EDWARD'S NEW DEAL.
1774, NOVEMBER 28th, MONDAY 12:50 am.
A flaming blimp fell towards MoveCity's newest building. A dozen mimes jumped out of the burning aircraft, prismatic energy surrounded them, and gliders were created. They swarmed like wasps around the machine gun fire that originated from the impending crash site.
On the building's rooftop, a giant steel rose was created. The thirty-foot-tall faux-flower was picked up by a woman in a bunny suit and used like a giant mallet. It slammed into the blimp and smashed it to the ground. Prismatic energy surrounded the mimes – they launched missiles towards her.
She dodged as a man dressed in full plate mail with bunny ears appeared and created a sword as long as his body. He sliced a missile; a rabbit samurai emerged and cut the second. The rockets flew past the duo and exploded behind them.
The hare-themed trio assembled and the woman whistled. More of her long-eared gang emerged from the adjacent alleyways as plenty of mimes fell from the sky to oppose them. Both factions preparing for excessive violence. Another normal day in MoveCity.
Edward's grin widened as he walked, unnoticed, through the chaos.
He approached the giant TV in the middle of the desert city. His smile widened as a portal of darkness appeared before him. He stepped inside and teleported to the top of the gargantuan, electronic screen.
Sitting on the edge of the television was a man who wore a realistic heart mask. He twirled a knife between blood-covered fingers. Aside from his face covering, and silver hair, what stood out most about him was his hands. Both index fingers had an extra knuckle.
"Ssssssso incredible," the masked man said. "What happenssssss due to the death of a ssssssingle clown."
Edward's smile grew in the most inhuman of ways.
"Silver Silence. Master assassin," he chuckled. "Killing the boss of the Mad Mime Manics AND tricking them into thinking it was the Bunny Bravery Squad. All without a single person noticing. It's soooo impressive."
The masked man stood up.
"Thissss world is full of liesss," he said. "I detessst new onesss."
Edward's laugh teetered on monstrous. Faster than lightning, a knife slammed hilt-deep between his eyes. The president of DeathTech continued to laugh as the blade sank into his skull like quicksand. It vanished into his head.
Gold ichor dripped out of Edward's wound before it sealed shut.
"Do you know whoooo I am, Silver?"
Like his name, the assassin stayed silent. Prismatic energy surrounded the man – he became invisible.
