Midori Sugimura hung off Yohko Sagisawa as the pair made their way down the street.
Midori was completely shitfaced.
"How can I be a hero of justice if I can't transform?" She slurred. "I yell HENSHIN and SET UP and nothing happens!"
"Yes, it's rather troublesome isn't it…" Yohko said flatly. "Why do you always have to get so wasted?"
"Drunk? I'm not drunk! I'm not allowed to drink! I'm only seventeen!"
"Oi, oi…"
"Nyahahaha!" Midori laughed. Suddenly, a sobering chill ran up her body. She removed her arm from her friend's neck. "… Yohko, go on without me."
"Eh? What are you saying? You can barely walk, how are you supposed to get back?"
"I'll be fine!" Midori said with as much cheer as she could manage. "I just need to go check on something!"
"Ok then…" Yohko moved away hesitantly. "You sure you'll be fine?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine! Go on!" Yohko hesitated again, but finally went on her way. Midori went in the opposite direction. She ducked into a nearby alley, crossed a busy street, and made her way into a nearby building. Once inside, she climbed up the stairs until she arrived at the roof. She walked into the center of the roof and faced the door. She summoned her labrys.
"Alright, I know you've been following me. Show yourself, villain!" Midori declared with a level of fanfare.
He emerged from the shadows: a large man with a rocky face. He walked forward and stood a few feet away from Midori.
"Hey there big guy. You know it's not polite to stalk little girls at night." The man made no reply. "What, no villain speech? No 'This is the end for you, gorgeous, wonderful, fantastic, beauty Midori-sama!'?" The man did not look amused. "You know, some girls may like the strong, silent type, but I don't… Though I must admit you are a good looking old guy." Midori grinned dumbly, her preference for older men shining through. She shook those thoughts out of her head. "What an evil man you are, trying to sway the heart of a young maiden! Prepare yourself!" Midori assumed a combat position.
Neither of them moved. If movies had taught her anything, Midori knew that whoever made the first move would lose.
Golgo must not have seen those movies, as he moved first. He went for what Midori assumed would be a gun. She spun her labrys in front of her. Golgo drew his gun with his usual lightning quickness. He fired, but the spinning Element blocked the bullet. Golgo fired again, but with the same result. Midori charged, her axe still spinning.
"ORAAA!!" She shouted. Golgo fired once more, but the bullet was deflected again. "You're mine!" Midori gripped the labrys with both hands and brought it down. Golgo jumped to the side, avoiding the strike. He went to fire again, but Midori swung her Element horizontally, catching the gun in the barrel. Golgo discarded his half of the gun and jumped back. "Time for the finishing blow!" Midori jumped forward, her labrys raised, turned so she would strike with the blunt side.
When Golgo dodged to the side, Midori found herself leaning over the waist high railing, looking down on the busy city street below.
"Eh?" Was all she could get out before she felt a strong hand on her back. One little push was all it took to send her over the edge. As the sidewalk quickly approached, all Midori could think was 'I'm sorry Professor, I won't be able to hand in my thesis on time…'
And then there were seven.
