As much as Markus claimed there were other options to killing, North could point out that there were also other options to Markus throwing himself into bodily harm needlessly. They could and would go round and round about it, but this was not the time for it beyond her verbal admonishment and his physical interference - both too late. Likely, they would revisit it later, back in the safety of Jericho.

Assuming they could keep Jericho safe.

The gun was slick with red blood, her grip on it tightened automatically when Markus sought to take it from her, but a second later had her loosening it so he could take it from her. North didn't like being unarmed for there was power to be found in wielding the humans' weapons against them. Still, she let him take it (if only because she knew there was another gun on the ground a few feet away) hoping that maybe he was actually going to use it. Or carry it. Or just keep it for their growing arsenal.

"Down Ford Street to the automobile scrapyard. There's a well-hidden sewer entrance there and we'll draw a drone along the way," she said, rolling off Markus to crouch with the car acting as cover. This took them the opposite direction the androids would be traveling underground and give them a chance to 'disappear' into the scrapyard.
