(House of Evolution)

“So this is the place Chrysalis was talking about?” Kaoru asked pointing at the giant building.

“Correct.” One of the soldiers said.

“Be advised, multiple hostile are sighted inside the building proceed with caution.”

“Let me try something.” Kaoru said as she simply walked up to the building, and knocked on the door. “Hello! Anybody home?!”

“I don’t think they want to answer ma’am.”

“Worth a shot.” Kaoru said as she knock the door down by force. “Guess we’ll have to go in by force. You guys survey the area, but I want two of you to come with me incase something happens.”

“Yes ma’am.”

“Alrighty then, let’s do some exploring.” Kaoru said as she and two soldiers enter into the building. As they entered into the build, the camera that was outside on the side began to scan the girl and the ponies.

“Hm….interesting. Maybe this one might be useful to test something out for me.”

(Inside)

“Man look at this place! It looks like something that you would see in a sci-fi movie or something.” Kaoru said as she looked around the room. “Whoever works here must be working on some kind of weapon or something.”

“Its pretty obvious ma'am.” The soldier on her left said.

“Really? What gave it away?” Kaoru asked sarcastically. “Was it because of the fucking test tube in the room? Or was because of the organs on the tables?”

“No...​it's that cannon standing behind you.” He said.

“....​Nopony likes a smartass….what are your names anyway?”

“Kreig.”

“Smoke.”

“Okay Kreig and Smoke. Nopony likes a smartass.”

“Understood.” Krieg said and placed several C4s in the room.

[I wouldn’t do that if I was you.] said a mysterious voice over the speakers in the room. [Not like using C4 will do anything.]

Smoke looked at every single speakers in the room and shot it with his Benelli M4 Shotgun.

[Well someone’s trigger happy. Then again it comes to no surprise when you low intelegent pony.]

Both Soldiers saw a camera at the other side of the room.

“We have no time with your pathetic talks weakling.” Krieg said. “You better escape while you have the chance.”

[Like I’m afraid of a bunch of trigger happy ponies. This is my home, the house of evolution. You think you can threaten me in my domine?”

“Yes...​because the one who takes risk wins.” A distorted voice spoke.

The rest turned around and see Death Gun behind them.

[Oh? And who might you be?]

“Oh me, I go by many names…I'm very sure you saw my broadcast.” Death Gun said.

[Not really, I been busy working on the ultimate weapon to even care who you are.]

“The weapon which you work so hard on that controls Mosquitoes that carry deadly diseases. Oh and there are others more I know you're building.” Death Gun said.

[Who said she was my ultimate weapon of evolution?] Just as he said that, the floor that they were standing began to elevate down. [She was just a prototype to test out certain features for my latest creation.]

“Looks like I'm gonna need to endure this pathetic weakling talks.” Krieg said.

“Agreed.” Smoke said.

[Big talk coming from a human. Let’s see how confident you are when you face off against Carnage Kabuto.] Moments later the four found themselves in a large white room as they reach the floor. Standing in the room was humanoid like beetle staring at them with murderous intent.

“So you’re the ones that the doctor said I can kill? HA! This should be interesting.” Kabuto said as he cracked his knuckles.

“A mutated Beetle…..​really?” Krieg deadpanned.

[I wouldn’t be calling him that if I were you.]

“Yeah whatever. I still can't take him seriously enough.” Krieg said. “But if he's a threat, I will take it seriously.

“Hey! Which one of you am I going to fight?!”

“I am.” Death Gun said.

“You? HA! You won’t last very long.”

“Oh...I will. Do not judge your opponents appearances weakling.” Death Gun said as he laughed darkly.

“Oh really? Then how about you show me how strong you are human?”

“Why don’t you look into my eyes and find out.” Death Gun said and revealed his skeleton mask.

“You expect me to be scared of that?” Kabuto said as he disappeared in a flash. “How sad.”

“How about you hit me with your best shot.” Death Gun offered.

“With pleasure.” He said as punched Death Gun in the face send him flying into a wall. Kabuto smiled evilly at his work and noticed Death Gun unscathed at all.

“That was your best shot...​pathetic. Even your grandmother can punched harder than that.” Death Gun said. “Or better yet, your mother.”

“Coming from the bag bones who can’t even fight back.” Kabuto said, still smiling evilly. “Face it, you have be scary looking, but you’re all talk.”

“If you think that way, why don't you use your ultimate form than.” Death Gun suggested.

“I don’t waste my energy on someone who’s all talk but no bark.”

“Oh fine...​if you don’t want to show me your ultimate form, I'll just have to kill you now.” Death Gun said with glee and takes out his Black Star Type 54.

“A gun? You’re gonna use a small little weapon on me?”

