So funny thing about this was I originally wrote the part with Anna flipping the guy first. Once I got writers block I decided to leave it as it was since I got my most inspired part done. However, upon looking at some dialogue ideas I had prewritten, inspiration struck again and so I added the top part. This is based on the idea if Knock Out took Anna hostage only for MECH to then attack. Anna has fighting skills she's kept hidden seeing as her training had been 'off the books' for the last 7 years. I apologize for the way it end but, as mentioned, I hit writers block. If I happen to get inspired again to continue I'll update this. For now please enjoy despite how short it is.
"Since when have humans started befriending the Cons? I thought they were enemies." One of the MECH agents commented to the man next to him, loud enough for both Anna and the Con doctor to hear. Both frowned and momentarily looked at each other.
Them? Friends? These humans had to be kidding themselves. Allies maybe but only in this one instant. Once this was all over, there was nothing to stop Knock Out from resuming his original plan to use Anna as a hostage. If they survived this, that is.
"We are far from friends." Anna replied first, her expression continuing to express how unhappy the comment made her. "In fact, I'm only here because you decided to knock him off the road while he was in the middle of trying to kidnap me."
"Trying? The way I remember it I succeeded in capturing you. If it weren't for these vermin you'd be my helpless prisoner by now." Knock Out replied with a flick of his hand, his voice becoming venomous when addressing the MECH agents that attacked him. Anna's 'not helping' side glare was missed as the masked men slightly bulked and looked to one another.
"Whoever this girl is, she has a personal relationship with the aliens. Let's take her back to Silas for questioning." One of the men suggested, his hidden face staring at the young woman suspiciously.
"What about him?" Another agent asked, his gun still pointed at Knock Out. The Con's red optics narrowed coldly at the man and his servo balled into a tight fist.
It pissed him off he couldn't use his saw to slice them in half. It's what they deserved after attacking him. Heck, it's what they deserved after nearly killing Breakdown! Unfortunately, though a Con and while he had little qualm in killing humans, the mess dismemberment would make would be too much for him. He preferred causing car accidents or perhaps giving them a nasty electrical shock. Not to mention that whatever MECH did to him not only shorted out his comm system but also effected his weapons. So, even if he wanted to make an exception for these filthy fleshlings, he couldn't.
"Nothing's changed. Capturing the alien continues as planned." The agent from before answered before looking to the man on his left. "Secure the girl, the rest of us will deal with the Con."
"Yes sir." The agent nodded sharply and lowered his gun. Without another word, he made his way towards the girl, his masked face trained on her own.
"I don't think so." Annabelle growled, casting a venomous glare to the MECH agent that dared try to grab her, and emphasis on 'try.'
Before the tip of the man's fingers had the chance to brush against Anna's arms, her own hand shot out and grabbed his wrist. Without giving him a chance to react she spun herself so her back was pressed against his chest and used her free arm to sharply elbow him in the stomach. The man barely had time to grunt in surprise as he then found himself being flipped over and slammed onto his back in front of the young woman.
The next few seconds were filled with silence, everyone too stunned by what just happened. Even Knock Out just stared at Anna in surprise, having not known she possessed those kind of skills before. He didn't know what impressed him more. The fact she successfully managed to toss a MECH agent like that or that she successfully managed to snag his gun.
In moments the silence quickly evaporated as the remaining agents trained their guns on Annabelle. The one she tossed pushed himself up with a groan and, upon noticing the girl had his gun, decided not to risk grabbing it back and retreated towards the others.
