A/N: This is a teaser for a project I've been thinking about lately. Please note that minor details are subject to change and nothing is finalized. Please leave a review telling me what you think and if you have any questions I'll try my best to answer them.
"I am not a good person."
"No, I used to be, but now... if I'm a good person I'm already dead."
The city of Vale glowed like a neon sign as the sounds of sirens echoed throughout the sky. Blue and red lights raced towards a movie theater in downtown Vale. They deployed and a SWAT team readied to breach the building. The patches on their arms read CCAS and their rifles were outfitted with rounds that could go through Aura barriers. Inside were some three hundred hostages all taken by a terrorist organization. However, what they failed to notice was a dark figure standing atop the theater; her face half covered by a mask made of the upper and lower jaw bone of a human skull. Her form was covered by a jet black toggle coat and in one, solid, unflinching, motion jumped off the top of the roof. She landed behind the SWAT team, cracking the asphalt beneath her.
"Behind us!" The commander yelled.
Just like that every gun was pointed at the female figure.
"In the extermination I lost my mother…"
The figure drew a Katana style sword, out of the sheath on her belt and just as the order to fire was given she jumped into the air; the bullets whizzing around her as her body spun. She landed in front of the first SWAT soldier and cut his arms off before knocking him out.
"My Father…"
She then jumped into the next soldier and held him behind her as his own teammates shot him; his body armor stopping the rounds. The figure then turned him around and cracked him in the face knocking him to the ground unconscious. Moving on to the next she cut his leg off whilst blocking bullets with her sword; and finished him off by curb stomping him, her boot knocking out a tooth.
" and my sister."
The police started to get a better shot at her and quickly surrounded her; but she was not the only one in this battle. Explosions rocked the police line as somewhere in the distance a grenade launcher was shot at them. Asphalt and body parts flew as two officers with electric batons rushed the girl. She responded by sheathing her katana and grabbing the first ones dominate arm, whilst kicking the baton out of the other one's hand. She kicked the now defenseless one away from her and focused on the one that was still armed. She swept his leg out from under him and grabbed his arm to taze him as he fell. The baton only did half the job and the girl suddenly had her hair grabbed by him.
"Now all I have left is a thirst; a thirst for the justice my life was robbed of."
He bent her head back and threw her away from him, but it didn't faze her as she doubled back and kicked him square in the kneecap; shattering it like glass. The officer howled as he fell and was quickly met by a boot to the forehead knocking him out as well. Seeing his teammate incapacitated urged the other officer forward and soon enough he ran at the girl; the baton crackling as the dust from the explosions hit the electrified tip.
"You aura sensitive, bitch!" He yelled; as he raised his arm above his head.
The shorter girl just stared at him her silver eyes clouded as the dust rolled around them like ghost. His arm came down and bounced off an invisible wall in front in front of her. She drew her sword and cut off his hand, the baton falling into a pool of blood.
He collapsed to his knees, "Why? Why do you people do this? Do lives mean nothing to you? You should all just die!"
The next thing he heard was a very robotic inhale as the girl began to speak, "My family's lives meant nothing to you during the extermination; so why would I care about yours?"
The man started to laugh as he sobbed; which drowned out the sound of footsteps approaching from behind him. In one motion his head was cut in half by a hand, that belonged to another woman whose eyes were covered by a black mask that went all the way to her nose.
"There was only one way to get that justice in a world that branded you as a monster… Become a monster."
She looked towards the girl her body covered by a long, grim reaper's, cloak and her lime green hair went down to her waist. She turned to the girl; her eyes completely hidden.
"Get going, Red. We've caused enough damage." She said; her voice monotone, but the faintest laugh could be heard when it came the word damage.
The girl nodded and disappeared into the dust; rose petals left on the ground.
"I am not a good person; but I do try. Look at me, I've been talking to you this whole time and I haven't even told you my name."
The girl stood atop a nearby building and removed her mask. This brought silver eyes into full view and made red tipped hair blow wildly in the wind. Below sat the bodies of over one hundred policemen; who went to save hostages, but instead stepped into a trap.
"My name is Ruby Rose, and I am… a 'terrorist'."
