(Meanwhile)
Out in the hallways that circled around the main building and its central labs, the employees of Capsule Corp were going about their business as they normally would and performing whatever duties they'd been assigned for the hour. Two staff members in particular, a pair of security guards dressed in blue uniforms with the company logo sewn into their shoulder pads and hats, were presently ambling down the corridor toward the research wing on the far side. With one of the men carrying a cappuccino in his right hand and a magazine under his arm, it was safe to say that he'd just come on duty and was moving to his assigned station.
Engaged in conversation with his colleague, the officers were making good time on their walk through the facility. But then, just as they were about to turn off from their current point, an earth shaking tremor followed by a deafening 'bang' echoed throughout the hallway, the force of which threw both men stumbling forward. Spilling his coffee, the guard on the right slapped his hand against the wall for support and spun around, where he and his stunned partner saw a woman in a black jumpsuit lying underneath the window on the side of the hallway, surrounded by a pile of dry wall.
Shaking her head of the debris and pushing herself to her feet, the blonde woman groaned and looked up, where she saw the gaping hole she'd formed with her body. Needless to say, despite being sent flying through several offices and hallways, she was looking surprisingly chipper.
In fact you could say she was entertained. "Heh. Well now… that was fun."
"Freeze!"
The shout catching Hasky's attention, the woman quickly looked to her left to see two Capsule Corp security personnel pointing their pistols at her; tasers to be exact. When she saw they were both glaring at her and locked into firing stances, the blonde gave them a single look over before turning back to the hole she'd been thrown through.
It was obvious that despite having two firearms pointed in her direction, she wasn't interested in them in the slightest.
Irked that the woman was deliberately ignoring their instruction, the security guard with the bristly beard edged around and gritted his teeth. "Get down on the floor and put your hands behind your head!" Moving further to the front of the offender, the man switched the safety off and held the gun up higher. "Get down on the floor, now!" He added a step forward to his movements, hoping that it would prompt the figure in the jumpsuit into responding. When this failed however and the golden haired intruder failed to budge an inch, the officer glanced back at his friend and shouted, "Okay. Drop her!"
Both men then fired their stun guns at her, hoping to take the woman down in one hit. However, when the pins they launched struck the woman's suit and proceeded to electrocute her, Hasky simply stood in place with barely a twitch. Even though she had over a thousand volts coursing through her body, the blonde remained completely unfazed.
After several seconds of being zapped, the thief's eyes then snapped towards the two security officers, who she saw recoil under her glare.
Freaking out, the pair then dropped their tasers and drew their Berettas. Loading them, both men then proceeded to empty their clips on the woman, only to watch their bullets get disintegrated by an invisible energy field surrounding her body. The projectiles burned up in a series of golden flashes, just an inch above their intended target. When their side arms finally clicked on empty, the security guards lowered said weapons and backed away fearfully.
Grunting at their pitiful attempts to stop her, two tiny spheres of energy appeared to hover on Hasky's left-hand side, before they suddenly shot towards the two men and nailed them in the stomachs. The projectiles knocked them off their feet and sent them tumbling down the corridor, where they both ended up in unconscious heaps on the tiled floor.
"Mongrels," the blonde muttered. As soon as she'd handily dispatched the men, the intruder then looked back towards the hole in the wall, just in time to see her attacker lumber his way into view.
Footsteps stomping along the ground, the man in the black spandex, green armor and boots, knocked away the bits of wall that was blocking his path and forced his way through the gap. As soon as he was in the hallway, Android 16 rose up to full height and, eyes fixing upon his target, began to speak. "Hostile interface identified as Hasky Valentine. Wanted for five extreme counts of suspected breaking and entering, three counts of grand theft auto, eighteen counts of assault, eleven counts of destruction of property, three counts of impersonating an officer…"
Rolling her eyes, Hasky then frowned at her opponent, "Yeah. Sure. Whatever. Are you going to read me my Miranda Rights too or are we going to fight?"
Fast forwarding on his target analysis, Android 16's eyes narrowed and he took another big step forward. "Threat analysis: complete. Suspect assessment: armed and extremely dangerous. Use of deadly force: authorized." Clenching his fists, the large man's body suddenly bulked up, his muscles emitting a loud 'squelching' sound as they expanded widthwise. To accompany this sudden alteration, not only did the cyborg's height increase with his body mass, his armor plating and spandex also thickened when several more sections of armor popped out to cover his more vital areas. Once his transformation was complete, the android's eyes flickered with an array of red numbers. "Energy restrictors: deactivated. Total output set to one hundred percent. Activating primary defense protocols. Now commencing termination of hostile links to Son Gohan."
