Choon Hee licked her lips, her mission had been to eliminate the two celestial kits. That a girl who was part kitsune and her pet robot had showed up did little to dissuade her. If anything, it only made the kumiho more anxious for a fight.
"Ren assault mode!"
Choon Hee glanced at the teenage girl who now motioned to her robot. The kumiho raising an eyebrow as the Soul Drive stepped forward. The gynoids forearms and chest now opened, several guns now protruding from its body. Choon Hee smirked as she studied the Soul Drive. "Oh this is going to be alot fun!"
Misaki watched as her Soul Drive now opened fire, the full force of the Yakuza owned gynoid bearing down on the kumiho. Quickly though she noticed the nine tails of the kumiho shield her from harm, the bullets deflecting off the tails harmlessly. Misaki watched the kumiho's eyes light up with malicious intent as Ren paused. "Guess its my turn," Choon Hee grinned.
Misaki couldn't believe the speed of the kumiho as it darted forward. She was going after the kits. Misaki now intercepted, releasing her holy fire as she began to counter attack. "Sachiko, Raiden," she exclaimed. "Get out of here!"
The two kits were petrified, to frightened to move as they watched Misaki now begin to fight. While the teen was quite skilled, they realized this was a fight she could not win.
"You've got some skill kid," Choon Hee said as she dodged yet another attack. "Whoever trained you should be proud." Misaki roared in annoyance, delivering a series of blows to the kumiho. "Still," the kumiho sighed. "I have some work to do so if you'll excuse me."
Choon Hee now lashed out with one of her tails, snaring Misaki by the ankle before viciously slamming her into the ground. Misaki spit up blood, trying to catch her breath as another of the kumihos tails wrapped around her neck. "Come here and give me a kiss," Choon Hee smiled.
Misaki tried to scream as the kumihi now forcefully kissed her. The teen tried to struggle, her body seeming to weaken under the kumihos touch. This thing was draining her energy, her life-force! If she couldn't break free and soon she would be nothing but a lifeless husk.
Ren had seem enough, the Soul Drive charging forward with a guttural scream. Ren now grabbed the kumiho around the throat, squeezing it tightly. Choon Hee choked, releasing her hold and dropping a weakened Misaki to the ground. "Leave her alone," Ren bellowed as she began to attack.
"Seriously," Choon Hee scoffed as the the Soul Drive began to fire at her once again. This thing was annoying, an over protective toy that kept her from savoring the sweet energy of hybrid teen. Choon Hee now recalled her secondary objective. If the celestial kits could not be destroyed then destroy one of the robots that the Catalyst held so dear. "Guess we're going with Plan B," she shrugged.
Misaki was still dazed, her body racked with pain as she tried to focus. Ren was fighting to protect her now, the Yakuza owned Soul Drive showing off the upgrades she had been given. For a moment she felt everything would be okay, but the moment passed far too quickly.
Choon Hee dodged a strike from Ren, ducking underneath the blow before slashing the chassis of the Soul Drive. Misaki winced at the tearing of metal. Ren now tried to bring her forearm weapons down on the kumiho only to watch in horror as Choon Hee tore the arm completely off the Soul Drive.
"No," Misaki moaned weakly. "Stop!"
Choon Hee smiled maliciously, sparks flying from the damaged arm of the Soul Drive. Ren was undeterred, continuing to fight for her master. For her efforts the kumiho tore the other arm off the Soul Drive before tearing a massive hole in Ren's body, effectively dislocating the gynoids hips.
Ren collapsed, still trying to fight as Choon Hee pounced upon her. The kumiho now began to tear through the Soul Drive, pieces of metal flying everywhere as she was torn to pieces. Misaki now forced herself to stand, her body near collapse as she tackled Rens attacker. Releasing a fireball directly into the kumihos face.
"Ren," she screamed. "REN!!!"
Ren turned to her master, the Soul Drives body nearly unrecognizable from the attack. Misaki could see fluids leaking from its body, the light in her eyes dimming as she reached out with the stump that was all that remained of its arm. "Misaki."
The light in Ren's eyes now vanished, the Soul Drive laying lifeless as Misaki wailed over the loss of her protector. Before she could turn to face Ren's murderer she felt the kumihos tail wrap around her neck once more.
"Oh don't worry kid," Choon Hee said mockingly. "You'll be joining her soon."
Before Choon Hee could act the two kitsune children sprang at her. Shocked, the kumiho stumbled backwards, releasing her hold on Misaki. "You won't hurt Misaki," Sachiko yelled.
"You won't hurt anyone ever again," Raiden added, the dark kits eyes glinting red. Choon Hee sighed, shaking her head dismissively as she studied the two kits. "Seriously," she groaned as she prepared to strike. "When will you kids learn."