“Oh this is no ordinary weapon...​it's a cursed weapon. And you are on its kill list.” Death Gun said as he pointed his gun at Kabuto.

“Okay, I’ll humor you for once. Go ahead and shoot me if you can?”

“Oh I will.” Death Gun said and pulled the trigger. The pistol let’s out a loud bang as a small .45 bullet hits Kabuto’s chest and bounced off.

“Was that all? Tsh weak.”

“Hey, bone dude. Didn’t you say that gun can kill anyone with one hit?” Kaoru asked.

“Give it one second.” Death Gun answered.

“I'm going to crush you like a bu-” Kabuto stopped in mid sentence and clutched his chest in pain and coughed out blood.

Death Gun later started to laugh and walked towards Kabuto. “Surprised? This gun you see here is called a Black Star Type 54. Or as I would like to call it Death Gun. You see, the bullets doesn’t kills the victim, the curse does. When the bullet hits anything living, the victim soon suffers a series of heart attacks within thirty seconds. Most died within ten though…Let's see how long you last.”

“......​You real are a weakling.” Kabuto said as he punched Death Gun in the face sending him face first onto the floor. “You really think something like that is going to kill me?”

[If you haven’t heard, this is the house of evolution. Death from a gun like that is nothing compare to something like that. I was hoping you would be an interesting test dummy for Kabuto, but it seems I was wrong. Kabuto kill them.]

“So much for that plan.” Kaoru said as she summoned her kagune. “Any ideas mister big shot?”

“Let the boss handle it.” Krieg said.

“Yeah let him handle it. He's been holding back the entire time.” Smoke said. “Also, I'm very sure our boss is forgetting something important.” He looked at Death Gun as Kabuto punched him non-stop.

“What the matter bone head? Where’s that confident of you killing me go?” Kabuto continues to punch Death Gun even more. “I can keep this up till next Saturday.”

‘Wait next week is Saturday? Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday.’ Death Gun thought until a suddenly realise something important. “FFFFFF­FU­U­U­U­U­U­U­U­U­U­U­U­UC­C­C­C­C­C­C­C­C­CK­K­K­K­K­K­K­KKK” He yelled punching Kabuto in the face sending him through several walls. “I screwed up!!!!!”

In an instant, Death Gun takes out a Samsung Galaxy. “It's Pinkamena birthday and I forgot!” He shouted and search through the Internet for a restaurant. “Agilo Da French, Good enough. Gotta go now people! Take care of the rest while I’m gone!”

In an instant he disappeared with trail of smoke that heads up to the elevator shaft., causing him to stop for a moment.

“The hell are you yelling about?”

“I got a date with Pinkamena! She'll kill me if I don't make it in time!!!”

“......​Seriously?” Kaoru said. “You’re fighting a giant bug, and all you’re thinking about is your fucking date?!”

“Um...​he’s out cold ma’am.” Smoke said and gestured to Kabuto who is unconscious.

“You know for guy who’s supposed to be good at killing, you’re not very good at it Death Gun.”

“Well he is serious when he's in the job but when it comes to his personal life, he’s like that.” Krieg said.

“....​No comment. Anyway let’s just find the idiot in charge here and get some-.” Kaoru was cut off mid sentence as she felt her upper left body being torn off by something at extreme speed. “Thing?”

[Did you really think that little attack would keep him down? You all really must think lightly of Carnage Kabuto if you let your guard down like that?]

“W-What just happen-?” Kaoru didn’t get the chance to speak as she felt a fist from Kabuto, hit her in face and sent her flying into a wall.

“Hehehehe! What a weakling, it left like I was bunching a piece of paper.” Kabuto said as he cracked his neck. “Guess playing dead was worth it, if it meant doing that.”

“Well shit.” Smoke muttered.

“Hey, idiots.” Adagio said over their communicators. “What the hell is going? Why is Kaoru’s life signs going in the red?”

“We just encountered a over-sized mutated Beetle humanoid. Weapons are ineffective against it except Death Gun’s pistol.” Smoke said over the comms. “We need immediate evac.”

“If his gun the one that can kill, why is it still standing like nothing happen then? Some useful weapon that thing is if can go through something like that. Look just get Kaoru back to HQ, this mission is over.”

“There should be a teleporter installed into your base command center, use it. The Engineers will guide you through the instructions.” Smoke said

“We’re still trying to get the power going for it to work. Look just get Kaoru and make your way back outside. There’s a device on Kaoru’s wrist that will get you back here.”

“Roger that. Boss we got to get out of here.”

Death Gun looked at Smoke and nods.

“What makes you think I’ll let you escape worms?” Kabuto asked as he charged at the two ponies that were heading towards Kaoru.

Before Kabuto could reach them, a small crystal landed on chest and froze him into place.

