A Goddess Candidate and an Underling
Summary: Linda was no one special, an orphan who was born in the slums, grew up to be a thug. Linda was an underling, she would do anything so long as it paid well. If saving a Goddess Candidate would get her rich for life, why not?
"We will be teleporting you to a fortified place close to your target now. I will you best of luck."
-Brunette girl
Linda was no stranger to scams. In fact, thanks to her shapeshifting skill she was quite an accomplished scammer (if she would say so herself). She just had to take the face of a credible (and short) brunette merchant with giant white bunny cap and sell ASIC products in her name. That merchant's fame (notoriety) went up, the buyers were happy (until their consoles got infected) and Linda earned herself 'honest' money.
Even as a scammer, Linda has standards. She wouldn't stoop so low as to trick someone into physical danger.
That meant she has the moral high ground here. So it should be perfectly okay for her to swear bloody vengeance on that brunette girl called IF for sending her to this goddess forsaken place!
One moment she had been inside Planeptune's basilicom, the next the floor under her lit up and she found herself in a scrap yard. Mountains of obsolete pieces of broken technologies surrounded her and the sky was dark red (as if that wasn't enough to tell how her how screwed up she was). The scenery combined with the oppressive thunderstorms looming over her, she had seen enough pictures from the internet to know where this place was.
Oh she was pretty sure she would end up here one day, definitely not while she was alive.
That's right, she was now in the last place any sane person would want to be on Gamindustri, the Gamindustri Graveyard.
Or in simpler terms: Hell.
"A fortified place my ass! What in the hell am I supposed to do here!?"
The graveyard responded with her own echo. Linda was not amused.
Fine then, it's too lame to turn back now anyway! I will save those stupid targets and get rich! Just you wait IF, when I am done with this you're next!
The Underling pulled her hood over herself and trenched forward with her trusty iron pipe in her grip. By her name Linda she would accomplish this one last mission and get out of this dangerous life. With a million credits she would buy a nice comfortable apartment far away from the slums and look up on getting a safer job. Maybe she could be a guild agent. She was pretty confident in her shapeshifting and espionage skills.
That's right, her set of stealth skills. Whatever her enemies in hell maybe, she just has to sneak in, save the people and get out. No one would ever know she has been here at all.
A loud stomp trembled the ground and killed her plan. Someone(?) had landed right before her (so much for sneaking in). Trying to see who stopped her, Linda looked up.
And up.
"Look what have I found, a rat who screamed out her position. I must be in luck! Prepare to be destroyed!"
Wild seven meter tall giant robot with a nasty looking axe appeared!
Go! Linda!
