"Help me! Help me get him down!" Cried Kick Ass try his best to lift Battle Guy from the noose around his neck.

Together they removed Battle Guy from the slipknot. 
Mindy knocked away what looked to be a girls scalp, in order to lay Battle Guy on the blood drenched  coffee table.

Crying, Dave began to try CPR.

"Dave its to late." Said Hit Girl, trying to ease him away.

"Stop he's not dead! He can't be! He just can't!" Cried Dave pushing Hit girl away, and continuing CPR.

Hit Girl stood there heart broken, as Kick Ass tried unsuccessfully to revive his dead friend.

Kick Ass pounded on Battle Guy's chest over, and over. Until it finally sunk in.
That his efforts were futile.

Kick Ass had just slid to the ground, and buried his face in his lap, when suddenly a phone in Battle Guys pocket began to ring. Kick ass rushed to dig it out.

"Hello." Answered Kick Ass.

"I feel for you Dave, but it had to be done." Said a Warm voice.

"I really hope you have nine lives, because I want to kill you more then once! " screamed Kick Ass into the phone.

"Dave your making me blush."laughed Murder  Kitten."Oh Davey you'll get your chance."

Dave threw the phone against the wall,  shattering it into several pieces.

"Shots were fired threw this window."  Said Hit Girl.

"What? How do you know that?" Asked Kick Ass.

"Look at these bullet holes. How they aline perfectly with the broken window. Plus the window is broken inwards. Look how the glass is spread across the carpet ." Said Hit Girl digging out a bullet from the wall with the tip of her knife.

"That doesn't make any sense. If she started by firing threw this window, why wouldn't they just take cover?  Then  carefully
make their way out of the apartment?"

"Someone has to be helping her." Said Hit Girl examining the bullet.

"Are you trying to tell me
there's more than one of those crazy bitches running around out there?"

"That might be a good thing." Said Hit Girl placing the bullet into her pocket. "Maybe this other person isn't as careful as Murder Kitten. Quick fallow me."

Hit Girl darted out of the apartment, and down the stairs.

Kick Ass fallowed her across the street, and up the fire escape to the next building.
Once on the roof  they began to search for anything left behind by the shooter.

To their amazement there was a pink piece of paper, held down by a single bullet.

Hit girl quickly picked it up, and began to read aloud.

"Justice comes in many forms. Yet, I  find it hard to see justice in what we are doing here today.  I stand by my convictions to rid the world of evil, but I fear I may have become what I set out to destroy.   
Murder Kitten has become judge and executioner. And, I have blindly followed her do to her gift. Given to her by the very people we set out to destroy. But, she becomes less herself every day. She has lost sight of humanity. She kills with out any sign of remorse.  I fear I have lost my best friend, to this Murder Kitten alter ego. Whom only becomes more frighting with every passing day.
This is the last time I put on my mask, and attempt to justify my actions. I cannot stop Murder Kitten,  nor will I try. I hope to move on with my life, and become just another face in the world, but if you seek me out and kill me, I wouldn't blame you. I would want revenge for my friends as well.
I do not see this letter as betrayal to my childhood friend. For I have lost her long ago.  This letter and information is my way of trying to gain at least a shred of my  identity back.

You can find Murder Kitten at an abandon building on 5th And Juncture.
Be warned, She is not to be underestimated. She has an armory in there, and she's not afraid to die for what she believes is to be right.
I hope we never cross paths again, and for what its worth. I hope she doesn't kill you, but she probably will.

Signed Dead Kitten-no more"

Hit Girl looked up from the letter to see Kick Ass pulling back on his mask.

"Let's kill this bitch!"
