Metro City Library - It's the middle of a terrible week for Metro City, hordes of gangs have stormed the once beautiful city streets and began to cause utter chaos wherever they can. Most of the gangs, however, seem to be hitting big, important, places. Places like the Metro City Police Station.... the Commercial District... City Hall...
But orders and the promise of big pay for being useful won't stop to buffoons in particular from causing their own version of chaos. Two men have decided to hit the library today, to break the law of silence and interrupt poor, helpless, nerdlings lost iin their studies! One of these men is wearing black jeans, a leather harness, and some manner of bondage mask. This man is lanky, adorning a weaponized metal claw on his left hand. A claw which is... dangerously close to his left eye right now as he stands idly in the entryway to the library. Picking his nose...
The other man, dressed in blue denim jeans and a long, brown, leather duster is waving his guns around and firing them into ceiling haphazardously. The last shot fired narrowly misses his own ten gallon hat. "Alriiiight! WOOOOO!" He hollers, kicking off a small bookhelf and startling the elderly librarian in the back of the lobby. The moment these shots are fired, everybody panics and begins to flee for the doors...
Unfortunately, this library isn't the home of Conan Librarian. And so enforcing the code of silence is up to perhaps the second most qualified sort of person for the job: a ninja.
A particularly caucasian-looking ninja, to be sure. One dressed in purple ninja pants and bikini top, with a purple veil covering the lower half of her face, black fingerless gloves and black tabi, with hair of a matching purple as well. What is such a kunoichi doing in the library? Well, currently, she's not in the library per se. She's actually in a ventilation shaft in the ceiling overhead, having been tracking the two hooligans raising a ruckus since before they entered the building.
The ninja girl manages to pop the vent cover out, causing it to fall down beside the gun-toting maniac with a metallic clatter. A moment later, the girl herself follows, snapping a foot out toward the cowboy's head as she drops down.
"NINJA KICK!"

...'Trip' meanwhile is still having a grand old time ejecting stray bullets into the ceiling uselessly while waving his guns around. Two overhead lights get shot out in the process, sending glass falling all over the floor. "YIIIIIIHAW!" He yells, kicking over a table on his way toward the middle of the library.
By now, pretty much everyone has fled, except for the rare few who thought it safer to hide behind the decor or the little old lady at the reception disk. It's hard to see, but she's hammering away at the security button beneath the desk whilst staring at him with eyes wide.
*click* *click* ... Suddenly, the cowboy's fun is over as he realizes only for the first time a revolver can only hold six bullets. He lowers the guns, rolling out the chambers with his thumbs, and stares into the emptiness. "Aw whut? What'd I do with my bullets..." Suddenly he just drops the guns on the table, and begins to pat himself down. ... That's when the vent drops to the floor loudly, causing to look up just in time tos ee the ninja. ... And he moves with surprising agility for someone with the brains of a cement block, stepping out of the way of the attack only to step in again as she lands and throws his shoulder into her. "Get outta 'ere! Ya weirdo!"
Meanwhile, the REAL weirdo in the back with the claw has taken notice. His thumb is suddenly removed from his nose... and he's running toward then oddly colored ninja woman from across the way. He then LEAPS and skids across the floor on his knees.... thrust that weapon claw for her midsection.

The masked ninja girl brings up a gloved arm to catch the claw as she slides back along the floor from the impact of the shoulder check, causing the blades to catch in the leather but only lightly graze her skin. As she defends herself, the ninja suddenly breaks into Haiku.
"A weirdo is found
Within mirror's reflection
Hat takes sudden flight"
With the last phrase she suddenly spins, launching herself into the air and swinging both legs in a double kick aimed for the cowboy's face, intended to knock him out from under his hat if successful.
"DANCING SPIDER!"

The cowboy, meanwhile, seems not at all amused by the Haiku. His arms come up, in an attempt to protect his face as the kick is thrown, and receive the majority of the blow. It isn't enough to knock him down, or even enough to knock off his hat, but it is enough to make him stumble back into the table his guns are presently on. "Damn it...!" He then quickly begins to pat himself down again, attempting to find and rechamber his bullets.
'Knives' meanwhile leaps into the air immediately after his claw stab is blocked, and rolls across the floor behind the purple maned ninja. Once there, he collects himself from the floor and dashes towards her frantically, and wordlessly, stabing claws downward continuously as he moves toward her.

