Vernon also bobs and weaves within midair, doing his best to avoid the bullets. A few clip his wings, but they don't do anything to the flames. More fly past his ears, cutting the air as they go. Two graze him, clipping his ear and shoulder. Flesh wounds, but wounds nonetheless. All the while, Vernon's cracking off shots of his own, hoping to score a potshot on Kent. But once Kent stops firing, he leads two bullets in hopes of catching Kent's chest. He then begins to close the distance; turning the sniper rifle into an assault rifle as he rushes toward Kent.
