Ava can barely spare a glance to see what he's speaking of, and of course they're going to need to move up to accommodate. She pulls out the emptied clip in her gun and quickly reloads, taking several steps ahead so she can engage the raiders as they get closer. "I've got you covered." She can take much more punishment than he can, after all.

Deacon's done enough to take two down, another limping along and debating non-engagement. Ava steps ahead to continue shooting, precise with every shot she makes despite the potential for injury to herself. Once, she feels the scrape of a bullet into her arm and still keeps firing, waiting on one of the heavy-hitters to come close. She casts again without a single gesture, taking blood from him to increase her own stores. He seems just as confused, stuttering to a stop even with the chain gripped in his fist and the nasty looking knife in his other hand. She immediately engages in the moment, striking him twice in the face and then grabbing his wrist. Ava doesn't manage to break it hand but she pulls it enough to get him to drop the weapon. Two bullets finish the job and she sets her sight again on the enemies closing in, ready to fire again while Deacon works at the manhole.
