With a loud thwack followed by a crunch Retsu's fist impacted the first goon's face before any of them even realized she was there."Look, I get it. Apps are unreliable. Map says you're in one place but it turns out you're a few streets over. I ain't gonna blame ya. Just scram and get back to wherever the fook you rat bastards came from."To Retsu's surprise -truly- they didn't end up taking her warning. Really, who'd have thought five gangsters wouldn't take the advice of a single unarmed looking woman. 'Ah well,' she shrugged. Can't win 'em all. With a wide grin she stepped out of an incoming blow's range and promptly socked the off-balance wanna-be boxer in the jaw. The way he folded reminded her of a croissant. Somehow that infuriated her even more."Come now, three on one. Ain't those some unfair odds?" Retsu laughed looking at her remaining opponents. "Shoulda brought at least ten."Despite her confidence the street they were on was a bit too wide for her liking. Something the rival gang members didn't fail to take advantage of. As a knife grazed her shoulder she couldn't help but click her tongue. It always looked so nicely choreographed in fiction. When one faced many they all came one after the other leaving plenty of time to block and counter. Her experience was a bit different. Surrounded on three sides, whenever she fended off one opponent another would make use of the opening to hit her. Even though pain was starting to sprout all throughout her body so was something else. Adrenaline. She let out a hoarse breath while shoulder checking one of the three and using the opening to slip through the encirclement. The wet feeling on her back combined with the smug smile of the guy holding the knife let her know she hadn't escaped unscathed."Well, y'all are a bit better than I thought. Congratu-fookin-lations. That ain't good for y'all."With that she drew her combat knife from its sheath on her lower back and used the ring to spin it into a forward grip. Seeing the trio suddenly being a lot more cautious she couldn't help but laugh as she jumped back into the fray. A feint thrust towards the first making him step back before she twisted her upper body and slashed at another guy's chest. "Tsk. A bulletproof vest? Really?" Seeing her smile blossom into an open mouthed Cheshire grin the gangsters couldn't help but feel like something's wrong. Unfortunately for them Retsu's not in the mood to give them the time to think. First she rushed at the knife-wielding prick, twisting with his instinctive cut to make sure his weapon doesn't cut all that deep before she rams the back of her own weapon into his windpipe, crushing it and sending him to the ground coughing and sputtering. For the second one she threw her knife into his foot and used the moment his eyes followed the throw's path to punch him in the jaw, promptly knocking him out as well. Staring her final opponent in the eye she pulls a cylindrical object out of one of her pants' pockets.
"D'ya know what this is, big guy?"
"Wha-" "That's right. A concussion grenade. Low yield of course and not nearly as deadly as a fragmentation grenade. Unless..."
With a burst of speed she snapped off the ring, closed in on him, pulled on the collar of his bulletproof vest and shoved the grenade into the gap. "...they're in an enclosed area."
With a grin she wrapped her arms around him and hooked her hands together behind his back, ignoring the flurry of desperate blows he rained down on her head. "Let go you-" Any further complaints are cut off by the explosion, the crack of several of his ribs giving out under the force of the blast barely audible as the two are sent flying in opposite directions. Retsu groaned and decided to refrain from trying to stand back up until her vision stops spinning. "Urgh. Gonna be feeling that one for a while."

Another day of being Rui was another day to terrorize the general populace of Tokyo! Roaming the streets as a villain by the name of Mummy, Rui could be described as a somewhat benevolent and malicious entity. On one hand, she healed the people she came across, sometimes free of charge. On the other, sometimes she charged people absurd amounts of money after the fact, sometimes enough to send them spiraling into debt. Occasionally she also just sat and watched as people died or getting life altering injuries from getting into dumb little fights with each other. She had been watching one such altercation about halfway into the fight. She didn't know the full context, but there was something about this woman that she liked. Maybe it was the way she moved and fought, or just the fact that she was insane enough to take on multiple guys and put it all on the line, instead of running to live another day. She grinned as the fight seemed to come to a close, hopping down from the roof she had been perched on. ''Oh my gosh it totes looks like it bestie! Lemme have a look!'' She smiled as she came running over to Retsu like they had known each other since kindergarten. Leaning in close, Rui pressed her face up to Retsu's, her big eyes looking her over. ''Lemme ask you something bestie, try to answer me honestly, because I totes care about honesty! Do you fear death?'' She smiled mischievously. Bakiri Retsu

