"N-No! Please! I beg of you!" The bandit begged as he took some steps back. Tripping over nothing and falling onto his bottom as he immediately started to back up desperately, his breaths were ragged as his wide and terrified eyes stared up at the approaching figure. Bodies of fallen bandits surrounded the two, making him the last of his clan. His back bumped into a wall behind him and he couldn't back up anymore than he could. He let out a desperate whimper as he knew that he had nowhere else to go from there, "D-Don't kill me! I beg of you! I-I'll do anything for you! Anything!" The bandit killer smirked with a scoff.

"What could you possibly do for me?" She sneered while holding up her rifle to let it rest on her shoulder, popping a hip out as her eyes scanned over him skeptically. It was very apparent that he was hopeless and was of no use at all to the young woman. The bandit got onto his knees and clasped his hands together in a begging manner.

"Anything! I'll do a-anything that you want me to do!" He pleaded desperately, they both knew that it wasn't enough to his unfortunate dismay. She let out a soft chuckle before squatting down so she's eye to eye with him.

"You gotta be more specific than that, sweetheart." She swooned softly with a smile, "Because I could let you go," She paused as the bandit visibly perked up slightly in hopes that she'll be merciful before a wicked smirk graced her lips, "But I just don't want to." She sneered as the bandit began to shake in fear.

"Please! I'll kill for you! I-I'll scavenge for you! I... I-I'll do anything you want! Just please let me live!" He sobbed. She stood back up and stared down at him with a slight tilt of her head. Her bored gaze almost feigning pity for the man.

"Hm... I guess I'll let you live." She said as his sobs ceased and he slowly looked up at her.

"But on one condition," She started as the man perked up, "If you ever mess with me again, I'll be sure that your last meal will be your own blood when I slaughter you like how I did with your friends here." She sneered darkly as she gestured to the dead bodies surrounding them. He nodded frantically as she smiled and turned to walk away, "Good. Now, you have yourself a good day." She hummed as she walked away, rifle up and resting against her shoulder. The bandit watched her saunter away, sneering as he felt humiliation start to boil inside of him. Grabbing a hatchet from his dead comrade, he sprinted towards her. She swiftly pulled out her gun and shot him in the leg in which he howled loudly in pain while falling to the ground.

"AAAGH!" He howled as his hands tightly clasped his bleeding leg. She clicked her tongue with a disappointed shake of her head and approached his writhing figure.

"Tsk tsk tsk." She sighed with a smile on her face and looking down at the bandit, "Poor puppy. Here, let me put you out of your misery." She cooed softly with a wicked but yet sickenly sweet grin, pressing the gun's barrel against his forehead. He grit his teeth as he looked up at the woman

"B-Bitch-" He sputtered but was cut off with a loud bang and his brains splattered across the desert ground. She sighed heavily as fresh, warm blood splattered across her shirt and face.

"Ugh, dumb bastard." She grumbled with a frown as she stood up and twirled her gun back into its holster on her belt, "This wouldn't have happened if you weren't so stupid." She huffed as she wiped her face off with the back of her arm. Dried blood from the previous bandits crumbling off her skin as she did so. She stood there in the Pandoran heat, it's around noon, looked around at the bandits base and the littered bodies of dead bandits. "Mondays, am I right?" She sighed to a corpse as she looked down at a decapitated head of a bandit that she killed before then punting it with a swift and hard kick of her foot. It goes pretty far and before hitting the ground with a bloody splat.

"Haaah, today's been a boring day." She hummed as she walked over to one of the shelters the bandits stayed in and kicking the door open, "Nothing much to kill, nothing to do," She opened a large trunk in hopes to find anything to loot but to see nothing but junk, "Nothing to loot." She groaned with a sigh as she walked out, "This sucks ass." She grunted with her hands on her hips, "I guess I should head back, but it's so hot. And there's spiderants everywhere here. These dumbasses chose the wrong place to set up their weak base. Now look where it got them." She opened her arms and gestures to her surroundings in exaggeration, "Killed. But not by spidernts. But by ME! And they don't even have anything that's worth LOOTING!" She shouted angrily and kicked another head in  frustration.

(Y/N) (L/N)/ LITTLE RED: THE MOST FEARED BANDIT KILLER ALL OVER PANDORA

[Unfreeze the frame]

(Y/n) stomped her foot down with a huff, "Have to remember to kill that lying sleazebag of a tipster." She growled as she started walking, talking to no one other than herself. Hands shoved into her pockets as she walked for some hours through The Dust before walking into Ellie's garage. "Ellie!" She shouted as she slumped down in a chair from exhaustion, sweat dripped down her forehead, leaning her head back and letting it hang with her eyes closed.

