It should have been no secret that in this day and age, some extraordinary means were required to keep one's borders reasonably safe - a lesson that Japan knew all too well. Through a combination of cities like Hyakuji and Kaimu, the super science of research centers like the Photon Power Labs, various vigilantes both masked and not, and forces that the world was not allowed to freely utter even the name of, it fought off the strangest of things relatively regularly. Invention and innovation were a key aspect in all its potential defenses, and it was for that reason, that one Abilio Ferro, had come... here.
"The Kido Foundation's been in the power armour development business for years, though they never got any good at it till lately. All the sponsorship deals they scored helped them on the funding front big time." The man held his cap to prevent it from being blown away in the wind as he looked upon the complex that stood glimmering and yet otherwise hidden to the outside world, by the sprawling forest and mountain landscape.

He was stood upon a hill overlooking the facility, beside a four by four that he had used to drive here alongside his current companions. Abe had gotten out but a few moments ago, and held in his hands a somewhat oversized remote control, as if for one those remote control toy cars. He briefly lifted his arm to check the time on his watch, before looking behind him, to the two he had managed to rope into this.
"I know I'm paying you two for your troubles, but nevertheless, be careful. Just because they've only gotten good recently, doesn't mean they don't keep the older stuff around as cheap upgrades for their security detail. You may have to hurt them pretty badly, or maybe even kill 'em to survive..." Then raising a miniature telescope to one eye, he surveyed the scene, making a few murmurs to himself.

"Any questions before we get going?" Abe asked of both Queen and Lucid.

"First question. Why couldn't you have started out with this sooner?"

...Okay, so it wasn't really a serious question and was more of a jab at his methods. Regardless, at this point she should be eating her own words when she keeps saying she wanted to see him doing something... big, to really prove that he's fighting for something... real, something that doesn't just end up sounding like a fluke or an empty promise. Well, she got what she asked for, doesn't she now? Of course, if he had proposed this idea to her earlier she probably wouldn't have been as eager to take the job as she does now, especially after their last little meeting at the cafe.

In any case, a little summary of what led to Queen being at some hilltop outside Hyakuji with Abilio, a guy who claims to have been undergoing challenges and trials to appease some kind of super powerful entity in order to win a wish to change the world, and... a colleague from work, namely Lucid Talleyrand whom she works alongside with at that really rapidly expanding game company Rabenschwarz. It had been a little while since Abe's little meeting at a maid cafe back in Hyakuji with John and herself, and they had... somehow helped him find an answer for his second 'challenge' thingy. Unfortunately, the next time they did meet it turns out that he had lost, yet again.

However, he also brought with him a third 'challenge' from the so-called Entity, and this time it has to do with... 'chaos'. Upon hearing that, Queen had to admit that it... unnerved her slightly. Especially when she was reminded on what the previous two challenges had entailed, 'wisdom' and 'courage'. She felt like 'chaos' was... too drastically different in essence compared to the other two, it made her question something that she probably should have done much earlier. "...Second question, why would that Entity want... 'chaos', of all things...?"

Well, in any case she's here now isn't she? Now, after meeting up with Abe and learning all about the next challenge and everything, he laid down a plan. One part of it, was apparently to raid some kind of weapon research facility... somewhere. She's not that well acquainted with Japan enough to figure out where they are at the moment, but in any case, that building in the middle of the forest there is apparently their target.

She's also being paid handsomely for it too. Considering her current situation, why wouldn't she take it? "Third question," The fair lady said as she raised a knife in front of her. Surprisingly it wasn't the usual ornate oriental dagger she's been known to usually wield, but it was that of a typical survival knife that would be standard-issue to the military. "When, where and how do we start?"

...A bit dangerously too eager sounding. Truth be told, it has been a really long time since she had to put on her predatory mindset, and when Abe mentioned the job proposal he had for her, well...

Look, don't look at her too shallow, she's not just doing this to satisfy her awakened predatory cravings since it's been dormant for so long. She's really doing this for a reason too, to help Abe fight and win for his... so-called ideal world. Not to say that she really have much of his ideal in mind, she's already practically living as how his ideal world would dictate people to live, with the freedom to do make your own decision and do anything you want, unshackled by the laws and regulation of the governments... No, it's more like, she just wants to see... how far can he push himself, how the 'game' would play out...

She wants to see what made up Abe as the kind of man he is...

