As the assassin girl held the weapon against my forehead, I could feel the cold steel pressing against my skin. Her eyes bore into mine, filled with a mix of intensity and curiosity. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the night air carried a sense of tension and uncertainty.
"Oh, my, did you enjoy yourself? How was it?" I asked with a smirk.
"Answer me, or else, I will put a bullet in your head," The assassin girl's voice was filled with a chilling determination, her finger tightening on the trigger of the gun.
"Ah! That would be difficult," I said.
As soon as I finished speaking, a sudden kick threw the assassin girl away from me. She vaulted over and regained her balance.
"And you are?" The assassin girl asked.
The woman who had just intervened had a striking appearance. Her short white hair framed a face that exuded confidence and poise. Her piercing gray eyes seemed to hold a depth of experience, reflecting a hardened resolve. She stood at a height of around 5'9" to 6', her physique lean and athletic.
"I am Alex," I replied, keeping my guard up as I assessed the situation. "And you are?"
The woman smirked, her gaze unwavering. "Call me Christie. Consider me... interested in your little rendezvous here."
I raised an eyebrow, intrigued by her presence and her apparent knowledge of the situation. "Well, Christie, it seems you've interrupted us at an interesting moment. Care to shed some light on why you are defending me?"
Christie's smirk widened, a glint of amusement in her eyes. "Oh, I would love to, but where's the fun in that? Let's just say I have my reasons for being here, and for now, you're a part of my game."
"Our intel says Donovan's little slut died in that explosion..." The assassin girl taunted. "I guess, I need to make sure the intel stays that way... which means, you have to die for me before I kill that scum."
"Oh! Karina, my sweetheart, you will try..." Christie chuckled, seemingly amused and unfazed by the assassin girl's words, "I am sure, you will try your best... so, I will play with you. Until you break!"
Now this is interesting. Two beautiful girls... about to fight each other. I feel like I am some extras.
"So, your name is Karina, huh?" I said as I sat up, "That's a beautiful name. But, I guess I won't interfere in your matters. Go on, be my guest, fight, kill each other."
"That's what I will do without you saying," Karina's eyes narrowed. "But don't think you're off the hook either, Alex. For what you did to me, I will bury you fifty feet under the ground. After her, it's your turn."
Christie chuckled, a wicked glimmer in her eyes. "Oh, I wouldn't have it any other way. Let's see how long it takes to break you, Karina."
Karina wasted no time, launching herself at Christie.

[Target 1: Christie]
Their battle took them across the beach, the sand kicked up in whirlwinds as their powers clashed. The moonlight cast dramatic shadows, highlighting the lethal grace and intensity of their movements. Their skills were evenly matched, each refusing to back down or yield an inch.
Amidst the fight, brief exchanges of words echoed through the night air, their voices filled with determination and grit.
"You're quick, but not quick enough!" Christie taunted, her voice laced with a sadistic edge.
"We will see about that!" Karina's voice rang out, filled with unwavering resolve. She dodged Christie's attack and tried to lunge and grapple her left arm.
Karina's swift movements allowed her to close the distance between herself and Christie, aiming to grapple her left arm. But Christie's agility and mastery of she-quan martial arts came into play as she expertly twisted her body, evading Karina's attempt and countering with a swift elbow strike to Karina's side.
Karina gritted her teeth, feeling the impact of Christie's strike but refusing to be deterred. She quickly adjusted her stance, using her hyper speed to launch a barrage of punches and kicks. Her fists and feet moved like a blur, each strike aimed with precision and intent.
As the intense battle between Christie and Karina unfolded, the moonlit beach became a stage for their display of skill and determination. Their movements were a symphony of precision and agility, each strike and dodge executed with calculated grace.
Christie's mastery of she-quan martial arts allowed her to seamlessly transition between defensive maneuvers and swift, powerful attacks. Her limbs flowed with a fluidity that seemed almost unnatural, evading Karina's strikes with ease while countering with devastating precision.
Karina, fueled by her awakened powers and her expertise in close-quarters combat, unleashed a relentless assault. Her punches and kicks were lightning-fast, fueled by her super strength, aiming to overwhelm Christie with sheer force. But the assassin girl proved to be an elusive target, her body twisting and contorting with astonishing flexibility, evading each strike with calculated precision.
"Got ya!" Christie attacked, finding an opening in Karina's defense, with her fingers, aiming at her throat.
[Bang!] [Bang!] As Karina jumped back, she swiftly aimed her gun and fired two bullets towards Christie.
Christie smirked, her gray eyes gleaming with sadistic amusement. "Is that the best you can do, Karina? You'll have to try harder than that to land a hit on me."
The bullets whizzed through the air, but Christie was ready. With a quick movement of her hand, she conjured an air vortex, creating a swirling gust to deflect the bullets off their original path.
Karina smirked, "Are you sure about that? Fazing activate!"
As the bullet passed through the air vortex, Christie's eyes widened in surprise. She hadn't expected Karina's ability to phase through objects and was about to strike her chest. I can't allow that to happen. Such a dangerous beauty... It would be such a waste.
I used my red aura to deflect the bullets out of the way. And as the bullets swayed from their original paths, the look Karina gave me... Man, it was like that saying- Looks can kill.
Christie's momentary lapse in focus allowed Karina to capitalize on the opening.
Karina, taking advantage of the element of surprise, closed the distance between them in an instant. With a swift and powerful punch, she struck Christie squarely in the jaw, sending her flying backward. The force of the blow combined with Karina's super strength caused Christie to crash into a nearby rock formation, leaving a visible dent in its surface.
Christie's eyes narrowed, a mixture of shock and anger flickering across her face as she slowly regained her composure. She coughed out blood and wiped a trickle of blood from the corner of her mouth, a wicked grin forming on her lips.
