11-Penny dies at the end
A lone figure roams the empty streets of the dark city, avoiding police and the random Grimm that managed to sneak in, trekking about with purpose. Seeking out the four causing all of the city's strife. If she's lucky, they'll come after her.
Walking through the alleys, not being careful with the intensity of her footsteps, the figure tightens the baggy hoodie around her form as she looks about to spot anything out of place. So far, nothing but shadows and city noises. She won't stop, though. Just like every law enforcer crawling through the city, she can't stop until this whole situation is finally fixed.
Even if it destroys her.
Getting tired of the moldy brick walls of the alleys, the hooded figure makes her way to the open streets. Careful with any uniformed officials or beastly beings on the roam as usual.
Fast forward an hour or so, the shattered moon hangs dead center above the sky. Still nothing. Fearing that the four killers are in a different part of the city, she heads West to a nearby scrap yard before calling it a night. Nearing the closed gate, although for a second, she gets a glimpse of someone ducking into a building...... That's definitely out of place.
Sneaking over to the gate, a chain link fence, she manages to squeeze between a wide enough gap to get into the scrap yard. Piles of metal and rust surrounding her the further in she goes. Sneaking around, she makes it to the front entrance of the building. Somewhat dark and full of shelves filled with tools, disassembled machinery, and more scrap metal are what greet her inside. Along with faint footsteps echoing from afar. Sneaking to the side, our mysterious character tiptoes further inside. The hoodie she wears concealing her well.
Not too well, apparently.
Another figure appears from behind and wraps an arm around her neck in a choke hold. The other arm swinging around with a knife and embedding it in her chest. The force of the blow causes her to let out a gasp. What little moon light emanating from the windows reveals the pale white mask of Ghostface behind our poor victim.
Ghostface: I would have had fun with you, but I'm on a tight schedule right now. So just die for me, k?
The stab victim shakily reaches up and grabs Ghostface's arms... He feels her grip suddenly grow extremely tight. Before he can react, the two are soon launched backwards by the hooded girl jumping with abnormal force. They both crash into a shelf as the contents on it come crashing down on top of them, dust and rust particles flying about from the hit.
A pile of wood and metal lays immobile in the middle of the building, engulfing the two. A black glove pops out and grabs a hold of a broken engine before pulling the rest out of the rubble. Ghostface manages to wedge himself out of the mess with a few small bits of metal sticking out of him, completely confused on what the hell just happened.
The hooded figure soon launches from the pile and lands on her feet, catching Ghostface's attention. The knife from before is no longer embedded in her chest, but firmly in her hand..... Not a drop of blood on it. Looking up, Ghostface sees the hood is down and reveals a pale freckled face with curly orange hair and a dumbass pink bow on top. A pair of piercing green eyes staring back at him.
Penny: Target acquired!
She drops the knife and makes her way over to Ghostface, having some trouble trudging through the debris.
Remembering that this girl took an entire knife to the chest, no blood whatsoever, Ghostface shuffles back to get away from her.
Ghostface: Nope! I know when I'm out matched! A LITTLE HELP, PLEASE!
A figure from the shadows nearby quickly jumps out and shoulder charges Penny, knocking her back. She ducks and rolls to her feet and stares down her new opponent. Smile. The masked figure brandishes her signature hunting knife and takes a battle stance.
Penny stands up straight as she extends her arms out. The back of her hoodie suddenly forms strange protrusions seemingly trying to burst out. Then they do, as eight short blades shoot out and surround the little ginger. Each one pointing directly at Smile.
Two of the floating blades quickly launch to the side and embed into a rusty engine, flinging it right at the killers. Smile jumps out of the way and Ghostface ducks down as the bulky piece of machinery flies over his head. The engine hits a wall and smashes to pieces on the floor from the impact. That would have done some serious damage to a human being.
Smile quickly ducks between some shelves to hide, Ghostface doing the same as he crawls under another shelf. Penny wastes no time in unleashing her blades all around, knocking over several shelves and destroying more machinery. The two killers dodging both blades and falling scrap. Penny spots Ghostface out of the corner of her eye and flings three blades at him. Two are easily dodged, but the last manages to impale him in the shoulder and pin him to a wall. He lets out a painful grunt as blood seeps from the puncture wound.
He grabs at the blade to try and pry it from his shoulder. The two others are easily pulled from the wall and return to Penny, now searching for the other killer. The remaining seven blades at the ready to skewer a bitch.
