Hansel & Gretel (5/6)
The police showed up, and with that came questions. Questions that the twins weren't necessarily prepared to answer. Gretel lied, and said that they were just watching a movie. Hansel, on the other hand, stayed silent. Upon pushing further, they would learn the truth as Hansel wasn't as good a liar as Gretel was. He would tell them of the body that was dragged into the woods, and the rifle that was used. He covered up the fact Gretel was the one to shoot the man however, and said it was all his idea, as he was tired of the man abusing them. Gretel didn't want Hansel to go away for her actions, so she would later admit to killing the man. As they weren't sure which of the kids to believed, they were both brought in to juvenile court.

The bullet soars through the air, but of course, there's a forcefield protecting Big Time. The crowd goes into a panic, and the Archon team works on evacuating the building. It's then, that the ground starts to shake beneath them.
"I'll go after the sniper. After all, it's me they want dead. They're really going to regret this." Big Time says, as she locomotive jumps towards the building. Within a few jumps, she's almost within range. Disassembling the sniper rifle, I pull out my signature rifle, the one I used for my very first kill all those years ago. Loading it with bean bag rounds, I get ready for the fight ahead. Almost a minute later, Big Time smashes through the window.
"I'm not sure what your beef is with me, or who hired you. Either way, bring it on." She taunts, as Hansel shoots a smoke arrow, allowing for me to get a bean bag shot at her ribcage. Stumbling back, she uses her grappling gun to yank the rifle from my hands, before throwing it across the room. Pulling out a baton from her back holster, she runs towards Hansel, nimbly avoiding each shot he takes. They exchanges blows, with various punches and kicks mixed together. As I reach for my gun, Big Time throws her baton at my hand, before rolling over to the stove. Grabbing a frying pan, she hits Hansel in the back. Hansel grunts in pain, but he's able to grab her cape, and throw her into the kitchen table, it breaking upon impact. This doesn't too to much to dissuade her though, as she gets up rather quickly, throwing discs, which explode right in front of me. Such a confined space, it's hard to effectively use our trademarked weapons.
"Really, this is nothing personal. Strictly business. Or maybe it is a little personal too." My brother coughs, as he regains his composure. I try tackling her, but she simply sidesteps out of the way, and as I fall down, she drops a pellet, which encases the lower half of my body in ice. Hansel quickly shoots a fire arrow, which melts it rather fast. It already feels like this fight has dragged on for hours, even though it's maybe been a couple of minute, as all of us are sweating profusely. My ears start ringing, as a flashbang goes off.
"Just give up already!" She yells, her voice echoing in my ears.
"Ow, ow, ow!" I groan, as she keeps on pummeling me. But it's moments later, that it all stops. Once my vision finally clears, there she was, Big Time, shot through the heart, a pool of blood, forming on the ground. I look to my brother, and he, of course, has his bow drawn.
"Yeah, I know we were supposed to bring her in alive. One wrong blow, and you would've been crippled for life, or dead. I'm sorry, but I'll always prioritize you and your health over this job sis. I'm supposed to be the one to protect you after all, I'm older."
"By like a minute, so it hardly even counts!"
"A minute's still a minute!" Hansel says with a laugh, as he starts packing up our gear.
"Guess this means we aren't getting paid." I say with a frown, as we leave the crime scene.
"Well, there's always next time!" My brother says, trying to cheer me up, but I can blatantly see that he's worried.
"Yeah.. We better get going." I say, slinging the bag over my shoulder.
"Agreed." Hansel nods, and with that, we leave.
