Well, this was it.
She takes a slow sip of water from her bottle, noticing her hands are shaking slightly. That's good, means she's awake, means her body is prepared. Get in, get the info get out. When you boil it down to the objectives it was going to be simple enough.
Tossing her bottle in the recycling and sending a polite nod the storekeepers way Yūrei steps out onto the street and slowly walks the two blocks to the temple itself. Her heart hammers painfully loud in her chest but outwardly she's calm, just another face on a busy road.
There's plenty of visitors to the temple this time of day and it's simple enough to join them through the main entrance and follow the crowd deeper into the building. The only difference is that she quietly steps into a room marked maintenance, a room with a tiny overhead vent behind a vent...

Turns out that Yūrei was extremely unlucky. She had decided to sneak into to temple the day the 'Hawkeye' Jiro was on duty, the alert guardsman noticing the wolf as she tried to make her way through the premises.
"Oi you! Halt!" Holding a cone lantern in his free hand, the guardsman was scrambling for his gun. "Alert!"

Just her luck Hawkeye had to be here.
"Sorry!Thoughitwasthebathroombye!"
Yūrei turns and sprints as fast as her legs can carry her, bounding through the crowd, certain she could feel the guard drawing a bead on the small of her back.

"Sneaky little rat!" The guardsman pulled the trigger, his aim true, the radiant energy burning Yurei's shoulder. "Alert! Alert!"

But if anything she speeds up flying down the temple steps three at a time, knocking monks and tourists to the side. She just has to keep pushing.

"Oi, rat, stop!" Jiro shouted, squeezing trigger one more time. This time his shot grazed Yurei's shoulder. "Alert!"

Okay, who was to say who was in the wrong here? But if that prick would just stop shooting her....
Nearly stumbling on a loose tile she rights herself and manages to turn it into a forward roll, Yūrei's momentum carries her into the street where she springs up and races into the adjoining alley, leaving Hawkeye behind.
((two simple actions moves to run 40' and make her escape!
Spending a void point to reduce damage taken by 10))

With the alarm raised, more guards poured to the location as the men and women began to scour the premises.