Up in the rafters, Smile shimmies along the structure to get right above Penny. As the ginger glances back over to Ghostface, Smile makes her move and jumps down with knife at the ready. With inhuman reflex, Penny quickly looks up and brings her blades up to block. The killer lands on top of the blade-shield, knife barely reaching the girl's face, and is soon flung to the side just to crash into a worktable. Smashing it on impact as Smile skids across the floor afterward.
Psychobot distracted, Ghostface slowly manages to remove the damn blade out of his shoulder. The offending weapon suddenly launches out of his hands, as if being pulled, and returns to Penny. He wastes no time and picks up a lead pipe from the ground and glares down his opponent.
With Smile getting back to her feet, Penny is now surrounded by the two killers. Not that big of a deal, though. They have a knife and pipe, while she has eight floating FUCKING SWORDS....! That can also shoot lasers.
Using six, Penny transforms those blades into two turrets and aims them at her assailants. She immediately opens fire as she launches the last two to the ceiling and raises herself up. The two killers quickly avoid the shots and dodge behind more shelves for protection. Overall, this situation isn't looking good for our two killers.
Ducking behind a broken down car, Ghostface just sits down and avoids getting shot as he tries to think of something. Looking around, he spots a jerry can nearby........ This could work. He drags the jerry can close and opens the cap. Taking a big whiff from the can, he rips a strip of fabric from his coat and stuffs it in the opening. As the fabric is placed, he pats himself down for a lighter. Finding one, the little cloth is lit and Ghostface soon stands to take aim for a throw.
Back to Penny, she hangs from the ceiling as her two turrets focus on Smile trying to make a run for a metal table. She jumps back and forth to avoid the shots, albeit poorly as a few have already nicked her in the sides.
Ghostface: Hey!
Penny turns around just in time to see Ghostface toss a jerry can right at her. It is immediately caught in her arms as she stares at the gasoline canister in confusion... Then she notices the burning rag at the opening.
Penny: Oh.
A small jet of flame soon launches out of the cap right before blowing the fuck up in her face.
*K A B O O O O M M ! ! !*
Both girl and ceiling are quickly engulfed in flame as the force of the explosion collapses the roof. The two killers quickly duck out of the way of falling debris as the building begins to crumble apart around them.
Dust and smoke fill the air as the whole building just burns in a pile. Ghostface manages to crawl out from under a small pile of wood and scrap metal, a little more bloodied than before. Standing up, he looks around to try and find his companion.
Ghostface: Smile, that explosion could have alerted every cop in the city! We need to leave!
As he says that, a sharp pain engulfs his back as a barrel is thrown at him. Collapsing to the floor, he rolls around and sees something straight out of an action movie. Walking out of the flames is a burning robotic humanoid with very familiar piercing green eyes staring at him. Five of the eight blades surrounding it, two somewhat broken while three are more than enough to finish him. Its mouth opens and closes as if trying to talk, but all that comes out is faint static.
The burning android is suddenly jolted to the side as a sledgehammer is swung at her head from behind, revealing a somewhat burnt Smile with said hammer in her hands. The mechanical girl turns around only to be met with another hard hit to the head, forcing it to stumble back from the force. Deep dents forming wherever the hammer hits.
The killer brings the sledgehammer over her head, followed by a little jump, and brings it down hard on the chrome dome's dome. Almost embedding the tool as its green eyes begin to flicker. Smile boots it off of her hammer, kicking it to the ground, and continues to pulverize Penny's metallic head. A metallic bang echoing through the air each time. After a few more swings, she finally stops. Revealing a burnt, broken, motionless robot with the head caved in into nothing.
Ghostface, watching all of this unfold, glances over to the city to see if there are any cop lights approaching. What he finds is something that peaks his interest. Catching Smiles attention, he points to the bulky machinery than back to the downed android.
After a minute of lifting and moving the body, they set it on a conveyor belt and turn on the machine. The belt soon rotates and begins to move the android to the open end of a metal box, the sound of revving engines coming from it. As the broken bot known as Penny drops inside, the sound of grinding metal roars out as sparks fly out of the opening. A few seconds later, a small metallic cube pops out of the other end and falls into a pile of more just like it.
Satisfied with their work, Smile and Ghostface quickly hear the sound of sirens coming from the distance. Wasting no more time, the two make a run for it in the back alleys.
Smile: Say, do you think that kill counts for the soul ritual thing?
Ghostface: Smile, not only was that a robot, but a GINGER robot. What do you think?
The two disappear into the night as the scrap yard is soon surrounded by law enforcers investigating on what the hell that explosion was.