Retsu's vision swam and her eye refused to focus. Even so she could see a shape getting larger and larger. A concerning sight given that she was laying down and just barely conscious enough to figure out that meant something -or someone- was either falling or dropping down close to her. Either way, she'd bet good money on it being a problem. 'Move.'Yet no matter how much she urged her bruised and battered body it refused to respond the way she wanted it to. Muted and distorted she realizes something's making noise. Someone? Someone. Eventually the sound made its way through the fog in her head and regained meaning, morphing into words she could just barely make out amidst the ringing in her ears as the shape drew closer and closer. Far too slowly for her liking Retsu's sight finally regained a modicum of its usefulness and she did not like what she saw. Robes like that, horns on top of her head and an entirely unfitting smile lighting up her face. Yeah, she thought. No way that could be good. Her mind raced -albeit walked might have been a better way of putting it with how much difficulty she was having putting even a single coherent thought together- as she considered her options. Whoever's approaching is bound to be one of those quirk tossing loonies. Outfit's a dead give-away. The horns are what give her pause however hoping she's wrong. Then again there's no way some random punks could get one of them to come after her, right? She clicked her tongue. This whole affair stank. Seeing the interloper's tattooed face up close Retsu realized the time for thinking was over and that she'd have to improvise. She let out a hoarse groan to clear her throat. "Death? Argh, before that, d'ya got a light?" Clenching and unclenching her fingers to regain control of her arm she reached into a longer pocket halfway down her thigh and motioned as if to take out a pack of smokes. Sucking in air through her teeth and ignoring the flash of pain every move sends shooting through her she looked Rui right in the eye."Do I fear death?" She replied with a wide smile as her fingers managed to unclasp the strap inside of her pocket keeping her airsoft pistol secured to her leg. With the same move she rolled her shoulder, drawing the weapon and raising it up so the barrel is mere millimeters from the side of Rui's head. "Do you?"------ Rui Matsui

''A light?'' She blinked her eyes before instinctively patting one of her many pockets. ''Sure, lemme just loooook around! ~ I'm carryin' totes loads of stuff on me!'' Whether it was the intent or not, asking for a light was the perfect way to distract Rui. She was a smoker herself, so she understood the need to smoke one when it came up, even as you were lying on the street and slowly bleeding out. ''There it is!'' She grinned, turning to look back at Retsu, expecting her to take out a pack of smokes just like the mercenary had intended. ''Me?'' She froze when the gun was pressed up to the side of her head. She didn't get a good look at it so for all intents and purposes Rui thought it was a real one. Retsu turning the question on her made her break into hysterics, laughing like the eye-patched woman had just told her the world's funniest joke. ''Bestie! You're really something else!'' She managed to squeeze out, before even more laughing drowned out any chance of her expressing words. Heaving for air, Rui would finally settle down a bit, tears in her eyes from laughing as she looked down at Retsu. ''Course I do bestie!! I'm fucking terrified of death!'' She giggled, wiping away the tears with her finger before letting out a big, relieved sigh. ''You're funny! I'm gonna fix you up free of charge once you've answered my question.'' She turned her head to look over at the gun. ''If you wanna shoot me first go ahead, but don't make it hurt bestie. I don't like when it hurts.''Bakiri Retsu

Of all the responses she could've gotten, hysterical laughter is not the one Retsu had been banking on. Clenching her teeth to bear the pain she kept a close eye on the woman's abnormal reactions. She'd seen types like this before. Smiling and laughing one moment and the next someone's head has a hole in it. She'd rather not suffer a fate like that. Her clenched teeth form into a grin that's more snarl than smile. That answered the question then, didn't it? "Can't say I've thought about it before." Retsu began and let her arm drop again. "Time spend thinking of grim shit like that is better for other things if ya ask me. If I had to say then I guess..."Her upper lip curled in disgust. Normally she wouldn't so much as consider answering Rui's question. She'd have to be a complete and utter fool however to know so little about her surroundings that she wouldn't have heard the rumors. Now that her brain's slowly beginning to put itself back together again she's got a pretty good idea of who exactly's in front of her. The Twilight Witch Doctor. Given her current state refusing that one simple question would be the same as rolling over and letting herself bleed out and that's not the way she intends to go."...not in the slightest!" A manic gleam lit up in her eye and her smile stretched even further. "We're all gonna fookin' die someday. Ain't a single person that's managed to stop that. It's the one damn equalizer in this messed up world. Hero or villain, quirkless or not, rich or poor. End of your life you're going the hell down. Me though?"With the doctor's attention taken up by her gun and the words spilling from her mouth she'd be willing to bet the slow movement of her other arm goes unnoticed. With a laugh she pulled a frag grenade out of another pocket and put her thumb in the ring."When my time comes I'm gonna go out with a bang!"------

