People begin to flee in all directions, causing utter confusion. The fallen officer's partner has come to his aid, frantically calling for help on his radio as he checked for a pulse. Within seconds, a news copter buzzed high overhead and a multitude of sirens wailed in all directions, converging on the park.
Khris calmly walked to an empty bench in plain sight and sat down, as if awaiting his fate. The billboard clock in one of the adjacent coffee shops flashed 3:45 PM.

*Silverfire zips down to the cop next to his shot partner, cancelling the circle, letting it burn out* "There's someone planted landmines here, same one who shot your buddy." *He says quickly* "You've got to clear the park." *and off he goes.* (OOC: By the way the cop fell, can he see about where the shot came from?)

*sticks to the shadows like it was her second home (prowl 22/45) and then using her street smarts, moves off in the area she believes the sniper is in (streetwise 08/20), and pauses in a deeper pool of shadows and stops, looking back at William

The sirens continued to gain in strength and numbers, but they almost seemed to be drowned out by the police officer's only reponse. " Y..you.. you're one of those stinkin' freaks." He immediately raises his radio again, calling one his radio again. " Shots fired, Marinaview Park. Officer down, needs assisstance. Positive id mutant involvement."
Dropping his radio mic, the frazzled cop frumbled for his service 9mm, but in his current state, he can't clear his holster fortunately.
In the chaos , no one notices Sparks hiding place despite a collision close call with a fleeing elderly man.
Both come to the conclusion that the shot probably came from one of the high rises as Khris had suggested.

*silverfire maxes his speed and races in an arc towards the skyscrapers, looking as he goes, trying to spot open windows... relying on his old army training. When he finds the sniper rifle, he'll zero in on it.*

*then moves across the street, using the fleeing people as a cover to stay hidden, and vanishes down the side street, intent on reaching the back alley's to search and watch for something out of the ordinary - like a parked car with a driver in it, with the motor running

[Silverfire]
There are several open windows as it is a fairly warm day, but as he checks them systematicatically, the glint of sunlight reflecting off something and a black object standing behind the rustling shears of the slightly open patio door grabbed his attention near the top of one building.
But as he closed, a loudspeaker distorted voice called from above as a police helicopter neared. " Unidentified mutant, stand down. this will be you're only warning."
[Sparks]
No one questioned her wanting to get away just like everyone else, and no one noticed her slip into the alleys. As she rolled passed one that led back towards the carnage in the park, a oddly familiar blur of movement caught her eye, but dissappeared before she could look again, ditracted by the sounds of screeching tires and yelping sirens for a split second.

*Presuming the glint to be his target, he races to the building. All the while grumbling that he's going to need a higher profile... not that this wouldn't do it... * "Unidentified indeed. 60 years ago, everyone in Europe knew who I was." *he grumbles as he races on, applying some of the evasion tactics he's known and practiced for 3/4s of his life. At the building, he'll drop the flames, just to reduce collateral damage.*

*slows enough to do a simple spin to give the area the once over, 'oh damn .. i bet that's you Khris, good luck, and nice meeting you at least once dude'
*then turns to face the way she was going and continues to prowl the back alleys, getting the slingshot out and propped up for action if the situation warrents it.

[Silverfire]
As he neared the window, a lone figure can be made out thru the shears, standing behind the unmistakable shape of a rifle on a tripod pointed towards the park. Overhead, the police copter continues to demand his surrender, and the buzz of a pair of news cpoters has joined in.
[Sparks]
The echos of more and more emergency vehicles sirens off the alley walls was deafening as she crept along. A young boy stood on a fire escape, watching her as he ate an ice cream cone. " Cool slingshot. Whatcha hunting, that blury thing? It went that way." He pointed towards the park as he bit into the ice cream.

The alleyway leads back onto the main street ajacent the park. As she comes into the clear, she can see the road is jammed already with emergency personnel and news crews, along with their vehicles. There's no sign of any 'blurry thing' amongst the crowds of gathered onlookers. No one in the crowd pays any attention to her as she moves amongst them. The overheard conversations are a comedy of public paranoia, ranging from the work of terrorists to an alien invasion mentioned by an obviously drunk guy. There's no sign of any 'blurry thing'.
She easily makes her way back to where she'd last seen Khris sitting on the bench, just outside the taped off investigation area, leaned back staring at the sky behind his sunglasses still seated there. He made no acknoledgement of her approach until he spoke without looking up. " I thought you were getting out of here? "

*William rams through the open window, stopping just after the gun pod* "Hello, I don't believe we've met." *he says, touching down with grace, the whirr of the helicopters distorting the cutrains. At which point he watches her, for a reaction, and listens to inflections in her voice. (cause, it was likely that Mara's left, after taking over someone's apartment. Or else Mara pretending to be the prisoner.)*

*to Khris quietly* 'either you're faster on your feet than me .. or you got a double thats out here hunting you. Just passed it going in, so keep a lookout for your back. Nice meeting you at least once, take care of yourself'
*moves off a little, and closes off the slingshot, due to the fact of too many people standing around. Then keeps the eyes moving about, trying to find the 'double' that came this way, and keeps a hold of the marble, just in case.