"No witnesses, got it." Lucid said cheerfully, her voice muffled slightly by the hockey mask she was wearing.

She toyed with the claw hammer in her gloved hands, giggling at the phrase that came to mind. 'Dead as a doornail'. She never did figure out the origin of that statement. Maybe it was because nails would inevitably be bent by the strike of a hammer? Oh, well. Rule 2 was simple: If it has to look like a crime, don't be a suspect. Anybody who knew Lucid would expect her to go shooting up the place, so she decided to go a bit more stealthily this time. Expectations would be bent like necks and spines!

The thought of killing every guard there didn't affect her emotionally, but spending quality time with Abe and Queen did! Haha, it'd be a nice jaunt, wouldn't it? She adjusted her hoodie's draw strings to make sure her hair didn't pop out. This fresh set of clothes would've have to be burnt after the job, but that was fine. She would just enjoy wearing them while she could. Good clothes, good company, what more could she ask for on this fine bloodstained night?

"I remember that crazy blue haired lady. Oh, what a silly person! If she wins this, she'll probably turn the world into a Mad Max style killfest where only the craziest people survive and form a new civilization." She swept her hands across the air, as it drawing a rainbow. "Funny how there'll be more chaos there than in your new world."

A world without any subjugation would lead to a new paradigm of despair, and she was interested in seeing how that'd play out. Anarchist despair! Free despair! How would human hearts be squashed underfoot in this unchained future? That would be of great interest to her superiors. She patted her hammer, ready to make some orphans with it. Freedom took on many forms. Perhaps she'd give their families freedom from the bonds of love. Since she was working for Abe right now, she had to test out his ideals and see if it drove well.

She didn't know how her co-worker was feeling, though. Happy, but in the eating hungry hungry kind? Oh yes, that seemed like it. How to gauge the mood would be difficult. So, she just turned to Queen and spoke like normal.

"Hey, want to see who gets more kills~?"

It was an innocent question, the same she'd ask her co-workers before she joined Kues Corp. Just because it was actually a really horrible thing didn't mean she couldn't ask it. Or consider it a perfectly valid icebreaker, for that matter. She giggled behind her mask.

"Winner gets treated to dinner, haha! So, how about it?"

"...Because none of the challenges called for it, duh." Some of the tension in the atmosphere seemed to deflate a bit as Abe answered Queen's question, letting loose a small sigh.
"I mean, they were philosophical questions... I'm not the kind of guy who normally beats a bunch of people up to get his answers." No, no, he merely manipulated a museum's security systems and tricked them into being in the same location as a witch cult, that was all.
"But with this... I expect I won't necessarily get the warmest welcome with people. And after I've seen out of that city of your's, I wanna be ready." He peered through the scope again, though raising his fingers as if counting, one, two, three...

"...Second question," And right on cue.
"Honestly, its kinda got me scratching my head too. I mean, again, the others were philosophical. Meanings and stuff. Just 'chaos' is... unhelpful." Yet, Abe evidently had some idea in mind, given where they were and the general 'plan'. The third question that came, he merely answered with a smile and a shake of his head. It seemed that both Queen and Lucid were quite either to get started - though each expressed their enthusiasm quite differently.
"If I pay for that meal, can you two at least make sure to stay focused? If you kill anyone, should be security that's in the way. The researchers will probably piss their pants sooner than they would try to fight you, so its a waste of time and human lives to go after them." Raising a hand, Abe signaled for the women to wait, whilst he lowered the scope and took the remote control in both hands...

The vehicle beside them roared into life as he flipped a switch, and then from there, positioned the sticks of the controller with his thumbs. The wheels of the automobile spun in response, and it soon raced down the hillside towards the facility, just as the gates were raising to let another car in. The larger vehicle knocked the simple car aside even as security failed to shoot out the tires - something Abe had accounted for - until it went on to ram into the side of the building...
"Beep." And the next thing that happened, the vehicle exploded, letting out a shockwave that briefly swept the landscape, and a heat that could be felt from a distance.
"That was... bigger than I thought, but come on, let's go." With the opening made, Abe raced down the hill to seize it, even as security scrambled to put out the resulting fire, and readied itself to try and beat down will billy clubs anyone who might try to get in whilst everything was a mess. The gate fence and wall was pretty darn well electrified and fairly tall, so there was really one main way.