“That will not hold him for long. Go now!” Death Gun said. Smoke pressed the device on Kaoru’s wrist thus teleported everyone out.

“Now then before anything else happens, you get your sorry ass back here to HQ as well. We need to have a little talk...​well mostly with Chrysalis. I’ll be busy trying to patch Kaoru up.”

(League of Vigilante Justice HQ…)

“YOU HAVE GOT TO THE MOST IDIOTIC, DUNDER HEADED, POOR EXCUSE FOR A SUPERHERO I HAVE EVER MET BEFORE IN MY LIFE!!!” Chrysalis yelled as her face begun to turn raging red. “And I’ve seen some that aren’t that poorly at being a hero or vigilante!”

“With all due respect ma’am, you sent us into uncharted territory with no information of the enemy.” Krieg retorted. “Be thankful we got out in time.”

“Your mission was to collect data on the place, not to get into a fight with some mutant beetle thing that looks like something from a rejected video game character!”

“You mean this information.” Smoke said as he showed Chrysalis a thumb drive.

“Yeah, yeah congratulation on getting it. I’m pissed at your leader for almost getting our rookie killed. From what Adagio told me of the damage, Kaoru is missing half of vital organs mainly the heart and her left lung. Almost all her bones are either shatter or broken, and not only that half of her brain is missing as well.” Chrysalis said as she took a seat at her desk. “If it wasn’t for Gremmy and that weird bracelet thing that cancels displaced human’s powers, Kaoru would’ve been dead by now.”

“I'm going to ask my boss to orbital bomb it.”

“Don’t bother, I sent Moondancer to see if they were still in the same place. From what she told me they pretty left somewhere else. Plus I wouldn’t do an orbital strike unless you every hero including Celestia and Luna to come after all of us. Plus Gremmy is still here and he wouldn’t like it.”

“Sigh, so any new assignments?” Krieg asked.

“Just do what you usually do. Go throughout the city and kill anypony that is committing a crime. Also bring the dead bodies here as well.”

“Yes ma’am.” Both Soldiers saluted and left the room.

“Also send your boss in here. I have a few words I would like to say to him.”

“Uh...​he’s here but in a shape of a pretzel because Pinkamena pop by.” Smoke said.

“Just get him in here before I screw up both of your molecular structures!” Chrysalis ordered as her hooves started to glow. “And I doubt you two don’t want to be mares for the rest of your lives?”

“I doubt so we will have a family of our own. We both were once terrorist and commit a sin we cannot forget.” Krieg said coldly.

“Does it look like I care about your past? Just go get the idiot.”

Later Death Gun entered the room but his body was bent and shaped into a pretzel which caused Chrysalis to look at him wide eye.

“Don’t ask.”

“You know I have to pretzel boy, what the hell happen to you?”

“Pinkamena happened.”

“You’re not being specific, what happened that made her do this to you?”

“I was late for our date.” Death Gun answered.

“What date?”

“It was her birthday and I forgot about it. But she found out and did this to me.”

“....I was gonna chew you out for almost getting Kaoru killed, but I think seeing you like this is punishment enough. What I don’t understand is how is it that you can take a punch to the face by a mutant beetle, but you marefriend can turn you into a pretzel?”

“I’m wearing an armor that is made of Starship metal, Vibranium, Orichalcum, Mythril, Adamantium and Grade S Titanium.” He explained. “That beetle uses Kinetic energy to punch so my armor absorb the energy and stores it for later use. But Pinkie is just Pinkie.”

“....​Fair point I guess.”

“Almost forgot, The Power Ponies are close to Kaoru’s trail.” Death Gun warned.

“Ugh, bucking Lance. It been a month and that idiot still hasn’t gotten that meeting with the Power Ponies on the way.”

“That's not all, heros from other parts are to searching for Kaoru.”

“....​That’s it I patients is running low, and right now I am tempting on have Eto unleash hell upon them...​But I can’t because Gremmy said that needs a little more time.”

“Also my men encountered a group of heroes that goes by the name Cutie Marks something. I can't remember the name.”

“Mother of Celestia what is it this time?”

“I said my men encountered a group of teenage heroes and got away but the Heroes got hospitalized after the encounter.” Death Gun said.

“.....​That’s it.” Chrysalis said as she got up from her seat. “Send a message to the members of the league and have them wait outside of The Power Ponies HQ.”

“I can’t. I'm a fucking pretzel and I can't reach for my communicator like this.” Death Gun said.

“Well go tell you marefriend to do it then, I’m going on ahead to have little talk with a certain lightning boy.”

“Have fun and take a couple of my men to escort you.”

“I said to go to your marefriend and have send a message to league.” Chrysalis said as she exit the room. “Now go.”

“Whatever.” He said as he exit the room only to find Pinkamena standing in front of him with her arms crossed. “Fuck…”
