway for more vampires.
"Entrance is clear." She said.
Rose walked over, crouching down next to Vriska
"Alright Vriska, you know the drill. I'll go in, take out the head vampire. If it's too much too handle, I'll get them to chase after me and run out of the entrance. Wait until I pass you and open fire with your pistols. Got it?"
"Yeah, I got it. Just go on in already, I want to go home."
"I'll be back shortly. If I'm not back in 20 minutes, climb back up the cliff. If I'm gone for more than 15 minutes after that, assume I'm dead and run back to the motorcycle. No point in you dying too."
"I know, I know! Just get going already!"
"Fine. Just remember the plan."
"I will, now go!"