Blinking in surprise at the android's jolt in size and stature, Hasky grinned broadly, "I stand corrected. You might actually present a challenge to me after all." She then set herself into a fighting stance against her newly modified adversary.
Android 16's frown deepened the moment the lights in his eyes stopped flashing. "Battle mode locked and activated. You're going down, bitch!" Moving faster than the human eye could track the enormous man lunged at the woman and struck down at her with a right overhand, intent on either caving her head in or sending his target through the floor.
However, despite his sudden burst of speed, Android 16 ended up missing when his opponent's form blurred and darted off down the hall to his left. Grunting irritably, the giant cyborg gave chase, rushing after the blonde as she skidded to a stop several doors down the strip. As soon as Hasky stopped, the woman thrust her hand forward and fired a golden blast towards the android in an effort to blow a hole through his chassis. She then recoiled in shock when she saw her target plow through the attack effortlessly, a split second before he rammed his shoulder into her. The blow sent Hasky flying further down the corridor like she'd just been hit by a train.
Stumbling when her foot touched ground, the blonde then threw her arms up in alarm and took the haymaker her deceitfully quick opponent slammed into her. Deafening claps of cannon fire rang throughout the facility when Android 16 began nailing her with punch after punch, before ending his assault with a powerful front kick straight into the woman's solar plexus. This kick sent Hasky bouncing off of the side wall and to the floor, which she ended up lying face down on before pushing herself up. Shaking her head of the daze, the seemingly winded woman then looked in the direction of her foe with an excited grin in play.
"Interesting." She then frowned when she saw the armored warrior come thundering towards her, yelling out as he skidded to a stop directly in front of her position and chucked a left hook down at his target.
In a shocking display of movement and acrobatic ability, Hasky spun her legs in a windmill motion on the floor and, while avoiding the man's downward punch, simultaneously kicked him in the face. The blow slammed across the android's cheeks, sending spit flying out of his mouth, before the woman back flipped to her feet and assumed a fighting stance. After the red haired android stumbled to a stop, he then lunged forward with a right hook, only for his opponent to duck and land three consecutive body shots. The blows however bounced off of the cyborg's thick abdominals and armor, allowing Android 16 to throw a left uppercut at the assassin. Hasky managed to slip around the punch and, jumping up at the hulking robot, nailed him with a right cross.
The fist slammed into his face. But just when it seemed like she'd hurt him, the robot suddenly grabbed her arm with both hands, spun her, and smashed her into the side wall. Holding onto her as he plowed her through the plasterboard, unintentionally punching a new doorway to the lab, Android 16 then dragged her out of the wall and chucked her back down the corridor from whence they'd come.
Tucking her body up and spinning through the air to control her flight, Hasky quickly recovered from the toss and landed safely on her own two feet, sliding along the tiles to a stop. As soon as she did, the woman then glared ahead of her to see her opponent in a full on charge, his fists primed and ready to go. Not wishing to be pummeled into the floor, the blonde woman then smirked, which prompted the red lines on her suit to flash brightly. When they did, the assassin suddenly darted forward in a blur of movement, much faster than Android 16 was anticipating. He quickly received a front kick to the stomach, stopping his approach dead. After staggering away, he then swung at the woman with an uppercut, nailing her in the chin with a concussive blow.
However, despite seemingly knocking the woman off her feet, he suddenly saw Hasky's form flicker before vanishing, revealing itself to be a hologram. Caught completely off guard, the android was unable to respond in time when the real assassin slipped around him, wrapped her arms around his waist, and suplexed the giant of a robot into the floor behind them. The cyborg's impact with the floor head first was marked by a deafening artillery blast as an enormous crater was punched into the tiles, rattling the building, splintering the corridor and shattering every window in their area.
The two security guards watching nearby had to brace themselves to stop from being thrown about the hallway.
Almost instantly after putting the android on his back, Hasky flipped onto his chest like an acrobat and pinned his limbs to the floor. She then leered down at the stunned Sixteen like a cat, meeting his glare head on, before raising her right hand over her head. "You got in some good hits, big boy." A cloud of golden photons then formed above her, all of which came together and solidified into a gold Spartan sword. As soon as her fingers wrapped around it, the assassin took aim and grinned. "But I'm afraid your time is up."
Android 16 frowned, "Not while I'm still functioning."
"Whatever you say." Smirking, the woman then drew back and prepared to stab the android through the head. But just as she was swinging down, Hasky was unexpectedly kicked in the face and sent rocketing down the hallway, losing her weapon in the process. Bouncing across the floor and back onto her feet, the blonde skidded to a halt and looked up with a start, where she saw Videl standing in front of the downed Android 16 at his defense.