Okay look, sure the fair lady doesn't quite have any qualms when it comes to killing another, but at the very least even she's got SOME standards, enough to shoot the hammer-totting girl accompanying her with a disapproving glare. "Witnesses does not include those who doesn't fight back," The woman said with a hiss, having never been quite as fond with this girl despite working together in the same building practically every day. She could definitely see why Kues would hire her though...

Pardon her show of displeasure, but she's got her own reason for doing this. And surprisingly it's not all related to 'who can get the most kills'.

They gotta wait a bit though, not until Abe's signal comes. The car revved up as its controls were switched to remote. She stayed still as she watched the 4WD roll down the hill and along the lonely road leading up to the building, scaring away a bunch of guards in the process as it broke- BOOM!!!

"...Was that part of the plan...?!" Okay, she knows he said he's going to make a diversion while both her and Lucid slip inside then wreck havoc, but he did not mention anything about there being some kilotons of explosives being detonated! Bit of an exaggeration there by her, but she's shocked okay?! "...Gah- nevermind!" Clearly more miffed than she should be, the Snow Queen darted alongside Abe towards the now open main exit. At this point, any intention of trying to be stealthy should supposedly be burning down in flames just like that poor car.

They just have to fight through everything apparently. Her knife readied, flaming entrance in sight, guards arming up with half of them trying to put out the flame...

This will surely be an entertaining day.

"Focus? Standards? Huh, that's something I didn't expect from you two."

No, Lucid was just screwing around with them. Her laugh and expression didn't quite get that across, though. She just tapped the handle with her knuckles as her co-worker protested. Oh, so the fair lady wasn't so heartless. Okay then. That would be something to work around.

"Well, even if we did things nice and proper, that's still going to be a few orphans we're making. And you know, people that your society find to be bad do tend to take orphans and make them into people who they wouldn't be otherwise. Haha, I'm an example of that!"

Well, not that it mattered much to them, but she'd let them know just because she could. Maybe that could provoke some thought. Of course, she followed that up in a pretty bad way when the vehicle exploded.

"And boom! That's going to be a roomful of kids without dads there." She laughed. "Time for two orphans to fill the orphanage~ La vie est drĂ´le!"

Lucid went in alongside Queen, hammer at the ready as she prepared to obliterate the guards that stood in their way. Nothing personal, but it was the end of the line. Nothing remained for her enemies, not even an afterlife.

"Shut up about the orphanages!" The remarks from Lucid managed to set Abe off a bit, but he mostly put the aggression to use in other faculties. Such as delivering a taser to the neck of a guard right in front of him. Two metal prongs connected to the exposed flesh of the neck, and in the next second, a man spasmed himself into collapsing on the floor. As they dropped, Abe seized the baton that fell loose from their loose, and almost immediately spun it to smack into the side of another man's helmet, disrupting their charge against the hacker. The pause in their step opened up the avenue for another dose of the taser, and another man fell in short order.

Unfortunately, for most of the guards at the gate, they were either too distracted by the explosion and the resulting inferno to realise the trio attacking from behind, or those that did, were just woefully ill equipped. It might have seen perhaps a touch reasonable with either Queen or Lucid for sure - one was a hardened criminal, the other an assassin. But a hacker from Brazil...?
"You boys... and ladies can thank Brasilia. Had to toughen up whilst I was on the run." Abe had paused to correct himself on realising that some parts of those in their way were in fact absent of the y chromosome, but it didn't really stop him from knocking them senseless either. He imagined the others were doing fairly well, as they advanced towards the somewhat sizable hole in the wall he'd managed to make with the big kaboom, they he rather naturally opted for a corridor that wasn't likely to be consumed by flame.

"Look for a sign that reads 'containment area' or 'testing' or something. I'm not quite sure where they'll be keeping what I'm after, but its gotta be somewhere..." He yelled, glancing aside as someone in a labcoat ducked into a nearby room, and one could hear the sound of a barricade being hastily built. More goons came of course, easily dealt with however the group saw fit, and the signs they were looking for might appear...
"Stop right there!" But now, their resistance started to get heavier. A couple of young adults stood at either end of the corridor in which the group found themselves, with armour plates connected by tubes upon their chests and forelimbs. There was a slight glow from various panels as they turned up a dial on their wrists...

And then charged forward with an incredible speed, rearing back their fists. Whilst it wouldn't immediately look like it, their impact could knock a person clear off their feet!

