Yelena smiles at Jed. "PI man sure alright? Yelena worry. Arc get eye on Yelena hide sight and keep on place of second shooter. That one is Yelena target. Might work in favor even if Yelena not kill. Bounty on Yelena is very large. Many assassins will want a chance. If Yelena shoot assassin but not tell VG then other assassins now watch over back for their competition to kill them. More assassins look for other assassins than look for Yelena. Dead man not collect or spend bounty so maybe not as many try. Yelena go."
Yelena leaves the hotel room and slips out the door unnoticed by the attendant. She makes her way to the building she has selected as her hide spot and begins to ascend the stairs carefully and quietly. Her only company is a couple of rats as she walks to the roof access. The door is secured on the inside with a simple latch and she opens it after checking the feed from the drone that is watching this building and noting that no one is on the roof. Yelena notes that some snow is brushed away by the bottom of the door then checks to see that there are no recent footprints in the snow beyond the arc of the door swing. Stepping across the threshold, she slips sideways away from the door and looks around the roof. It is not that she distrusts the drone feed, but some things are best when double checked. Satisfied that no one is on the roof with her, Yelena walks to the narrow parapet overlooking the street and checks the feed on drone 1, which is watching the second assassin. This person is good and Yelena nods approval at the choice of hides he or she has made. The assassin is nearly invisible, which is a good sign that this one is a professional. Yelena also approves of using the cutout as a sacrifice, which is tough on the first shooter, but is a good plan from the perspective of the second assassin. Yelena settles down on the roof back from the parapet and opens her case, removing her sniper rifle, smiling at the feel of the weapon in her hands, She quickly assembles the rifle and snaps the first magazine into place.
Yelena moves to the parapet and sets up her firing position while monitoring both drone feeds. She spins up the wireless components and takes aim at the target. She zooms the magnification is as much as she needs to be able to see the breath of the shooter and flips the sight to thermographic capability to make sure that the target is a person and not a dummy, which would be a serious issue. Yelena nods at the lack of thermo heat signature, again congratulating the shooter on his choices. She focuses on the head and is pleased to see the narrow cloud of breath that gives her the idea that she is looking at a live target. She still has a few minutes until ten, so she begins the steps to control her breathing and shits her aim to the target's exposed head. She plans on taking the shot after several seconds of aiming at the target and gently squeezes the shot off.
She knows that shot was accurate but is prepared with a second one.