The ninja tries to roll away from the claw-brandishing gimp, but ends up having one of her legs gashed in the process, cutting away part of the fabric of her pants. Stopping in a crouch, she says,
"Ninja seeks refuge
%TWord of safety forgotten
Cowboy takes tumble"
The last line is spoken as she tumbles toward the one with the guns. Upon reaching him, she attempts to plant both boots against his knees while still on her back, before sitting up and reaching to grab his arms, then attempting to roll back and flip him behind her with her feet.
"NINJA FLIP!"

...And the dumber than bricks cowboy is taken for a ride by the odd, haiku spouting, kunoichi as she plants her feet firmly upon his knees and seizes his arms before rolling him into a throw. The throw impacts his skull hard upon the ground, forcing him to drop his revolvers again and lose his ten gallon hat. "Unf!"
Going skidding back across the floor a few feet on his face, he suddenly falls over and impacts the ground painfully. Sitting up, a moment or so later, and rubbing his backside with his right hand... the mischievous dolt yells.. "HEY! Quit spoilin' mah fun!" ... and charges her, intending to hit her with a fully body tackle and then knock her to the ground. If he succeeds, he'll then leap at her and proceed to pound her with his fists!
The idiot with the claw, however, has decided to sit where he was previously... watching them go at it with an empty stare.

The purple-clad kunoichi has just risen to a crouch when the cowboy charges recklessly toward her. Too slow to avoid the tackle, she instead decides to roll with it, tumbling back along the floor along with the cowboy and colliding against a book shelf. She takes a couple of punches to the face before she can regain some measure of control.
"Fun spoils like eggs
Similarly yokel cracks
Breath smells of cow's dung"
She says quickly as she tucks her legs, positioning them between herself and her assailant, the stretching motion causing the slash in the fabric covering her legs to spread further, before she attempts to drive both feet into the cowboy and hopefully send him flying off of her.

...The cowboy, however, is ready for those kicks when they come... and stupidly wades into them... taking the full force of them against his frame. "You're gettin' to be a real pain in the ass, lady!" He yells, charging inwards despite the pain, attempting to bowl her over with his body and knock her to the ground whilst clutching his revolvers. What comes next is wild, and poorly executed, yet the effect is none the less devastating. The denim wearing gunslingers steps toward her and attempts to strike at her face with the butt of his gun whilst she's on the ground after the missed attack. The butt does NOT, in fact, find her face but her throat. Once it's there, however, he simply begins to bare down as hard as he can... taking advantage of the situation.
The bondage dungeon dweeling creeper with the claw suddenly becomes animated again at the sight of her hitting the ground and being strangled. Thinking to join the 'party', he proceeds to roll forward across the ground and leaping into the air as he approaches. He then takes a lunging stab for Caiomhe... and possibly the cowboy too.

Spider Ninja Girl starts to choke behind her mask as the butt of the revolver presses against her throat, cutting off her windpipe. To make matters worse, the vault guardian - er, BDSM enthusiast comes rolling in and manages to clip her in the side with his claws. The commotion does give her the moment she needs to free herself, though, and she does a quick jump to clamber up to the top of one of the nearby shelves before once more entering monologue mode.
"Hope grows darker
Blood stains upon white pages
Angry swarm takes flight"
And suddenly, in a move that may prove familiar to some viewers, a torrent of drug-laced throwing darts are sent streaming at the two thugs. Where they could have possibly come from on the increasingly scantily clad kunoichi's person is anybody's guess.
"NINJA DART HURRICANE ATTACK!"

...The cowboy, dumb though he may be, realizes what's going on when he sees that bondage creeper roll in out of the corner of his right eye. This prompts him to look up from his activities, allowing Caiomhe a moment to wriggle free, as his utterly strange and eerily silent companion draws back his claws. "..the f..." is all he manages to get out before he falls backward away from the downward claw strike, and grabs a nearby book. In less than a moment, the claw sheers through the hard cover of the book he blocks with. "The hell man...?!"
The break in the activity, caused both by 'Knives' claw being stuck in the book and the gunslinger's shock, allows the purple, scantily clad, 'kunoichi' to get off her dart toss and hit both fighters all over their bodies.
Suddenly, neither fighter is feeling all that well as the tranquilizer begins to set in almost imediately. "Wha... wha..." The gunslinger lazily looks at the darts protruding from his left arm in puzzlement. "H-How'd that... get there...?" He has also apparently been made even more stupid than he was before.
Despite this, both fighters do eventually look up at her again... some semblence of rememberencing appearing on the denim wearing fools face. "Fffff..." is all he manage, rolling over and out from under 'Knives' and aiming his revolvers at the would-be hero sloppily.
...And while the gun slinger is aiming to take fire, the claw wielding mute seems to have other ideas... leaping onto the table despite being full of tranquilizer and leaps at her... intending to cut her to ribbons even at risk of gunfire.
Where is security during all of this...? They may have already fled the building. Along with everyone else, including the librarian by now.