''Riiight? It's such a big question you know. And with how busy life is out here I totes get why you wouldn't have time to think about it.'' She shrugged, carefree as can be. Her eyes widened upon seeing Retsu's manic gleam, before smiling right back at the woman, letting out a cackle as she pulled the frag grenade out. ''You're insane bestie! What an answer!'' With that, the skin on Rui's arm began to unravel itself. However, no blood or guts spilled from her arm, as Rui had none. Only her skeletal hand and forearm would be left exposed as Rui's skin wrapped around one of Retsu's arms. Soon pulses of warm healing energy would hum and and spread through Retsu's arm to her entire body. In many ways it would feel like being enveloped by an invisible blanket. In almost record time, Rui would have healed all of Retsu's injuries, even down to random joint pains or soreness that wasn't directly related to her recent wounds. ''There she is! She's the one that has been attacking our guys!'' Another team of five armed men showed up, pointing at Rui and Retsu. Judging from their reactions they were probably here for Retsu. ''New plan,'' Rui said, looking up at the guys. ''Show me how you fight again and I won't charge you my doctoring fees.'' She pointed at the five guys, keeping her index finger pointed at them as she turned to look back at Retsu. ''I'm Mummy, by the way.'' She finally stood up at her menacing 4'9 tall, placing both hands on her hips. ''Who's the other one?''''Who cares! Prolly an accomplice, best to kill her too.'' One of the men said as he took aim and fired five bullets into Rui, the mummy villain staggering back with each bullet that sunk into her. However, rather than fall over, all the bullet wounds healed as Rui smiled back at their armed opponents. ''Gimme that!'' She laughed, unwrapping the skin on her arm and throwing it forward like a rope to latch onto his gun. ''H-Hey let go!'' She wasn't strong enough to yank it from his hands then and there, but it would definitely keep him from shooting her new bestie. ''What are you waiting for? Kill the other one!'' The guy with the gun called out, two of his goons brandishing knives as they rushed towards Retsu. Bakiri Retsu

Retsu's eye widened when part of the blonde's form turned into strips not unlike bandages. 'Quirk users,' She thought. 'Freaks, every last one of em.' While her opinion didn't change, feeling the pain vanish and her body once more be able to move properly before she knows it she certainly felt a lot more positively about the horned girl.
At the mention of payment Retsu scoffed. The gesture didn't have any heat in it however. In her opinion people that helped others without asking anything for it were either up to something or arrogant pricks looking to feel good about their own superiority. She trusted selfishness way more. "Bakuretsu. Now I'd just love to stay and chat but it seems like someone else needs my attention."She smirked while standing up and patting her new ally on the shoulder. Of course just as she was starting to like her the blonde took three to the chest. She shrugged. 'Ah well.' When Rui didn't even blink at the 'inconvenience' and simply decided to take the weapon for herself Retsu couldn't help but bark out a laugh.
"Y'all reeaaaally fucked up bringing out the guns. Escalating like that? Gloves are off now, kiddos."She called out and pulled the pin on her second frag grenade of the day. Tossing it up and down she watched the two coming her way suddenly slow down. Her grin widened so far it hurt her cheeks. She caught the grenade and tossed it in between them while running, the explosive aimed towards the other two standing further back to take them down before they could cut their boss free. Not missing the moment their eyes followed its path she slapped a knife aside and drove her elbow into its wielder's windpipe. Not even waiting for the man to drop she rushed past and grabbed the second by the shoulder as she went, pulling him with her and spinning around so he ended up between her and the explosion. Not that they were within the pitifully small blast radius these things had but she wasn't taking any more chances today.Making sure she struck again before the ringing in their ears died down she wrangled one arm behind the man's back and used her other one to push him forward. With her improvised meat shield in front of the gun she barreled towards the final obstacle. She flinched briefly at the sound when the impact between him and his boss made the gun go off and add a new piercing to his gut. Even so she didn't let it stop her, waiting for them to drop before she stomped the leader's head into the asphalt. With a wide grin she looked back at her compatriot."Enjoy the show?" Her eyes briefly flicked over each of the fallen attackers in turn to make sure they stayed down before she pulled out her phone. "Think I know where these came from. What d'ya say, wanna score a front row seat when the rest of 'em get evicted from Tokyo?"------

''Yeah, yeah! Do that thing Bakubestie!'' She grinned, pointing at the guys as if she was trying to order Bakuretsu to rough them up. Once the crazy bomb lady got to work, Rui would eventually let go of the gun she was trying to grab so that she could put two fingers in her ears to lessen the sound of the bomb going off. All the while she was watching with a big grin on her face, clapping her hands together like a giddy child when Bakuretsu turned to face her. ''Totes enjoyed it! What a show!'' She skipped on over and scooped the gun off the ground, pressing the barrel all the way up to her eye as she stared down it, trying to figure out which end the bullets came out of. ''For real, for real?? There's more?'' She was still preoccupied with staring at the gun, but quickly tossed it aside. ''Is it a soft seat, lead the way, Bakubestie!''Bakiri Retsu
