Tch… So as we have guessed, they decided to attack during the trade.
I took cover behind one of the walls and flicked the safety off my shotgun.
I quickly dialled Amber's number which was answered within a single ring, "Amber? Girls? Where are you all?"
"Oh! Is it time for us to show up?!"
"No, just wanted to check if anything has happened on your side. We're getting attacked as we predicted but we should be able to handle it. Just be ready in case anything unexpected happens."
"You got it! Just call again and I'll rush to you immediately!"
I hung up the call and breathed out.
"Well… I guess we're really doing this huh?" I muttered, taking a moment to peek around to make mental notes on where everyone was.
Ries and Yumiko also pulled out their rifles while Renata was the only one who was unarmed.
I nodded at them and we leapt into action.
