I do not own RWBY.
Red's pov
Back at Blake's office the crime boss had told Red that she wanted Weiss Schnee's bodyguard, assassinated because he was also selling weapons cheap, taking some of her revenue. So red was scouting the Schnee manor.
It had amazing security, four guards posted at the front gates and one posted at ten foot intervals around the perimeter, all heavily armed. They also had Turrets! Actual Turrets! They looked to be top of the line Atlassian model 144s, which use 180 caliber piercing nuclear rounds. They could take down a couple tanks in one shot, and with a fire rate of 5 shots per second they were generally used for breaking into high security bunkers, but even then they were overkill.
I can't let those fire. Assuming I don't get hit and stay out of the blast radius it will draw everyone in the entire manor here.
Red used her semblance to jump from the tree she was in to behind the first turret. She slowly walked around it to stay out of sight of the other turrets and when the coast was clear she used crescent rose to cut open the base of the turret to get at the wiring. After a second she realized what she was looking at. It was the way a bomb was set up. Oh great now I have to defuse a bomb. Luckily she did know how to do that and did so just in time to get out of the way of the camera that was about to be pointed straight at her. She then deactivated each of the other turrets each of which was consecutively easier as there were less and less active turrets sweeping the area.
When she had finally finished the grueling task she dropped down through the skylight which contrary to popular media did have plenty of security on it, but regardless it was still the best way to enter.
The inside of the manor had little security. They probably thought no one would get this far. Although anyone that could get past what's outside could also get past whatever you might put inside. I certainly could. Red stealthily moved towards Weiss Schnee's bedroom, the best place for a bodyguard to be.
Red readied Crescent Rose before she opened the door to Weiss' room. Weiss wasn't in the room. She was most likely in the shower going by the sound, but her attention was more focused on the man about to shoot her. She lunged forward and to the left, ducking behind a couch. She got up quickly and shot at her target, who dogged, managing to only get a graze on his upper arm. The bullet had gone through the door leading to where Weiss was. If she was dead that would be unfortunate, she could have gotten paid a lot to kill her. The man began unloading his pistol in her direction, but she unfurled her sweetheart and deflected the deadly projectiles. She jumped up, over the couch, beginning to swing her scythe in a large arc, which would have cut him in half had he not tried to block with his gun, throwing off her aim a little. Instead of cutting him in half she bisected his head, the cut going straight through one of his eyes, a sight she found slightly amusing.
"Wow. That was pretty impressive." Red froze. Well at least I haven't killed the girl. Red turned around slowly twisting her scythe so that the barrel was pointed at the heiress. "You don't need to be worried about me calling the guards, if your only intension was to kill him which I've heard it is and is further supported, by the fact that I'm still alive."
"You do realize I just killed the person whose job it is to protect you, right?"
"He was a douchebag and incompetent. I'm glad he's dead." Wow this girl's a bitch, "You on the other hand are extraordinarily competent and I am willing to pay 500,000 lien per week for your services." a bitch that could be useful to me. She's offering exactly the same amount as Blake, so it's not worth double crossing her, but if I could work for both I could double my profits. I'd just have to keep both in the dark about the situation.
"I'm rather busy."
"I'd give you a job; you'd do it when it's convenient for you." This is too easy, Red thought to herself, internally grinning.
"Okay, what did you have in mind?" I hope it's not assassination of White Fang members. That could be tricky given the fact Blake probably doesn't trust me very much yet and would guess I had something to do with it.
"I could use the designs for the newest scrolls from Plum Inc." She's giving me a test run, to make sure my reputation is genuine and I'm not going to quit at the first opportunity. Not bad.
"That won't take long at all."
Red made her way back towards her point of entry and encountered a group of nineteen guards running towards her new employer's room. That's pathetic those gunshot went off like two minutes ago. I could have killed Weiss and been long gone by now. Presently, Red open fired at the guards killing six before any of them got a shot off. As finally began to return fire she used her semblance to dodge between the poorly aimed bullets and decapitate another four personnel with her now fully extended blade. I wonder if this will anger Weiss, Red pondered idly as she pulled her weapon back, simultaneously bisecting someone's head and impaling another man with the rear of her scythe.
One of the younger guards brought his gun up to her face. She twisted her beloved weapon around and extending it to pierce a rather attractive woman's kidneys, lungs, and liver and bringing up her foot to crack the young guard's sternum, but waited just long enough so that he would shoot. Her foot crashed into his chest, sending his into a couple of other men and shattering his ribs in such a way that they would sever his trachea, while this was happening she had leant back to let the bullet whistle over her and into someone's head. She turned her back bend into a flip and brought Crescent rose around and disemboweled two more women. She then turned to the final two people who were preoccupied with the flailing's of the man whose trachea she had severed. They both died with a bullet to the head.
The girl quickly climbed back up to the skylight before anymore guards could bother her.
Tell me what you think of the fight scene. Was it good? Bad? Too long? Any other reviews are also greatly appreciated.