Containment area... Testing...? Those words did not have a very good ring to her ears, thought Queen as she charged in through the little opening they made. As far as she knew the current job scope she was paid to complete did not include anything about looking for... something.

Her mind wandered as she let her body did all the work without her having to even dictate anything. One by one they fell, crumpling to the floor unconscious or in pain after either a forceful kick to their temple or a violent smash on their ribcage by the back of her knife. Those that weren't so quick to go down however... well, either her foot or her fist to their jewels.

...Anyone with the mentality to pick things up within the chaos would realize how odd the fair lady was behaving. For one who calls herself a hardened criminal with the nickname of Snow Queen, she was actually holding back from going out at full force, settling with either knocking them out or leaving them in agonizing, but non-fatal pain. Her priority actually changed the moment she received orders that they are... well, Abe is anyway, searching for something. There's no reason for her to take lives now, unnecessary effort is inelegant. ...That and she was kind of a bit more lenient on those she found to share her biological makeup.

What a sexist.

...Also did I mention how she changed her priority to not go all out on these people?

Well she might just have to take back her words... "...Shite, the hell are those?" The woman spoke up as enemy reinforcement came from the other end of the corridor, armed with some kind of robot suit of a sort. ...Or are those power armors...? God, she could never tell those two apart! "I never get the easy ones, do I..." The fair lady braced herself, ready for them to come chugging along or fire some kind of- WHOA WAIT NO, TOO FAST, STOP!!!

She did NOT expect for something that looks so bulky to be able to rocket forward at that speed! It was a second of panic for her, the fair lady glancing left and right for an escape route only to find that they're pretty much covering up the whole hallway and there's nowhere left to go but back or front or- UP!

With the grace of an acrobat she leaped up and over the charging group of cyborgs! Which would leave them to keep charging ahead and into the wall or something lest they have a way to stop their momentum, but either way, she took the chance and brandished the knife at the wires and tubes on their body, assuming they're vital to keep the cuborg suits up and running for them to use!

"Don't be ignoring them, boss. You'll have to tell them why you had us kill their daddies!" Lucid laughed as if it was a harmless little joke. "Spilled blood and battles are necessary, but are you going to look them in the eyes and tell the kids that it was worth it all?"

Well, of course he could. He had the mettle to handle it. Whether he'd actually take the time to was another question. But that was fine. She didn't care about what he did after the job was complete. New world, status quo, either way there was going to be fun! After some light work, she could get to enjoying herself more. Swish, thwack, two guards with fatal holes in their skulls! With that out of the way, she began dancing around. Oh boy, this was really exciting!

Giggling left and right, she laid into the guards with a detached brutality that only one as ignorant of evil as her could reach. Finger through the eye? Call it a digital vision exam! Oh, she just made a bobblehead out of that one. Hey, didn't people need both carotid and jugular to live? Seems like the answer was definitely yes there. With that done, she dashed off to the so-called containment area. Oh, that'd be nice. Making a dirty bomb and setting it off in the downtown core would do nicely. Ooh, or maybe spread an epidemic? Wait, no. This wasn't the right kind of facility. Chemical weapons would make sense.

Oh, boy. Speaking of weapons, there were some enhanced guards. And going by the presence of those dials, it seemed like they had some chemicals as well. Oh, that reminded her of some of those booster experiments she had seen in the past. Well, except they ended with organs turning to nutritious juice instead of providing a prolonged boost in physical power.

Of course, despite their enhancements, she remembered one important rule.

"Whoo! Having fun there?" She called out to her fellow white haired killer. "Seems like they are 100% human. Let's treat them as such!"

Brains needed something to connect them to the body. These guys were juiced up, but this simple fact would doom them. Cut that and they'd fall like stringless puppets, and then this could be done. Good, good! She could go and catch some shows tonight, it seemed. With an almost practiced movement, she leapt over one, swinging her claw hammer to try and pierce the back of that guard's head with all her strength.

"This is how you pop the top of a tomato juice can!" She laughed.

Abe made the relatively smart move of ducking into a side corridor just as the two power armour wearing guards came a-chargin'. Both however managed to miss their mark. Queen and Lucid had each leapt up and over the bulky brutes, and each brandished a weapon of some variety to strike at vital parts of their enemy's infrastructure - though they were vital for differing reasons. Queen's target was artificial, wiring and tubes that might provide some kind of power to the strange armour that her target wore. Lucid's was biological, the wiring that the human nervous system, connected to the chemical computer that was the brain.
However, neither would meet their mark.

