Heist the Colours (RP)

"Great job, Bob!" Ronny tells him on the phone. "Let's hope that gives someone an opening. Let it run for half a minute, then turn it off. We don't want too much attention."

He checks the situation from behind the tree again. That one holding GJ is heading to that exit. He looks left and right and spots a possible alternative route of a path running behind a hedge. He decides to take it in hopes of cutting off the hostage taker.

Loud music starts playing, coming from somewhere around the block. The guy on the rooftop hurries to the edge of the roof, bends over to see where the noise is coming from.
I got you now...
He steadies his gun with both his hands exhales and squeezes the trigger.

Cat analyzes the pattern of her movements, planning to come in at an angle to Ronny and catch GJ in between them.

The sound of the gun is camouflaged by the music coming from Bob's van.
The guy on top of the roof jerks back as the laser hits him.

'' I took down the guy on the roof, don't know for sure how bad he's hurt. I'm going to wait here for a minute of 2 to see if he shows himself again''

Lio keeps his eyes fixed on the roof. He is sure it was a good hit, but you never know... The guy might have been wearing some armour.

Cat stops to take another look around.

"Damn... my only chance... and I have to take it... to break this draw." - Raf thinks before aiming at Craigs gun and... firing his own... to try to disarm him.

"Whoops! As I told you... no holes in your chest! But I thought... getting rid of your gun could allow us to have a much nicer conversation... don't take it too personally!" - Raf tries to shout over the "music", with a brazen, if not slightly uncertain tone of voice and looks on his face. This uncertainty... of Craig reaction makes him instinctively move towards nearest thing that could provide him with anything resembling cover.

Cat cuts around the outside, moving to the most likely position where GJ will emerge.

Ronny can just barely see the clothing of GJ's assailant through the shrubs he's walking past. Hoping that they are too busy looking out for Cat and the others, he tries his best to use this to his advantage. He ducks a bit, getting his head away from the top of the plants and keeps going along them. Not running, but at a steady walking pace.

He's happy to hear that Lio managed to take out one of them.

With some luck they'll head this way and I can try to trip them or something.

Only slightly out of breath, and pretty sure that nobody noticed, Ronny reaches a bush a bit further down. If his calculations are correct, it looks like GJ and their captor will be passing by him. He looks around for materials. There has to be something here to trip someone with. A stick, or a big rock?

Within seconds he spots a sturdy looking tree branch that probably fell down not too long ago. About the length of a golf club. Ronny grabs it quietly and presses his back into the bush to conceal himself better. Not long after, he hears footsteps and sees the same color of clothing through the gaps in the shrubbery. Just as the feet walk past him, Ronny pushes the stick through the bush in an attempt to trip them.

Raf seeing that Craig is not "very understanding" about his hand being hurt by Raf's shoot... feels his anger, and realizes that the time of talking has ended(not only because of Bob's "wonderful" taste in music...)... and now the time of shooting has begun!

Taking advantage of the fact that Raf has taken a few steps towards the nearest trees earlier, he accelerates to the run to take position behind them as soon as possible and respond to Craig - to give tit for tat.

Rafael even with the Bob's music... engulfing the whole area... heard Craig's shots... as apparently he is one of "those thugs" that even with an injured hand don't stop shooting. But fortunately few first shots missed, while Raf was running towards the trees.

"Yeah! I will made it!" - Raf thinks when he is almost behind the trees. But then... when he puts his left hand on the tree trunk, to make his u-turn faster and balanced... he feels two strong shoots at left part of his back... apparently and fortunately those are stopped by his flack jacket... but the impact was so strong that he almost fall over on his face. But the hand holding the trunk allowed him to keep his balance and hide behind the tree.

"My back... my coat... I don't know what hurts more... Craig! You will get my pay back for sure!" - Raf thinks with the rage rising within him and starts shooting back at Craig.