"I'm comin', I'm comin'!" A voice said as a rather... large woman came in. She looked over at the young woman and placed her hands on her hips, "You're covered in blood and sweat! How nasty!" She said as she grabbed a bucket of somewhat clean water and a hand towel, "You must smell terrible."

"Awe, thanks. It's my natural musk. Like it?" (Y/n) replied sarcastically with a playful smile.

"You must have been bangin' a foul man for you to end up smelling like him if that's his musk that rubbed off on you." Ellie mumbled under her breath while wetting the towel. She laughed as she shook her head.

"Oh god no. I will never have any form of sex in any way with any man from Pandora, whether they're attractive or not." She scoffed as she took the wet towel Ellie handed her.

"So you like your men clean?" Ellie asked with a brow raised as (Y/n) snorted.

"I like my men who are at least keeping their hygiene in check." She stated as she cleansed her arms, hands, neck, and face off from the sweat and blood, "They don't have to be clean clean. There's no such thing here on Pandora."

"Yeah, I guess you're right about that." Ellie hummed as she goes over to a truck to continue her work as a mechanic. (Y/n) sighed heavily as she stripped from her dirtied clothes until she was just in her bra and panties. "Someone'll see you." Ellie warned with a small laugh as she glanced at (Y/n) who waved her off.

"Pft! Like who?" She retorted with a smile as she picked up her dirty clothes and dropping them into the hamper.

"Like us?" A voice said, not Ellie's. They both turn around to see none other but the famous group of the Crimson Raiders. Lilith, Roland, Mordecai, and Brick. The voice belonging to Lilith, who looked at (Y/n) with a brow raised and small smile on her lips.

"Yeah but you guys are  different." She laughed as she got clean clothes and slipped them on, "Hey by the way." The group rolled their eyes with chuckles as Ellie waddled over to them.

"What brings ya'll here?" She asked with a smile and they all sat down together.

"Just a vehicle to take us to this group of bandit's camp." Mordecai said as (Y/n) joined them.

"Why don't you guys just walk?" She asked.

"'Cause it's too hot out to walk." Brick said as he looked over at her.

"How far away is it from here?" Ellie asked.

"About 4 hours away in walking distance." Roland informed as (Y/n) hummed with a nod.

"Yeah I just got back from there." She said, "Killed all of them, there wasn't anything good there to loot." She claimed as she leaned back in her seat with a sigh. They all looked at her as Lilith sighed as well.

"Did you walk?" She asked as (Y/n)'s silent for a few seconds before letting out a quiet 'yeah'. Lilith shook her head at her, "Stupid."

"I told her to take the damn truck but she insisted on walking there." Ellie sighed as everyone laughed a little.

"Hey!" (Y/n) pouted as she crossed her arms, "I didn't think it'll be that hot out today!"

"It's always hot though." Mordecai stated with a chuckle. She frowned and let out a huff.

"Not all the time..." She grumbled. Roland chuckled and ruffled her hair.

"Not all the time, no. But most of the times, yes." (Y/n) whined and Roland hummed, "But thanks for giving us the heads up though. We'll still go double check to make sure there's still anything to take from there." She nodded as Ellie goes to get them a vehicle. After a bit, they all hopped into the truck and drove off. The sun started to set as the two women watched the Vault Hunters drive further down until they're just a speck.

"You should be a Vault Hunter, (Y/n)." Ellie suggested and (Y/n) snorted, "I'm serious, darlin'! You have the physique, looks, attitude. You can make somewhat a better living taking up tasks for others than killing bandits on the daily."

"Nah, I don't have what it takes." She said with a shrug, "I don't even think Vault Hunting is my kind of thing." She hummed as Ellie sighed and began to walk back into the garage.

"Suit yourself. I'm just saying, there's a lot more opportunities out there to take while they're still out there. Big ones!" She emphasized as she stretched her big arms open and disappearing into the garage. (Y/n) continued to stand there in silence, letting Ellie's words sink in before looking up at the sky. The "H"  shaped moon base stationed in one place of Pandora's orbit that's seen by many on the daily, Helios.

"Opportunities..." She murmured softly in thought before snapping out of it and shaking her head with a sigh, "I'm 19 for crying out loud." She told herself while hugging her arms and walking back to the garage before stopping and looking back up at the overseeing station. "I still have time..." She said softly.

A/N: Hey guys! I hoped you liked this first chapter, I hope it was good! I've just started recently getting really into the Borderlands series and I fell in love with Handsome Jack. I don't know why. It's weird. But I can't help it. Anyway, vote and comment if you want and I'll see all you kiddos in the next chapter!