Tonight is not a good night to be this particular kunoichi's clothing. Not only are the scratches in the fabric a major issue, but the bloodstains are also becoming a problem. Both issues become decidedly worse when the gimp jumps on her, managing to cut her pants up even worse while also slashing her shoulder and thus destroying one of the strings of her top. The girl is frowning behind her mask at the predicament when a bullet suddenly whizzes past.
"Wardrobe malfunctions
Drycleaning shall be needed
Spider makes exit"
At least the distraction has given time for the civilians to clear out of the area. The ninja girl decides to take the shortest route to the door out - one that involves leaping from the bookshelf and springing off of the gunslinger's head with her tabi-clad feet.
"SAYONARA KICK!" she yells as she aims both feet at the man's head, intending to take him down as she heads for the door.

And the kick hits the drowsy cowboy pretty soundly, in his drugged up state. Her foot finds his forehead, smashing it against the ground and knocking the poor fool out cold. That ought to make him an easy catch for the police later when they inevitably come by.
The bondage fiend, however, is still alive and kicking... if slowly being dropped by the tranquilizer in his blood stream. That won't stop him from making one final attempt at an attack at the girl as she flees though.
Falling off the table with a loud thudding, he then scrambles to his feet and rushes after her. Then he attempts to... leap out and bite her on the ear and tackle her to the ground where he will attempt to cut her and her clothes to ribbons again sadistically without even saying a word!

Luckily for the would-be ninja heroine, the gimp isn't quick enough to grab hold of her as she makes her dash for the exit, sliding to one side to evade her pursuer's attack. Whipping around, she addresses her masked opponent as she reaches behind her back.
"Our romance cuts short
Failure to communicate
A gift of parting"
And then suddenly a second volley of darts of even more questionable origin is unleashed, dozens more of them all sailing toward the seemingly crazed claw wielder.

...And the ear bite misses entirely, the poor sod flopping in the doorway as she dashes out. Even for this utterly resilient fighter, the effects of the drugs she'd filled those darts with were beginning to take their toll. His vision was blurring, sound was becoming distorted, hell it was even becoming hard to tell which end was the ground anymore!
...But, despite this... he manages to pull himself from the ground again and chase her out into the busy street furiously. He continues to run at a blinding pace even after another flurry of darts impacts, causing him to stagger.
But, then, out of the blue... he changes up sides... turning his back toward her and running backwards! Then... he LEAPS into the air... curling himself into a ball and flies toward her... a veritable human buzzsaw!

Ninja Spider girl was most certainly not expecting the masked thug to be able to get back up after getting hit with another wave of those darts. She would have at least expected them to slow the creep down. But instead, he plows right into her as she's running down the street, cutting up her back and delivering the coup de grace to her modesty as the back of her ninja pants are shredded, revealing purple bikini bottoms underneath. Collapsing to her knees, she rolls onto her back, twisting her legs around as she tries to scramble down the road.
"World... fading... slowly...
Can only... talk like... Shatner...
Not... into... bondage..."
With a last surge of energy, she attempts to coil both feet as if she's about to kick him, but instead stamps down toward one of his toes.
"WOLF SPIDER DISTRACTION ART!"
Hopefully it's enough to distract the gimp from the headlights of the oncoming truck behind him, which the ninja girl plans on latching onto in a last attempt to escape...

...And the foot stomp, dazed and drugged as this poor fool is now, is successful. The pain causes him to emit the first sound he's made the entire fight that wasn't caused by movement or the metallic clanging of claws. It's a groan of pain.
Suddenly, the truck is speed up on him from behind... and the driver starts honking his horn madly in attempt to drive the weirdo out of the road. But at this point, sound barely even registers to him. So it is that the driver slams on his breaks, and the truck smashes into poor 'Knives's backside... his body getting tossed expediently to the curb where he crashes against a light post and finally goes limp.
Unfortunately, this means the driver of said truck isn't going anywhere at the moment... he'll likely have to get out and at least check to see if the guy is okay. This does mean, however, that the 'ninja' is safe for now and can make her way out of the area without fear of being assaulted again.
COMBATSYS: Knives has ended the fight here.