Not because they were inaccurate, but because they were stopped. For whilst true that the guards had failed to hit them, and each crashed into respective walls, all that did was keep one arm occupied for each of them. The others they had each quickly shot out to clutch the metal weapons that tried to do them harm, and would catch either the weapons, or the hands that held them...
"DON'T UNDERESTIMATE US!" And as if in absolute sync, they would try to throw the two mercenary women right at each other, before taking time to rip themselves free of the building that they were meant to be protecting.

It was from there that their approaches differed however, as the woman decided to go after Queen directly, bringing herself to a melee range, but without charging in quite so fast as to be leapt over again. No, she brought herself up, but then stopped herself, so that he was right in front of Queen...
And then began to exchange her like a boxer, quick - inhumanly quick - jabs thrown out aiming for the criminal's head and chest, with the occasional low kick thrown in to try and throw her off her feet. Just one clean shot on its own would be pretty bad...
Especially because this foe would clearly seize on the chance for a pummeling! ...Assuming it was ever that easy.

With Lucid, rather than get in close at a measured pace, as was the case for Queen's opponent, her foe instead chose to stay at range. However, where the fall of the building now somewhat crumbled, was about to become his ammo supply.
"Ha! Hoo! Whoa!" For ripping off parts of the wall, he tosses them like a man would a discus, albeit, a discus of concrete thrown with speeds like it was a baseball. He would only eventually stop when he ran out of immediate wall to use, a gaping hole forming between a corner and a door frame.

And Abe?

Abe snuck off whilst the other two kept things busy.

"Hahaha- Huh?"

Lucid looked down as she was grabbed. Wow, that really was fast. That juice really was boosting those guards up a lot! And then she was tossed into Queen. Hmm. Yeah, that hurt. She landed with a heavy thump, briefly knocked for a loop as the guards split off to do their thing.

One was trying to oppress her co-worker with a barrage of punches and the occasional kick, while the other started chucking chunks of concrete at her. Only a timely roll managed to spare her from the initial strike, although the shrapnel from the projectile's impact peppered her. More ouch!

Okay then, this was going to need some tactical thinking! Lucid picked herself up and moved over, using Queen and the boxing guard as cover as she continued to backpedal. Despite that, she wondered if the throwing guard could ricochet the concrete off the ceiling to get her.

Actually, that'd be super cool! She pointed to the ceiling several times, trying to get the guard to try her suggestion out.

CALLED IT.

Or at least, someone did, but that person was definitely not Queen considering how she was genuinely struck with shock as she was grabbed by one of the cyborg before being walloped hard by her own fellow co-worker! "ARGH!! FUCK THAT HURTS!!" She certainly did not hold back on the cursing to alleviate the throbbing pain on her forehead and part of her face, and the various hurting spots all over her limbs and joints.

She wouldn't have the time or chance to take a breather. Before she knew it one of those cyborg soldiers thing had decided to take her on, one by one, mano-a-mano. She thought it was nice that she was at least given the chance to stand up, but the flurry of assault that came in before she could even blink in surprise- "Uwaah!" -made her take back her words.

CRACK!!!

The survival knife she had instinctively brought in front of her to protect herself snapped into pieces from the sheer force of the cyber-augmented punch that struck it. It was a mistake, she didn't have her relic of a knife and it was terrible to be reminded of the fact at such a critical moment! "S-shit-!" It gave her time to leap back, but only just barely as her assailant continued to rain down on her the flurry of punches and kicks, the first few she decided to actually block ended up with PAINFUL results.

She should have figured it out, those attacks are definitely far beyond what a normal human could muster, even to her eyes, the eyes that were trained to survive in the wild life of criminality, of all people. In the short amount of time the exchanges were entirely one-sided, the fair lady being mercilessly suppressed by the attacks, any attempts to retaliate are hindered by both her opponent's much greater capabilities and her own injuries.

God no she won't be having any rest.

SMASH!!!

A pained yelp escaped her as out of nowhere a block of concrete just suddenly decided to violently crack her skull in half! In that moment of agonizing distraction, one of the attack she had been managing to escape from this whole time slipped past her attention and struck her squarely on her chest! "GAH!!!" Dull sickening cracks could be heard as the punch literally threw her across the hallway and crashing hard against the wall!

The fair lady fell onto the floor in a heap. She coughed up blood and wheezed painfully. Bone shrapnel from her snapped rips tearing up her insides as she decided, out of her sane mind, to get back up to her feet. Or at least, staggering while trying to get off her shaking knees.

How long has it been... She's really losing her touch here...

"Stand still!" The big brute of a guard yell as, indeed, Lucid drew back and out of line from an obvious shot. Worse was that he'd been worked up a bit by initially managing to get her with bits of debris, so now he really wanted to get her. So as Queen's flailing body went flying past, sidestepped by the man in mechanised armour, he took aim, partly inspired by the generously donated direction of choice.
"Eat it!" Then, the concrete slab, the final piece he had available of the wall immediately in range, was thrown. It flew high, and carried by its momentum, the glancing hit against the ceiling, along with gravity, meant it effectively ricocheted off in order to aim downwards at Lucid, who would have that to deal with.

She would however be down one enemy anyway.

You see, tossing a concrete slab into the ceiling above is not a good idea. It weakens the floor, and one might not know whats up there to begin with.
Say, office or lab equipment.
Very heavy office or lab equipment, the kind of which could strain a floor on its own, without any extra assistance.
"Wha-?" The very same kind that could fall through the floor, tearing down much of its surrounding area, and in doing so make worse the amount that ends up falling on a guard just trying to do her job in power armour. Caught by surprise, with a pained groan and a thud, the woman does indeed fall, trapped - if not outright crushed - by a cabinet, desk, and various testing devices for separate serums and circuitry.

Which just left one.

"...S-Sorry!" He clearly couldn't tell if his companion was alive or dead, and decided to take what seemed like less risky an option as he tried to grabbed Queen, and hold her by the neck.
"Come out and drop your weapons, or I kill her!" It would probably be an easy thing for him to do if he wasn't bluffing, with the strange tubes of his suit glowing around his arms. But he wasn't going to be baited by Lucid. Not again.

Abe must've been having the time of his life without having to deal with this.

...Was that an inadvertent save?

That was totally an inadvertent save, wasn't it... God, she's really not sure whether or not Lady Luck is really on her side or isn't. Her moment of relief was irritatingly brief, the time she would have loved to use to take a little break would no sooner than later be interrupted by the other cyborg person marching up to her to take her hostage.

"Che..."

There was a tiny, inaudible metallic click in her pocket.

One would just assume her voice had been constricted by the cyborg of a man wrapping the giant steel hands around her throat, as she was silently lifted off her feet and into the air, unmoving, seemingly having fallen unconscious from her injuries.

He would be very disappointed. "I don't have anything else to drop, she broke my knife. You should also probably realize how expensive this thing is,"

That was Queen's voice alright. However it did not come from the so-called 'hostage' the cyborg man was holding.

The air in front of the cyborg man rippled, as though disrupted by something... transparent. Or was transparent, because in a blink of an eye, the very same woman the cyborg man had been holding 'hostage' materialized into view with a very loud and very distinctive static noise. Messed up as she had been, slightly stained with her own blood and holding herself gingerly to avoid hurting herself even more from her injuries, and lazily waving around in her hand the jagged, broken piece of steel that used to be a knife. "Do you mind not holding me so roughly like that? I prefer to be treated gently,"

She really should stop using the Dead Ringer so willy nilly...

Regardless, without another word the Snow Queen raised the jagged piece of steel over her head before throwing it towards the cyborg man with all her remaining strength-!

"Oh wow, he really did-"

THUNK. CRACK. CRASH.

"They call this a shinbone, right? It's totally cracked." Lucid sat up, poking at her wounded leg. Oh, yes. That was definitely a break. At least one guard was down right now. She looked at the guard who had Queen caught by the neck. Well, that was a situation. Hmm. What to do?

Well, she did need to know something first.

"Wait, my hammer's over there. Do I have to go pick it up first, or should I just stay put?" She pointed at it, then laughed. "And by the way, my friend isn't going to protect you. If you insist on holding her hostage, I think I'll shoot her first just so you can understand that you made a mistake."

Of course, that proved to be unnecessary a few seconds later. Apparently, Queen had a method of escape. Interesting, that.

"Oh, cool! I guess I don't have to pull the shoot everybody gambit after all~" She laughed loudly.

"Kill 'em all, kill 'em all~" She sang, summoning her shotgun as she started firing at the guard.
